Holding on for the last 1/2 hour

“Holding on for the last 1/2 hour...” Waiting on God for something? Moses was too. On a mountain top. Waiting to hear from God. Waiting in silence for six days! It wasn’t until day seven that God called out to him! 


So Moses arose with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up to the mountain of God.

And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we come back to you. Indeed, Aaron and Hur are with you. If any man has a difficulty, let him go to them.” Then Moses went up into the mountain, and a cloud covered the mountain.

Now the glory of the LORD rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day He called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. (Exodus 24:13-16)


Are we in too much of a hurry to wait in silence before God? Am I? “Search me oh God!” May we heed these words from Psalm 46 today, verse 10, “Be still, and know that I am God...” May that truth sink in. He is God! The Omnipotent (all powerful) one! The Omnipresent (everywhere present) one! The Omniscient (all knowing) one! “My soul, find your rest in God alone!”

Are you looking for the light?

Image
Psalms 119:130; The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple. John 8:12; Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” 1 John 1:5; This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:7; But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

Choices

Image
In a world of darkness, I choose the light.  In a world of evil, I choose the good.  In times of sorrow, I choose joy.  When Satan deceives me, I choose the truth. When fears arise, I choose the Father’s peace. When religion knocks at my door, I choose a relationship with my Creator, through the perfect sacrifice of Jesus on the cross for the forgiveness of my sin. When doubts arise, I choose to believe.  What or whom do you choose today?  “Today, if you will hear His (Jesus) voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” -Hebrews 3:7, 8
