Are you convicted about this?

I am.. I will admit that the Lord convicted me today about this and if it brings conviction to you please pray for me and I'll pray for you that we will change our habits. Did you know that in 2009 the average person spent 4 hours and 40 minutes on Facebook a month but in 2010 the figure has risen to 6 hours.

Facebook has almost reached 1 billion users. Take 1 Billion people x 6 hours / 365 days divided by 24 hours and every hour there are 684931 people on Facebook.

685,000 people per hour per day telling the world about their private lives, playing Farmville and Lord only knows what else..

Can you imagine if all those people spent just one hour of the 6 they spend on Facebook reading the Word of God or praying faithfully what could happen to this world?

I honestly don't know how long I spend on Facebook but from now on I am going to pay attention to it and make sure that my time talking to God is longer than my time reading about every body else's lives.

How about you? Are you willing to examine your time and see if God is first over Facebook or any of the other social networking applications?

On a positive note about Facebook I can say that I pray more for other people than ever before. When I see a friend asking for prayer I stop and pray at that moment so in turn the enemy is using it to consume peoples time but if used correctly it will back fire on him and more people will be prayed for than ever before.

I think the bottom line for me is conviction to examine my time daily. Not just Facebook but all things. How much time is God getting compared to other things/

Let this be a conviction to you to examine your life and make changes if needed or to simply increase your time with God each and every day.

Be blessed and challenged today.

He made you just to fellowship with you not to watch you fellowship with everyone else..
