When you are in a situation and you don’t know what to do, you need to be able to hear the still, small voice of God. 

One of my prayers is this: “Lord, let me hear You at the slightest whisper at the door of my heart.” I’ve been praying that prayer for many years. It is highly important to be able to hear God at the slightest whisper of His Voice. It is for the saving of lives, to thwart the plans of the enemy, and to change destinies. 

God still speaks. He speaks to us however He knows He can get our attention….He speaks to us through dreams, visions, through His Word, through other people and by His still, small voice. God sent His Holy Spirit to help us here on earth.

If you are having a hard time believing God for something or someone right now, take time to read A LEAP OF FAITH (25 Days At The Mercy Seat)….the full account of God raising my husband from death, walking with us through his two open heart surgeries, and how God healed him from two strokes. You won’t be able to put the book down. Within the pages of the book, you can read about how God spoke to me in natural ways and how obedience to His instructions brought about supernatural results. AND MORE IMPORTANTLY….it will for you as well. 

We live in such a time of crisis in America that it is vital to hear God. The nation is divided. Jesus warned us long ago of what we are witnessing now. Jesus wants us to overcome and to step out and take territory. We must shine the light of God to the world—not hide out in seclusion. 

Remember the account of Elijah in the Bible. God brought Elijah out of the cave and told him to stand on the mountain (see 1 Kings 19:9-12). While Elijah stood there in obedience to God, a mighty wind came, then an earthquake, then a fire and God was not in any of those. Finally…there was a still, small voice….the Voice of God. Trust God…even when you don’t understand. God will reveal the answers to the things you don’t know in time. Refuse to back off of the Word of God. God does not lie. He always honors His Word. He cannot lie…He is God. God will reveal the answers at the right time. 

God is at work behind the scenes on your behalf. Miracles are being set in motion in the waiting. Take time to hear the still, small voice of God–His whisper.

God goes to extreme measures to make Himself known to us…if we pay attention. Many people are so busy with life and can get caught up in the world system to the place of ignoring God until there is a crisis of some kind. America cried out to God after 9/11/2001 and now has tried to shove Him out. 

Salvation is a free gift to us, but it was not free for God. He sent His Son to redeem all mankind. After we accept, believe, and confess…then we move to the choice of picking up our cross and following Jesus. There is a high cost of following Christ. It’s vital to develop an intimate relationship with Him, to hear His Voice at the slightest whisper at the door our heart. It’s for the saving of lives. 

We are greatly helped by meditation in the face of human pursuits, temptations, and in the midst of people vying for our attention. The enemy will use good things to keep us from spending time in God’s Word. Meditation leads us to fix our eyes on the Lord and helps us tune out distractions…even if for only a few minutes each day. It’s vital to our spiritual growth and health to spend time with the Lord. 

Focusing on what we are reading in the Bible brings clarity when we enter into prayer. God will speak a particular passage or verse that leads us in the right direction. Make the choice to meditate on God’s Word so you can see how God is speaking to you. His Word is alive and active. Hebrews 4:12 says, “For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the diving of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart” (New Heart English Bible). 

When the Holy Spirit illuminates a problem, pray specifically. Don’t fall for the trap of talking about the problems–pray the answer found in God’s Word..it’s always redemption, restoration and reconciliation. 

The Bible says, “The entrance of your words give light; it gives understanding to the simple” (Psalm 119:130). “The LORD shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion: rule you…” (Psalm 110:2). 

Think about this for a minute…Adam and Eve, the ones who saw God the clearest, had no instructions on warfare, as their dominion irritated and repulsed the enemy in the same way light drives out darkness without a fight. When the light comes on, the darkness will fall away. Believe me, you cannot afford to react to darkness…you must choose to respond through obeying the Father God. That is how Jesus lived…and we must learn to do the same. Remember, all of our actions come from one of two basic emotions–love or fear. We know Jesus did everything out of love. 

We were created in God’s image–for intimacy. It is when we realize the high cost of salvation that was paid, our role here on earth to walk in God’s love, that we move to the position of prayer and extending hope to a lost and hurting world around us. 

Elevate Jesus..not the problems. Come to the table He has prepared for us….and move into sweeter fellowship and intimacy with Jesus. it will change your personal life, your marriage, and family relationships. David wrote these words, “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies” (Psalm 23:5). We have a place of intimacy with God–and it is in front of His enemies. 

The stage is set…the cost of the gift has been paid. Choose to walk in love and allow God’s light to shine so brightly that the darkness falls away…and people find hope through a personal relationship and encounter with Jesus. It’s the most awesome faith adventure you will ever experience…knowing Jesus is for you!

Jesus cursed the fig tree and it withered up—which represented the Spirit of Religion that blinded Israel. Once Jesus gave His life on the Cross and judged Satan, the Church grew expediently. (Fig tree account is in Matthew 21 and Mark 11). Jesus cursed (judged) the tree. Thank GOD Jesus judged Satan, and as believers, we win in the Courts of Heaven. God is our Judge. He has the final say.

But be reminded, don’t be like Satan and be the accuser, one who betrays people, or withholds information that could set someone free. Don’t look for something to blast someone out about. Satan entered the heart of Judas and he betrayed the Son of God. Jesus said it would have been better that Judas was not born.

In the natural, when anyone steps out to take territory from the enemy, the accuser looks for something to accuse. He will study your past—and can move in the hearts of people who are walking in darkness to be used as an accuser themselves. He can even work through believers. 

For example, when a person steps out to run for any political office—Satan begins to operate through people to study their past, to look for something or someone to accuse to damage that person. Satan attacks anything and anyone who is Kingdom minded and taking territory from him. 

We must learn to attack sin and systems. Good people can get into office and have right heart attitudes, but get caught up in the system. It’s not too late for the CHURCH to arise and stand against the enemy. We must unite together in prayer and walk in God’s love. I have often heard that the church is the only army that attacks her own. 

Rest assured—GOD HIMSELF judges all. He wants the church (the ecclesia) to step out in her God-given authority as the Body of Christ—soon to be His Bride at His return—and make decrees against the spirits operating behind the scenes. 

You might be asking…how do I do that? First, repent from any sin in your own life (wrong thoughts, deeds, actions). Repent for all wrong heart attitudes and motives. Repent for your family bloodline and history of sin—unknown and known. Repent for all negative confessions about yourself or someone else. Repent for not forgiving yourself—because if you are born-again, the enemy will try to heap shame and condemnation on you because of your past. If you are born-again, you are BLOOD BOUGHT by THE LAMB—JESUS CHRIST. There is great power in the Blood of Jesus. The same resurrection power that raised Jesus up lives inside you as a believer. 

The Blood of Jesus answers every accusation from the Courts of Heaven. God Himself has the final say. Don’t fall for the trap of coming alongside anyone who purports to be a Christian but destroys the Body of Christ.

We must arise as the army of Christ. Don’t turn on one another and be used by Satan. Stand strong, pray for one another, love one another—realizing that every single person on the planet is like Barabbas…the one that was freed instead of Jesus.  That is a picture of our redemption in the natural.

I don’t know what you’re walking through—but I pray GOD will give you such tenacity and boldness to find your five smooth stones to face the giants in your life. Run toward the enemy knowing the GOD of all creation is with you. Pray, worship, inquire of the Lord, obey Him…Pursue the enemy, and without fail, you shall recover all. (1 Samuel 30:8). 

God is with us! 

Love,

Deborah
