What I Really Need Is God's Wisdom
There
will be episodes in our routine of
living when difficult decisions must be
made. It may be in moments that
are
extremely critical and time-sensitive
and sometimes they are not. But one
thing we want to be certain of is this:
we want to know that we are listening to
God personally and correctly.
How
can we know for sure that we are
listening to God? The answer is actually
quite simple: Just listen to what you
are asking for. If you find yourself
asking for the wisdom of God; you are
hearing from God. We have the confidence
that what ever God says will always be
consistent with His Word. Very
importantly, when Christ speaks to you;
you know that you are hearing Him when
you find yourself compelled to be
patient. Impatience is the daddy to our
failures. We cannot afford to have a
weak or wavering faith. God through the
person of the Holy Spirit is very eager
to exact the wisdom of God in your life.
Determine now that you will spend time
listening to the indwelling Holy Spirit.
It will make all the difference as well
as make you different. Amen!
Sincerely, Dr. Arthur Belanger
