Answering the Call: Embracing Salvation, Study, Sanctification, and Service

 

 The Universe Is Calling (2 Corinthians 6:2)

“For the Lord 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.” – 2 Corinthians 6:2

God is always calling. In life, when someone calls your phone, you might send them to voicemail, reply

"Sunrise over mountains representing spiritual awakening"

with a quick text, or forward the call to someone else. But when God is calling, you cannot ignore it. You can't forward it, mute it, or send it to voicemail. You must answer.

The universe is calling. God is speaking to us through the world’s events, through personal trials, through divine whispers. He is calling. The question is: will you answer?

1. God Is Calling You to Salvation

Now is the time of salvation. Now is the moment to wake up to who you truly are—God’s beloved, made in His image and likeness. You are a unique, unrepeatable expression of the Divine.

God is calling you to understand this truth and receive His salvation, not tomorrow, not next year—but now.

2. God Is Calling You to Study

“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” – 2 Timothy 2:15

In a world full of distractions, it’s time to scroll less and study more. Jesus said, “Take my yoke upon you and learn of me.” After salvation, God calls us to learn. Read the Word. Meditate on it. Teach it. Live it. Let your mind be renewed daily.

3. God Is Calling You to Sanctification

Sanctification means being set apart. It means saying "yes" to God and sometimes "no" to people, places, and things that hinder your spiritual growth. It's not about judgment; it's about alignment with God's purpose for your life.

Let go of what is obsolete, worn out, and no longer serves your divine purpose. Embrace more prayer, more worship, and more thanksgiving. God is shaping you into the best version of yourself.

4. God Is Calling You to Serve

“I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink... Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these, you did for me.” – Matthew 25:35-40

God’s call is not just internal—it’s outward. He calls you to serve. To feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the sick and imprisoned. Jesus Himself came not to be served, but to serve. If we want to follow Him, we must serve with love and humility.

How Will You Respond?

The call is constant. The invitation is personal. The response is yours. Will you say “yes”? Will you rise to the call of salvation, study, sanctification, and service? Because what God has called you to do—no one else can do.

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...

The Sacred Sunday Posture:  Kneeling “ A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees; if you are willing, you can make me clean (Mark 1:40).” In addition to bowing your heads and closing your eyes, many people learn to “get on your knees and pray.” Often, it’s at night before going to sleep. Parents instruct their children to kneel on the side of the bed and say their prayers. Perhaps you have fond memories of kneeling and reciting the Lord’s Prayer or the 23 rd Psalm. Or maybe you were taught, like me, “Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake. I pray the Lord, my soul, to take. God bless mommy, daddy...” Kneeling is a physical way to revere God as your Creator and remember that God is your Source. “Know that it is the Lord, who is God. It is he that has made us and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture (Psalm 100:3).” Without reverencing and ...

Where Is the Love? Learning to Recognize God's Presence Through Galatians 5

  Where Is the Love?    One of my favorite duets is by Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack: "Where Is the Love?" It asks, "Where is the love that you said you would give to me?" It's a timeless question and one that’s just as spiritually relevant today.    In Galatians 5 , Paul writes to the churches in Galatia about the contrast between the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit. He helps believers understand how to discern what’s truly of God. And here's the spiritual compass: love is God's signature . "And envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God."   Galatians 5:21 (KSB)    Whatever you do whether it’s cooking a meal or making a major decision ask yourself: "Where is the love?" Is love your motive? Is love present in your tone, your actions, your intentions?  Paul’s letter urges us to determine whether we are operati...
