Should you be listening to what you are listening to? From TV, radio, everyone wanting to pour sound your way? I don’t think so. I wish I had the time to do the research of how much unnecessary sound we allow into our lives on a daily basis, but even without doing so, I am sure many of us listen to too much. Too much of what we will not need or use because of the lack of value in its content.
I cringe when people do not value relationships and so are careless with them as they travel life’s journeys. Every penny adds up, so a habit of saving is to be coveted – even if its savings in a piggy bank. Then I also cringe when people are afraid to tackle challenging situations such as marriage, new businesses, and projects just because they don’t have ‘enough money’. The value of money comes only when well leveraged.
What do we do when attacked by spiritual enemies that will decimate us in the natural? Diseases that claim to be incurable that appear suddenly in a family going about its quiet business? Deaths, divorces and addictions that were not courted or anticipated by families? Business destruction from external forces when we have worked diligently and ethically? Even worse is the fact that they can come in multitudes – a thousand on the left, and ten thousand on the right. The comfort given to those who trust in God come from several sure positions
I keep quiet when I am not sure. Then I watch to figure out if what my heart is saying is not destructive to the greater good. If it is from God and yet does not sound good to me, then I conclude that it can only be meant to bring about a greater good. So it is best to watch and pray.
