Powerful Revelation of Truth


Hey everyone. This is a Word the LORD gave me just now when I was in my kitchen.
The Word of GOD is not open to interpretation. If humans could give it their own definition then it would no longer be the Word of GOD but the word of man. How then could it be applied to anyone’s life? The Bible is to be applied just like medicine. You do not decide where the medicine goes yourself if the instruction is written as to how and when you should use it. In the same way the Word of GOD is not to be misapplied but used in its appropriate context as to be healing to its user.
Thank You Holy Spirit for that Word of wisdom You are teaching me.   

Are you listening?

Reading taken from:  1 Samuel 3

Have you ever had a conversation with someone who only talks about themselves? Or better yet... have you tried talking to someone who doesn't quite pay attention to what you're saying? I'm sure you probably feel that talking with that person is a complete waste of time if you can't even effectively get your message across. Thus, it benefits neither the speaker nor the listener. We all love receptive listeners. Especially when we have something important to tell we would like to be sure that you have the listeners full attention.

In our friendship with GOD it is important to listen. He speaks with those who are prepared to listen. And we find that those individuals who are more atuned to the LORD's voice are more able to make wise choices and lead strong effective and fruitful Christian lives. Their lives are directed by Someone who knows what He's on about.

You must be listening first for GOD to listen to you. GOD speaks to those trusting and who are willing to listen. The voice of His Spirit is heard by the receptive, submitted and contrite. A humble listener who desires to hear the Word of the LORD. 

1 Samuel 3:9-10
So Eli told Samuel, “Go and lie down, and if he calls you, say, ‘Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!
Then Samuel said, “Speak, for your servant is listening.” After Samuel had said this, the LORD delivered His message. My question to you is: Are you ready to hear from GOD?

The Bible says in Hebrews 3:15 and 4:7 "Today, if you hear His voice do not harden your hearts."

The Bible also says that GOD rewards the diligent (Hebrews 11:6) and that He will be found by those who seek Him with all their heart (Jeremiah 29:11-13). Trust in the LORD with all your heart (Proverbs 3:5), hear what He has to say. He has a future for you, a bright one. One filled with hope and success. A prosperous one. A destiny.

GOD is going to say something to you today. Maybe through a phone call, through someone you know, the pages of a textbook, or the Bible itself. So make sure you're listening. And if you are grappling with something, ask Him. He will more than listen. He will hear you and respond with your answer.
