Call!

“Thus says the Lord who made the earth, the Lord who formed it to establish it--the Lord is His name, ‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things, [things which have been confined and hidden], which you do not know and understand and cannot distinguish" JEREMIAH 33:2‭-‬3 AMP

As I seek God daily, I get the consciousness that he is always there, speaking, guiding, leading & directing. Today's extract gives a call again, asking that I call to God. It appears that God is saying that i have not even scratched the surface of what he can do if only I talk to him. He is the King of the whole earth, yet his power is not seen, because we who know him have neglected to call on him to show his mighty power in us. We are carriers of his glory, circumstances around us dictate what we do/how we react.

The promise is: I will answer you, and will tell and show  you great and mighty things. Check out men of old: Abraham, son Isaac; David, Gideon, Isaiah, Elijah and Elisha. As close as their generations, dispensations & assignments were, none of them had similar experiences. The outer circumstances were the same, but the inner witness was different. That's God. You can't place him in a box & predict his next move. You can't determine how he does what he does, but you can rest assured that he knows what he is doing.

What he reveals are things we do not yet know or understand. Who best to prepare you for the future than the One who holds it in his hands? Who else to determine your life's course than the One who planned it long before you were conceived? The full dimensions of God's power will not be fully understood down here, but note that what is happening now were spoken of long before now, and God is sending his Word into the future for the next generation, preparing them for his mighty work.

All I can say in response is: "Lord, whatever you say, wherever you lead, help me to just trust and follow". His time of favour is here.
