1 Kings 19:10-12 11And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake 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: 12And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
My Brothers and Sisters in Christ, how many times have we seen God’s voice portrayed to us as a loud booming noise, or a shaking of the earth. While at times we do see in the bible the Israelites hearing a sound of thunder on Mt Sinai, we see where God says He speaks to us individually through a “still small voice.”
But how, may you ask, can I hear Him speaking to me through the noise and attention grabbing activities of the day? That, my friend is the point; you must find a place where you can give the utmost attention to hearing God’s voice. He does not, nor will not compete with outside influences. He is the Creator, and deserves your utmost attention to hearing Him. I hear so many people say God doesn’t speak to them. Have you settled down to quietly read His Word and listen for Him?
God does speak to His sheep today. He is the same today as He was yesterday. He spoke to those who loved Him then, and He speaks to them today. He came to earth and walked and talked to Adam and Eve. He came to earth as Jesus Christ and walked and talked with us. He has left His holy word in the form of the bible to speak to us, and He promised and provided the Holy Spirit to dwell in us and speak and guide us. That is why we are to find us a “prayer closet” to be alone with Him. Why wouldn’t you want to be alone with the one who loves you? Today is the day God will speak to you. Go and see what God has to say!
Now go and be a good witness for Christ, Bro. Jonas Beauregard
