2 Timothy 2:21- Amplified Bible 21So whoever cleanses himself [from what is ignoble and unclean, who separates himself from contact with contaminating and corrupting influences] will [then himself] be a vessel set apart and useful for honorable and noble purposes, consecrated and profitable to the Master, fit and ready for any good work.
Is God Listening?
Isaiah 59:1-2 KJV
1 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
Do you sometimes feel that God isn't listening? Do you feel frustrated because you are still struggling with the same old pain, the same old trouble, the same old problem?
Search your heart for the answer as to why God seems to not hear your cries. Many times we can find the answer in this passage of scripture. It is sin. It begins with disobedience, turns into not trusting Him, then doubt, fear and unbelief join the sin party and before you know it you are so far from the perfect plan God has for your life you question whether He can hear you at all.
What's the solution? Repent! Simply ask God for forgiveness. If you aren't sure where and what the sin is, ask the Holy Spirit to come and reveal it to you and repent. Then the flood gates of God's blessings are free to move into your life and help you to overcome anything the devil has put in your path.
God Bless
