7. Use Your Time to Walk Worthy in Jesus Christ
Romans 13:11-14
11And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
 12The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
 13Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
 14But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
