Procrastination

How many of you needed to do something yesterday but you found every excuse possible to put it off till today.  If i had a nickel for every time I had done this I would be rich.  For me its dusting the house.  How many times have you told someone you would pray for them and then you put it off and then just totally forgot.  That can be a serious problem for the person needing that prayer if God was waiting for you to be a faithful servant.  We can't procrastinate in choosing to serve the Lord.  Joshua 24:15  And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the God which your Father served that were on the other side of the flood, or the Gods of the Amorites, in who's land ye dwell; but as for me and my house we will serve the Lord. 

What would happen if God procrastinated?  You need surgery today, but He don't have time to hear prayers for you today, would you want to go under the knife?  How would that feel to know He just don't have time for you?  Maybe its your mom or dad in need of Gods help, will you trust the doctor without being able to go to God, to only be told sorry i don't have time today.  Well Praise God you don't have to do that for see God doesn't put your life at risk by procrastinating.  How do i know this, well His Holy word tells me  Habakkuk 2:3  For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it shall speak, and not lie; thought it tarry' wait for it because it will surely come, It will not tarry.

Is today your day to accept Jesus into your heart, or will you put that off too.  No one can procrastinate forever.

Revelation 10:6  tells us time be be no longer.  Don't putt off today what you should do today, for it is your life that is at stake.

Jesus loves you, today, tomorrow and always.  Love yourself and give your heart to God.
