Today! God wants to use you today! Our lives consist of the sum of the time that we have since we are born until we die. Life is the sum of seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, and years that God allows us to live. What we do with that time is our responsibility. My advice? Don't leave for tomorrow what you should do today. God says that today is the day for salvation. And why not tomorrow? because you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Maybe tomorrow you won't be alive.
The Bible says: "If you hear His voice today, do not harden your heart." God wants you to enjoy His plentiful, abundant, blessed life today. If you are not a Christian and you are reading this, please consider seriously that only Jesus Christ can forgive your sins: 1st John 1:9 says that "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." Only Jesus can save you: Act 4:12 says "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." If you are a Christian, live each minute intensionally for Him, do everything with purpose, with passion for God. Don't waste your life in futile, idle things.
Start today with what you have; don't wait until tomorrow to serve the Lord. Don't say: "when I learn more, then I will do or say or teach." I'm impressed with the fact that Christians in the first century, didn't even have the complete Bible, but they accomplished a lot more in only one century than modern Christianity with the complete revelation of God's Word, all the Christian literature, and all the technology. God needs you today. The abundance or the lack abundance you have, offer it to Him today. I'm not saying only material possessions, but everything, your intellect, your talents, your time, your life; maybe a word of encouragement for someone, a phone call, a visit, a prayer...
"Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain." 1st Corinthians 15:58
