When God speaks, creation happens. When he does not, chaos.
My prayer is that God will be silent when we stray, that we will miss being in his presence, and that we will return to him.
My prayer is that we will wait patiently, listening for him to speak.
My hope is that we will move toward him in faith when we hear his voice.
When the prophet Elijah was fearful and ran from Jezebel, he hid in a cave.
God spoke to him. “What are you doing here Elijah?”
Elijah responded, “I have been zealous for you.” “Your people have forsaken the agreement they had with you.” “They have torn down your altars and killed your prophets.” “I alone am left, and they seek my life.”
God told him to stand on the mountain.
The Lord passed by.
First, there was a strong wind that broke the rocks into pieces. The Lord was not in the wind. Then, there was an earthquake. The Lord was not in the earthquake. Then, a fire. The Lord was not in the fire. Finally, there was a gentle voice.
The Lord spoke.
Listen for the gentle voice of God. That is the moment he may speak to you. That is when he may create something in you.
