My Uttermost For HisUtmost
"Shut Up"
(based on todays "Utmost for His Highest")
Has God ever told you to shut up?
Today He has: "Are you in the dark right now in your circumstances, or in your life with God? If so, then remain quiet. If you open your mouth in the dark, you will speak while in the wrong mood— darkness is the time to listen. Don’t talk to other people about it; don’t read books to find out the reason for the darkness; just listen and obey. If you talk to other people, you cannot hear what God is saying. When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message for someone else once you are back in the light.-Utmost for his Highest"
Are you shocked can can say Shut up? He can, He does, So do it.
There are times you are so busy you can't hear God speak. Times when you pick and choose your favorite song, favorite motivational scripture, favorite promise and favorite quote that littel do you realize you are OUT OF FAVOR with God?
Why? You aren't listening.
Shut up and Listen.
Some idiot somewhere decided to say evertime you use the word meditation you are a New Ager with a sneaky little plan to somehow corrupt you from the One and Only Living God. OH PLEASE. Meditation just means use your brain. Think about it. Consider. Ponder. Or in this case: LISTEN.
God often won't speak to you because you refuse to listen. If you had heard the "still small voice" maybe you might have avoided the "fiery trial" your are in that got you attention and made you Cry Out to God. Good place to be: Crying Out To God. Now listen to him.
"If there is only delight, I question whether we have really heard God at all."
Oswald Chambers said it and I agree. If your a sugar only sweetness and light kind of Christian I doubt you ever Hear God speak. Your to busy feeding on milk and cookies to notice babies grow up. When things go wrong, do you cry?
Grow Up, Shut Up, and Listen.
God wants to Speak to you Today.
HE wants you to HEAR from Him. Not your CD, DVD, BVD's or MTV's. He is the Living God and according to what Jesus Said if you are Christian you are told you can hear his voice.
Are you Listening.
If not Shut up.
If you are simply say and wait;
Speak Lord Your Servant listens.
