Take Hold of the Sword of Time

본문 .



Scripture: 

Joshua 10:12-14

12 On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel: “Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.” 13 So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. 14 There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the Lord listened to a human being. Surely the Lord was fighting for Israel!

Ephesians 5:16

16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.

 

 

Hallelujah!

I bid you the love of the everlasting Holy Father God and the peace of the Holy Son Jesus.


In the physical world, when you do something, you need to complete it within a limited amount of time. When people in the flesh work they only have a short time because they have to complete it within a limited amount of time. In other words, if they lose the opportune time that they need in order to complete something by getting involved in something else, they will end in failure. The almighty God set a certain time for human beings and made them complete what they had to do on time.


If you lose time, no matter how much skill, strength, power, and help from others you may have, and even if all kinds of conditions are met, you will be unable even to start it and you will become a loser. To succeed and triumph, human beings must have ‘a resource called time’ and the ‘skill to use that time.’ If you fail to take hold of the sword of time, you will fail in all things.


The sword is power, strength, and authority. Therefore, it displays the power to win. ‘The sword of time’ is the handle of victory.


If you lose the sword of time to Satan and end up spending time on what you like to do, you will fail in all things and eventually kneel down to Satan.


There is not a single person in the world who lost ‘time’ and triumphed. You have to take hold of ‘the sword of time’ and succeed in conquering time.


Look at the Olympic games. Whether in swimming or a relay race, they fight for even ‘a second.’ They again split ‘that second’ and calculate it down to a hundredth of a second. Ultimately, the one who reduces their time the best wears a gold medal around their neck, don’t they? Soccer, volleyball, and various other ball games also have a set time and the players must achieve victory within that time.


Likewise, in living your life, if you want to gain the victory of life you must grab the sword called ‘time.’
