Do you find sometimes that when you really need to hear from God heaven seems silent, nothing seems to come. Be still and know that I am God but ........
You are still before Him but He seems so distant . Maybe you sit in your chair or fav spot and spend time with Him but He seems miles away. You read His word and nothing seems to be speaking to you. Holy Spirit come………..but heaven seems silent.
Then the words of a song come into your head, maybe this one, Don’t stop praying. By Matthew West.
The lyrics go ………
What's your impossible? Your "I need a miracle"
What's got you barely hanging by a single thread?
What looks so hopeless now? What weighs down your heart with doubt?
You beg for a breakthrough, but no sign of breakthrough yet
When you've cried, and you've cried 'til your tears run dry
The answer won't come, and you don't know why
And you wonder if you can bow your head even one more time
Don't stop praying Don't stop calling on Jesus' name Keep on pounding on Heaven's door And let your knees wear out the floor Don't stop believing
'Cause mountains move with just a little faith and your Father's heard every single word you're saying So, don't stop praying
Don’t stop praying, don’t stop seeking His face, listening for His voice, spending time with Him and reading His Word. It may not come in the way you expected but it will come. God loves you, you are His child and He hears every word you are saying, He sees every tear you cry, He is the God who sees, the God who knows and the God who loves you. He will speak. He won’t leave you wondering or worrying. May be there are things in your life that need to be dealt with first? Ask Him, whatever it is, His timing is perfect.
Maybe it will be later or tomorrow or in a few days but through something or someone or in your heart, or through His word He will speak to you.
Know that He sees you, loves you, is with you, He knows your every thought and need. He is our God our provider, healer, restorer, our Abba Father.
Times may be tough but he is bringing beauty from ashes. You may be going through the refiners fire but one day you will realise that the light has come, the dawn has broken, there’s joy in your heart and a skip in your walk because the light has broken through and your relationship with Him is so much deeper than it was before.
Don’t stop praying don’t stop believing don’t give up.
