BIBLE IN A YEAR: Dan 7-9
ALL-EMBRACING WORD
MEMORIZE: "His mother saith unto the servants, whatsoever he saith unto you, do it" (John 2:5)
READ: John 2:1-5
“Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught" (Luke 5:4).
God leads His children in definite ways. He loves to speak plainly with His own. But when He speaks in coded form using signs and symbols, it is important the recipient of such a message returns to ask for the meaning, or else the fellow defeats the purpose of such communication. John 10:3 says, "To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out". How do you hear from God? Is it in Plain or in dark speeches? May He speak clearly to you from now in Jesus' Name! The Word that God sends to meet your need is all embracing. Psalm 107:20 says, "He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions".
This is the purpose of God's Word in your life. The Word that Peter received at the lake of Gennesaret was all embracing. Many believers are in need of one Word and their lives will never be the same again. The Word that will change your life and impact on your destiny for good will reach you today.
The Word Peter received contained several things. It provided information on what to do, he was asked to launch out. Are you in need of what step to take, which career to pursue or what to do concerning that pressing issue? The Lord will give you the right word today. It also told him where to do it. He was expected to launch out right where he was. If you know what to do but fail to know the right location to do it, the desired result may not come. The Word Peter received also indicated when to do what should be done. There is a right timing for every issue under Heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1). If you do the right thing in the right location but at a wrong time, the result will be futile. For Peter, the time was 'Now'. For someone using this devotional, the time for you to take that step of progress is now. The time to leave procrastination is now. The time for your salvation is now. The time to obey God in that pending area is now. The Word also informed Peter how to do it. He was to throw his nets into the deep. Peter was limited. He had only one net. His catch was limited. The Word equally told him the purpose of what he was doing; to take his harvest of fishes. Ask God for the Word that will solve your problems completely.
ACTIONPOINT: Ask God for the all-embracing Word that will put an end to sorrow in your life.

Hearing From GOD!!!
** A lot of people ask questions like how is it possible for God to talk to people, or how do people hear from God? The main thing that hinders us from hearin is "SIN". One thing i have noticed tho is that even with the sin, God still finds a way to speak to us thru the Bible. But i'm not talkin about hearin thru the bible rite now.
~~ Even with sin God still talks to us. Most of the time we call it conscience. I realized its not really conscience because thru psychology, i learnt that conscience and dreams happen because of our way of life. Now let's go out of it a lil' bit.
There are sometimes when u have dreams that when u wake up and think about them, u have no single idea wot and how it is related to u whatsoever. Now these kind of things are outside dreams they are called "visions" or "revelations". And because they r not dreams we are familiar with we just ignore them. Usually when these dreams get manifested in real life it now seems like a DejaVu.
^^ As for me I hear from God mostly thru dreams and usually i forget my dreams expect on some occasions. I remember most of them because i try or force myself to remember. With visions on the other hand, it usually makes me wake up, or if i dont wake up, it'ld be the 1st thing i remember when i wake up in the morning. @ 1st i didnt notice but as i had more of it i took note of it and now i almost dont miss any of them.
%% It's something We need to develop because it helps Us grow in Christ. OK Now i'm Done
Me'z Out
