Jeremiah 18, Part 1
The LORD gave another message to Jeremiah. Jeremiah 18:1 NLT
In my Christian life there have been few times where I could clearly say “I heard a word from God.” Don’t misunderstand, I feel God’s leading on a consistent basis through His Word, the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and through other followers of Christ, but for God to directly speak to me about something in specific terms, such as when God told Moses to lead the people from Egypt, is a rare occurrence. It’s a very humbling and welcome experience, but it certainly doesn’t happen everyday.
I’d like every week to include those times when God speaks specifically and directly to me. Wouldn’t you? Would you like to hear from God more often about specific issues in your life…you know, such as the ones you can’t find a direct answer for in the Bible? I have some very specific requests with God right now and some very specific needs. I’m certain God can answer me any number of ways, but there is something so special about having a direct word from God. I want to hear from my Maker!
Over the next few weeks I’ll be doing a late night devotional on my blog. Join me as we draw closer to our Creator God, learn to listen to His voice, and allow Him to speak to us directly; friend to friend, Savior to servant.
What is one thing you would love to hear from God about in your life?
