Praise waiteth for Thee, O GOD, in Sion: and unto Thee shall the vow be performed. O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come. Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, Thou shalt purge them away. Blessed is the man whom Thou choosest, and causest to approach unto Thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, even of Thy holy temple. By terrible things in righteousness wilt Thou answer us, O GOD of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea: (Psalms 65:1-5)
If we are truly one of His there should be no problem hearing the Master's voice. But, sometimes our sIn can interfere with our obedience and our hearing. Just as our kids don't always respond to us the way they should, we rebel for a time against our Father.
But, GOD doesn't leave us that way. He chastises and corrects that we may be disciplined and brought back into fellowship as we ought to be, with GOD and with others. The GOD of Creation loves each of us in such a manner that He will not leave us or forsake us. He is always with us, and ready to respond in righteousness to the call of His own.
He is also ready to answer the repentant prayer of a lost sinner who comes to Him on His terms in complete surrender to His righteousness and judgment. His mercy and grace is given to those that respond to GOD in faith in His finished work on the Cross of Calvary.
He wants you to come to Him and believe His Word for Salvation and to be born again. He is not willing that any should perish but desires a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Trust Him and let Him give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship that is abundant and everlasting. Let Him bless you with His Salvation today.
In Christ,
