They were able to see in the same direction without distraction. Also, they were able to dwell with one another in understanding. Within your group, allow effective and positive communication to build you up in line with God\u2019s will.<br \/>\n<\/span>Building outside of God\u2019s will is like building a Tower of Babel. The people then, because of effective communication possessed a plain land\u2026a land that had no hindrance but was free from obstruction. Life became too easy for them so they lost focus. <b><i>Genesis 11:4 <\/i><\/b>stated<b><i>, \u201cAnd they said, Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.\u201d<\/i><\/b> When focus is centered away from God, self-centeredness will enter into man. Has the Lord placed you on a ground that is set for your blessing? Do not lose focus or take your attention away from Him. Those people who built the tower of Babel assumed their own responsibility and forgot that the land and its fullness belonged to God. They wanted to use what He had blessed them with to go and investigate His workshop (Heaven). Obviously, God does not tolerate selfishness because it operates in opposition to God\u2019s way. Selfishness represents arrogance and pride. God saw where the people were coming from and He knew where they were going with the kind of project they embarked on.<br \/>\nBy virtue of negative communication, when you begin to build outside of God\u2019s will, He will come down against you. God came down on them. <b><i>Genesis 11:7-8 <\/i><\/b>recorded,<b><i> \u201cCome, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another\u2019s speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city.\u201d<\/i><\/b> Allow positive communication to build you up and move you forward as you journey in life Take yourself <i>out<\/i> of your negative communication, readjust your focus and set your sights on God and He will settle you.<\/p>\n<p><b>Prayer for today: <\/b><i>Ask God to guide you that you not become part of any communication that does not line up with His will for your life.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: One language breeds communication.
