Everyone who is aiming at success in
this world must learn how to redeem the time. You need to know that you are a
timed being. There is appointed time for each vision and destiny (Ecclesiastics
3:1). One serious business of the enemy against the destiny of men is to make people
miss their time. That is, to disallow your destiny from manifesting at the
right time. He knows that by doing this, many visions and dreams could be made
of no effect. But the Bible teaches us the wisdom of redeeming the time.
To redeem the time means to buy the lost
time back. To refuel in strength for the achievement of your vision in your
mind and start to work towards it afresh. It is to disallow situations and
circumstantial challenges from hindering you. How do you do this? Refuse to see
yourself as a loser (1 John 5:4). Refuse to dwell in your past failures.
Observe what has been stopping you in the past. It could be character and
attitude or material things, and try to lay it aside (Hebrews 12:1). Refuse to
lose the memory of your vision (Genesis 40:14). List down your challenges and
encourage yourself to face them. Redress and reorganise yourself to succeed.
Find out the promises of the word of God for your success and victory. Then
build a new hope and faith in God. Having done these, you will see yourself doing
what they said you cannot do again.
Friend, you can still go back to
school. You can still embark on that business. You can still get that contract.
Do not say it is over. Your age is not a barrier. Rekindle the fire of your
vision and organise yourself to achieve it. Then you will be surprised by the
help of God. You can make it and you will make it in Jesus name!
Prayer: Lord, help me to rekindle
the fire of my vision.
“IT IS NOT OVER UNTIL IT’S OVER”
