The Best Food

Transcript:

We receive everything from the Lord, when our ears are open and we have inclined ourselves to the voice, to the presence and to the movements of God. When we are attentive and receptive, we will hardly go unheard in heaven.

What a declaration and revelation we find in Isaiah 55:2, where the Lord is saying you have been spending all your money on things, people, resources, investments, food and yet, none of it is satisfying. It doesn’t look like you feel loved or special. As a child of God we are also falling into the same trap of hoarding things, thinking we will be content if we have it all! It is a lie from the enemy. Having money or how we spend money will never satisfy us. God is asking us why do we spend our wages and still be hungry in certain areas of our life. Those areas, it feels like there is no end to this agony. It could be emotions, it could be a mind battle, it could be relationships, finances or health. The Lord is saying, today, if you’re spending money, can you listen to God and then spend it, if you’re using your wages, can you try and hear the heart of God for your finances, marriage, dream house or car and then go ahead and spend according to how God speaks to you.

The Bible says, listen to me and do what I say. So this day, don’t just be emotional. There are some things that we want to buy which may be a necessity, it could be as simple as buying food, but, can you be led by the Lord. Can you listen to God and then do what he says, there may be seasons when the Lord will say go out of your way and buy everything and there will be other seasons when God says, don’t buy anything, just trust in me! Jesus told his disciples in one of the journey’s, this time, you’re not going to take money or extra pair of clothes, or even an extra sandal. You are going to walk by faith and see the provision of your father in heaven.

So, it’s necessary that we spend our money by listening to what God is speaking to us. What we need is heaven’s perspective and then, we’ll truly enjoy the best of it all! It will be best in human standards and also, in heavenly standards. Angels will envy us for the life style, for the way we are living here on earth, because it will resemble heavenly standards.
