“God’s voice thunders in marvelous ways, he does great things beyond our understanding.” Job 37:5
Could it be that He speaks to us today through the thunder. As the loudness of its power woke me from sleep this morning, my mind did not just drift back to sleep, it awoke, wondering if maybe, He was speaking.
This thunder, it was heard by the Israelites on Mount Sinai. It has an awesome display of authority, power, and attention. No one can ignore it.
I have desired to hear His voice, audibly, like those in the Bible did. At times He spoke with power and authority, at other times He spoke with a gentle whisper. Though I desire the gentle whisper, I know I give Him no other choice but to raise His voice at my crazy disobedience.
There are times I miss hearing God speak to me today, particularly because I am either expecting Him to speak in the way I want Him to, or because I fail to be still and listen.
Either way, I know God speaks. He speaks to me through His Word and through the Holy Spirit living within me. I also know that one day I will hear His voice audibly, and I long for that day when my ears hear my Father's voice. What a sweet sound it will be.
Have you heard God speak to you lately?
Jesus thank You for speaking to us today through Your Word and the Holy Spirit. Open our ears and our hearts to hear from You as we study Your Word. Amen
