LISTEN CAREFULLY!
Proverbs 5:7 – Devotional
Proverbs 5:7
“Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of My mouth.”
How do we listen carefully? I think the answer is in blocking out extraneous sounds that prevent us from hearing clearly what we want to hear. For music I find that headphones create an entirely new world of sound quality. Music that I enjoy without headphones bring enjoyment, but with the headphones I enter a whole new world of appreciation of the music.
In like manner when I study the Bible, I often am transfixed by reading chapter after chapter and finding new and glorious appreciation for the revelation of eternal truth. It stuns me that many believers neglect the thrill of discovering how our loving God desires a personal relationship with us!
I have come more and more to approach the study of God’s Word with quiet assurance that God is far more anxious to meet with me than I am with Him. How can it be that the God of the universe wants to spend time with the likes of me? Then I read that He even cares for the sparrows, so He also cares for each of us!
Listen carefully as the Lord will speak to you as you open the pages of your Bible (or listen to a recording of Scripture). God loves each of us enough to come in humanity and give Himself for our eternal salvation. LISTEN CAREFULLY!
Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing.
