Jesus says: My sheep hear MY voice. And I know them. And they follow ME. (Jn. 10:27)
Jesus speaks to us, HIS elect, HIS children. Jesus guides us as we walk on this earth so we can go in HIS way, following HIM doing that which HE says.
We learn to hear HIM when HE brings information to us. We know HIS voice and a voice of a stranger we will not follow but we will flee from the voice of a stranger. (Jn. 10:4-5)
It is very important for each of us to collect those scriptures which are called to our attention by the Holy Spirit bringing those scriptures to our mind for we must keep those specific scriptures before us to give us the strength to go in the instruction of those scriptures as we walk on this earth.
Those scriptures brought by the Holy Spirit to our minds are special messages from God at that point in time to us!
They are exactly what we need!
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in HIS law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
We see the same promise in the following scripture:
Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
Proverbs 4:20-23 God says:
20 My son, attend to MY words; incline thine ear unto MY sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
When we see that Word from God, but do not know how to do that Word in our lives, we can ask God for His wisdom. God promises to give us HIS wisdom when we ask in faith for wisdom.
James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Let us learn to call on God immediately each time we are frightened or each time we need help.
God will show us what to do and give us that which we need to enable us to go forward in peace and in success and in assurance on this present earth as long as God chooses to leave us on this earth.
