My favorite time with the Lord is our one-on-one time. When the Lord and I fellowship together, I can be myself and tell Him everything in my heart. For Him to respond is beyond anything I have ever come upon. It was the Holy Ghost that began to talk to me one day while in a sad place. I was crying yet again about the suffering of life, and just when I thought there was no hope, I heard the Holy Ghost say, “You don’t have to cry anymore.” It was actually in words the first time and then sung the second time. When I asked Him to repeat what I heard, I was in shock, but I felt comfort as I repeated what I heard, and my tears stopped. It wasn’t long after that I was delivered out of that place of no hope. The Lord vindicated me just as He does all the time. My deliverance was received directly from the Holy Ghost.
There is something about praising God that gets him to notice you and listen. I guess we are doing what we are called to do, worship and no asking for anything. Whatever the reason, when I worship him, he hears my cry. But with a pure heart, just telling him how much we love and appreciate him. What I learned in my expression of worship was to serve God just as directed in Psalm 72:11 Yea, all kings shall fall before him: all nations shall serve him. I also learned to go beyond simple worship and glorify him as Psalm 86:9 (BSB). All the nations You have made will come and bow before You, O Lord, and they will glorify Your name. By doing these things
SELF-EVALUATION
1. Where do you lack hope?
2. Have you asked the Holy Spirit to help you in that area?
3. Are you ready to be activated to hear not just for others but yourself?
4. What did you hear after you studied this activation?
PRAYER
Dear Heavenly Father of all things, we thank You for the prophetic song of entry into hope and deliverance. We thank You that even when people have no words, You can come and deliver Your Spirit that can bring miracles into our lives and the life of others. We thank You for never leaving us in broken places and having an ear to hear us first. You are a loving God that loves us more than we ever deserve. Lord, activate my ears to hear more than just for others but for myself that I may be a witness of not only what we speak but what we do, in Jesus’ Holy name, Amen.
