Early morning
Isa 50:4-54 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.5 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned(KJV)
I think of this verse this moring, knowing now why I was waken at 5am... quietly, wishing i could still sleep, but knowing it's purposed that i'm awake. And as it begins to be light outside, I'm more aware of the Light of Christ Himself inside my heart! Oh that wonderful feeling that your body is the temple/tabernacle/dwelling place, where God abides. David had to look to the hills, from whence came his help, but we, born of God, have God living within!
Have you ever just used your faith, and ran inside your own heart to have that encounter with the Spirit of Christ who abides there by your faith? Or have you discovered that you've never invited Him into your heart? I remember the night I did that. It was in 1976. The next morning I noticed that the sky was more blue! The sun was brighter! And the weight of sin was gone from my life! I remember that it was Him that woke me that morning, speaking into my ear, calling me by name! Saying to me, "Remi, open the door of your heart!"
With the door of your heart open, you can see the Kingdom of God. Most people don't look. I had spent 26 years with it closed. Now, I purpose each day to open it to see what ever He wants me to see.
Maybe it's time to stop being rebellious. Did you know that you can't rebel unless you've been taken captive???? Maybe we rebell because we don't know what the yoke is. Maby we don't know that it's a good thing to be yoked to our giftings and let ourself be trained to pull the plow, because then we can earn a living.
Anyway, it's my thoughts this morning. Believing with you for a blessed day..
