WHEN GOD SPEAKS

   God knows you.  He knows all about you.  There is nothing about you, in fact, that God does not know.
   God knows when you are good, and God knows when you are bad; for He knows all of your behaviors, whether they be good or bad.  He knows about your words of lies, and He knows about your words of truth.  He knows about your success, and He knows about your failures.
   God knows about your dreams and of all the things you have done as well as all the things you would like to do. 
   Above everything that God knows about you, He also knows your name:  and all the names of the people in your family tree.  And he knows the names of all the people that you know:  your family, friends, and your associates at your place of employment. 
   You are important to God, and He knows that your name is important to you.
   Therefore, when God wants your attention, He will speak your name.
   God has been speaking to people ever since the day He created Adam, the first man on earth, and the Almighty has never stopped speaking to people.
   God speaks to people in many ways. 
   To begin, creation itself is the evidence of the work of the Master Engineer.  And of all the millions of places in the universe, isn't it interesting that only planet Earth can sustain life?  Even the air we breathe is a creation of God, for how would nature know that we need air in order to live?  How would nature know that we also need water and food?  For the earth is designed to produce the abundance of food that we need to live.  No other planet can do for us what the earth can do. 
   Secondly, God has been using the heavens as a chalkboard to write messages to us for events that have been coming upon the earth as well as for events that are yet to come.  God wants us to know things before those things come to pass.
    For example, when Jesus was born in Bethlehem, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.  (Matthew 2: 2)
   And again, God is speaking to us in a comet that is presently in the heavens, which is named ISON, and this, too, is a sign, or a signal, from God of coming events upon the earth.  Therefore, it is in our interest to pay attention to comet ISON and to consider events that are about to happen upon the earth, for God is speaking to us in the heavens and He wants us to know and not to be surprised.  And by knowing, we can be prepared.  For God wants to include us with Him in His master plan.
   Thirdly, God speaks to us through His written Word, which is the Holy Bible; for the words of the Bible are the words of God, and, as we read the Word of God, we can hear the voice of God speaking those words if we will listen
   Jesus said, My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:  and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.  My Father, which gave them to me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.  I and my Father are one.  (John 10: 27-30)
   Therefore, when you hear the voice of Jesus speaking your name, answer Him; for you are one of His sheep, and the Lord is extending His salvation to you, to lift you out of the world, to bring you back to the sheepfold, and you will walk in newness of life!
   To know Christ is to know the light of the world.
   Please do not be left behind in the dark.
