What do you think when you hear me knocking through your thoughts, soul and emotions? Do you rejoice and say, ‘The Lord of the universe is speaking to me!’ or is your answer more that you are too busy to listen and God talking to me just doesn’t suit me now?
I say my voice must be heard in the earth as it is in heaven, so surrender to my tapping and reminding you of my presence. I have eternal kingdom reasons to intervene in your life.
Just as the woodpecker bird knocks loudly, echoing around the woodland, wake up to my knocking. That same bird does this to communicate, assist its feeding on larvae, or make nesting places. My knocking also brings words of communication, food and resting places to you.
Today I call you to incline your ear and hear me; I call you to listen to my voice.
Luke 11:28 MSG
Jesus commented, “Even more blessed are those who hear God’s Word and guard it with their lives!”
Luke 12:35-36 NIVUK
‘Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks, they can immediately open the door for him.
