HAVE FAITH IN GOD BY HEARING GOD\u2019S SAYINGS: IT WILL UNDO\u00a0THE\u00a0FAMINE OF ‘THE\u00a0HEARING OF\u00a0THE\u00a0WORD!’\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I WILL SEND A FAMINE IN THE LAND, not a FAMINE of BREAD, nor a THIRST for WATER, BUT OF HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD . . .”<\/i>\u00a0Amos 8:11-13.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhoever is of God and belongs to Him HEARS [THE TRUTH OF] GOD\u2019S WORDS; for this\u00a0reason\u00a0you DO NOT HEAR them: because YOU ARE NOT of God and YOU ARE NOT in fellowship with Him\u201d<\/i>\u00a0John 8:47\/Amplified.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s\u00a0a great time\u00a0to HAVE FAITH IN GOD, and to HAVE FAITH IN GOD is to give\u00a0your\u00a0listening EARS to the HEARING of the SAYINGS of God\u00a0in the midst of\u00a0many words about us. For we live in such a\u00a0time in human history where there are multiple sayings and itching ears to hear and misconstrue out of context\u00a0in order to\u00a0dissimilate misinformation and disinformation instead of speaking truth in love in the grace. And the Lord God thus indicates because people are not keen to hear the truth and speak the truth, He will give them itching ears to hear falsehood instead, and the effect will result\u00a0to\u00a0the \u2018FAMINE OF THE HEARING OF THE WORDS\u2019 of the Lord God, as we see in many outlets today in line with these stated scripture but not limited.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“My\u00a0son, ATTEND to my WORDS; INCLINE THINE EAR UNTO MY SAYINGS. 21. Let\u00a0them not DEPART\u00a0from thine EYES; keep them\u00a0in the midst of\u00a0thine HEART. 22. For\u00a0they are LIFE unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their flesh. 23. Keep\u00a0thy HEART with all DILIGENCE; for out of it are the ISSUES OF LIFE”<\/i>\u00a0Proverbs 4:20-23.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBehold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I WILL SEND A FAMINE IN THE LAND, not a FAMINE of BREAD, nor a THIRST for WATER, BUT OF HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD: 12 and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and\u00a0fro\u00a0to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it. 13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst . . .”\u00a0<\/i>Amos 8:11-14.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“. . . 22 So Jesus answered and said to them, \u201cHAVE FAITH IN GOD”<\/i>\u00a0Mark 11:12-14, 20-24.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 FOR THE TIME WILL COME WHEN THEY WILL NOT ENDURE SOUND DOCTRINE; BUT AFTER THEIR OWN LUSTS SHALL THEY HEAP TO THEMSELVES TEACHERS, HAVING ITCHING EARS; 4 and they shall turn away THEIR EARS FROM THE TRUTH, AND SHALL BE TURNED UNTO FABLES\u201d<\/i>\u00a01 Timothy 4:1-4.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s\u00a0time to INCLINE your EARS to GOD’S WORD by HEARING and giving attendance to God’s SAYINGS,\u00a0in order to\u00a0be ABOVE ONLY,\u00a0in the midst of\u00a0the challenging times. For FAITH comes by the HEARING of the WORD. For the antidote to overcome the itching ears of the hearing of fables, which is about\u00a0hearing things that are deliberately false or of improbable account is by THE HEARING OF THE WORD, which is the HEARING OF GOD\u2019S SAYINGS that\u2019s capable of diagnosing your triune [tripartite being] for your wholeness, completeness, maturity and totality in the grace. The Faith to PLEASE God [Hebrews 11:6]<\/b>, to have VICTORY and OVERCOME the world system of modus operandi [1 John 5:4-5]<\/b>, and to make our enemies and cohorts work in OBEDIENCE to God\u2019s PURPOSE in contrary to their intended wishes\u00a0[Proverbs 16:7<\/b>], comes by the HEARING OF THE WORD. I mean the continuous hearing of the word of God. And that\u2019s the how to HAVE FAITH IN GOD, to enable one to put an end to the mountains, the valleys, the\u00a0crooked\u00a0roads\u00a0and the rough places that have become the long-standing obstacles in our path of doing life and living godly in the grace in Christ Jesus stead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“So\u00a0then FAITH COMES BY HEARING, and HEARING BY THE WORD of God”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 10:17.