TIMELY SALVATION
God created and implemented a salvation plan exclusively for you before the foundations of the earth were established. God loves you so much that He planned and predestined His timely salvation plan for you through His Son, Your Savior, Jesus Christ.
John 3:16 NIV For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
In Christ we are redeemed through His powerful blood. The Blood of Jesus Christ, our Savior, paid for the penalty of our sins and resulted in the forgiveness of our sins in accordance with the riches of His grace which He lavishes on us.
Ephesians 1:3-11 NIV Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ. In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,
If you didn’t know already, you are a part of God’s will and family, set apart, chosen, and claimed by God as His very own. You were chosen by God before you ever thought about needing a savior, deliverer, redeemer, and shepherd. God had you covered and established His redemptive plan for your life by and through His loving grace and mercy. By accepting Jesus Christ as your LORD and Savior, receiving His loving gift of salvation, following Him, aiming to continuously align and live a life that purposefully targets to obey God’s will, word, and way, you are faithfully and actively walking in God’s salvation plan for your life as a believer.
You are special in God’s sight and He has a dynamic plan and purpose for you, but you must receive by faith His free loving gift of salvation established exclusively for you. God knew every aspect and outcome of your life before one of them even came to be and loved you enough to send His one and only son to die for your sins so that you will be saved and have eternal life if you believe in Him. Don’t entertain the thoughts that you are unlovable, unforgivable, or unsaveable, because God came through for you already in timely salvation!
Psalm 139:13-16 NIV For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
What a powerful, awesome, and loving Father we serve that prepared for our beginning, present, and eternal destiny. Receive all of God’s promises for your life today, because God’s timely salvation is available for you for every area and aspect of your life. Jesus’ blood has already redeemed you. It’s time to believe, receive, and possess the promises and inheritance our heavenly Father has bestowed on us.
God always comes through on time for you. Faithfully obey His instructions, develop in His training, and receive His loving gift of salvation as you triumph in victory, wisdom, and encouragement.
