Time is Currency To The Eternal
What makes “it” early or late?
An engrained (taught) philosophy that has generated an operating system of understanding (point-of-view). A perspective or an applied time “zone” through an understanding of perspective. Could it be an opinion of “late or early” through the physical location in which you view or have an opinion from (lawful perspective).
We travel through time and space. Time is a gift that God has given each of us to do with as we choose. Not neglecting that He has entrusted each of us with an assignment. We will be held accountable (through review) of the time in which we spent it. Time is currency to the eternal. Our time will be judged by the One who graciously gave it.
God is Love.“God so loved the world, He gave... So that (purpose, promise, outcome) whoever believes (receives by faith) will not perish, but have eternal (everlasting) life.” (John 3:16). Not everlasting time, but life. Eternal means, lasting or existing forever, without end or beginning. What we do with our time, is the key to access eternal glory! For we are positioned here from eternity, passing through time, with and into His glory!
Time def: the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole. A point of time.
Don’t miss the word “progress” and God as the “whole”. We are to make progress within ourselves by;
Renewing Our Mind - Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is —his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2 NIV , (“Then” meaning, after we strengthen (practice/train/reset) our mind / “God’s will is” meaning for us individually and as a whole)
Taking Every Thought Captive - We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10 AMP
Allowing Him To Purifying Us - And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns. Philippians 1:6 NLT
Our inner, affects our outer. This is why God wants us to be focused on our posture with Him & not comparing ourselves to others (world). Greater is our impact for His kingdom under obedience through Holy fear of God, than a slight fear of opinion from man (people).
Einstein stated “time is an illusion”. I believe the Holy Spirit revealed to him the depth of, 2 Peter 3:8 NLT “But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day.” (WOW!)
Early or Late is a “point of view”. Where is the '“pin point” from your opinion, belief and understanding? Is it rooted in the Word (everlasting) or in the world (time).
Perspective def: the art of drawing solid objects on a two-dimensional surface so as to give the right impression of their height, width, depth and position in-relation to each other when viewed from a particular point (In Relation To Eachother – Comparison)
Two-dimensional: having or appearing to have length and breadth but no depth / lacking depth or substance: superficial (no depth, not thorough, appearing to be true or real only until examined more closely
Jesus spoke in the fourth dimensional realm (by faith through obedience), which is full completion. Operating completely in alignment with His heavenly Father. “For I and the Father are one” John 10:30 ESV. If our perspective is rooted in the world, we operate from the “two-dimensional perspective” (which has no depth outside of deception, which we could then say, has no depth at all).
We can connect the investigation of “two dimension” to "John 8:32 ESV “and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” revealing that the “world’s perspective" (two dimensional) never had authoritative power. We do, but have to locate it (wisdom) through grace (by faith) and the living Word of God which then is ignited in us, once we receive His grace, by accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior. The Holy Spirit now lives within us, strengthening us and aligning us with our Heavenly Father, just as Jesus. “For He raised us up together with Him [when we believed], and seated us with Him in the heavenly places, [because we are] in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 2:6
We are commanded (not asked) to “see” through the Word (spirit realm, fourth dimension, complete). When we take every one of our thoughts captive, according to the Word of God, our “operating system” is generated (re-programmed) through our perspective in which we are creating by the “Word of Design” (God) through the Power of the Holy Spirit (Christ Jesus).
“So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.” ESV
“So teach us to number our days, That we may cultivate and bring to You a heart of wisdom.” AMP
“Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.” NLT
“So teach us to number our days, That we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” KJV
Psalm 90:12

P.S. Our God has a sense of humor. He woke me up this morning at 2am, giving me downloads to write this piece on “time” :)
