“GOD SPOKE!”

Hebrews 1:1-4                                             (ESV)
“1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, “GOD SPOKE” to our fathers by the prophets,
2 BUT IN THESE LAST DAYS HE has spoken to us by HIS SON, WHOM HE appointed the heir of all things, through WHOM also HE created the world.
3 HE is the radiance of the glory of GOD and the EXACT IMPRINT of HIS nature, and HE upholds the universe BY THE WORD of HIS power. After making purification for sins, HE sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
4 having become as MUCH SUPERIOR TO ANGELS as the name HE has inherited is more excellent than theirs.”



Identifying who is speaking to you is quite important, especially when you are not familiar with their voice.  Knowing when GOD has spoken to you is even critical.  There have been many times that I have had a “gut” feeling about something, but that “gut” feeling hasn’t always proved to be what I thought it was going to be.  Sometimes it was FAR from an EXACT IMPRINT of what my inclination was.  

Knowing that “GOD SPOKE” is more than hearing what sounds good to us in a time of need.  Hebrews 1:2 instructs us that “...IN THESE LAST DAYS HE has spoken to us by HIS SON, WHOM HE appointed the heir of all things, through WHOM also HE created the world”.  The first three verses of the Gospel of John states “In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with GOD, and the WORD was GOD.  HE was in the beginning with GOD.  All things were made through HIM, and without HIM was not any thing made that was made.”  Now I am may be very conservative in what I believe GOD is able to accomplish, but the only thing that I understand that GOD is unable to accomplish is go against HIS WORD!  

The people that claim that GOD has told them anything contrary to HIS WORD might need to start listening a little bit more closely?  JESUS “...is the radiance of the glory of GOD and the EXACT IMPRINT of HIS nature, and HE upholds the universe BY THE WORD of HIS power.”  The EXACT IMPRINT of HIS nature (GOD’S nature) is to speak the TRUTH, not deception!  Even a “white-lie” is deception and that is the EXACT IMPRINT of the enemy!  

Knowing for sure that “GOD SPOKE” can found while observing TRUTH in HIS WORD!  “GOD SPOKE” to our fathers by the prophets, BUT IN THESE LAST DAYS HE has spoken to us by HIS SON, JESUS, TRUTH, THE WORD!  THE WORD is readily available for a lot of people, but few there be that seek what JESUS has to say about  any matter.  It is VERY DANGEROUS to ignore HIS SON, JESUS, TRUTH, THE WORD when navigating through “this world”.  But “GOD SPOKE” through HIS SON, JESUS, TRUTH, THE WORD, why should/would we not immerse ourselves in Scripture to discover HIS TREASURES???
