“For he says, ‘In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.’ I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:2, NIV)
Importance of Timing
In life, timing is everything. Whether it’s catching a flight, meeting a deadline, or taking advantage of an opportunity, the right timing can make all the difference.
The same is true in our spiritual lives. God’s timing is perfect, and he invites us to embrace it.
Time of God’s Favor
The apostle Paul reminds us that there is a specific time when God’s favor is poured out. It’s not a constant or indefinite period, but a specific moment when God’s grace and salvation are available in abundance.
This “time of favor” is a window of opportunity that we must recognize and seize.
Urgency of the Present
Paul’s message is clear: now is the time of God’s favor.
The day of salvation is upon us, and we must respond with a sense of urgency. Too often, we postpone or delay our response to God’s call, thinking that there will always be more time.
But the truth is, we don’t know how long this window of opportunity will remain open.
Embracing the Present
Rather than postponing or delaying, we must embrace the present moment and respond to God’s invitation of grace and salvation.
This means putting aside our excuses, our hesitations, and our distractions, and focusing our hearts and minds on the One who loves us and desires our eternal well-being.
