Now Is The Day Of Our Salvation


For He saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2
On the day that we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to make Jesus the Lord of your lives, that became the day of our salvation.
Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking under the power and influence of the [Holy] Spirit of God can [ever] say, Jesus be cursed! And no one can [really] say, Jesus is [my] Lord, except by and under the power and influence of the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:3
The Truth is that our salvation is for today, it is not just for when you get to Heaven, it is for right now. The Truth is that right now we are saved. This is the very moment, this is the very time of our salvation. That is an awesome Truth, and when we are empowered to realize that we don’t have to wait for our salvation, or earn it over time, there is a godly peace and joy that totally consumes and empowers us. This knowledge of the Truth allows us to be used fully by our Father to further His Kingdom! Our Father’s Truth set’s us free and through His peace that passes all understanding, and through His love that passes knowledge, we can enjoy and live completely in the Truth. We can eternally live in the Truth that our salvation is never ending and it is for each one of us who have Jesus as Lord!
I want to show you an absolute scripture here. Because there are a lot of people who believe that we can lose our salvation. The Bible tells us plainly that we cannot.
For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable. [He never withdraws them when once they are given, and He does not change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call.] Romans 11:29
The Truth is that we are saved now and we are saved eternally. Our Father doesn’t give us a new life and then take it from us. Salvation is a gift and our Father never withdraws His gifts once He gives them. We cannot fool God into giving us eternal life and then throw it back in His face. He knows the beginning and the end, so He knows who and what we are, before we ever are. The Truth is that our Father actually chose us before we ever were. He gave us a new life even with knowing all of our weaknesses; none of them mattered though,  He still chose us.
But when He, Who had chosen and set me apart [even] before I was born and had called me by His grace (His undeserved favor and blessing), saw fit and was pleased. Galatians 1:15
So right now, not tomorrow we are saved, and we are eternally saved. Our salvation will never leave us!
