Are You Able to Hear?

“The Lord GOD has given Me the tongue of disciples,
That I may know how to sustain the weary one with a word
He awakens Me morning by morning,
He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.” Isaiah 50:4

There are several compelling reasons why God still has His lines of communication open with His people:

- God loves us just as much as He loved the people of the Old and New Testament days. He wants to develop a love relationship that involves a two-party conversation.

- We need His definite and deliberate direction for our lives - as did Joshua, Moses, Jacob, and Noah. We need God’s counsel for effective decision making.

- He knows we need comfort and assurance just as much as did the believers of old. When we undergo Red Sea experiences of Ai defeats, God knows our need for His assurance and confidence.

- God wants us to know Him. If God stopped talking, would we ever discover what He is really like?

If the priority of all of our goals is to know God, then there must be a communication link in which He talks to us and we listen - or we talk to Him and He listens.

“I wait for the LORD, my soul does wait,
And in His word do I hope.” Psalm 130:5
