This morning as I began my communion time with the Holy Spirit He asked me what are you considering today? I know by experience now that when the Holy Spirit asks me a question it is not because He does not know the answer and my heart on the issue.

It is because He wants me to identify where my heart is and what are the pressing things I am focused on and to help me make the right adjustments in my believing so I can receive everything He planned for me in the now and not come up short of what He has prepared for me by believing below what He intended. No more partial victories that have a bitter after taste, because they are short of triumph.

The Holy Spirit is never pleased when we come short of what has been promised us. He wants us to receive our full reward in God. 2 John.8 speaks these words of caution to us about our position in God: Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.

Whatever you need to change in your belief system as to what you think about God you need to do. This is to ensure that you stop coming short of the full reward God intended for you. Change your mind and refuse to walk short of what the Lord has promised you which you have worked for to this point and dig in deeper to go through to complete victory and triumph in the matter.

The Holy Spirit then brought back to me the scripture in Isaiah.51:1-3 “Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness, You who seek the Lord: Look to the rock from which you were hewn, And to the hole of the pit from which you were dug.2 Look to Abraham your father, And to Sarah who bore you; For I called him alone, And blessed him and increased him.”3 For the Lord will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the Lord; Joy and gladness will be found in it, Thanksgiving and the voice of melody.

I know that when the Holy Spirit mentions a scripture on listening, I need to go back and make sure of what I heard. Do I understand the true import of what is being said and then position my heart to hear further, the details I may have missed out on in my excitement of receiving the word or just missed. Through this I am able to correctly position myself to hear again clearly what the Lord is saying so I can fully obey.

You see if you are a follower of righteousness which is truly what a follower of Jesus is because Jesus loves righteousness and hates lawlessness. So if you follow Jesus you must be a very keen listener to what He has to say because you are a follower not a leader.

Followers are completely dependent on the Person leading them so they need to be very attentive to what He is saying and not presume or assume on what He is actually saying.Jesus is completely in union with righteousness and walks in complete agreement and surrender to righteousness that flows from the Father which is the number one foundation of God’s throne.

Listen to the Holy Spirit and stop listening to your doubt, unbelief, fear, trepidation and contrary thoughts as you seek the Lord. Don’t seek the Lord believing you already know the answer, but willing to listen to what correction He wants and needs you to make to line up with Him. We will always need to be corrected to move on in God. “Settle that matter in your heart.”

Don’t look to your natural family heritage when you want and need to hear from the Lord. Look rather to and consider the place from where God your rock picked you up from and delivered you.

Look at His ability not your weakness because that is what you need to consider: the fact that nothing is impossible with God. You cannot consider what God did with Abraham and remain in doubt and unbelief so that is why the Lord points out to you to focus on that fact about how He God called him alone and blessed him and made him many.

In other words God increased one man and made him into a nation of men and that is exactly what He intends to do for you, but you must be willing to listen carefully and follow the Holy Spirit your leader.

Did Abraham know what God could do with his life when he started following the voice of God? No but he chose to follow step by step the voice of God and ended up where the Lord said He would be: A great nation because God was faithful to what He promised Abraham. Was Abraham perfect? Certainly not but He served a perfect God who could make him blameless before Him God and hence qualify him to experience what is humanly impossible and become the Father of our faith and nations.

Are you willing today as you have heard these words of life to take hold of the grace imparted through them to change position and again position yourself to listen over again to what thus saith the Holy Spirit to you and turn and follow the voice of the Lord back to the place of triumph through the signs, wonders and miracles which the Holy Spirit will perform to get you back on track with the will of God.

So stop listening to your doubts and start believing and only listening to what the Holy Spirit requires of you and that is complete trust in thus saith the Holy Spirit and stay in that position and refuse to move away no matter what rises up against that word. No human word or satan work and curse can change what thus saith the Lord.

This is why the enemy needs you to step out into doubt, fear and unbelief because if you remain in trust it will surely come to pass as God said it. He has to make you cooperate with the lie to steal the word from you as he did Peter on the water as he walked on it with Jesus. Jesus asked Peter why did you doubt? You started well and walked part of the way trusting the word I gave you to come so why did you now doubt because of the waves and the strong wind.

Don’t let anything move you from thus saith the Holy Spirit.

Make up your mind today and say I will no longer doubt the voice of the Holy Spirit but I will listen and follow till I reach the God expected end of triumph as I partake of His divine nature in my life occurrences going forward in Jesus name. Amen
