The Predicament of Obedience

Written By Ricardo McGee

1 Samuel 3:15

Divine communication seldom occurs in grandiose forms, but rather in subtle ways that are prone to misinterpretation. Subsequently, we inquire, "Could that be the voice of God?" Isaiah stated that the Lord communicated with him by the forceful influence of his circumstances, referred to as "a strong hand" (Isaiah 8:11). Our lives are only affected by God Himself, and nothing else. Are we able to perceive His influence, or do we view events as mere happenstances?

Develop the practice of uttering the words, "Communicate, Almighty," and existence will transform into a tale of love and adventure (1 Samuel 3:9). Whenever you feel overwhelmed by your surroundings, utter the words, "Speak, Lord," and allocate a period of time to attentively listen. Chastening serves a purpose beyond discipline; its aim is to get me to utter the words, "Speak, Lord." Recall a moment in your past when you experienced direct communication from God. Can you recall the exact words spoken by Him? Was it Luke 11:13, or was it 1 Thessalonians 5:23? As we engage in active listening, our auditory perception becomes heightened, akin to Jesus, enabling us to perceive God's presence consistently.

Should I disclose to my acquaintance "Eli" the divine revelations that have been shown to me? This is the point at which the predicament of obedience confronts us. We defy God by assuming the role of inexperienced deities and believing that we must protect 'Eli,' who symbolizes the most virtuous individuals we are acquainted with. Samuel was not instructed by God to convey the message to Eli; he had to make that decision independently. Receiving God's word may cause emotional pain for your loved one, but attempting to shield them from suffering will create a barrier between your spiritual self and God. By taking action to save someone's right hand from being severed or their right eye from being forcibly removed, you assume the responsibility and the consequences associated with such intervention. This concept is derived from the biblical passage in Matthew 5:29-30.

Do not seek guidance from others over matters that God has entrusted to your own judgment. When seeking guidance, you will consistently align yourself with Satan. "...I did not immediately consult with other individuals..." The reference is to Galatians 1:16.
