How the Lord spoke to me.

First, to start this blog, I just want to let you all know that God speaks to us in several ways. It can be through a friend, it can be from our Pastors, it can be through a television or radio message or it can be through the bible which is God's word any way.



However this blog is how God spoke to me through the bible during my devotional time recently one morning, and then more recently I shared it at the men's ministry meeting on Thursday evening march 10, 2011. I will share the scripture verses with you later on in the blog.

One of the things I ask God everyday during my prayer time is; God what is it that You want me to do during this lifetime? And He told me first to obey Him when He tells me to do something. My answer to Him was ok I will try. Then on the next day during my prayer time and my devotional; He said to me carry the light. These that were spoken to me by Him were clear as day! Just like carrying on a regular conversation with Him right next to me in the same room!

This isn't the first experience of had like this either. When God speaks to me; almost all the time it is through the bible. WOW, it is very exciting, and the funny part about it, is these scripture verses I've read hundreds of times, and sometimes you just get it! WOW again! These experiences are the most extraordinary experiences we can ever have! And when we finally get it, it feels real good, and then we ask ourselves " Why didn't I get it before when I have read it a hundred times before? " To answer this question the only thing I can think of is either we weren't listening or we just weren't ready for it at the time.

This is truly the way God works and it is awesome! When we get these answers suddenly, we know that He is always listening, but are we always listening? Food for thought. So in closing this blog, this is my suggestion, everyday so long as we live in this world, and this is just a suggestion, we should always put time aside to spend it with God, and be persistent, don't ever give up, and always talk to God. He is always listening, and he wants that intermate relationship with all of us.

And although the answers don't always come quickly according to our time, they always come, and they come in Gods perfect time, and His time is always perfect even though we don't think so sometimes.

Now for the scripture verses, and these scripture verses are coming from the NASB bible.

Matthew 28:19-20
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. "

Psalm 96: 2-3
2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name; proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day. 3 Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
