Dear Beloved,
We are needy people. We need your presence -Lord.
Early will I seek you
Psalms 63:1
O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
Seek the Lord as the deer panteth for the waters
Moses said – If your presence doesnot go with us, We will go no where
Exodus 33:14-16
And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.
I will sing of the goodness of God. Our God is a good God and a good Father. When you ask for bread, will he give you a stone.
Matthew 6:26
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
The more you ask of spiritual things the more he shall add unto you. I donot want to be led by flesh, but by the Spirit of God.
May you experience the continuous flow of the goodness of God. You are receiving the flow due to the grace of God.
Hebrews 11:39-40
And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: 40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
Galatians 4:28-31
28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. 29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. 30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. 31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
Hearing the voice of God.
Why will God deprive you from hearing his voice.
John 10:27-28
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
How to Hear from God
- By listening to the Holy Spirit
- By getting into the presence of God
- By waiting on God
When you are agitated or disturbed , you wouldnot be able to hear God. So your Spirit must be calm to hear the prince of Peace.
Humbling yourself
Anyone that is not humbled before God, cannot hear from God. You are the branch and must be connected to the Vine to bear fruit
John 15:5
5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
Not by might , not by power, but by the Spirit of the Lord
Isaiah 11:2
The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord—
You hear God when you are obedient to his Word. You cannot say Jesus is your Lord if you donot obey his voice.
Faith without action is dead – Your faith is shown by your trust in God.
1 Peter 2:9
9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
Isaiah 43:1-7
But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob,
he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine. 2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.
3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush[a] and Seba in your stead.
4 Since you are precious and honored in my sight,
and because I love you, I will give people in exchange for you,
nations in exchange for your life.
5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east
and gather you from the west. 6 I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’ Bring my sons from afar
and my daughters from the ends of the earth—
7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory,
whom I formed and made.”
God’s supernatural miracle/powers will flow and manifest as you are walking and connected to the Spirit of God.
Read Numbers 13
God will make your rod bud like Aaron’s rod and the rebellious will see the glory and goodness of God.
