Cooperate With God

Luke 8:15 [LB] “…They listen to God’s words and cling to them and steadily spread them to others who also soon believe.” [with emphasis]

 

Have you made up your mind to consistently hear His voice? If your answer is yes, then you must also settle in your heart that you will obey what He tells you to do. The reason a lot of people do not hear God, is because God knows they will do what they want to do regardless of what He says. Sometimes, folks come to me asking for direction or advice.

Positioning

Luke 8:15 [GN] “The seeds that fell in good soil stand for those who hear the message and retain it in a good and obedient heart, and they persist until they bear fruit.” [with emphasis]

 

For us to tune-in to God, we must cultivate open minds, create time to listen, and eliminate distraction.

#4. The fourth thing we must do to tune-in to God’s voice is, co-operate with what God says. Please get this because it is so powerful. God will always speak to people who Read the rest of this entry

Pre-occupied?

Luke 8:7 [MSG]  “Other seed fell in the weeds; the weeds grew with it and strangled it.” [with emphasis]

 

Jesus explains Luke 8:7 in Luke 8:14 saying, “The seed that fell among weeds stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way, they are choked by life’s worries, riches, and pleasures, and they don’t mature.”  [NIV, with emphasis]. So the soil with weeds is a pre-occupied mind. A mind that is pre-occupied cannot tune-in to God. You Read the rest of this entry

Quiet Time

Luke 8:7 [MSG]  “Other seed fell in the weeds; the weeds grew with it and strangled it.” [with emphasis]

 

To tune-in to God’s voice, the first thing you and I must do is, cultivate an open mind. The second thing we must do is, create time to listen. This cannot be over emphasized.

#3. The third thing we must do to tune-in to God’s voice is, eliminate distractions. Sometimes, even when we have blocked out time to be with God, the constant beeping of Read the rest of this entry

Slow Down!

Luke 8:6 “Other seed fell on shallow soil with underlying rock.  This seed began to grow, but soon it withered and died for lack of moisture.” [with emphasis]

 

#2. If I want to be tuned to God, I must Create Time to Listen. So the first thing to do is, cultivate an open mind and secondly, take time to listen. Slow down and make time to be quiet so that you can hear God speak. Haste is a major hindrance to hearing God. You need to slow down! Unfortunately, we live in a post microwave era, where the microwave Read the rest of this entry

Block I

Luke 8:5 [NIV] “A farmer went out to sow his seed.  As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds of the air ate it up.” [with emphasis]

 

Jesus explains Luke 8:5 in Luke 8:12 Those along the footpath are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes along and takes away the word from their hearts, so they cannot believe and be saved.” In order to hear the voice of God, the first thing we must do is to cultivate an open mind. Just like a closed fist, a closed mind cannot receive Read the rest of this entry

Tune-In!

Luke 8:8 “…Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”

 

In today’s Scripture reference, Jesus is saying something that is very powerful. Jesus says “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.” Whoever has a radio to receive, let him tune-in. It is a sad thing to have ears to hear and not hear – to be equipped with everything to hear God consistently and, still not hear or tune-in to God’s frequency. Read the rest of this entry

Fresh Fire

Lu.3: 2 while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness [with emphasis]

 

Yesterday, I began by telling you how the Holy Spirit used Luke 3:1-2 to ignite a hunger in me for the voice and the Word of the Lord. And today, I am going to show you details of this Scripture that can easily be missed but are essential to life change. Lu.3:1Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, 2 while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness [with emphasis].

Hungry?

Psalm 32:8 “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.  I will advise you and watch over you” [with emphasis].

One question that is constantly on the mind of many believers is how to hear God consistently. Firstly, I implore you to settle this truth in your heart; you have all it takes to hear from God – You are fully equipped. Imagine you just got an expensive antique radio. You bring it out of the box and connect it to the power source. When the radio Read the rest of this entry

In The Lord!

“A fire shall always be burning on the altar; it shall never go out” Lev.6:13.

 

The Bible says people perish for lack of knowledge; but you will not perish because you will learn and grow in the Word. The challenge with us human beings, everybody including me, is that we need encouragement time and again. We build an altar to God and we are excited about it but then after a while, we get tired and just do not want to go on. Which is the difference between a child and a man; a Read the rest of this entry
