GRACE FOR THE MOMENT | LISTENING FOR GOD

1. Grace for the Moment

a) "Grace for the Moment" is a collection of thoughts that are inspirational. They are intended to encourage, to give hope, and to inspire the viewers.

b) Reading a thought can change the way you think about something.

2. Scripture Verse

i) Isaiah 28:10 New Century Version (NCV)

¹⁰ So they make fun of the Lord’s prophet and say:
    “A command here, a command there.
    A rule here, a rule there.
    A little lesson here, a little lesson there.”

3. Thoughts

a) Equipped with the right tools, we can learn to listen to God. What are those tools? Here are the ones we have found helpful. 

i) A regular time and place. Select a slot on you schedule and a corner of your world, and claim it for God. For some it may be the best to do this in the morning... Others prefer the evening...

ii) A second tool you need is an open Bible. God speaks to us through His Word. The first step in reading the Bible is to ask God to help you understand it... Don't go to Scripture looking for your own idea; go searching for God's...

iii) There is a third tool... Not only do we need a regular time and an open Bible, we also need a listening heart... If you want to be just like Jesus, let God have you. Spend time listening for Him until you receive your lesson for the day - then apply it.
