Do You Listen When He Speaks?
Posted by Pastor Rich on February 25, 2010 under Pastors Blog |
How many times do we listen but at the same time we don’t listen when the Father is speaking to us. We are so busy with out lives that we don’t leave time for truly listening to what He wants. Many times with our motor-mouth prayers we don’t even give him time to speak. Why? Because we are so into what we want and not what He wants. We are pretty selfish and self-absorbed. I know this comes as a shock to many but we weren’t the only people like this. In Exodus the Children of Israel were the same way. They couldn’t wait for Moses to come down from his meeting with God Himself and they weren’t sure they wanted to have to change their lifestyles to live righteously, so they asked the #2 man to build an idol they could worship. We have to get to the point where as Men and Women of God we wait and pray for the answers rather than go by impulse and immediate gratification. The Children of Israel couldn’t wait a day or two they wanted everything now. God lives by His own time not ours. My encouragement is to challenge you to wait and live by His time and His will and His way…. I know you will be amazed at the results!
