I have been lingering in the presence of the One my soul yearns for daily, not wanting to write something of my own, but something of His heart, His thoughts for us today. The voice of God speaks with such crystal clear, pinpoint accuracy, my interpretation is not necessary. I am one who believes the Holy Spirit is so powerful, He does not need to use many words when He speaks. Most of what we call the prophetic is actually our interpretation, our commentary on what the Holy Spirit said. Sifting through the rhetoric to hear the roar of the voice of God can be challenging, time consuming and is what causes disappointment fatigue. The desire of people to be seen and heard by other people is what muddies the waters of the pure unadulterated voice of God. We have had to learn to eat the meat and spit out the bones, but the days of men’s commentaries is over and the days of God’s voice is upon us.

New mouthpieces will carry the sound in the airwaves; the message will not be muddied any longer; the character of the communicators will not be stained any more. It is as though the Lord is cleaning the glasses of His people and pulling the wax out of their ears so they can hear, not the voice of people clearly, but the voice of God. Once you hear the voice of God, the voices of people will fade into the distance and dissolve from your mind. The voice of God will vibrate inside of you, for Christ in you is the hope of glory. Listen to the vibrations in you, follow the voice of the Spirit of God, for obedience to His voice will propel you, strengthen you and restore peace to you.

Here is what I am hearing right now, “Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” (1 Peter 5:5) 5:5 in the military means loud and clear. Can you hear what the spirit is saying to us the church? We have stepped into a place of everyone being humbled so God can release grace. The imagery I saw is that of an airplane flying into the wind and how much work it takes to fly against the path of wind, versus how when a plane flies in the direction of the wind, there is an acceleration that happens. Pride is why we are resisted, and humility is how we acclerate. God is humbling humanity right now, so we can be graced with acceleration. It is time to get dressed in biblical humility which is confidence in and obedience to the voice of God.
