Theme For Joyce Meyer Devotional January 29 2021 – God’s Words Agree with His Word
I once sat down to do some writing on a book and sensed the Lord saying, “Take a few minutes and just wait on Me.” I waited for a very short time and then started to make a phone call. The Lord gently said, “I didn’t tell you to make phone calls; I told you to wait on Me.” My desire to do something was not unusual; most people have a hard time being still and waiting on someone, something, or even God.
After I got quiet and waited for a period of time, the Lord began to speak to me about angels—something I certainly was not expecting. He led me to look up several Scriptures and I ended up having a mini Bible study on the power and presence of angels. God has reasons for everything He does, and I believe He wanted me to be more aware of the angels working on my behalf—something I had not thought about for a long, long time.
Joyce Meyer Devotional January 29 2021 Says We Must Know God Through His Word
You may wonder how I knew with certainty that God was speaking to me and that the whole subject of angels was not something I came up with in my own mind. The answer is that I had peace about what I heard. It felt “right” inside of me. My spirit confirmed it as a message from the Lord, and what I heard agreed with God’s Word.
There have been other times I have waited on God and heard a similar voice, but knew intuitively that it was not God’s. We must know God through His Word in order to safely know when He is speaking to us and when He isn’t.
Prayer Starter: Father, I love hearing Your voice. Please help me to always recognize when it’s Your voice, and not just my own thoughts. In Jesus’ name, amen.
