Now is the Day of Salvation

When I checked my work calendar, I saw I had nothing booked for next week.  The Holy Spirit reminded me that what appears to be empty space is filled with His presence. Therefore, I should never look for my supply in the past or in the future. Everything I need is available now in God.

"Now is the day of salvation." (2 Corinthians 6: 2)

There are times when God will inspire you to take the necessary practical steps.

For instance, I needed a cover and screen protector for my phone. I was inspired to go to this shop to get them. It took a while for the shop owner to find the right cover for my phone. When it came to the screen protector, again, he couldn't find one. I suggested that I just buy the cover, but he insisted that he had one in stock. He soon found one that was right for my phone.

God reminded me that just as the shop owner didn't want to lose my business opportunity so is the moment of now.

A few hours later, I received an email from my agency about work opportunities for next week. I applied and got booked for three days. 

I believe everything we need - blessings, breakthrough, favours, forgiveness, healing, joy, love, miracles, opportunities, protection, supply - is available now.

Now is the day of salvation.

God is now. ❤️

Obedience

Before the children's show I was working on started, my colleagues and I were in the foyer welcoming parents and their kids, directing them to the theatre and showing others where to park their buggies.  I noticed one colleague was speaking to this man.  She told us the man said after he gave his Bible to a homeless man, God told him to come to this arts centre and get a Bible.   Why would God send him to an arts centre that specialises in music, drama and dance? I suggested he could download a Bible app, if he needed instant access to a Bible. I even recommended an app I use, but  the man was adamant that God had told him to get a Bible at this arts centre. While my colleague continued to chat to the man, I focused on welcoming guests to the arts centre. Finally I saw the man holding a Bible. Apparently, my colleague always carries a Bible with her which she has been studying. As she was speaking to the man she was inspired to give him her Bible. We were all am...

The Cross is My Landmark - Revisited

This post was previously posted on my previous blog . ----- "Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." Galatians 3; 13-14 ---- While I was walking at Regent's Park, I could see BT Tower in the distance, which I used as my landmark to guide me to where I was headed. I know I'm headed in the wrong direction if I can no longer see any part of the BT Tower. It got me thinking of the cross that Jesus was crucified on. I believe the cross is a landmark that reminds me of the price Jesus's crucifixion paid for all humanity for all time. If I am ever feeling"lost" physically, emotionally or spiritually,, all I need to do is either think of the cross or look at a representation of the cross and I'm back on track. Thank you, ...
