| Good Morning, Today, I was going to discuss the demonic forces that try to hinder our ability to hear, but I was talking to my daughter this morning about this very subject and she shed some revelation on the subject. So, we are going to talk again about one of the deceptive devices that the enemy of our soul uses against us. It is one of the "greatest" obstacles or snares to our hearing clearly, it isn’t misinterpreting or misunderstanding (even though these are "biggies"). It still comes under the catergory of our dirty filter, it is plain ole’ selfishness. What? Yes, just wanting something said, ‘the way you want to hear it.’ You will find yourself staying on a ‘particular’ subject {that did not come across to you the way you wanted to hear it} and you will search high and low, trying to find someone, anyone who will speak ‘your’ truth to your hearing. So that everthing in your little world stays the same. This is very dangerous, for it will keep you from growing and missing the opportunity to hear the voice of the Lord. He requires you to get understanding of what He is saying to you, He will not compromise His word to satisfy our ‘selfish hearing’ ways. There is a written warning in His word against this hearing problem: "For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and go chasing their own myths" (2 Timothy 4:3). Let’s not look for our own personal "Yes Men", that cater to our hearing desires. Our hearing-aid is the Word of God and the person of the Holy Spirit (who leads and guides us into all truths). So instead of allowing this type of hearing problem to continue, which will eventually lead to your own ‘spiritual deafness’, let’s put some seed in the ground of our hearts. "The Master God has given me a well-taught tongue, so I know how to encourage the weary. He wakes me up in the morning, wakes me up, opens my ears to listen as one ready to take orders. The Master God opens my ears, and I didn’t go back to sleep, I didn’t pull the covers over my ears, I followed orders" (Isaiah 50:4,5). We as the people of God are developing ears to hear for we know He is talking to us. With all of our getting we are getting understanding (discernment, comprehesion and interpretation). So that we will grow from glory to glory in our ability to hear clearly. This week plant Is. 50:4,5 in your heart with your mouth, say it until it is deeply rooted and brings clarity of hearing to you. We will not close our ears, we listen and follow orders! Be blessed, Pastor D. |

Oh my gosh, if this does not describe my morning I don’t know what does! I was shouting from the rooftops somebody hear me! Hear my side! I’m justified! After much noisemaking I realized how funny my little fit sounded and then read these words. ouch! It’s good though, God is good with a right on time word for me!

Amen. That is so true. I thank God for a right now word because it helps me to take a step back before I open my mouth and respond to someone and I mis interpreted what they said or was trying to say because I didn’t really hear them. I know sometimes it is the way that I think about certain things and the response on the other end I have to play back in my head especially depending on the morning that I had and honestly it all comes down to that especially if I don’t wake up on time.
