Journal What God Speaks

Do You Remember Everything that God Says to You?

Probably not! I have found that if I do not write it down, I quickly forget. When God speaks it is always with a purpose and it is important to write it down? And if I really find it important I would read it over and over again until I fully understood what He is trying to tell me.

Many times we get goose bumps when we know that God has given us a word. Often we share it with others and sometimes we even journal it. But many times we get busy with life and forget over time. We just don’t follow through.

His thoughts toward us are like the sand of the sea! How can we ever contain them all? I have found journaling to be a great way to contain what God speaks to my heart.

How precious and weighty also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them! [Ps 40:5.] If I could count them, they would be more in number than the sand. When I awoke, [could I count to the end] I would still be with You. Ps 139:17-18 AMP

Let’s start following through with what God speaks to our heart.

I find that when I create a special place for my relationship with God, I view it as sacred. I can’t wait to go there, pick up my journal, hold it in my hands and pray over it, declaring God’s Word over my life and the lives of my loved ones.

I regularly take several hours and have a personal retreat with God and I am amazed at what God reveals to me. Every year I transfer God’s directives to my new journal and continue to add to it. I pray over His directives for my life and determine to walk in obedience to what He tells me to do.

The person who has My commands and keeps them is the one who [really] loves Me; and whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I [too] will love him and will show (reveal, manifest) Myself to him. [I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.] John 14:21 AMP

Did you hear that? When you hold onto God’s commands and keep them; obeying them, God will reveal, manifest Himself to you. He will let Himself be clearly seen by you and Make Himself real to you!

WOW, I don’t know about you, but I want my relationship with God to be like that! “REAL”

The word “keep” in the above verse, in Greek means to hold fast, to watch, to guard by keeping your eye upon something.

I am committing to guard His words to me, to keeping my eye upon them and holding them fast and walking them out in obedience. I want God to manifest Himself to me in a personal way.

How about you?

Do you want to hear clearly from God? Do you want to see what He is doing in your life? Then take Gods word seriously and obey Him.
