The Bible says that now is the time of God’s favour, now is the day of salvation (2 Cor 6:2) Today is all we have and we need to be wise with our time (“Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.” Eph 5:15-16) I’ve just discovered this song by Phil Wickham which says it so much better than I can!

“The battle line is drawn, it’s all in black and white.
Hope is pulling forward, can feel it from behind, it’s time.
It’s time to make a move, so what will you decide?
The clock is ticking on, don’t let it pass you by, it’s time.
It’s time.

The time is now for lifting souls.
The time is now, for letting go.
From your skin, to your core.
Let light, and love, come rushing through the door.
Oh, come rushing through the door.

You’ve learned every song, memorised the verse,
Took the bread and wine, and even bought the shirt,
It’s time.
It’s time to hold your shield,
It’s time to draw your sword,
Let’s be the resistance,
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, it’s time.
Yeah it’s time.

The time is now, for lifting souls.
The time is now, for letting go.
From your skin, to your core.
Let light, and love, come rushing through the door.

It’s time to make a stand, so put your heart in greater hands,
From your skin, to your core,
Let light, and love, come rushing through the door.

Sisters, Brothers, thieves, and lovers,
Come uncover eternity.
Turn your faces from finite places,
Heaven’s grace will set you free.

The time is now, for lifting souls.
The time is now, for letting go.
From your skin, to your core.
Let light, and love, come rushing through the door.

It’s time to make a stand, to put your heart in greater hands,
From your skin, to your core,
Let light, and love, come rushing through the door.
Oh, come rushing through the door…” (‘The Time Is Now’, Phil Wickham)
