TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: “So even though Jesus was God’s Son, he learned obedience from the things he suffered. In this way, God qualified him as a perfect High Priest, and he became the source of eternal salvation for all of those who obey him.” Hebrews 5: 8-9
TODAY’S MESSAGE: It should be a privilege and an honor to be able to speak to our God in heaven. We don’t have to go through anyone or anything to speak with him. We don’t have to learn a ritual to be able to get to him. We don’t have to make an appointment to reach out to him. We can stop what we are doing at any time, and be anywhere, and still be able to reach out to God. He is always there to listen to us. What we sometimes forget is that the conversations we have with Him are to be two-way. We may ask; just how does God speak to us. One way is through his Holy Word. As we read and meditate, he will apply it to our lives. A particular scripture may suddenly jump off the page just when we need it. It may take on new meaning to fit our circumstances. The verse has not changed, it has always been there, but the Holy Spirit gives it to us when it will help us most. Another way the Lord speaks to us is through other people. He will send people our way when we need them the most. They may give us food, clothing or a word from God just at the right time. Still another way God communicates is through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the third person of the God head and is ready and willing to talk with us. According to scripture the Holy Spirit will lead, rebuke, affirm, comfort and assure us when we need it most. Our prayers are to be two-way conversations with God. We must be able to not only take our requests to him but also be ready and willing to recognize his voice when he speaks. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
