No Time to Delay: The Call to Act Quickly in God’s Service

 "… see that you do it quickly.” However, the Levites did not do it quickly.'' -2 Chronicles 24:5

In the work of God, there is often a need to hurry; working quickly is a necessity. The Levites were tasked with repairing God’s house, but their mistake was not doing it promptly. The Bible commands us to wait and not to hurry in many matters, but not in the work of God. Procrastination, indifference, and lack of enthusiasm are unacceptable.

Procrastination can become a bad habit. Laziness is not always the cause; sometimes, the reason is poor planning, taking on too many tasks at once, misplaced priorities, or setting unrealistic goals. I often find myself doing that. Tasks should be divided into manageable parts, but we must never procrastinate in completing them.
