DON'T CLOSE YOUR BIBLE

Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133

We hear many people say they hear from God and you will assume that they read and meditate on Scripture until you talk to some for them to tell you they listen to God directly.
When you hear this, it's like telling people to close their Bible and listen to God.

Some seem to have the idea that
Scripture is old, predictable and gives second-hand information, but direct communication and guidance from God is exciting, living and fresh.This is extremely dangerous.

God may personally apply His Word to our situations as His still small voice speaks to us through it, but there is nothing more dangerous than closing our Bibles to hear from God.

What we do hear when we close our bibles are our own ideas which we then conveniently attribute to God. To know God and His truth, we need to get our mind and heart into the Scriptures. As we live within the revelation God has given for all people in His Word, He will guide us in the particular detail He may have for us personally.

We should also note that His personal revelation to us will always be consistent with, and in the framework of, His general revelation.

 *Through His Word, God directs
our footsteps.*

What has God been saying to you in His Word?

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, please speak to me through your word. In Jesus mighty name....Amen
