Ephesians 5:16 (NLT2)
Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.

Never leave for tomorrow that which you can do today is a great proverb that pushes us to take initiative and advantage of time.
I’ll do it tomorrow! A procrastination tool so many of us use to avoid or put off doing what needs doing.
When we conduct an obligation that should be done as quickly as possible, we gain time that grants us the advantage of doing hundreds of other things without putting them off.
Redeeming the time—buying up those moments which others seem to throw away; steadily improving every present moment, that we may, in some measure, regain the time we have lost.
Let time be your chief commodity.
The problem with procrastination is that the option to do whatever it is that’s being put off may no longer exist.
Procrastination is what we refer formally to tomorrow, tomorrow never comes. This is the willful act of delaying doing something that needs doing. While the word itself is not in the Bible, we can find some principles to help guide us.
Time, once spent, productively or unproductive can never be regained. We all put off doing certain things.
We think; “I’ll do it tomorrow.” Going to the dentist, sorting out the cupboards, learning something new and more. Pain or discomfort, fear of failure or simple laziness may make us put things off, but Proverbs 15:9 encourages commitment, with prompt action but condemn laziness.
We make good plans and have every intention of keeping them but find ourselves getting distracted and sidestepping those plans, we put off to tomorrow, tomorrow which never come.
We procrastinate in every area of our lives. I can’t count the times I have planned something and either end up not doing it or doing it later than intended because I kept putting off; tomorrow, tomorrow which never comes. I should follow the instruction in Proverbs 16:3.
We must not procrastinate when it comes to sharing the gospel with the lost. There is no time to waste. Jesus likened evangelistic efforts to a man inviting people to a great banquet. As he sent out his servants with the invitations, he said, “Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame” in Luke 14:21. The most striking quality of the invitation is its openness ( everyone was invited) and the urgency (the call to the lost must be quick).
If we are honest with ourselves, we will admit to feeling uncomfortable with our time stewardship. We want to use our time wisely, but when we look back, we feel remorse for the times we wasted.
Procrastination is a form of self-sabotage, in other words, procrastination undermines our attempts to accomplish our plans and goals and to accomplish all that the Lord has planned for us in Jeremiah 29:11.
Procrastination is a destroyer of blessings. It can rob you of self-confidence, reliability, and personal peace. Proverbs 18:9 says procrastinators damage not only themselves but those who work or depend on their contribution to something. Stop putting things off. Get on with it for tomorrow, tomorrow may never come.
Shalom
