Listen

I’m not sure who this message is for, but whoever it is, I pray that you receive it in Jesus Name…

You are looking for God to do something big, to be loud, to make Himself known in a strong way, but He is saying, “Hear me My child I am speaking to you. The gentile whispers that have been flowing across your heart is My voice. I AM giving you the answer. It might not be in the way you thought, but it is in My perfect way. Be still and listen, hear my voice, and act accordingly.”

Sometimes we pray and pray and pray and look for God to come in a certain way because of what we want, but we can’t do that. We have to be open to God in any way He might come, and be ready to hear anything He might speak. Sometimes it is hard when we don’t understand why He comes in the way He comes, or why He says or does certain things. We don’t always understand when His answer is no, instead of the yes we long for, but know this, He ALWAYS has our best interests at heart. He knows us better then we know ourselves, and He knows what we need. Allow yourself to go before God today and say, “Here I am Lord, I’m open, willing, and ready to hear your voice, and whatever you have to say.”

1 Kings 19:11-12 (NIV)

¹¹ The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” 

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. ¹² After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. 

God bless!
