Now is the Time


What is Faith... it sounds like a noun but acts like a verb. Faith is an action word. I love what the scripture says about faith according to Hebrews 12, "now faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen". 

That alone lets you know that Faith is a right now word, present word, and it will work for whatever you need right now. 


Now is the time, right now. So whatever you're going to do for God, family or even country for that matter, needs to be done right now with a sense of urgency.

Remember the old sage who said, don't put off for tomorrow what you could do today". How many life long dreams and goal been put off by that old familiar friend called procrastination? 


With all his wisdom Solomon said there is no praise in the grave, we need to get in a hurry and be about our Father's business. Faith is right now!


This is the place, what place? The place that you're in right now is the exact place that God has you in because He's the one that prepared it from the beginning of the foundation of the world. 


Jesus said, I will never leave you or forsake you, I am with you always." It's true that God has a time for everything, but we have to wait so that our time becomes synchronized with God's never ending, eternal time table. When we learn how to trust in the Lord and wait on his timing those things that we so easily fret about in life disappear and no longer trouble us.

We are Gods' people and God needs YOU.  Whenever God got ready to do anything, he always looked for a man or woman who would hear his voice and obey him. All throughout scripture and even more so today, God is looking for somebody who will say yes to His will. 


You may think the Lord can't use you because your life is so messed up, but I say for every reason or excuse you give or reason you think God can't use you, those are the very reasons that He will. God wants to take all the broken pieces of your life and mend them back together with His extraordinary love and all he wants from you is Faith. Now Faith!
