Today’s exhortation – Talk to God
‘”Why does Almighty God connect the release of His power and government through to us simply talking to Him? Because He desires intimacy with us!” – Corey Russell.’ This is saying one of the reasons we pray is for God to be able to have an intimate relationship with us. That only happens through talking with Him and that is prayer! I believe some of the reasons why we find it hard to have a relationship with God is guilt, shame and a feeling of unworthiness. The bible says, Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” (Genesis 3:8,9)
We see Adam hid from God because of sin and shame. I have news for you, we don’t have to hide because of our sin or shame for The Lord Jesus took care of them with His blood on the cross. We are free to go into God’s Presence through The Lord Jesus and we don’t have to hide when He comes calling. I believe God can’t wait for us to wake up in the morning to chat with us. Our words move Him no matter how small and meaningless they seem to us and He still wants to hear them. He says “Call to Me and I will answer…” (Jeremiah 33:3). Behold I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with Me. (Revelation 3:20 ). Amen
