Have
you ever cried to God and it is as if He didn’t hear? If it is true,
what could be the problem? God is not deaf, so if your cry seems not
answered there must be a reason. This post explains one of the reasons
why God would not hear you.
Therefore
it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they
cried, and I would not hear, saith the Lord of hosts – Zechariah 7:13
(KJV)
Draw
near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you
sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded – James 4:8 (NKJV)
A
one-sided love will not produce the best in a relationship. When one
person is the only one giving in a relationship, a day will come when he
will cease to give. So also, in your relationship with God, He says
draw near to Me and I will draw near to you (James 4:8); take one step
towards me and I will take steps towards you. Make a move to please God
and He will surely make a move to please you; give to God and He will
give to you, and you know that when you give God with your little hand,
He will give you with His big hand.
Interestingly,
God has taken the first step towards us, in that while we were yet
sinners, God gave His only Son to die for us that whosoever believes
will not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16, Romans 5:8). Now,
God expects you to take your own step towards Him.
God,
in the scriptures, has given us His expectations of us, things He would
want us to be doing and there too He has promised to release great
blessings to us for obeying His instructions. Also, in the scriptures,
the Lord has tabled His heartbeats and passion, such that whoever causes
them to be fulfilled touches His heart and certainly enjoys
overwhelming favours from God. Read more...
