SPEAK OH LORD

Post date: Jun 14, 2012 4:31:54 AM

It is amazing to know that even in these days of extra busy human beings in all professions; God still makes time to speak to His people before and after any incident. He is not the kind of God who will wait until we have fallen and are completely messed up before speaking to direct and to correct us. He is not the kind who waits until we are in a ditch before stretching out His arms to get us out or send a help. He is not the type that waits until we consult Him before revealing Himself and His plans for us, though that is often necessary. He is the God that is available 24/7 for anyone who will dare to ask and go to Him for anything

Did you know that God speaks to you every day as He did in the time of old? The problem is not God speaking to us, but we having the time to hear, and when we hear, spending time to seek understanding and preparing ourselves appropriately to faithfully carry out the words we hear accurately. In every situation and at every moment in time, irrespective of the circumstances, God is not waiting to console anyone, but is waiting and willing to lead anyone who will give his or her ears and hearts in absolute agreement with Him. You do not have to earn any spiritual or Christian ceremonial title of any type before you know that God is speaking to you, He speaks to everyone, saints and sinners alike, using every means He feels appropriate that you will hear. It is left for you thereafter to either accept it and seek proper understanding or do whatever you like with the words.

Paul said His words are powerful and capable of descending hidden spiritual and physical things. “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piecing to the division of souls and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart. And no creature is hidden from His sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him whom we must give account.” Hebrews 4:12-13

Every word from God is intended to give life, peace, success, wealth, liberation and direction. When you examine His words with these six criteria, you will surely begin seeing the beaming light into understanding of what He is saying to you. This is because there is nothing hidden in every sphere before Him irrespective of the circumstances, location, severity and personality

David said God’s word is a lamp unto his feet. Did you know that God can keep you from every type of harm through His words? It is not what others do against you that concerns God most, it is what you do with His instructions that concern Him most. David deliberately decided to orders his steps according to God’s words. This is the reason for His action.

“Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path. I have promised it once, and I’ll promise it again; I will obey your righteous regulations. I have suffered much, O Lord, restore my life again as you promised. Lord, accept my offering of praise, and teach me your regulations. My life constantly hangs in the balance, but I will not stop obeying your instructions. The wicked have set their traps for me, but I will not turn from your commandments. Your laws are my treasure; they are my heart’s delight. I am determined to keep your decrees to the very end” Psalms 119:105-112

What you do with God’s word can have a lasting and rewarding effect in your life. It has the inherent power to preserve you in every situation and preserve everything else that is connected to you. The first intent of sending His word is to give life, the second is to preserve the life, the third is to multiply and proper that life, the forth is to defend that life till the end. And the fifth is to glorify that life before men on earth. It is your turn to be glorified, follow His words. More than anyone else, God is committed to your safety and is quite able to do just that.
