Today’s exhortation – God speaks
I believe God constantly speaks to us, but we don’t quite grasp it because the things of God are grasped by His Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:14). God speaks to us in many ways such as dreams, visions, prophecies, audibly, impressions, words of knowledge, bible verses etc. Eg. Yesterday I went for a walk during lunch and suddenly fell ill. I abandoned the walk and jumped on the bus back to the office. Soon as I went in and sat down, the door opened and in walked a colleague I hadn’t seen in months. Interestingly someone had asked me the day before if I had seen him recently which I hadn’t. Immediately both of us remarked that God was up to something. Anyway as we spoke, God started dealing with issues which he hadn’t been aware of. We were led to pray and break off curses and chains that had been binding him all these years.
I realised that God had been speaking to me about this man from the day before and also through the illness I had moments ago and so as to know what to pray for him. Remarkably, he had been plagued by the same thing for years. Perhaps you may be going through something like an illness that doesn’t make sense to you and it may be that it needs spiritual interpretation. When God gave Pharaoh a message through dreams, it took Joseph to spiritually discern the meaning. Indeed God reveals to redeem! Amen.
