The rain was pouring, drops are bouncing heavy off my roof. Windshield wipers are swinging to the max. I hear the brakes screeching from the car to my right. Music is blasting my ear drums out....then in the distance I hear a normal, familiar sound that is distance and unfamiliar to hear normally in my car because of the noise around me, that noise was the sound of a distance but presence BLINKER.....
While driving to work the Spirit began to tune my ear to the sound of my blinker. I mean I use my blinker all the time but I never hear its sound because of the noise that surrounds it.
When I heard the sound....the Spirit began to speak a fresh word on that....
We began to show me of all the noise in life....God is that blinker who is a normal, familiar sound to believers.....but a distance, unfamiliar sound at the same time....
What has been on my heart is really listening to the voice of God.....
That from four Generations...it has went from 65% to this Generation of 4% who is authentic followers of Christ among teens....something has to change...
God voice of change has become so distance from us...that we don't want to hear him tell us that we have it wrong.....
That we only hear and respond to God when he speaks what we want to hear....and that we have this...whatever it is....right....
God I want to hear what is it that we have wrong....so by your Spirit, wisdom, knowledge and direction, can we help change it.
That his voice has become distance and unfamiliar to some of our lives....
That just like the blinker....even when the noise is drowning it out.....doesn't mean that it still is not making sound....
God is still speaking, even if we can't hear him over the noise....
We have to tune our ears to hear his voice about anything else....
How?
You must know how he speaks....diving into his word to understand how he speaks, through him speaking to others is the best start....
He is the same today, yesterday and forever....
We have to drown out all the other noise around us....
When you driving in your car next time...
Let the music blast, and all the other noise surround you....but in all of that listen to the normal, familiar that is distance and unfamiliar sound of the blinker....it will change your life of how God speaks to us....it changed mine.....
