MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE

​

​

A REAL POPULAR PHRASE WE HAVE ALL HEARD SAYS, GET A LIFE. TODAY I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET A LIFE THAT IS FULL OF GOD’S BLESSINGS AND REWARDS. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE LIFE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN IN GOD AND WHAT A GREAT LIFE IT IS. IF I WERE TO ASK YOU WHAT IS IT THAT YOU WANT OUT OF LIFE, WHAT WOULD YOU TELL ME? I BELIEVE MOST OF US WANT A RICH AND REWARDING LIFE THAT EXPERIENCES FULFILLMENT IN MANY WAYS. IS YOUR LIFE ONE THAT YOU ARE HAPPY AND CONTENT WITH OR ARE YOU LOOKING FOR SOMETHING MORE THAN WHAT YOU HAVE. ARE YOU MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE THAT GOD HAS GIVEN TO YOU BY MAKING IT COUNT FOR SOMETHING OR ARE YOU SIMPLY SPINNING YOUR WHEELS IN FRUSTRATION AND DISCONTENTMENT?

​

JAMES 4: 13-15

​

IN ALL REALITY WE REALLY HAVE VERY LITTLE TIME TO MAKE OUR LIVES COUNT FOR SOMETHING. DOES YOUR WORLD MAKE SENSE TO YOU OR DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME ACCOMPLISHING VERY LITTLE?

​

  • YOU CAN HAVE A FULL AND REWARDING LIFE.

 

I BELIEVE MOST OF US HAVE AN INBORN NEED OF REALLY DESIRING TO BE USEFUL. WE ALL SEARCH FOR THE MEANING OF OUR EXISTENCE. WE HAVE A NEED TO KNOW THAT THERE IS PURPOSE IN WHAT WE DO. WE WANT TO FEEL LIKE WE REALLY ARE NEEDED AND THAT THE TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES THAT WE PERFORM IN LIFE ARE IMPORTANT AND NECESSARY AND THAT THEY COUNT FOR SOMETHING. ARE YOU HAPPY WITH YOUR LIFE? GOD HAS PROMISED US A FULL AND REWARDING LIFE WITH EXCITEMENT AND PURPOSE.

​

PSALMS 16: 11

​

JOHN 10: 10

​

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT GOD IS ABLE TO HELP YOU MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE WITH RICH REWARDS?

​

  • ARE YOU TRULY WALKING IN THE MOST THAT GOD HAS FOR YOU?

  • WHAT ABOUT YOUR SERVICE TO GOD AND THE CHURCH?

  • ARE YOU MAKNG YOUR LIFE COUNT IN THE THINGS THAT YOU ARE INVOLVED IN?                                                          

    • WHAT IS NEEDED FOR A RICH & REWARDING LIFE.

 

  1. YOU MUST HAVE A SENSE OF PURPOSE AND DESTINY.

 

PROVERBS 29: 18

 

2 TIMOTHY 1: 9

 

A LIFE WITHOUT PURPOSE WILL CAUSE US TO CHASE MANY ENDLESS RAINBOWS THAT ONLY BRING DISSATISFACTION, HEARTACHE, A SENSE OF FAILURE, EMPTINESS AND A SENSE OF TOTAL WORTHLESSNESS.

​

  • KING SOLOMON CAME UP WITH THIS CONCLUSION.

 

ECCLESIASTES 2: 10-11

​

WHEN SOLOMON LOST SIGHT OF GOD’S PURPOSE, THE THINGS IN HIS LIFE BECAME WORTHLESS.

​

WE MUST LOOK TO GOD’S PURPOSE IN ALL THAT WE DO. WE MUST SEE THE THINGS THAT WE DO AS GOD GIVEN TASKS UNDERSTANDING THAT GOD WANTS US TO WORK OUT HIS PURPOSE IN OUR LIVES NO MATTER WHAT IT IS WE ARE INVOLVED IN.

​

ECCLESIASTES 3: 9-13

​

2.FIND CONTENTMENT IN WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

 

PHILIPPIANS 4: 11-13

​

1 TIMOTHY 6: 6-8

​

ARE YOU CONTENT WITH YOUR LIFE TODAY?  ARE YOU LOOKING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE?

​

HEBREWS 13: 5-6

​

WE MUST HUMBLE OURSELVES AND ACCEPT GOD’S PLACEMENT FOR OUR LIVES AND THEN ALLOW HIM TO EXALT US IN DUE TIME.

​

JAMES 4: 10

​

3.  WE MUST EVALUATE OUR PRIORITIES FROM TIME TO TIME.

 

PROVERBS 23: 4-5

​

BEING RICH IS NOT NECESSARILY THAT WHICH IDENTIFIES WITH MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE.

​

  • ARE YOU BEARING FRUIT IN THE KINGDOM?

  • ARE YOU LIVING PEACEABLY WITH EVERONE AND GROWING IN THE LORD?

 

CLOSING

​

WE NEED TO ASK OURSELVES, WHY AM I NOT MAKING THE MOST OF MY LIFE? ARE MY PRIORITIES OUT OF ORDER? AM I PUTTING MORE TIME AND ENERGY INTO THOSE AREAS THAT ARE OF VERY LITTLE CONSEQUENCE? SHOULD I BE PUTTING MORE TIME INTO MY FAMILY AND SERVICE TO GOD?

​

PROVERBS 21: 5
