God Speaks I Listen

Psalms 138:7 ⁷ Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me.

This morning as I prayed I was so blessed by what God showed me.  The storms of life, which is anything that involves me that is very difficult for me to go through, are coming. It could be a real storm like a tornado, hurricane, or a just a bad rain storm. It could be a loss of a job, a life, health or someone I loves health.  Any situation can be a storm but…………

God showed me His hand reaching out for me! I see a vision of God reaching for me and as I grab His hand and hold on to Him the fear that had scared me vanished and I felt so comforted. Tears are filling my eyes as I write this.  The fear that I had is swept away by the grace of God my Father.

I am afflicted with a chronic illness and when I got up this morning I wasn’t feeling well….in fact I was scared because what I suffer from is scary. I needed this vision of the Lord reaching out and touching me.  The word of God says His mercies are new EVERY morning GREAT, do you hear me GREAT is His faithfulness!!!  Can I get an Amen?

God is telling me that no matter what I go through and no matter how much the storm is raging to reach out to Him in prayer and ask for His help in the name of His precious son…. JESUS.

There is awesome POWER in that name. Jesus has a lot of experience with testing and trials. He definitely knows about storms and knows just how to quiet one.  We are in the hands of an experienced and knowledgeable God. God’s skills are incomprehensible to us. But it’s a good thing we don’t have to understand all of His awesomeness; we just have to trust Him like a little child. When a child is hurting they reach out for their parents……reach out for your Abba Father….I know I did today! God bless you all.

Message for today:  God says He is waiting to help you in your hour of need. He says as the storms of life are raging all around us and that Jesus has ALL POWER in His hands to pull you through, even getting in there with you so you will never be alone.

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home

Philippians 4:19 And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.(NIV)

This morning I heard God planning with Jesus, the Holy Spirit and some of His angels on assignment. They need to send certain blessing, miracles and answered prayers to many of His children on earth who have been praying for help. Some of these blessing were things that God just wanted to do special for certain people.

In their planning they are discussing those who will help on earth. They say “this one won’t help they are too busy, or this one will only take care of his own. This one is too stingy and this one is selfish. But there are many people who God can depend on to do His will. They will give the shirts off their back and are willing to help God anytime He asks. They are such a blessing to God and make the words of the bible come to life by their actions.

God will use anyone and anything to bring blessing to His children. His answers to us in our hour of need are ALWAYS PERFECT.

I hear God saying that He wants people to be compassionate.  He says look around and use your eyes, ears and heart to feel the needs around you and act. HE says He’s not asking anyone to save the world but if everyone would obey when he touches a heart to act and move in a certain way to bless another person it would please Him.

Many times He is so moved by a persons compassion that He will send blessing to the one who helps.  He will also send extra increase to people who do His will because He knows He can trust them to share the blessing.

Compassionate….. is one of the most beautiful words in the English language. It is an action word that when one does it, it will have a rippling effect in the lives of others.

Message for today – “Use your hands, your time, money, and heart to be compassionate and giving towards others. Listen for my lead…I will show you….I’ll give you all you need to bless others in love.”

2 Corinthians 9:6-15    ⁶ Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. ⁷ Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. ⁸ And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. (NIV)

This is the day…..the day of my first blog. It’s all so new and exciting.

This morning as I prayed the Spirit of God reminded me of His holiness. Oh the Holiness of God. In my prayer time I worshiped the Lord and found myself in a place where He allows me to worship Him. As I prayed I could feel His presence all around me. It was powerful and so awesome. I wish I could stay there. I heard these words: Holy, Holy,Holy is the Lord. I have been in this place of worship many times. I have seen smoke and beautiful sights.

I close my eyes and I pray more… seeking to know more of Him. A place of worship is what He showed me today. There is not a lot of color, just smoke, a room, the presence of others worshiping. I don’t see God but only feel His presence in the throne room of Holy worship. I feel so privileged to be able to worship God in this unique way, God who doesn’t hide Himself from His creations. He is available to all who seek Him and my heart soooo seeks after God.

God is soooooo Holy. There are really no words to express what I feel in my heart and what I’ve seen.

A scripture that overwhelms me is –  Isaiah 6:1  In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting upon a throne,
high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.

Just reading this causes my heart to bow in worship.

Who is this Holy God?

He is a supernatural being who is worthy of reverence adoring passionate worship

He is morally perfect in every way.

Has total knowledge and authority over everything.

He is the master and ruler over the ENTIRE universe.

He has been always in existence and will always be.

He is righteous in all that He says and does.

He is a consuming fire and everything that is not pure will be burnt up because He is Holy.

He has enemies.

He sacrificed His only son for mankind’s redemption.

He is full of compassion and He is Love.

He is Good.

He is very creative.

He’s easy to talk to.

He laughs and has emotions.

He loves music…. after all He created it.

These are things that I found out through reading the bible and my prayer times.
