January 18, 2012 Do You Hear?

Do You Hear? Job 33:14-18 For God does speak — now one way, now another — though man may not perceive it. 15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they slumber in their beds, 16 he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings, 17 to turn man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride, 18 to preserve his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword. DO YOU ever consider how amazing it is that God speaks to you? I know. Most of us don’t even think he does. But this scripture is very clear that God communicates to you in several ways for the express purpose of preserving your soul from the pit, your life from perishing by the sword. How many times, though, do you consider God’s communication to you? In the reading of this devotional moment, for example, do you think I’m communicating with you? Or do you think God is communicating with you? I truly hope it’s the latter. I write this to help you know God’s communications for your life, to help your life and to save your life from harm, even “the pit” Hell. I pray what I write leads you to read the whole chapter from which each devotion comes. I hope the chapter reading leads you to read a second chapter or to uncover new truths that God wants to communicate to you. I pray you turn a listening heart, mind and soul to the Great Communicator. From the throne of Heaven he has declared his love for you. Everything about God exudes the communication, “I love you.” as he tells you what and what not to do to live with him now and forever. Receive his communication. Be saved to his truth. It’s True! God communicates life.
