Why won't God hear me?

“The Lord is more pleased when we do what is right and just than when we offer him sacrifices.”
Proverbs 21:3 NLT
http://bible.com/116/pro.21.3.nlt 

Doing what is right. I'm sorry to say, but we cannot do what is right as humans. We try, get enticed, and go back again to our sin. But, we don't have to try anymore. The Holy Spirit helps us to do what is right. But it is you who decides whether or not to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Maybe you've been complaining about God not hearing you, how he doesn't listen. Well, there is no direct way to talk too God, and if there was one, it'd be very complicated. Let me explain about this hearing thing in this story: 
There is a man and his wife living in the same house. The wife is a bit deaf. The husband has tried many times to try and get her to hear properly, but can't. He then goes to the doctor. The doctor says, stand 30-40 inches away from her and call her name. The man did so, and called her, 'Mary!'. No reply. This time he moved a bit closer, and shouted her name again. 'Mary!'. Nothing. This time the man walked up to her side and said, 'Mary,'.


Sometimes we are like the woman in that story. A bit deaf, so we can't hear the voice of God properly. We need to focus, concentrate and listen for His voice. God can speak to you through prayer, dreams, other people and lots more. Try listening for his voice, today.

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
