God’s Voice Today by yommyuk: 4:52pm On Dec 26, 2015 |
In biblical times, God spoke in many dramatic ways. Although He still speaks today, His methods have changed. We can’t expect Him to speak in an audible voice or to send an angelic messenger every time He has something to say to us. We must learn how to perceive His voice today. The primary way our Father speaks to us today is through His written Word—we have His complete revelation within the Bible. There is not a single thing missing that He needs to add. Why? Because He has already revealed His Word perfectly to those whom He inspired to write it down. This isn’t a book written by human beings; the Holy Spirit of God literally breathed His truth upon the minds of certain men so they could record it (2 Tim. 3:16). The Bible is God’s way of speaking to our pressing needs, concerns, heartaches, and worries. So often when trouble strikes, we turn here or there, talking to some friend or counsellor. All of that is well and good, and the Father does indeed speak through godly men and women. But the first place we should turn is to His Word. The Lord has given us this Book so that we might know His mind—which requires consistently spending time in the Word. If you pick up the Bible only when you have a question or emergency in your life, you’ll never get the big picture of what God wants to say to you. Scripture is a treasure trove of God’s thoughts. Spend time there every day—starting today—mining it for new truths and insights. John 8:47 “Whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.” Luke 11:28 But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!” John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. 1 Kings 19:11-13 And he said, “Go out and stand on the mount before the Lord.” And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains and broke in pieces the rocks 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 the sound of a low whisper. And when Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. And behold, there came a voice to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” Romans 8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. IT IS WELL. GOD BLESS |
