Are You Listening For God?

January 11, 2011 by admin 2 Comments

 Throughout history God has spoken in mighty ways through nature to get our attention and to display His Holy power from flooding the earth, speaking through the burning bush, sending plagues, parting the seas, and through a donkey to deliver a message to you and me. The Lord speaks to us in many ways through signs and wonders everyday but as we learn with Elijah that these signs and wonders are there to get our attention and for us to learn how to listen.

1 Kings 19 “Then He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before the Lord.” And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.

 Learning to listen for God requires us to hear His Words that are placed upon our hearts and God speaks to us everyday but as we learn in Job 33 that we often miss what is right at our feet because we have fallen asleep to the Word of God. Are you awake? Are you listening for God? Are you seeing the signs of the times? Are you sure that you are following God and not being misled spiritually by Satan? 

 It is very wise to slow down at times to insure the steps that we are taking without allowing Satan deceive us in our emotions. For all Satan wants is for us to jump before we are ready. Are you ready? Can you hear that still small voice? If you want to hear God then simply be still and listen….

    I have been seaching for many answers to what has taken place in my lifethe past 6 years.  I ‘m not the same person I use to be and, many of my friends will tell me this has been a remarkable change in me.  My family more surprised than any.  This new me has made me so much closer to God that it’s so unbelievable to what God has to offer if we would just pay attention to what he can and, will do.  W

      Rose,
      It sounds as if you are stepping out of the worlds spiritual prison and recognizing the unlimited areas of God. There is a natural flow in the spirit of God and a world flow that travels in the circles of the wilderness.
      I like yourself have been going through the transformation that Jesus spoke of and in this transformation our eyes and ears are opened beyond this fallen world.
      Thank you for your post and I pray that you will continue to share on this site…May God continue to open your eyes and ears in the light of Jesus Christ and may your light shine in the darkness of this world….We are here for those that are seeking the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in Heaven…

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
