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Let go of what is obsolete, worn out, and no longer serves your divine purpose.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.

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
