THE TIME OF GOD'S FAVOR
There is a season and a time for everything under the sun. You’ve heard the quote, “Make hay while the sun shines,” I believe this is true and how life works. In John chapter 5, the story of Jesus healing a disabled man was first prefaced by this statement: "At certain times an angel of the Lord would go down into the pool and stir up the water, and whoever stepped in first after the stirring of the water was healed of whatever disease he had.” (Jn 5:4)TD Jakes once said, “The scariest thing I’ve ever thought of is the possibility of missing my time.” When God is moving, it’s best to jump in and go with everything you have!
But I pray to you, Lord, in the time of your favor; in your great love, O God, answer me with your sure salvation. (Psalm 69:13)
2 Corinthians 6:1-2 As God's fellow workers we urge you not to receive God's grace in vain.
2 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.
When the water is being stirred is when we must jump in! There is a stirring going on! God is moving in our land and is wanting to live his extraordinary life through us! Right now is the time of God’s favor! God is talking to you, calling your name, so that you will not miss the time of his favor. He needs you to believe him! If you will only believe, he will be able to fulfill his purpose in you. Listen to what the angel of the LORD said to Zechariah the prophet; “Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty."
We are in the day of God’s favor! Now is the accepted time! Use this pivotal opportunity that is before you! Now is the time to position your whole life to fulfill the purposes of God on this earth! Let go and trust him completely! Believing God will give you the power to go all out! Go ahead…Jump…It’s Time! This is…
