Hebrews 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
God the Father, knowing all things from the beginning, knew exactly who would listen and obey. He knew the results and understood the when and how with perfect timing. The question for us to answer is which words were meant for a people and a purpose long past and which ones were meant for us.
The difficulty of understanding is complicated by our enemy who intends to frustrate every effort on our part to know God’s will for us.
Jeremiah 23:21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
Many dedicated men have spent a lifetime reading and meditating on God’s word. Some of those men have large volumes of works and to read all of one author’s words would consume us to the point of distraction. We would be hindered in getting around to serving God.
Which message is before me that compels me to write of it at this time? Perhaps it is this, God is speaking to us all the time. For some very human reasons, we misunderstand or are lied too, or we are not paying attention. We all have responsibilities to family, friends, work, and those things which matter to us that take us away from spending quality time with God’s Word. If you cannot find the time to be in God’s Word, then anything I might say will be reduced to nothing more than another man’s opinion.
I am not asking you to trust me or believe me. I would ask you to check with God on anything I have to say and allow the Holy Spirit to shed light on His truth.
As such I will endeavor to begin a series on some specific scriptures placed before me for meditation. I will meditate upon them and ask you to do likewise.
