The Lord impressed me this morning to remind us that He has things He wants us to know! He has said to us, ”CALL TO ME, and I WILL ANSWER YOU, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” (Jer. 33:3) The devil does not want us to discover this wonderful truth because he, “…comes only to steal and kill and destroy; [Jesus says that He has come for another reason] I have come that they MAY HAVE LIFE, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10) We are God’s children, imagine if our earthly fathers never spoke to us! Let’s look at a couple of biblical examples of this, “In Damascus there was a disciple named Ananias. The Lord called to him in a vision, “Ananias!” “Yes, Lord,” he answered. THE LORD TOLD HIM, “Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying. In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.” (Acts 9:10-12) The Lord spoke to a man and, “Cornelius responded. “What is it, Lord?” he asked. “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have come up as a memorial offering before God. Now send men to Joppa to bring back a man named Simon who is called Peter. He is staying with Simon the tanner, whose house is by the sea.” (Acts 10:4-6)
WHEN WHAT WE NEED IS NOT FOUND IN THE BIBLE, HOW WILL WE KNOW?
