In these pages, few or many of you will hear the heart and the voice that speaks to me these things which I now write. However, I appeal to you at the outset: be as the noble Bereans. "For they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true" (Acts17:11 NIV). I have carried this message in my heart for a few years now. I awakened this day, January 6th, 2010 at 5 AM, feeling I needed to start this message and get it printed for the Body of Christ. Up front, I will tell you I am not a writer, but one thing I do know, the Holy Spirit is my teacher, and if we give any praise, we give it all to Him. I have been a Pastor of one of the best Churches in the world, Living Waters Fellowship in St. James, Missouri. We have some great elders in the Church, who know how to work in their calling. I am so thankful that God has set them in as such. You can find many books in the world right now, and some of them have turned out as really good works, which the body of Christ needs. You can get one for everything you can think of. But like we read in Amos, "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread (the World), nor a thirst for water (the Word), but of 'Hearing' the word of the Lord." Amos 8:11 From Strong's 8085 the word, "hearing" means to hear intelligently, attentively, and obediently. This message of the Kingdom of God might be like so many others, put on a shelf somewhere, and never picked up again. In the book of Revelation, seven times we read, "He that hath an ear, let him 'hear' what the Spirit saith unto the Churches." To me, this stands as the real need. In the Churches today, we have heard many things, but we need to hear them and put them into action. Consider Proverbs 14:15, 'The simple (immature: childish) believe every word; but the prudent man looks well to his going," and Proverbs 20:12, "The hearing ear, and the Seeing Eye, the Lord hath made even both of them." God has made both of them, so I can say, "Blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear." Some will say, "Brother, we will understand it better by and by." After all, it is written, "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of men, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him" (1 Corinthians 2:9). I love Him, and you love Him. So Paul says, "But, 'look here, ' God hath revealed them unto us by his spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God." 1 Corinthians 2:10 The Spirit prevails as the teacher, and we have His Spirit, don't we? Paul said we do. "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that (in order that) we might know the things that are freely given to us of God" (1 Corinthians 2:12) Amen.
