Voice of the Lord!

Listen to this blog.

All of you angels in heaven,
honor the glory and power
of the Lord!

Honor the wonderful name
of the Lord,
and worship the Lord
most holy and glorious.

The voice of the Lord
echoes over the oceans.
The glorious Lord God
thunders
above the roar
of the raging sea, and his voice is mighty
and marvelous.

The voice of the Lord
destroys the cedar trees;
the Lord shatters cedars
on Mount Lebanon.
God makes Mount Lebanon
skip like a calf
and Mount Hermon
jump like a wild ox.

The voice of the Lord
makes lightning flash
and the desert tremble.
And because of the Lord,
the desert near Kadesh
shivers and shakes.

The voice of the Lord
makes deer give birth
before their time.
Forests are stripped of leaves,
and the temple is filled
with shouts of praise.

The Lord rules on his throne,
king of the flood forever.
Pray that our Lord
will make us strong
and give us peace.

Psalm 29

Most of us cannot remember the days before the public address system was used whenever someone spoke to a large group.  The microphone has become an expected part of speaking to many people at once.  Before the days of the microphone men would speak with a booming delivery so that everyone could hear.  When Jesus went out on the boat and spoke to the crowd still on the shore He was using a natural public address system.  The sound traveled unhindered over the water and everyone on shore could hear very well.  When God speaks today you must cover your ears if you don’t want to hear His Voice!

God used His Voice to create the world.  He literally spoke the world into existence.  When God speaks, truth itself is established by His Words!  Listen for the Voice of the Lord when the sound is loud and when it is a “still small voice.” 

When God speaks, eternity vibrates with the Word and reality is defined by His utterances.  That’s why those who run away from God are especially threatened by His Word.  The Voice of the Lord will change you when it touches your heart.  So if you want to be what God wants you to be then listen to His Voice all the time.  Pray without ceasing and listen to His answer continually.  God’s Voice created everything that is and His Voice can create in you a clean heart! 

“Lord, let the sound of Your Voice rush into my ears and fill my heart and mind with Your thoughts.  And may Your Voice change me every day into the image of Jesus Christ.  Amen!”
