Selective Hearing

 

Many times, people receive their prophecy and say they do not understand it. After visiting with the person for a while, you uncover what the real problem is. Usually, when they say they do not understand it, it’s their way of saying, “I did not want to hear that word and I want something more (or better) than that word.”

 

Sometimes God will send out a prophetic word and the person receiving it will be ecstatic about it, thinking it means something good and exciting. After a time, they come to realize it was actually an upside-down situation where nothing good came of it because they didn’t interpret it correctly. And sometimes God will relay a message of correction, but the person will not take it so seriously.

 

Even in reading the scripture, it is very easy to get confused, or select the things you want to hear and understand. But God wants us to know what He is truly saying today, and to Pray, Hear, and Obey Him.

 

 

Revelation to Manifestation Part I

 

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling. (Ephesians 1:17-23)

 

What are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints? What is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe?

 

According to the working of His mighty power, which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come, He put all things under His feet. He gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. Jesus received revelation of what He must do in order to inherit His heavenly Father’s throne. At Gethsemane, He yielded to be sacrificed at the cross of Calvary; there He paid the price for all of our sins.

 

This message will give you the revelation on how to receive the answers to your problems; whether it’s a need for work, family, relationships, or the small stuff. The revelation knowledge of Jesus Christ will save you from the pitfalls of life.

 

 

Jesus’s Teaching on Hearing the Father

 

We need to find out what we were created to do on this earth. Where do we fit in this life? Every one of us was created for a purpose and a destiny to fulfill. When you find out what that is, nothing will stop you from accomplishing that purpose. The only way to have success in this area is to know His ways and thoughts, and to obey what He says you should do.

 

Jesus was with His disciples for about 3 1/2 years. During that time, He did many miracles and healings as well as prophesied of His death and resurrection. The major lesson we should all learn from each of the testimonials in the Bible is that He wants us to learn to hear and obey the voice of His Father. (Matthew 16:13-18)

 

 

In HIS Righteousness

 

People get really confused about the word “righteousness”. We use it in puns and mockery or even as a compliment. “Oh, he is righteous.” Meaning he is cool, above par, or fits in society very well. But the biblical meaning of the word “righteous” simply means to be right with God. How are you going to be right with God?

 

Abraham is mentioned as one who was righteous. What made him righteous? He didn’t just have faith to believe. He did what God said to do. “Offer your son; put him on the altar; offer him up as a sacrifice unto me; give me your son.” How did Abraham respond? He made his son gather up the very wood that would be the fiery kindling that would scorch his flesh. He carried it up the mountain and laid him on the altar, ready to take the dagger and thrust it into his sole heir just because God said to do it.

 

Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. (Acts 2:43-45)

 

You take a man like this and see Him as a friend of God because he is willing to do whatever God asked of him. Yet, there are many who do not even believe we ought to tithe! They say, “Isn’t that Old Testament? I don’t believe we ought to attend services because I can worship God on my own. I don’t believe I have to walk according to the way of the church people because, you know, it doesn’t matter anyway. I gave my life to Christ when I was seven years old.” To tithe is an Old Testament commandment and many do not believe that it is necessary for New Testament believers. The fact is that we as New Testament believers are under a much stricter commandment and this verse says it all. God is asking for our all, not just a tenth of what we earn. His plan is to see us all prosper.

 

 

A Light to My Path

 

Sometimes we have to separate ourselves from all the confusion and get before the Lord so that His Glory and Light can give us revelation about what we’re supposed to do. There are many times in life that we walk the path with Him and find ourselves going into a dimmed area. It becomes dark, and we get bewildered and wonder, “Now what?” We need to go before Him and ask Him for His Light that will direct our steps so we’ll know which way to go.

 

To Pray, Hear and Obey is the only way to become successful in life. No matter who you are or what you plan to become, you can only be successful if you are one who has the ability to receive revelation knowledge from God.
