Yes - but it might be better said that 'we need to discipline ourselves to live as the Lord teaches us to live'. If we are to live though our relationship with Jesus Christ then He is teaching us, as in present tense. It is written, "Today if you hear His voice." So "Today" is the day He is...

Indeed - The Lord was always looking for men/women to have a personal relationship with Him. Now I go over this regularly with other Christians, and at least from my experience few have ever 'berated me' for say that. It might just be the churches which I have been at. However!!!! What I do find...

Absolutely - That is why I want so much that everyone should know Him like you and I know Him. Knowing about Him is not the same as actually knowing Him. So often I see people write things about Him but nothing about actually knowing Him. What you wrote was a clear example of what it is like to...

The fact is that going forward you will yield to the Lord. Oh maybe not every time, but when we just realize that we once did not (acknowledge we did not obey His voice) it makes us want to correct that problem - which is what you just testified about. The person with the problem is the person...

Do we not know that Jesus Christ is our Teacher? He once gave me a parable that went like this: There was a man going by a house when he noticed that there was a paper in front the house, so the man wanting to do good picked up the paper and threw in in the trash. What the man did not realize...

I would say the 2 best abilities that you can offer God as a believer are: 1. To actually believe He is there for you, since we say we are believers 2. So 2 must be to listen to Him with our belief/faith and try to obey Him. Were not the Pharisees dependable people and available to do what...

I love the above post because it shows clearly the type of thing Christians honestly go through. I go through similar things and often. That is to say, I have my ideas, and since God's thoughts are not my thoughts I find that He has another idea. I realize that His idea is most certainly better...

When we see things come to life it (born) it happens because a seed was planted. This is true physically for a person to be born. A man's seed is deposited in the right fertile spot. In the parable of the sower we see the same thing happens spiritually, where the seed is the word of God (the...

Jer 3:13,14 ‘Only acknowledge your iniquity, That you have transgressed against the LORD your God And have scattered your favors to the strangers under every green tree, And you have not obeyed My voice,’ declares the LORD. ‘Return, O faithless sons,’ declares the LORD; ‘For I am a master to...

THE COIN COLLECTOR: There once was a newly minted coin that shined and sparkled. What a wonderful looking coin he thought he was. How could any coin be more desirable than him? Yet one day a man walked into the coin collectors shop and looked at the coins. “Many collectors do want newly minted...

God is always moving - It is written that the word of God is alive and active! Jesus Christ is the Word of God - meaning He is the One who is alive and active - and the Word of God part means He talks to us via His Holy Spirit! So the very simple revelation and movement of God that we are...

There is a misunderstanding that goes around a lot. For some reason, which we should know, many think that if they seek Jesus Christ and His small voice, that they will become crazy lawless people. Who tells them that???? Of course, it is the devil that tells them that, but sense their...

Our responsibility is to seek the Lord our God, Jesus Christ, by faith!!!!! He said He put before us both good and evil and to choose good - of which only God is good. So, while we not always be able to pick up on the tricks of the devil, we have a God given ability already in us to choose...

I like the above post!! I always like the verses - but not some people's interpretation - but if the interpretation is that we can hear from the Lord, which is what the Bible is basically all about, then I love it - even if others don't understand! A few things I like above are: "One can...

When the Lord talks about "To Whom Shall I Speak?" He is not asking about who reads but who listens to Him!! To deny that is to deny the omni-present attribute of God. Therefore, it is to deny that the Word of God is near you! Yet the word of God we preach is near you always!! Your Bible is...

Actually No - The logs is the Lord, where as rhema is the utterances He gives you personally. Where as Graphe is the Scriptures or written word as you like to say. For example: Jn 1:1,2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with...

People - the real blessing is Jesus Christ!!! If anyone thinks 'God so loved the world that He gave us the Bible' they don't believe the Scared Writings which is called the Bible!! God so loved the world that He gaves us His only begotten Son - Jesus Christ!! We have Him!! We have Him as our...

First of all - Jesus Christ is the Word of God!! Have we not read: Jn 1:1,2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. Rev 19:13 He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. The...

Ok - it is profound - but I still seem to find hearing from Him weird, because He doesn't think like me at all - He does though indeed have this very profound way of saying things. I mean - I have tended to think I get confidence by just winning a game and I don't think too much about whether I...

Yeah - it is easier to hear from Him in quite places, and it seems better when you are in a beautify place like by a lake with ducks or swans - and it is nice to talk to Him while reading or listening to a bible - of course the Bible is not the Word of God we are preaching nor the Word of God...
