Sometimes, we can miss important deadlines. Prize contests limit the time available for entry. Product rebates generally have an expiration date. The amount of time for filing legal documents is often restricted. Missing these deadlines can mean missing out on prizes, compensation, and other benefits.
II Corinthians 5:2 says, “For he says, ‘In a favorable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I have helped you.’ Behold, now is the favorable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” We shouldn’t delay coming to God, asking for what we need, especially when that need is to be forgiven and saved. God always listens to us, but the right time to ask is now.
