A Desire To Hear The Lord

Desires of our Heart

Matthew 7:8 (KJV) For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

John 7:37 (KJV) In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

These verses says a lot, it depends who you ask and for what. We can receive from man or receive from Yeshua and Almighty God our Father. Some interesting happenings within the family I was led to do. I had had one grandson on my heart and texted with him about it to pray and I was praying also about the topic.  After it appeared his prayers were answered as there was a desire there for the Lord yet it was a spoken desire, things at this point have not changed as of yet. After these things I asked him if he desired to hear the Lord for himself, his reply was "yes I do". So I asked him if grandma stent him 1 scripture a day would he read it and his reply was basically yes he would, and said he needed to get closer to the Lord. I told him he would hear and it is Jesus that tells us how and most churches do not teach the gospels and Jesus words. So I made it clear that the only words I will send him to read would be words spoken by Jesus. Then it was me trying to figure out an online cellphone Bible to be able to do this via cellphone to him. Word, thankfully his grandpa let me experiment sending him things over and over till I could figure it out. When I told him what I was doing he asked me to send them to him also.

Overcomming Technical Challenges

I had originally planned just to copy paste one scripture but figured out how to make the verse pop plus make it red letter and to make that scripture the top verse on the link I sent. I am sending him then one scripture a day but the full chapter is there. I didn't go into why I send the KJV Bible but what most churches use is the NIV and word, that Bible not only changes the word but many verses are removed. Now this software online does allow you to change the version of the Bible, should he do that he might see for himself the difference. Why the Lord had me do it this way was basically proved by his grandpa as I asked him if he did read on his cellphone the scripture and he said yes I even read more that was there. This is why the Lord did lead me to do this this way. Today children use the cellphone and don't have computers. Did I figure out this software and learn how to make the text red and understand it? Not really, but I am a technical person and with something happening once on a web link address I see the difference added to get red letter so I add the "rl1" plus I backup on that link to edit and change the verse number to the one I want. This allows the full chapter to be there but the verse I put in is what comes to the top on the page, so that is their scripture for the day is what I told him.

You've Got Mail

Then yesterday on the Lords Sabbath, Christians celebrate Sabbath on Sunday as that is the day of resurrection of Christ. Jesus Himself got in trouble regarding the Sabbath day. Anyway I was led to send the daily scripture to many in the family that are Christian and to a friend of the family. Not but 2 of them replied to the word for today from the Lord. My youngest son and his wife both responded. I didn't send it to my other sons wife mainly because of his comments he made, yet it was fine for me to send a scripture a day to his eldest I asked permission. I told him that his son would get only words of Jesus and a scripture a day from me. I did try and contact his next born son as he just got baptized but he never responded to my text to him, so I was not led to send it to him. I felt the Lord would use his big brother. He may also use him to his mom that is up to my son or his son.

So this morning I ask the Lord since I didn't hear back from anyone else if I should stop sending them and the Lord wants me to continue to send them. Let them ask me not to send them if it bothers them, they have a choice to read or not. God sees all, hears all even our thoughts and heart. So I will do as led of the Lord and we shall see if any request the words of Christ is bothersome to any of them. The Lord said ask, so they do have that option also they can ask the Lord to stop them for themselves.

Directed By The Lord how to hear Him

I had to stop and listen to a song the Lord just now gave me for this when I hear I respond and go do: Word of God Speak

I am sure many hear a word or two having it pop into their heads and never search the scriptures looking up the words and seeing what is out of the mouth of Jesus or God speaking "saith the Lord". We are on day three of this learning to hear the Lord walk. The first scripture I sent them was John 14:26, the next day was John 14:23 and todays verse will be Matthew 4:4. I will continue as led of the Lord on my scriptures I put forth. Now I had a list of several scriptures written down yet this Morning the Lord changed for this to be day 3 so we will see from day to day as I keep asking the Lord each day. God is a God of order and only He would know the shortest path to give my grandson the desire of his heart to hear the Lord for himself not me.

