Daily Devotional for Saturday January 26, 2002

A Time for Everything

(Ecclesiastes 3:1)

The bible tells us there is a time and season for everything. I believe that. I believe that more every day as I come into the offices of Liveprayer.com. I have never been more convinced that the time for this ministry is NOW. In the first few hours after opening our Liveprayer.com Miracle Center www.liveprayer.com, I received two emails from people who, for the first time, really put their faith on the line and trusted God, then saw God work a miracle in their life. For one it was in a marriage 3 days from divorce court. The other had been told by their doctor there was only 20% chance of surgery helping them overcome a crippling injury. WITHOUT surgery, this person is getting around better than in the last 10 years. From our Daily Devotional, I read every single day how God is moving in the lives of people as they turn to Him in their time of need. This world is lost, hurting, and so many are without any hope.

God has given us this incredible vehicle on the Internet to touch lives. I have no doubt in my heart and mind that the season for Liveprayer.com is NOW. I am aggressively moving forward with plans to expand our outreach to touch more and more people every single day. I am one that believes our Lord can come at any second. I want to not only be found faithful serving Him at that moment, but want to help as many as I can be prepared when He returns. I tell you this because the time is now in your life as well! It is time for you to quit being so passive and start getting aggressive in serving God. It is time NOW to stop playing both sides of the fence. Many of you want to serve God, but you can't let go of the world. Jesus said you can't serve two masters. Trust me, you can't. I tried for many years. God is telling you today to get busy, quit playing games, and start serving Him now.

THE TIME IS NOW!!!

I love you, and I care about you. I could tell you about many wonderful and pleasant things today. I could paint all kind of pleasing images for you to dwell on. But today, God is telling me to share with you that the time is now. You must quit taking your Christian responsibilities so lightly because there is not much time left. It is late afternoon and the night is coming. The return of Christ is imminent. We MUST be busy without compromise. I am going to leave you with these simple words and this simple admonition for our Lord. THE TIME IS NOW. GET BUSY!!!
