Good morning family of God!
Are you aware that GOD WANTS TO TALK TO YOU every single day? He loves you with an unending love and wants to show Himself strong on your behalf ~ He wants to show Himself mighty in the situations you face in life. 2 Chronicles 16:9 declares,
- For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is whole toward Him.
When God introduced Himself to Abraham, He called Himself “EL-SHADDAI,” the Almighty God, which means God is the One Who will provide for us in every way. Genesis 17:1-2 (AMP) says,
- When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, I am the Almighty God; walk and live habitually before Me and be perfect (blameless, wholehearted, complete). And I will make My covenant (solemn pledge) between Me and you and will multiply you exceedingly.
As a seed of Abraham, you are a child of promise. Galatians 3:29 declares,
- If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
As such, God wants to give you a future that is brighter and more glorious than you can even imagine. GOD TALKS TO YOU and leads you to everything you need by the Holy Spirit. Romans 8:14-16 tells us that those who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.
You can train your born again spirit to hear from the Holy Spirit by renewing your mind with the Word, so you will walk in the spirit as opposed to the flesh. Galatians 5:16 (NLT) says,
- So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves.
You can also train your spirit to hear His voice by praying in tongues. Jude 1:20 says,
- But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit…
When you pray in the spirit, the Holy Spirit prays through you, and He prays God’s perfect will. When you know you’ve heard from God, be quick to obey Him. When you do, He will show Himself strong and move mightily on your behalf.
The Holy Spirit’s job is to guide us through life. Jesus said in John 16:13,
- But when He, the Spirit of Truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on His Own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come.
