TIMING IS EVERYTHING(Ecclesiastes 3:1-11)

- God’s time is perfect time- God is a God of Timing.

- HE appointed time for everything- HE set a time for every event under

heaven.- HE has made everything appropriate

in its time.

I. UNDERSTAND GOD’S TIMING FOR YOUR LIFE

“Timing w/o action is cowardice. Action w/o timing is suicidal. Timing with action is strategic.”- to accomplish something significant, you must first see something significant.

II. TIMING IS EVERYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO GOD’S PLAN FOR OUR LIVES

• God will not expand our influence for HIS Kingdom until we first learn to be faithful over little.

• God has to shape & prepare us as a Potter prepares a vessel

• We must become what God wants us to become before we can do what He wants us to do.

• Make sure our personal relationship w/ HIM is growing & deepening.

III. BENEFITS OF UNDERSTANDING GOD’S TIME FOR YOUR LIFE

• Our lives become more effective;• More enjoyable;• Less stressful; and• Become more honoring to GOD

- EXAMPLE: LIFE OF ESTHER (Chapter 4)She is in the right place; at the right

time.

•CONCLUSION: GOD brought us in this place

for such a time as this. Listen closely to HIM & let HIM use those around us as an instrument of GOD to move/push us forward.

When we listen to HIS instruction & follow His lead - - we can have the biggest impact on the lives of those around us.

•CHALLENGE: IF GOD IS CALLING YOU TO DO

SOMETHING, HE IS SUFFICIENT TO ACCOMPLISH IT THROUGH YOU!

TELL GOD YOU WANT TO BE EFFECTIVE FOR HIS KINGDOM; THAT YOU WANT TO DO HIS WILL
