Tithe your time to God

Honor the Lord with your possessions, And with the firstfruits of all your increase; So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine. - Proverbs 3:9-10

While these verses speak about tithing your possessions, we can infer we can tithe our time to God as well. The word of God tells us our days can be prolonged. One principle I know is that when we tithe our time to God, our days are lengthened. It seems like we have more than twenty hours in a day or more things are been accomplished before the end of a day.

There is no specific length of time with respect to tithing our time to God. Personally, I would spend time in the word before I start my day. For some of us, it may be just a few minutes when we are seated on our "great white throne" going about our daily routing. For some of us, it may be that few minutes while we are making our way to the office. Some of us may be spending time in the word when there are pockets of time when we are free. Or it may just be reading the daily devotional when you start your day.

Regardless of the timings and the amount of time we spend to tithe to God, just tithe your time to God, be it spending time in His presence or in His word. When we spend time with God, our souls are being nourished. We experience His love for us all over again. We feel His embrace once again. We are made conscious of the sacrificial work of Jesus Christ at the cross and see the perfection of that work at the cross.

With one single act by Christ Jesus at the cross, all our sins are forgiven. We are made the righteousness of God in Christ. All our needs and wants shall be met by Christ Jesus. When the presence of God is strong in our lives, we know He is doing mighty thing behind the scene to turn all things for our good. Our lives are been redeemed by Christ Jesus.

This redemption includes redemption of our time, including the time from the past. God is able to turn our past for our good. We may not be able to understand and comprehend how God is able to do that but can just simply believe Him and put our trust in Him! The bible tells us to believe God while the understanding may come later.

Spend time in the word and meditate on your rhema word for the day and see good success in your every endeavor. That's the promise of God for His word will never come back to Him void. Hallelujah!
