God Still Speaks (Part 2)

Wouldn’t it be great to have God speak to you today as He did to Elijah (1 Kings 19:1-18)? Sometimes, when I have a particularly pressing concern, I just want God to speak audibly to me so I can know exactly what He wants me to do. A gigantic, neon signinstead of earthquakes or firewould suffice. Although God may not speak to me in the dramatic ways I would like Him to, He does still speak. Jesuswho is fully God and fully humanis the very definition of truth (John 1:1-14; 10:30; 14:6). When He came to earth, He spoke to us and His message was clear: The one who believes in the Son [Jesus] has eternal life, but the one who rejects the Son will not see life; instead, the wrath of God remains on him (John 3:36). Our sin separates us from God, but, in Christ, we can have a right relationship with God again (Isaiah 59:2; Romans 5:1-11). When Jesus rose from the grave and ascended into heaven, He left with us His Holy Spirit to teach us (John 14:26). He speaks to us by giving wisdom as we read the entire Bible, which is about Jesus from start to finish (John 20:31; Acts 10:43; 1 Corinthians 2:10-16; 2 Timothy 3:14-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21). Hebrews 1:1-3 really gets to the heart of the matter: Long ago God spoke to the fathers by the prophets at different times and in different ways. In these last days, he has spoken to us by his Son .The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact expression of his nature, sustaining all things by his powerful word. Trusting Jesus as your Savior gives you access to God Himself, always. How incredible that we can listen to the God of the Universe in His Word, the Bible, and that we can talk to Him anytime through prayer! When God sent His Son to us, He spoke to us in the most powerful way of all: showering upon us His mercy, grace, and unfailing love. In Christ, God speaks through His Word. Savannah Coleman The same God who created the world and spoke with Adam and Eve wants to speak to you too. Before sin even entered the world, God had a plan to bring us back to Himself (Genesis 13). He made a way for us to have fellowship with Him and the forgiveness that we desperately needed through His Son, Jesus. Do you know His voice?

The Son [Jesus] is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact expression of his nature, sustaining all things by his powerful word. Hebrews 1:3a (CSB)
