We are walking in today: Replace Your Sight with Hearing.
(Reading from the NIV this morning) 2 Corinthians 5:7 For we live by faith, not by sight. As we walk like Enoch, replace your sight for hearing. This is a season to hear from God. 2 Corinthians 4:18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. We must be able to hear from God. Stop looking at what you see. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Fiveamprayer we are already walking in abundance, can't you hear it?! It's already done!! Already finished. Romans 8:24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? Your sight will deceive you every time. We need to believe what we do not see. We believe in the existence of objects which are invisible, and we are influenced by them. To walk by faith, is to live in the confident expectation of things that are to come; in the belief of the existence of unseen realities and suffering them to influence us as if they were seen. Romans 10:17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. I don't know about you this morning, but I need to hear a word from God. Galatians 3:2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard? Galatians 3:5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? Back to the word!!! 1 Thessalonians 2:13 For the appeal we make does not spring from error or impure motives, nor are we trying to trick you. Hebrews 4:2 For we also have had the good news proclaimed to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because they did not share the faith of those who obeyed. The word of God must be heard. Romans 10:14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? Matthew 11:15 Whoever has ears, let them hear. Amen, amen.
Faith comes by hearing the word of God. We need to hear from heaven and walk like Enoch walked with God. We can hear from heaven, walking with Him. Don't believe in what you see. The Lord comes now to give us a word. Greater is He that is in us than he that is in this world. The Lord gives us joy unspeakable. We are being brought out by His mighty hand. This is our time, our season. Only trust in the word, fiveamprayer!! He has set us up to win. He can do exceedingly and abundantly above what we could ask or think. Thank You Lord! We come to lay aside every weight that would so easily beset us. We are putting aside distractions--they often lead to doubt in His word. The Lord is speaking to you, are you listening? It is our God who can open a door that no man can shut and shut a door that no man can open. If you are in doubt, not only are you looking at the wrong things, you are not able to hear. Fiveamprayer, we are supposed to be listening to the word of God. Faith comes by hearing, hearing by the word of God. We have got to get to a place and stay in that place of hearing from God. You just can't let everything into your ears. Just like we are to guard our minds, the same is true for what we hear. The devil is trying to distract us. How many times have you heard some one tell you something, and you heard something else. Upon further conversation, you find out that they were talking about something else totally different then what you heard. That misunderstanding can lead to many distractions, divisions or depression. John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Sounds like a tool of the enemy. Stealing our attention by way of distractions; killing by separating groups that are walking in His purpose; destroying by way of putting excessive pressure on the situation, that is not actually true. We have to continue to wash our hearts in the word. I submit that we should not only wash our hearts but also our minds and ears. We must be available to hear from Him. Not caught up in turmoil over things in the world. Are you focused on God's business?! That is what we are all here for. How can you get your orders from on high if you are distracted and not listening. Ever notice how the negative things playback in your mind over and over. You look up and so much time has passed? Distractions can put you off course of your assignment. Stay focused, keep God in your ear. We are to follow the Living Word, not the news-- that can only report on things of the world. Your ear should be tuned into GOD, not CNN. Yes they both have 24 broadcasts, but only one can shatter bonds, bring about deliverance and healing. Fiveamprayer we come to hear from You, Lord and You only. Everything else is just wind blowing past us with no substance nor power. We have this assurance in several scriptures, Mark 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. Luke 16:17(amp) Yet it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one dot of the Law to fail and become void. If you need more substance, look no further. There is no other text of the same age that can be read or heard over and over and still find relevant meaning and truths. The words of the world are soon forgotten and are no more--Proverbs 10:25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation. Psalm 37:1-2 1) Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. 2) For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Have no doubt, we serve the Living God, the Father of Truth. Get in the word, hear from Him yourself. Cast out every thing else. Get the clutter of the world out! It is time for a spiritual cleaning. It is doesn't line up with the word put it out. There are many things that you have outgrown, in this faith walk, things that no longer serve the purpose that God has for your life. Stop trying to fit a bigger commitment to the Lord in your old ways. It won't work.! Stop frustrating yourself!! We are taking new territory, so you won't be crowded but you can't drag all of that world nonsense with you. Clear it all out and hear more clearly from God. One voice, one word, peaceful and purposeful. Thank You Lord, we come to sit at Your feet, to hear a word from You. God is speaking and answering every request, every prayer. Are you listening? Are you focused on Him? It is the Lord who is ordering our steps, follow His word. He is a keeper and a way maker. You can safely trust in Him, He put His word above His name. Since He resides in the heavens how high is that?! God, You are so awesome!! He makes all things possible, there is nothing too hard for Him! Thank You for this day, we are to look to you, not the distractions. We can not put so much trust into what we see, the devil has traps set up, to trip us by what we see. For those in dead relationships, be still and hear from God. We know that He provides for all of our needs, we must listen for His directions. Are you listening today? We need to hear from Him. Thank You Lord for this day, you taught us, You always have a ram in the bush. What ever we need has already been provided for us! Amen, amen. We want to hear from You, Lord. We want to meditate, rehearse and playback all that you have told us. We want your word to so fill us that the clamor of the word is shut down. We lift up fiveamprayer, let those who have ears to hear, hear a word from You. We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown--we need to hear from You, Lord. We must be listening, He is talking to us. Our Lord is not the author of confusion. We ask for forgiveness for not hearing You, all tied up in the world. Thank You for forgiving us with no condemnation. As we keep hearing from You, we can learn how to forgive like You do. Thank You Lord! We are listening for a response so that we can hear from You.
We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.
Welcome to the overflow...
Are you listening?! We can't just be hearers of the word, but we must be doers also. Faith comes by hearing the word of God. The more that you hear, the more you are able to walk it out. The more word we hear then we are not bothered by any weapons that would form, for His word says that they shall not prosper. That is why we must be careful, if the devil can steal our hearing we can be caught up in all kinds of worldly things. We want to walk with God like Enoch, doing the things that please God. Fiveamprayer, just keep repeating, "we need to hear from You God, we are listening," all day today. Surround yourself in the word with music and recordings. God makes a way out of no way. God always has a ram in the bush. If we seek we shall find, knock and the door shall be opened. Keep on seeking Him, listen to hear from heaven. Have a blessed day!
