Ephesians 5:16
Redeeming the time, because the days are evil
Redeeming the time, because the days are evil
What does it mean to redeem the time? We have 24 hours in a day, and much of that time is spent doing things to keep our bodies alive and functioning. We work to buy food and provide shelter over our heads. We sleep, eat, and socialize with those around us. We who love God know that we need to take time alone with God and have a quiet time to pray, meditate, cultivate a relationship with our Creator. There is no time to waste with things that are meaningless. As it was in the days of the Apostles, so it is today. The days are evil and sin and wickedness abounds. What is good is now evil, what is evil is called good. We are living in perilous times, our nation is at another crossroad. It has turned away from the commandments of God and has made a new law. A law that makes evil good and degrades anyone who stands for God’s word. Redeeming the time is to take time to pray and call on God to deliver us from evil, because the days are evil.
