KIM, LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF JESUS…
“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has BLESSED US WITH EVERY SPIRITUAL BLESSING in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. Even BEFORE HE MADE THE WORLD, GOD LOVED US AND CHOSE US IN CHRIST to be holy and without fault in His eyes. God decided in advance to ADOPT US INTO HIS OWN FAMILY by BRINGING US TO HIMSELF through Jesus Christ. This is what He wanted to do, and IT GAVE HIM GREAT PLEASURE. So we praise God for the GLORIOUS GRACE He has POURED OUT ON US who belong to His dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that HE PURCHASED OUR FREEDOM WITH THE BLOOD OF HIS SON AND FORGAVE OUR SINS.” (Ephesians 1:3-7)
Think about this, we have been blessed with very special spiritual blessings BEFORE WE EVEN EXISTED, Dear Lord, “You saw me BEFORE I WAS BORN and scheduled each day of my life BEFORE I BEGAN TO BREATHE. Every day was recorded in your book!” (Psalms 139:16) BEFORE HE MADE THE WORLD, GOD LOVED US AND CHOSE US IN CHRIST
“You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! YOUR WORKMANSHIP IS MARVELOUS—how well I know it.” (Psalms 139:13-14) Do not ever say, “I’m so discouraged, I just do not know what I will do! God has a perfect plan for your life all you have to do is ask Him! Ok, but if I ask will he talk to me? “…sheep LISTEN TO HIS VOICE. He calls His own sheep by name and leads them…” (John 10:3) “…He goes on ahead of them, and His sheep follow Him because THEY KNOW HIS VOICE. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE A STRANGER’S VOICE.” (John 10:4-5) “I have other sheep…They too WILL LISTEN TO MY VOICE, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.” (John 10:16) “My sheep LISTEN TO MY VOICE; I know them, and THEY FOLLOW ME.” (John 10:27)
JUST PRAY KIM, LORD PLEASE HELP ME TO HEAR YOUR VOICE!
