Welcome to the column of our \u00abDaily word for spiritual edification\u00bb!\r\n\r\nYesterday I was sharing with you what \u00abstanding on your watch\u00bb means. And I said, spiritually speaking \u00a0\u00abstanding on your watch\u00bb means to create around you such an atmosphere where there is no \u00a0disturbance to hear God\u00b4s voice. We talked about Habakkuk who stood on his watch because he wanted to hear God\u00b4s voice, and so he actually heard God’s voice.\r\n\r\nJohn was in the spirit and was lifted up \u00a0to receive the revelation from God.\r\n\r\nDaniel and his friends retreated for \u00a0cooporate prayer together, and God revealed to them \u00a0in a night vision a secret that saved and delivered them from perishing.\r\n
\u00abThen was the secret revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven. Daniel answered, Blessed be the name of God forever and ever; for wisdom and might are his. He changes the times and the seasons; he removes kings, and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding; he reveals the deep and secret things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him. I thank you, and praise you, you God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and might, and have now made known to me what we desired of you; for you have made known to us the king\u2019s matter\u00bb.(Daniel 2:19-23).<\/span><\/h6>\r\nIf you want to hear God\u00b4s voice, then you must be ready to pay the price for solitude or quite time with Him. After the Lord called Paul, he spent three years in solitude with God in Arabia, where he received the revelations from God.\r\n
\u201cBut when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother\u2019s womb, and called me through his grace, to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn\u2019t immediately confer with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.\u00bb.\u00a0(Galatians 1:15-18).<\/span><\/h6>\r\nOur separation unto God is advantageous to us. But you won\u00b4t be able to hear the \u00a0voice of God while spending all of your time only walking through \u201cthe earthly places\u201d. In order to access God\u00b4s heart and His wisdom you must rise up higher in the spirit.\r\n\r\nSo, are you standing on your watch? Are you doing your best to develop sensitivity to the voice of God and so that God can speak with ? Are you creating the atmosphere that helps you to become sensitive to the voice of Holy Spirit? Do you find the time for solitude with God?\r\n\r\nGod will commune with you and open His heart to you, if you will open and prepare your heart \u00a0for Him.\r\n\r\nReceive the grace right now to be able to separate yourself unto God to rise up higher in the spirit and access Divine instructions that will empower you for great exploits in God.\r\n\r\nWe already mentioned earlier that\u00a0God reveals His secrets to those who fear and love Him. He also reveals His secrets to those standing on their watch. In addition to that , God reveals His secrets to those who sincerely ask Him questions.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nStudying the books of \u00a0the prophets in the Bible we can notice, that God\u00b4s prophets continually saw visions and often asked God \u00a0questions regarding what they see. They inquired from God by asking questions like: \u201cWhat is this? Where do we go? When is this going to happen? What does it mean?\u201d\r\n\r\nDaniel, for example, inquired from God regarding the prophetic visions he had received.\r\n
\u00abI came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.\u00bb.(Daniels 7:16).<\/span><\/h6>\r\nAfter this question, Daniel received the interpretation of the visions, therefore, and \u00a0could understand how to practically apply those visions.\r\n\r\nSomething similar happened \u00a0to prophet Zechariah after he had seen a vision of a man with a measuring line in his hand. The prophet asked the man:\u00a0\u00abWhere are you going?\u00bb,<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>then he received an answer to his question and also the interpretation of his vision.\r\n
\u00abI lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand. Then I asked, \u201cWhere are you going?\u201d\u00bb\u00a0(Zechariah 2:1-2).<\/span><\/h6>\r\nThose who never ask questions, never get an answer and never learn anything new. It\u00b4s necessary to constantly ask God questions in order to move on in God\u00b4s plans.\r\n\r\nAre you asking God questions regarding the goals and the task of your life? If your answer is \u201cno\u201d, then start to do so right from today! Inquire of God \u00a0difficult questions regarding your life, because nothing is too difficult for Him. Then you will be surprised \u00a0how He will begin to order your paths.\r\n\r\nGod bless you all!\r\n\r\nRufus AJiboye, pastor","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"God will open His heart and have fellowship with you if you open your heart to Him.\r\n\r\nAccept His grace right now, so that you can separate yourself for God to get higher and access Divine instructions that in turn would dress you up for great feats in Him.
