Pr 3:5 not our understanding
Posted : 28 Dec, 2010 07:16 AM

Are you a voice or an echo? Do you hear from God cultivating a personal relationship with Him. Or do you echo what everyone else says is right. Do you preach man's wisdom? A well known verse Pr3:5 says trust in the Lord & lean not to your own understanding. Some people rely upon their own understanding when it comes to God and miss out because they do not have ears to hear His voice. Faith comes by hearing. hearing from God gives you a voice. We are to seek Spiritual gifts and especially to prophecy speaking into existence edification to build the church. An echo is a repetition of the same thing over again kind of like nagging. And a nagging Christianity is what the world sees as negative.

Genesis 9:5

" And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each man, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of his fellow man."

If you read Numbers 22:21-33 you will notice the following if you look :

1) The donkey saw a angel when men couldn't.

2) God did not speak through the donkey, Rather it says - He opened the donkey's mouth so "she" could speak.

3) When the donkey speaks she reveals she knows who her owner is.

4) She also reveals she knows the beating she received was uncalled for.

5) And she also reveals she knows she has always been a good donkey.

6) And that Balaam should of realized this was out of character for her to do.

7) The angel said to Balaam, "if she had not turned away....I would have killed you....but I would have spared her."



Hmmmm........

Shepherdess,

I don't hold this as absolute truth, however I have more than a feeling that since we have a special relationship with Jesus, we are treated as special on the other side of death, so will animals who have a special relationship with us (Christians).

Not trying to convince you,..... but I think so.
