"I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.”
Proverbs 8:17
While in my need to get some answers for the many things that were going on in my life, at a church service, a Pastor prophesied that God would come and wake us up early in the morning to tell us some things we needed to know. Jeremiah 33:3 It was a timely Word for I was in a desperate place and needed to hear from the All Knowing God. Isaiah 40:28 That morning around 3:00 am I felt a shake on my shoulder. I sat up and there was no one there. The prophecy had come to pass and I responded like Samuel - 1 Samuel 3:10.
Have you ever had God to wake you? I have even heard a bell ring. What about you? Is there something that you truly need to know? Maybe you have been asking your friends, your mother, even your Pastor. But God has allowed this situation so that you can come to Him for He alone has the answer and He wants to share it with you.
1 Peter 5:7
God says, "Come Early and Come Alone". Proverbs 8:17
Man says, “The early bird gets the worm”.
The Lord says, “Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Matthew 6:26 (NIV)
Ben Franklin said, “Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
The Lord says, “It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep”. Psalm 127:2
God came to Elijah in a still, small voice. 1 Kings 19:1-3, 1 Kings 19:11-13. In verse 13 He even called him by name, “ What doest thou here, Elijah?”
God says, “What doest thou here __________? (insert your name) like Elijah, have you been trying to hear from Me while on the run or hiding in your own cave of doubt, fear or even sin? Seeking advice from this one and that one? Stop running and tomorrow, Come Early and Come Alone. Let's talk. Jeremiah 33:1-3
Set the atmosphere when you wake up with the Lord by singing the hymn “In the Garden” or whatever your song of praise is to our Lord God Elohim. Psalm 100:4 He loves music.
