I Am Christian's Ears

 

ISAIAH 6:8

Also I heard the voice of The Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

    I am Christian's ears and I hear the voice of The Lord speaking to me, too. And like the prophet Isaiah, Christian's mouth said, "Lord, here am I; send me." 

    I hear The Lord speaking to me when I am silent before Him ~ Psalm 46:10; Habakkuk 2:20; Zechariah 2:13. 

    I hear The Lord singing over me ~ Zephaniah 3:17.

    I hear Him in the night ~ Job 35:10; Psalm 42:8.

    I hear His voice in the garden ~ John 17; John 20:18. 

I hear Him speaking to me in The Scriptures ~ Jeremiah 7:2; Nehemiah 8:1-6. 

    I am Christian's ears and when I hear my Lord speaking to me, I am attentive and ready my heart to be obedient to His direction. 

    I hear Him call my name ~ John 3:16, 17; Romans 10:13 ~ I am a whosoever. First He calls me to serve Him, then He calls me friend ~ John 15:15. 

    I hear The Lord call me to obedience to His Word ~ John 15:14; 1 John 2:3, 5:3. 

    I hear Him calling me to pick up my cross and carry it ~ Mark 8:34.

    I hear His voice telling me that I will suffer for Him - 1 Peter 2:21.

    I hear the voice of The Lord calling me to forgive every offense and every slight and every sin against me, that He might be able to forgive me ~ Matthew 6:14, 15.

     I hear the voice of The Lord calling me to rest in Him ~ Matthew 11:28.

    I am Christian's ears. I hear, I listen, I learn.

A Crucified Life - - Regards Christ as Christ

 

2 Corinthians 5:16
From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard Him thus no longer.

*Strong's Ex. Conc. No. 1492
Regard: be aware, behold, consider, perceive
From the Greek word 'eidó' (pronounced i'-do): I know, remember, appreciate



    When first we learned of Jesus, we thought of Him only as a wonderful Teacher, a great Prophet, a Man of God. But now, now that we know Him for who He is, the only begotten Son of God who took our sins upon Himself, dying in our stead and rising up from the dead. Where, after a few more days on this earth, He then ascended into heaven where He is seated at the right hand of God interceding on our behalf, on behalf of His followers who are still here. 
    Once we only saw His marvelous miracles as wonders, now we see His face, dimly but getting clearer day by day. We see from a great distance with the eyes of our faith. 
    There was a time when we what we knew with the understanding of a child bridged the gap between the head and the heart, revealing Christ Jesus for who He is. We have moved beyond reading the printed Word on a page to seeing the Living Word written on our hearts. While we do not comprehend or understand everything we read yet, we remember that we did not know everything when we were mere infants or children, either. It is a seeing that becomes a knowing.
    In our natural bodies we first learned to turn our bodies to the ground, then crawl, then walk and run. Learning to walk by faith is just as essential for the born again creation that we are in moving forward in our daily lives when we live for Christ. 
    While my faith in Christ is no longer in the crawling stage, even as a maturer Christian, I am still learning how to walk by faith. I believe what God says is Truth and that His promises will come to pass. I have believed on the Name of His Son for my salvation. Therefore, knowing this wonderful joy I pray for each and every one of you to know this joy that I have to be yours. 
    When Jesus asked His disciples if they knew who He was, Peter responded, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” (Matthew 16:16; Mark 8:29; Luke 9:20; John 6:68, 69). 
    Do you know my Jesus? Do you want to? 
Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved."
John 1:12 "But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name."
