Spending the currency of Time wisely “T-factor”
Time is life and can be likened to currency because it must be accounted for wisely. The labourer receives his wages according to the time invested on the work or assigned role or duty. Also we calculate age based on the number of years lived and each year is based on the number of days (365 or 366 days) make (One year or Leap year, having and additional year) The days can be broken down to hours (24hours) make one day. Each hour is 60 minutes and each minute is 60 seconds.
Having done this calculation, it is therefore very clear to all that “Time is Life” and as such we can refer to it as Currency.
Therefore, what we do with the “minutest”
of the time factor determines how far we can go particularly in achieving our goals and ultimately fulfilling our divine purpose as God ordained for every individual He created.
Now that we know how important the time we have all been given is, we must make conscious efforts and be intentional about spending time wisely.
Avoid procrastinating and embrace prompt response to the needful, so that you can enjoy the blessings or benefits God Has reserved in Heaven and will ultimately be deposited in our earthly account.
Whatever we need to do, we must do it quickly,‘particularly “Soul winning” because our times are in God’s hands. He decides what to do, who to keep and how we should utilize the time.
Nuggets
T-1: Time. Everyone has been given the same time (24hours) a day. We must therefore use it accordingly. No one has more time than the other. Therefore, we must stop making excuses and simply ask God for grace when needful. In the parable of the talent, the one who refused to use the talent that he was given tried to give a good excuse, but Jesus did not endorse it.
T-2: Thanksgiving. While waiting for answers to your prayers, give God quality thanksgiving, worship and praise. You can never praise God in vain, because while you are praising Him openly, He is working behind the scene and perfecting every good work concerning your life. Paul and Silas in Acts 16:25 is a practical example. King Jehoshaphat and the nations that contended with him is also a good example.
T-3: Talents: Your talents will be best utilized when you follow divine timing and divine instructions. Take heed and use time wisely because “Time is not yours”

“Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.’ “But his Lord answered and said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents.” Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭24‬-‭28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,” Ephesians‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ NKJV.
