Can you see the move of God?

02 May

Can you see the move of God?

Exodus 13:21-22 And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night. 22 He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day or the pillar of fire by night from before the people.

God is on the move. Are you following him or not? How and why do I say that God is on the move you may ask? Surely God has, is, and will always be working throughout time, and his sovereign plan for it will be completed, but, listen to the hearts and testimonies of people who are truly seeking God with all their heart, and you will see the evidence of a move of God, along with the elevated spiritual warfare evident in their lives. God is stirring the hearts of many, and Satan is doing all he can to thwart the plans of God, to no avail in the hearts of His disciples. Those who have truly given their hearts and lives at any level of ministry and discipleship, will testify that they feel this move of God. His living Word is pointing us to the chaos of this world, and the Holy Spirit is bringing wisdom and discernment of it in these days where Satan is peaking before his final defeat. You should truly be fearful of eternity if you are not seeking God in prayer and his word in these evil days that are upon us; his return may be at any time.

God had rescued his people from slavery in Godly fashion, and into the unknown they went into the desert. Moses was a scared leader, but the evidence of God at work in their rescue, and his presence in the desert was before them, for them it was reassurance, but for the rest of the world, it brought the fear of God, and the understanding that he was with them. Take a minute to grasp the greatness of God if you witnessed a likely bold, stormy cloud, in the dryness of the desert, leading an incredibly large group of people. And, what if the curiosity of it allowed you to see the transformation of it into a form of fire at night? That alone would testify of the power and evidence of God to your heart. By faith alone, many may have been saved by that witness over 2000 years ago; God was on the move.

The Bible clearly states in Jesus’ words, that you are called to be his disciple, and that as his disciple you are called to lay down your life for him, (just as he did for you), and go witness of him wherever he has placed you for the day. Luke 9:23 Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. You have a greater blessing than the Israelites did, you have a greater gift that the evidence of God in front of you, you have Jesus living inside of you. With the gift of the Holy Spirit, this brings the wisdom of God to open your mind to the scriptures, and the scriptures give you discernment for the day in a heavenly perspective; you can see the move of God around you, because he has allowed you to. None of this is possible without the Spirit and your hearts pursuit of Him through daily prayer and reading your Bible. Without it you will be numb to the move of God, angry and this messed up world we live in, and worried for what tomorrow will bring. What does the Bible say about your heart, and tomorrow’s worry? Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. We are in the midst of a great move of God, but if you are not pursuing him daily, you will be blind to it all.
