We are so comforted to know that God listens to us. But what about His emotions? How do you think it makes God feel when we listen to Him? I think it makes God happy. Communication is the key that opens the door to any satisfying relationship. Talking and listening to one another =Relationship.
Isaiah 50:4 The Sovereign Lord has given me a well-instructed tongue,to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed.
Proverbs 28:9 (NIV) If anyone turns a deaf ear to the law, even his prayers are detestable.
It’s not enough that God listen to us, but we must listen and perform the duties that He would want [for us] also.
Thank you, Lord, for taking the time to teach me how I must perform in the life that you have so preciously given. I move and breathe because of You. It is You who wakes me morning by morning and it is You who gives me the strength I need to do every daily task. Thank You for the faithfulness you bestow in the relatioship you have with me. It is my desire to bestow the same. Love you so! Amen.
I’m not top-notch regarding this, but I do want to have DISCERNMENT in all my ways. As I try to discern the times we live in I also want to have the discernment I need in other areas of my life. What I do and what I say, matters. I’m so thankful for the Word of God I heard in Sunday school this weekend!
When we call on God, He bends down His ear to listen, as a father bends down to listen to his little child.
