BSee then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore, do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.Ephesians 5:15-17
This word “circumspectly” the term means “accurately or precisely with great care.” We can find its meaning by what Jesus spoke of on the Sermon on the mount, “Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Matthew 7:14) To live morally is to live wisely. Biblically, a “fool” is not so named because of intellectual limits, but because of unbelief in God, and His Word. Especially as to it’s warning of judgment of sin. He or she live apart from God and against God’s laws The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction (Proverbs 1:7) and they can’t comprehend the truth, or their true heart condition before a holy God. Believers are no longer walking in this way, and if need be, should remind themselves to evaluate their own walk from time to time. Redeeming the time—The Greek word for “time” denotes a fixed, measured, allocated season; with the definite article “the,” it likely refers to one’s lifetime on earth as a believer. We are to make the most of our time in the midst of all that is evil being produced by the world fulfilling God’s purposes, and using every opportunity for worshipful service unto Jesus, meaning the work of our hands to glorify Him in the short span of time lived here, then after this life is over, for all eternity in His presence.
Understand what the will of God is—Knowing and understanding God’s will through His Word is spiritual wisdom. For example, God’s will revealed to us is: That people should be saved from their sins (1 Timothy 2:3-4), Be Spirit- filled (Ephesians 5:18), Be sanctified {set apart for the Lord} (1Thessalonians 4:3),This what Jesus models for us in the gospels.
As Christians today, we face situations in our daily lives that are conscience tester’s. They help us to see whether we are serious about our walk with the Lord. Knowing that our choices will have good or bad consequences. And to some extent we show what Christ is like through our perseverence and character.
Beloved friend, your willingness to be taught by God’s Word pays dividends that are far reaching into the lives of loved ones as blessings of faith and wisdom are being rewarded by God.
May the Lord bless your walk.
