PAY ATTENTION

"My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words." Proverbs 4:20 KJV

When we look at the Scriptures, what did God want from His Children? Really, what was His yearning desire for Israel? From the Beginning of man’s dealing with God we find that God is looking for man’s attention. Even after the fall of Adam and Eve, we see that God came walking through the garden in the cool of the day calling after His Own creation. God was looking for a relationship through which He could bless the entire creation and all Nations too. 

When I pioneered and started a church, everyday I went out on evangelism inviting people to church as one of the strategy for church growth. I received so many promises from them, some would say "I promise to be there this Sunday; others would say I'll come with my family, some same in 2 weeks and many more. With so much hope waiting for Sunday, when that day finally comes, all the promises I got were unfulfilled. This continued for some months until God spoke to me; He said "I am the God of all Harvest, I am the Strategy you need, pay attention to Me and you will see the harvest you desire". I did as He instructed and He did as He promised.

God’s Word is eternal, never underestimate what He can do for you. A lot of times we want God to pay attention to our needs, wants and desires, but we forget to realize that we need to pay attention to Him because He is bigger that anything we desire and He is able to do exceeding abundantly more than we can ask or think. Walk with Him, He will make your life a celebration of His Goodness and His Mercy. 

Further Scripture Study: Psalm 50:15 

Declare This: Dear Lord, I choose to follow after You all the days of my life. In You I have everything that I ever need and want in order to win my world always in Jesus name Amen.
