Everybody wants a magic pill or a secret formula to get the most out of life. The truth is that it comes down to just a few simple things - but first we gotta wake up, pay attention and look at our watch————

3 Biggies
Eph. 5
14So it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” 15Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Redeem the time… we just talked about the power of redemption, but this is a new insight to what it means. Remember redemption is not just getting back what was taken from you, but getting even more… being purchased to be set free in order to gain all that God has for you.
so we are to redeem the time. What are the 3 key components of our time?
Sleep, Health/nutrition and spiritual walk
What does verse 13 say? Wake up!
Poor sleep
use a C-Pap if you have too, cut out caffeine, wear an light blinder to block out light for sleep, sleep in a different bed if you partner keeps you up, buy a better mattress, a better pillow or kick the dog out of the room… but sleep
Reasons Why Sleep Is Important
- Reason 1: Helps brain function.
- Reason 2: Keeps emotions in check.
- Reason 3: Reduces disease risk.
- Reason 4: Keeps weight under control.
- Direct correlation to your strength
Pay attention to how you walk - be wise
Overweight….
Im not talking nutrition. You can eat lard everyday and if it helps you keep your weight down that will be of better benefit than eating well and being overweight. The simple benefit of being lean is of far greater benefit to your health than eating healthy. Get what Im saying??? Stay lean regardless of what you eat to do it… lean with muscle, not skinny fat. (more on that at a later date) but to have nutrient dense food and eat healthy but still be over weight is far more dangerous than eating junk food and staying lean.
Anxiety, depression, poor self esteem
Bad brain health -slows cognitive thinking
Can cause early dementia
Sleep apnea, high blood pressure and pre-diabetic
3rd but most important in redeeming is the time… where am I going with this?
Bad faith.
Notice I did not say not enough faith or reading and praying… yes that is a necessity but unless you have the right faith to activate the word of God in your life its simply filling up your car with gas every day and never running the engine.
We waste so much time with bad faith.
How many people in todays world simply read and pray only in an attempt to tap into an energy or a faith that they want simply for their own desires, goals and gifting. We read and pray to know God, and to make him known PERIOD. Does he want to be a part of our successes and trophy’s? Sure, but that is the side bar to what he really wants… he wants us obedient and busy making disciples.
I don’t have faith in me or my goals or dreams or future plans… Do I have goals, dreams and future plans- of course. But my faith is active and alive through his spoken word in my heart that I obey.
Bad faith is simply applying Gods principles to your priorities over Gods.
I hope this is enough to chew on today and until tomorrow Keep slaying giants.