Numbers 6:24-26 (KJV) The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

History Can Be Interesting

A couple days ago I was thinking about Mary and Martha and the happenings of Lazarus, more interested at the time on speech of Christ and happenings with them the day Yeshua raised Lazarus from the dead. So I went to the audio I love of the gospels dramatized John 11 and listened also having the text open following along with it. Gosh I think I might have listened to it again later as the scripture below was what jumped out at me:

John 11:51-52 (KJV) And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.

Have you ever had that happen? I don't normally get reminded of history at all why?  Because God said that the pens of the scribes lie  Jer 8:8 (all Paul's books are written by a scribe so it is history  Ro 16:22 ) there is no power in history.  Normally I am led to words in red spoken by Christ but it is a rare thing for it to happen within what was going on and not paying attention to this being prophesied by the high priest at the time. And, then this that Yeshua said and how I take it is that there were no prophets except what was written which even makes me quest  Yeshua also mentions that John was Elias so was there even prophets any longer?  This even makes me question Elisha and Elijah no prophet books written so everything written by scribes as history.

Matthew 11:13-14 (KJV) For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come.

Well then He mentions this to me yet I know and mention back saying well what did you send??? Sorry it was about these two next scriptures:  The Lord and I talk His words back and forth with each other He said she said kinda thing..

Matthew 7:22 (KJV) Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

My reply back was this:

Matthew 23:34 (KJV) Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:

Now the Lord has never told me nor showed me if He did stop with the prophets after "It is Written" So He will have to give me words to find such a thing or I personally won't know is all. Yes I remind Him I know, oh He reminded me so maybe it is in the Old Testament and have not been shown it but He reminded me of this:

Malachi 3:6 (KJV) For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

I hope you all have a blessed day and maybe this shed some light somewhere it always does for me.  I always learn something new being in the word with the Lord, but must say that enlightenment happened with my computer and my Bible software and spending the time to check search hearing a couple words for no reason popping into my head and a desire to know what the Lord thought about things.

Revelation 19:10 (KJV) And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

Twice Speaks

Twice Speaks

An interesting morning this morning, it started with prayer which is more common unless I hear a word first thing then go straight to my Bible and look it up.  It was a bit of a continuation from yesterday afternoon just flooded with a lot of the places within scripture He has taken me too,  Reminding me of time with Him and my education thru Him.  Well I was reminded of a website from ages ago back in 1998 and did some searching with AI to see if anything out there existed on it today, the answer was no not even in old archives.  A biblical site it was called Twice Speaks which was new things being found within the Bible being sparked if I recall from this scripture:

Job 33:14 (KJV) For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. 

I did read some of the Twice Speaks site and did understand that it meant the same word being used within just one scripture.  At the time I hadn't been into my Bible software to notice back then and couldn't remember the excitement they had at how it applied in prophecy, so I went looking to see if anyone maybe carried on with the investigations.  Then they found thrice speak scriptures, and with me I notice them but that happened much later with my words from the Lord.  He has given me four words within one scripture before, so 1 word used 4 times in one verse.  I had a bad taste for prophecy too and all the different teachings even regarding the book of Revelations I just didn't believe any of them.  Yes the Lord reminds me even now He is the spirit of prophecy, and I love Him dearly, but I am no prophet, my argument back at Him.  I am thankful I am one that abides in Him and besides He said He was more than a Prophet.  There is none like you of course these are my mental responses but it is truth which I could add right now haha..

The Lord did give me words to search that these were in and happened, problem was how to get the Lords people curious enough to look the stuff up and see if they find it themselves.  My software is easy to see but isn't an online Bible so I went looking to see if I could find one to link the word search to that highlighted the word search words.  I did find one online if you want to check it out.  The words I was given were "awake" and the other one led to the book of John was "love"

I was then given another word search and here it put me in Job again and usually I will check my tool for surrounding verses to what I was given and didn't on the first verse...so here got another word one scripture and back to Job and looked this time at my took and it highlights the full paragraph.

