ORDER YOUR LIFE—First Time By Pastor Robby Bradford

(Psalm 90:12) Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

TIME

(Ephesians 5:15-17) Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.

Observations about Time

  • ✓  Our most valuable asset is time.
  • ✓  We cannot manage time. We can only realize opportunities.
  • ✓  We cannot do everything.
  • ✓  Investing small amounts of time in certain activities over a long period has

    cumulative value.

  • ✓  Decide what is important and then manage that decision daily.

    FIRST TIME

    1. Livetoberenewed.
    (2 Corinthians 4:16) Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting

    away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
    (Mark 2:27) Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the

    Sabbath.”
    2. Live for reward.

    (Ecclesiastes 1:14) I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

    (1 Timothy 6:18-19) Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

(Luke 21:34) Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing,

drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a

trap.

3. Live for relationships.
(Hebrews 10:25) Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing,

but let us encourage one another–and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

BOTTOM LINE: Order first things first and give focus and energy to the things that are eternal.
