God lives and works today.
However, isn't it a sign of our times
that people are so captivated by the countless
voices of our world that they can't hear
the voice of God anymore?
Unless we listen to and obey His voice,
we can't experience that He lives and works
today.
If you long to have this blocked line
of communication opened again in your life, listen
to today's meditation by Basilia Schlink called, Sources
of Power.
What are the sounds of this century?
The noise of planes in the air, in
the streets the sounds of cars and motorcycles,
radios and TV sets blaring from the windows.
Behind all this noise is a definite plan
and the prince of this world, Satan.
He is trying to drown out God's voice
amid all the other voices of our times
so that people no longer hear it.
Yes, in this era of noise, Satan is
waging a war against the Almighty.
He's determined to drown out God's voice because
he knows if people don't listen to God
anymore, they won't obey Him.
And so those of us who love God
are being called to fight back against Satan
by considering quiet of utmost importance.
We must eagerly seek out times to be
quiet with the Lord so that we can
listen to His voice and grow into a
deeper relationship of love.
Love seeks to have fellowship and to be
united with its beloved.
For this reason, Jesus is so eager for
us to enter into the quiet, to give
Him hours in which we are alone with
Him, hours when everything in and around us
becomes quiet.
At such times, Jesus will bind us to
Himself in faith, filling us with His divine
life and showering us with His love.
And then a transformation can take place, which
can't happen simply by going to one Bible
study after another or by reading one book
after another.
For what we read and hear cannot influence
our life unless it becomes our life.
And this life, which is life eternal, is
born in a soul that is quiet before
God.
One of our spiritual guidelines by which we
seek to live on our little land of
Canaan says, God seeks your soul.
He wants to speak with you.
He wants to manifest Himself to you.
But He speaks only when all is silent
in you and around you.
So seek stillness and solitude.
It will give you the greatest blessing, communion
with the living God.
