The Voice of the Lord
I was reading in Psalm 29 and was amazed at all the powerful things the voice of the Lord can do. There is just something about revelation, that knocks you off your feet. Praise God, I love it!
The Lord is over many waters.
(Have you ever considered the size of ocean... it's Big!)
The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness.
The voice of the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon.
The voice of the Lord is so powerful. I don't think we really understand the magnitude of its strength. In the midst of all these great and mighty things that voice of the Lord can do, I believe that one of the most powerful things is it can speak to our hearts. Somehow it presses pass the anger, hurt, depression, jealousy, unforgiveness, pain, grief, and selfishness. And when His voice finally penitrates our hearts; our very being, He begins to sing in a whisper.
Do not, I repeat do not under estimate the whisper! This whisper has brought kings to their knees, murderers to repentance, and comforted the lonely.
God not only speaks, He also listens. "Blessed be the Lord, Because He has heard the voice of my supplications!" Psalm 28:6
He hears you. He has a plan. Now, TRUST HIM!!!
- Great word....thanks....I love the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19 about him going to stand in the presence of the Lord....and there was a powerful wind, earthquake, and fire....but he was in none of them...of course we know after all that he was in a gentle whisper......it's so good to hear his voice because it always brings healing.......earlier in 1 Kings 19 in vs 8 it talks about how an angel of the Lord came to Elijah and told him to eat and drink..because the journey was too great for him....if he would not have listened then he would not have heard God's whisper....sometimes I think we need to stop and rest.....drink.(worship)....eat(get in the word)....so we can continue on and hear him...just a nugget God showed me I wanted to share with you....sorry this comment got so long.......thanks again for the word......it's so good to hear what God is teaching and sharing with you......Good stuff :+)
- it is funny that you said that about eating because the next thing I am going to write about is eating... or hunger. God is so good!!! That sure is the understatement of the century!!!
