THE VOICE OF THE LORD (Psalm 29)

-
Psalm 29:2
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

The Supremacy and Sovereign power of the Heavenly Father can not be overemphasized. For we live in times when man has been so distracted away from His maker for even though it seems they call His name, their heart actually is somewhere else.

Most people even most believers feel that the Lord is quiet. Yes for many have not learnt to hear His Voice speak to them.

It reminds us of the first encounter of the people of Israel with the Lord on Mount Sinai:

Exodus 20:18-19
And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw [it], they removed, and stood afar off.
And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
(Do read chapters 19 and 20)

Many who say today "Thus says the Lord", how many of them have really heard the voice of the Lord.

We understand by the revelation of the Messiah, Yeshua, Jesus the Christ that God is love, however we must not take light His power.

For it is a terrible thing to fall into the hand of the Lord:

Hebrews 10:31
 [It is] a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

How many really have heard the voice of the Lord?

Lamentations 3:37
Who [is] he [that] saith, and it cometh to pass, [when] the Lord commandeth [it] not?

When the Lord speaks, no other person or being can contradict. Who are they?

He alone reverses what He says, yes for He is mercy, long suffering and kind. Jonah can testify to this.

And when He has spoken His word does not return to Him void it must fulfill its purpose.

Isaiah 55:11
 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.

Glory to God for today His very Spirit dwells in us. For even His laws He has written in our hearts. We enjoy such great love and ease. We are inexcusable.

What has the Lord spoken concerning you?

Have you fulfilled it? Nothing is strong enough to contradict it except you.

What has the Lord spoken in His Word? Never cease to study.

He calls us blessed.

Love
@ the watcher

DO YOU STILL SEE?

Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
