James 4:13-17 {13} Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: {14} Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For what [is] your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. {15} For that ye [ought] to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. {16} But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil. {17} Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth [it] not, to him it is sin.

My life as a vanishing vapour Michael l. riddle

Today, Remember who is really in control Not me! These men forgot that (js. 4:13) Proverbs 16:9 Jeremiah 10:23 Luke 12:16-21 God is in control Luke 12:22-34 Mt. 6:25-34

Today, Acknowledge the lord The men of James 4 failed to acknowledge god in their plans Ought to have said, “If the lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that” (Js. 4:15) Proverbs 3:6 – “in all thy ways acknowledge him…)

Today, live in the present For we know not what a day may bring forth (Prov. 27:1) Paul’s Example in Phil. 3 Forgetting those things behind Reaching forth to the things which are before Phil. 1:19-26 – the result of living this way Redeem the time – Eph. 5:15-17

Today, do what the lord wills Christ example of doing the lord’s will – Mt. 26:36-46 The wise man hears and obeys – Luke 6:46-49 Seek first the kingdom – Matt. 6:33

Today, do what is right without procrastinating It is a sin not to do good when we know to – James 4:17 Doing what is right requires more than words – James 2:15- 16 Don’t wait until tomorrow! – Prov. 3:27-28 We don’t know if we will have another opportunity to: Teach others (Mk. 16:15-16) Study God’s Word (2 Tim. 2:15) Be an example (Mt. 5:13-16) Encourage others (1 Thess. 5:11) Obey the gospel (Acts 22:16)

My life as a vanishing vapour Our days are as a shadow that passeth away (Ps. 144:4) Today we should: Remember who is really in control Acknowledge the lord Live in the present Do what the lord wills Do what is right without procrastinating
