The Lord Jesus is trying to speak in tones that His people will obey ...I sometimes wonder what really does God have to do to get our attention.
Perhaps that is a question I could ask you today ....what does JESUS have to do in your life to get your attention ?
Something glad , something sad , something bad , something slightly mad ? How do you hear the voice of God, & when He speaks how do you choose to respond ?
You see the great Almighty will often speak to us telling us what we NEED to hear , rather than what we WANT to hear .
The prophets were down through history rebuked , hated , misunderstood , rejected , mocked and a great deal else when they spoke what God told them to say , John the Baptist was beheaded for his message from God , rather an extreme reaction to a message of holiness , but such is the nature of intentional sin . Just get away from me with your legitimate Word of God ......this is still the case for both the modern day prophet and people who choose not to hear .
Today when the great LORD speaks I have a few suggestions : 1. stop & listen
2. posture yourself to confirm this Word ,3. obey His commands to you , 4. obey quickly , 5. don't think more about your reputation than being a true disciple of Jesus, 6. have others pray for you , 7. stay in the Word , 8. stay on your knees , 9. pray & fast for the outcomes , 10 . have faith that the Lord Jesus will empower you to do His Kingdom business & and so much more!
Read today : 1 Thess. 5 :19-21 ''DO NOT QUENCH THE HOLY SPIRIT, DO NOT SPURN THE GIFTS & UTTERANCES OF THE PROPHETS (DO NOT DEPRECIATE PROPHETIC REVELATIONS NOR DESPISE INSPIRED INSTRUCTIONS , EXHORTATIONS OR WARNINGS). BUT TEST & PROVE ALL THINGS , WAHT IS GOOD , & HOLD FAST ."
It is a very serious issue to QUENCH the Spirit of God in your life , your family & in the church Jesus has called you to lead or be at .
Pray that you may never be found in that sad , desolate place .
