IS YOUR GOING TO CHURCH EVERY DAY PRODUCING FRUITS?
Everything you see is not made out of people. Everything you see is made out of time and from time. Everything is a product of time. The house you live in is a product of time. That fridge in your kitchen is a product of time. That furniture in your house is a product of time. That cloth you are putting on is a product of time. You as a person are a product of time. Your child is a product of time. Your work is a product of time. Your income is a product of time. Your food is a product of time. Life indeed is made up of time.
Even God could not do anything without time. That is why the first creation is not light. The first creation is not the heavens and the earth. The first thing God created was time. And that’s why it is recorded in the Bible in Genesis 1:1 that “in the beginning…” That statement ‘in the beginning,’ connotes time. This statement tells us that everything started with time. So before anything came to fruition there was the beginning.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Gen 1:1 (NIV)
God created time before he could create light. God created time before he could create day and night. He created time before any other thing.
The next word after ‘in the beginning’ is ‘God.’ This shows that when God had time, he had everything. And I want to bring this good news to you today that you too can be like God on earth. In fact, the bible calls us gods already.
I have said, Ye are gods, and all of you are children of the most High. Psalm 82:6
You can create every tangible thing in your life out of the wealth of time. And that also means, if you have time, you can become anything. And if everyone on earth has the same amount of time, then no one is better than you. And there is nothing you cannot become if you have the wealth of time and convert it.
The key to maximizing time is Conversion. Time must be converted. It is only when time is converted that everything else comes out of it.
Some people think that because they go to church every day or every week and try to do something there. They think that they are serving God. But where is the product? Where is the result? Aren’t you making God a liar? Aren’t you making God a covenant breaker? Aren’t you making God appear unfaithful to His word?
Because if you, that is called by His name have nothing to show for it, what then is the essence of God’s investment in you? Listen closely; there is a great difference between activity and conversion. Certainly, if you truly convert time, a product should come out of it.
God knows what to do with time. The first day He created so many things, similarly the second, third and fourth days. God is productive with every second. He is productive with every day. He makes everything new every day. God is the master of time. He creates things every day. God does not trivialize time.
Please and please, if your going to church every day is not producing fruits, if you cannot see results or fruits; it means God does not own your life. Do not be deceived any further. God does not trivialize time. He knows the value of time. He knows that the conversion of your time will bring Him more glory.
