Knowing the Things of God

 
What does God think? Did anyone ever think to ask Him? Yes, we can pray to a God who speaks back! For most, this is a revelation in itself. However, it is true, God Does Speak. Have you ever run across a verse of scripture but did not understand it? Here is some good news. Pray and expect to hear an answer from the author Himself.
 
He has given us a way to know all things. Yet, few consider checking in with Him before reacting.
 
What about current political issues? Most of us just pray the way we think it ought to be. Praying is for consulting God on this issue. The majority of us have been taught that we cannot know the things of God. However, this is not Truth! If we were to really know the truth about the current issues we face, we would turn red faced. God’s ways are not our ways. His thoughts are not our thoughts. Do you believe that God might think we are all a little silly? He has given us a way to know all things. Yet, few consider checking in with Him before reacting.
 
For example, what does God think about the current issue of abortion? Just, think about it. For right now, let me share with you what God told me about the issue on abortion.
 
In 1993, I had a number of people asking me to seek God about the abortion issue. I was shocked to find out what He thinks about abortion.
 
Now, I don’t like the idea (of abortion) at all. For Christians, it is taboo. In 1993, I had a number of people asking me to seek God about the abortion issue. I was shocked to find out what He thinks about abortion. His answer came rather quickly. You know how He answers you. When He gives you His answer, it may take a couple of days to sort it all out. It takes the Holy Spirit to interpret the word for us. So, after God spoke, the Holy Spirit began teaching me what I am about to share with you.
 
First of all, God does not like murder. Secondly, He does not want His children practicing abortion. Thirdly, He does not care for those who are not His children. The last thing the Holy Spirit explained to me was this, if the followers of this world continue to kill their children through abortion, it will not be long before the Body of Christ will be the majority. I asked the Holy Spirit to show me in the scriptures for confirmation. So, He took me to the book of Hebrews chapter 12:3-11.
 
There I read where God the Father chastens those whom He loves. However, those that are not His children He hates. Now God does desire that all come into the kingdom of heaven. However, He is not interested in what the world outside of salvation does.
 

“Do you think that you can make God do what you want Him to just because you found a verse or promise in the Bible?“

 
The Holy Spirit began to ask me questions about the issue. He asked me, “Do you think that God is unable to answer the prayers of all the Christians that have prayed for the end of abortion? Does not God answer prayer?” I replied, “Yes, He answers prayer when we pray in His will.” Then Holy Spirit asked, “Do you think that you can make God do what you want Him to just because you found a verse or promise in the Bible?” I really did not know what to say. I had been taught that we could claim any or all of the promises of the Bible for ourselves. Also, that if I find it was God’s will for a generation to prosper all would prosper. Then the Holy Spirit began to ask me more questions.
 
He asked, “Do you think that God looks at all of you as equal?” I responded, “Well yes, we are all equal in the eyes of God. At least that is what I have been taught.” “Doesn’t the Bible say that He (God) is no respecter of persons?” The Holy Spirit had brought back to me the words of Peter and corrected me in the interpretation of that verse. “Do you live like a King? Do you have the same powers as Elijah or Elisha? Has God used you to raise the Dead?” I answered honestly, “NO!” “Then you are not all equal.” The Holy Spirit also, said, “When you enter the kingdom of heaven you will all have a designated place to spend eternity. Not everyone will be in the same position. You are all training in this world for the position you will hold for eternity. Depending upon our obedience to the Lord in this life will determine where we will sit with Him forever.
 

What Does God Think? There are so many things we can know.

 

“For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light. If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Mark 4:22-23

 
However, we must first have an ear to hear what the Spirit is saying to the church. What is the Spirit saying about abortion today? What Does God Think about abortion? What does He want us to do about it?
 
If they (unbelievers) repent and accept Christ Jesus they are no longer of the world. Therefore, they are His. The church should stand in judgment of itself. Not being so busy judging the people of this world.
 

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”
John 18:36
