Are You Listening For The Still Small Voice of God or Are You Being Distracted By The Loudness Of The World?

 Have you ever been in a place where everything is so loud that you can't hear yourself think?   A place where you are totally distracted by what people are saying and by whatever it is that is going on?   Sometimes that is how life can be.   It can be full of distractions.   Situations in your life can be speaking so loud to you in an effort to cause you to walk in fear that you just can't hear the still small voice of God.    

 

Do you realize that situations have a way of speaking to you.  When a situation speaks to you, they cause emotions to. arise in you.   They can bring about emotions of sadness, joy, faith, and/or fear.   How are the situations in your life causing you to feel?   Are they speaking so loud that you are finding it hard to hear, believe, and concentrate on what God has said and is saying to you?   If they are, remember, God has given you the power to bind up and to cast down.   So do just that.   Bind up the situation along with the thoughts that the situation is producing and cast it all on God.   For God knows how to fix it.   He knows what you have need of in your life and He is the only One that can take it all and work it all together for your good and His glory.

11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake:

12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
