The Right Time (2)

Search for the word “time” or “right time” in the Bible and you’ll come up with instructions about speaking, working, blessing, and even worship.  There are promises about God lifting us up at the right time if we surrender to him and giving us the help we need when we bring personal requests to Him.  God knows our times and our seasons.  At just the right time, God is available and willing to act on our behalf and respond to us, when our lives are offered in grateful service to Him.

Everyone enjoys a fitting reply; it is wonderful to say the right thing at the right time! (Proverbs 15:23 NLT)

So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. (Galatians 6:9 NLT)

“You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but on the seventh day you must stop working, even during the seasons of plowing and harvest.  (Exodus 34:21 NLT)

Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. (John 4:23 NIV)

Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. (2 Timothy 4:2 NIV) 

So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.  (1 Peter 5:6 NLT)

Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:16 NIV)
