FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Is listening to gain the presence of God in your life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John 14 <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you listening to the world around you to gain understanding, not to become a victim of the world?
Listening is giving attention, and attention is listening.
Proverbs 4:1<\/strong><\/em> testifies to the importance of attention to have understanding:\u00a0“Hear, my children, the instruction of a father, and give attention to know understanding” (Proverbs 4:1)<\/strong><\/em>
Jesus also questioned and answered about understanding and listening,\u00a0“Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word.” (John 8:43)<\/strong><\/em>
With listening comes understanding to know God, the truth to live for the glory of God.
All should listen, with understanding, and know that Jesus is the word of God.\u00a0
John 1:1<\/strong><\/em> states,\u00a0“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”<\/strong><\/em>
Understand that Jesu, the word of God, is the truth when He says,\u00a0\u201cI am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>
One who does not listen to understand the word of God, the truth of God, cannot believe and will not know God as\u00a0John 8:45<\/strong><\/em> confirms,\u00a0“But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>
How can you know about God but not know God, to be living by His word?
A lack of understanding testifies to knowing God and living by His word.
Do you know God, or do you know about God?
The majority of acclaimed believers who do not know the truth of God do not know God.\u00a0
One who does not know the truth, the word of God, is not free.
John 8:42<\/strong><\/em> confirms,\u00a0“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>know the truth of God to be free and not live by the standard of the world.
In this world, listening disability not to understand and know the truth of God is rooted in not having time for God.
Will you give attention to the word of God?
Allow the word of God, His light of God?\u00a0
Psalm 119:130<\/strong><\/em> admonishes,\u00a0“The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.”<\/strong><\/em> One with no light of God shall continually experience the challenges of the world of darkness and not experience free, navigating through the world of darkness.
With understanding, know the truth of God and not suppress the truth of God, which is the righteousness of God.\u00a0
Romans 1:18<\/strong><\/em> warns,\u00a0“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness.”<\/strong><\/em>
Let the desire for God become your portion.
Get the understanding that will enable you not to live a life of waste but to live a life of worshiping God, the purpose He creates all for His pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
