Just A Thought

Romans 2:12-16 MSG If you sin without knowing what you’re doing, God takes that into account. But if you sin knowing full well what you’re doing, that's an entirely different story. Merely hearing God’s law is a waste of your time if you don’t do what he commands. Doing, not hearing, is what makes the difference with God. When outsiders who have never heard of God’s law follow it more or less by instinct, they confirm its truth by their obedience. They show that God’s law is not something alien, imposed on us from without, but woven into the very fabric of our creation. There is something deep within them that echoes God’s yes and no, right and wrong. Their response to God’s yes and no will become public knowledge on the day God makes his final decision about every man and woman. The Message from God that I proclaim through Jesus Christ takes into account all these differences.

Just A Thought

I have been trying to get sound approval from God for a while now, wanting to know if I'm on the right track with things and wanting to know the steps I need to take to get to where He is trying to take me. But all this time I haven't heard a thing. So I began to get frustrated I felt as though everyone around me was hearing God and are getting supernatural confirmation but me. And I started to doubt that the direction I'm going in wasn't the right one, that I am doing something wrong or that am not anointed enough for God to speak (crazy right?! The devil is a lie!). And because of my concerns I begin to research, " how to hear from God". I had some teachings on how to do it but I came across an article written by Andrew Wommack in-titled, "How to hear God's Voice". So I skimmed through the article and got down to the bottom and this part gave me my answer, "All of us seem to be busier than ever, and that's one of the BIG reasons we don't hear the voice of the Lord better. We're just too busy. " I immediately felt like I needed to repent because I'm like wait, I'm not busy! First off,  I don't have a job, I don't have a husband, and I don't have any kids. But don't get me wrong I make time to read and pray but after I do I sometimes go to sleep. There have been many times where I would hear from God but I don't make as much time as I should to actually be still and hear from Him on a regular basis. Therefore after reading the article the Holy Spirit made me realize that if I won't give all my time to Jesus when I'm not busy, then why would God bless me with work? Listen, God will withhold your blessing if you withhold what rightfully belongs to Him. If He can't trust us with the little we have, how can we expect him to bless us with increase? Just a thought I wanted to share.

 "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much- Luke 16:10
