God Speaks

Had a Praise Night today. It was a blessing. I could hear God speaking to me through the songs. I have been struggling with many different things lately (the future, temptations…). I just didn’t have a heart for God or the Word. In the last two or so weeks, I came to see that I am too preoccupied with other things that kept me from focusing on God’s word.

The song that moved me was “Great is the Lord.”

"Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise
The city of our God, the holy place
The joy of the whole earth
Great is the Lord in whom we have the victory
He aids us against the enemy
We bow down on our knees

And Lord, we want to lift Your name on high
And Lord, we want to thank You
For the works You’ve done in our lives
And Lord, we trust in Your unfailing love
For You alone are God eternal
Throughout earth and heaven above.”

I was reminded once again that without God I am nothing. And that he loved me more than anything. God is worthy to be praised and thanked.
During group Bible study this week, I stumbled over this verse, “There is no fear of God before their eyes.” It taught me that my actions do not show that I fear God. I went through all the things I do and came to realize that many of them prove that I don’t have a fear for God.  In the end, all I can do is remember God in all I do and reflect on whether what I am doing is right and God-fearing or not.
I can’t let anything separate me from God. He is the author of my life and my faith. He loves me with His unfailing love. Thank you, God, for constantly reminding me that you are the greatest and have given me victory though Jesus.
