#Are_you_able_to_listen?




Ezekiel 40: 4 “The man said to me, “Son of man, look carefully and listen closely and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought her.  Tell the people of Israel everything you see.” 

Do you sometimes dream of hearing God speak to you in an audible word? As you sit somewhere praying and hear God say “My Son, Daughter I am here.  Speak to me.” I do and I have heard God speak to me in a still voice. The problem is we don’t always listen carefully and we don’t always pay attention to that still voice we hear.
Yes I have heard the still voice speak to me on a number of occasions and regretfully the last time I heard God speak to me I didn’t listen carefully nor did I pay close attention to what God was saying.

In the mean time I am learning to listen more carefully and pay attention to everything I notice. I have decided that I don’t want to miss out on what God has in store for me this time. 

I didn’t listen without interrupting God and my life took a whole new turn. Thank goodness God is merciful and gives me the opportunity to rectify things.  His grace surpasses my expectations every time.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, Lord I didn’t listen closely and I didn’t pay close attention when You were speaking to me.  In humbleness Lord I am asking You please Lord forgive me. I jumped to my own conclusions and did exactly what I wanted to. You know what I am referring to and I cannot change a thing but in humble prayer I am asking that You help me to listen careful and to pay close attention. You know that I am still regretting my actions and I am looking for guidance and asking You please show me the way forward. I declare the blood of Jesus Christ over my own life and the lives of each person reading this message. Please forgive me Lord in Jesus Christs Name. Amen

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God.  On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach.  Are you able to relate?   It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;”  Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD.  After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
