John 8:31-47
Inspired thots
God is really great! A continuation of what I shared in CMTT yesterday;
~> Hearing from GOD.
1) Just like baby Jesus had no room available for Him (Luke 2:7), the people heard Him during His earthly ministry but MADE NO ROOM for His WORD (v37).
It is so common and easy to 'crowd' out God's words from our hearts, as we busy ourselves with our lives; we have missed the mark. God's word is TRUTH; and the truth sets us free (v32).
2) One cannot hear to understand if one is not understanding the language. And the language is not understood because it is of one's attitude of shutting out that which is to be received. (v43)
Selective hearing is very crucial in receiving what is heard to mould our character, thinking, and emotions.
3) v47 So simply 'He who belongs to God hears what God says'. ~ Checkpoint. It is not possible to receive God's best to be wasted on this world ~ self-indulgence.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