Job 33:14-18 (KJV) For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

There are select verses that I have been taken to in Job and another just reminded of was this one.

Job 4:15 (KJV) Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up:

So this was an interesting kinda memory lane walk as I am not usually taken to Job very often.  It all sparked with the once twice thing and I can't even remember why they were important however, I do spot them and take notice and the Lord has often with different word searches fly me by a same verse for myself.  All a part of growing in the Lord.

 

Asking The Lord About His Words

Do you ask the Lord or seek people for answers?

We are told to ask and it will be given unto you but who do you ask when it comes to scripture that doesn't set right with you or you don't understand something that God or Yeshua said? Most people seek others or mention it to a spouse or friend and get opinions and don't mentally take it to the Lord and ask in silence and then wait on the Lord for an answer first. When you are willing to wait on the Lord for a question you have in heart and mind you will get an answer. Not saying a word or speaking it outloud. When that happens to you, there is a joy and an awe of God Almighty and Yeshua at the same time. It leads you to start doing it more. I encourage you to start doing that soon and believe the Lord will answer you. Drawn to wanting to know from God Himself, He will for me give scripture most of the time, but He can use people to confirm something to you also. Believe me often the Lord will say to me Be Still and know that I am God. I have heard it a lot.

A conversation with the Lord By His Word

Can you have a conversation with scripture with the Lord, yes you can, but for me I got my first computer Bible back in about 1996, prior to that did use the book Strongs Concordance, but not that often. I loved the computer Bible and would look up for myself wondering what God thought about certain topics. It was several years later after doing that words would pop into my mind for no reason really just one or two words, so I would run to my Bible and enter them and scroll the search list. In scrolling I would be surprised as questions I wondered about to the Lord would all the sudden I would see an answer to my thoughts. 

I had been raised knowing by my young 20s maybe my Dad telling me Satan couldn't read my thoughts only God could but that Satan could put things in your mind and would even use scripture as he did when Yeshua fasted after being baptized. Anyway with this a new growth season was happening for me and my communication with the Lord. It eventually got to where I would take scripture to the Lord and He would reply with popping anywhere from 1 to 4 words give me and reply with scripture. I would just know what one answered my question...sometimes with several words He allowed on 1 scripture to pop up.

This morning I had started with prayer but when led to the page I have full of scriptures re praying for the nations with persecution of the Church..I flew down to the last verse posted don't ask me why but often first last and last first will enter my mind. Well when I saw the last scripture of over 30 scriptures on that page I was like hummmm

Nahum 1:2 (KJV) God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and is furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.

How the Lord Answers Through Scripture

Well the Lord knows me and I want the good stuff He said, you know pouring out His spirit on all flesh, and the one He says all would know Him and you wouldn't have to say know the Lord. So I sat there a bit rereading it haha Well I had also been praying as brought to me was also praying the Lord of the harvest saying that in my mind to the Lord and ask then why can only some hear, I know some are finding you even through dreams visions so His first words back to me was *the heart* and there is a lot of scriptures out of the mouth of Yeshua and God in the Old Testament. And shortly after seeing them all the words *seek know* came to my mind and I went to that search. Now just those words alone speak to you but there is scripture making it more clear and several on those words also. So basically we jumped then from drawing people topic back to nations. I said in my mind to him dividing of the nations? Yet I go look up what I said as sometimes the answer is what you speak, it was not the case and I heard Yeshua say *sheep goats* and then He said "the way*,, now I know those scriptures but I usually go look them up anyway, why? Because I have found new things before often times so I never usually just trust my memory.

Now I do have a site Hearing the Lord but since I was the one that started this conversation I am posting it here and not over there. So can you have a conversation with the Lord by His words the answer for me is yes, and I pray you start hearing and desire to know what God Himself Old Testament and Yeshua also God to me in one have to say about things. It starts with having a desire to know what the Lord thinks and a desire for Him to direct our paths, and learning to abide in Yeshua and a desire for them to make their abode with you.

The Lord did then have a word for me and you as after this I did ask Him and wow He made my day again!! hahaha
