Struggling to hear from God?
If you have been struggling to hear from God, this devotional is for you!
The bible says in John 1:1 [KJV] “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”.
There you go – the Bible is very clear about Who God is. He is the Word of God. Right now, if you have been reading, seeing or touching the Bible, you have been seeing, touching and reading the manifestation of God Himself.
So whatever your worry, concern or question, the answer is to open up your bible and find Scripture promises that are relevant to your situation. Right there in front of you, you are reading what our loving Father and Creator is saying, and has always been saying to people in similar situations from generation to generation. Take what you are reading by faith. It’s a free gift from a loving Father, just for you! Believe that if Jesus were walking on earth this very day and met with you to discuss your problem, He would be saying the very same thing!
You know what the real trouble is? It is the devil – the father of all lies. When God created the world in Genesis 1, everything He created was by His Words and “very good” Genesis 1: 31 [KJV]. And we all know when God says something is good, it will really be Good!
In the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve, the first human couple lived, everything was really Good, until one day, the devil came in the form of a serpent and asked Eve, only one question that caused trouble for the entire word: ……”hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?” Genesis 3:1 [KJV].
The moment the devil asked that question, there was doubt, confusion, contradiction and unbelief concerning what God had really said. This led to dilution of the consequences, potency and impact of what God’s Word would do to Adam, Eve and the entire human race. Yes, death came as a result of this – proving that God’s Word is never weak, but that it will always do what it says it will do.
Today stand on whatever promise God has given you, knowing that all the contradiction you are experiencing, is only Satan’s attempt to interfere with the Truth. Sooner or later, God Who is the Word, will do what He is and has been saying to you the moment He gave you that promise.
Don’t forget to read and think over and over again what God has promised you:
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.Psalm 103: 2-5 [KJV]
He knows, if you forget the Word, you can easily be tricked by the devil. You will not hear His voice and you will not be able to believe in Him, let alone benefit from His promises.
