Follow the Prompt

Every day has its routine.
For most of us it has become automatic.
We get up, dress, go to work, come home, go to bed 
and then start all over again the next day.

It is our routine.

But how often to we stop to listen to the prompting 
of the Holy Spirit?

He is quietly speaking to us.
Other times He is loud, yet we choose not to hear.
We choose to listen to our flesh and ignore the quiet, 
inner knowings and promptings.

Matthew 26:41
......but the flesh is weak

The little inner knowings the Holy Spirit gives us are His way
of leading and guiding us into all truth.

John 16:13
However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come,
He will guide you into all truth;
for He will not speak on His own authority,
but whatever He hears He will speak'
and He will tell you things to come.

To hear Him more clearly,
read the Bible, study, 
and 
LISTEN.

The Holy Spirit shows us the heart of God.

Cultivate a relationship with the Holy Spirit,
make it personal.

The more we build on the relationship, the clearer we will hear.

Extravagant!

God's love is extravagant and intimate.
He loves us in a very personal way.

Jeremiah 1:5
He knows us before we were ever formed.

Matthew 10:30 GW
Every hair on your head has been counted.

God takes exquisite care of His children.
Our lives are valuable to Him.

Matthew 6:26
As He takes care of the birds in the air,
how much more will God care for us!

John 14:2
Though we may have troubles in this world, 
God has prepared mansions for our eternity.

John 15:13
No greater love exists than the sacrifice Jesus made for us.

His greatest show of love........JESUS!!!!

His love is extravagant..!