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“My son, ATTEND to my WORDS; INCLINE THINE EAR UNTO MY SAYINGS. 21. Let\u00a0them not DEPART from thine EYES; keep them\u00a0in the midst of\u00a0thine HEART. 22. For\u00a0they are LIFE unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their flesh. 23. Keep\u00a0thy HEART with all DILIGENCE; for out of it are the ISSUES OF LIFE”<\/i>\u00a0Proverbs 4:20-23.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor\u00a0THE WORD of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, and revealed to the eyes of Him with whom we\u00a0have to\u00a0give account\u201d<\/i>\u00a0Hebrews 4:12-13\/Amplified.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are many multi-VOICES in\u00a0the\u00a0air 24\/7 in our world today in\u00a0the\u00a0vase multimedia and social media to be specific, that can make and unmake you, just as\u00a0there are many voices in\u00a0the\u00a0Holy Writ BIBLE [BLESSED INFORMATION BRINGING LIFE ETRNAL], but not all\u00a0the\u00a0sayings\u00a0there are of God, as\u00a0there are many other voices. In\u00a0the\u00a0same scenarios, to be closer home,\u00a0there are many voice of men in\u00a0the\u00a0religious circus, that if one is not sensitive by\u00a0the\u00a0Holy Spirit to decipher, one will be victim of\u00a0the\u00a0loads of\u00a0the\u00a0sayings that are Scripturally misconstrued, adulterated, distorted and such like to\u00a0the\u00a0benefits of self-gratification, aggravation and satanic in all sphere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u00a0have to\u00a0be prepared to take and own the responsibility and accountability to yourself, toward whom you give your hearing ears\u00a0to;\u00a0for what you LISTEN\u00a0to\u00a0with your ears\u00a0shapes\u00a0your life,\u00a0every now and then. One is either HEARING to the saying of the WORD of God to APPROVE one, otherwise you may be hearing the saying of men that’s pose to your vulnerability for self-APPLAUD and HYPE, especially in the SOCIAL MEDIA and other MULTIMEDIA platforms; and or by the constraints of the voices to tradition and rudiments of the world, and or by the satanic and cohorts sayings, and or by self make-believe or made-believe, and or by the circumstances of the environment and such like.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is not the time to\u00a0feed on\u00a0garbage [rubbish] or from the waste bin simply because you are hungry and want to feed. Do not make yourself vulnerable because you are hungry for the word of God without checking the means and process in context; you need to be awake, vigilant to ensure you can be assured that what you are giving your listening ears toward, is of the unadulterated and undistorted, which is, THE WORD OF GOD.\u00a0It’s\u00a0important to ensure and be assured\u00a0that you are not listening\u00a0to or\u00a0giving your\u00a0ears\u00a0to unprincipled words\u00a0that are made up and full of SENTIMENTS, PREJUDICE and DISSIMULATION, coded with disinformation and misinformation,\u00a0contrary to\u00a0the truth of God\u2019s word in the grace.\u00a0We are to give our hearing ears in listening to THE WORDS OF TRUTH, that is SPOKEN IN THE LOVE of God in Christ Jesus in the grace that build – edify.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBut SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE [in all things\u2014both our speech and our lives expressing His truth], let us grow up in all things into Him [following His example] who is the Head\u2014Christ. 16 From Him the whole body [the church, in all its various parts], joined and knitted firmly together by what every joint supplies, when each part is working properly, causes the body to grow and mature, BUILDING ITSELF UP in [unselfish] love\u201d<\/i>\u00a0Ephesians 4:15-16\/Amplified.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u00a0have to\u00a0be\u00a0resolved\u00a0in the grace to note\u00a0that what you\u00a0are inclining your\u00a0ears\u00a0to\u00a0doesn\u2019t\u00a0appeal to your emotions\u00a0and circumstances to captivate you in vulnerability. For we have the Holy Spirit given to\u00a0us;\u00a0God’s intent in the hearing of His WORD is to GIVE you a SHEPHERD that will FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, so that you may grow up in GRACE and be established in the FAITH\u00a0[Jeremiah 3:15; Proverbs 4:7<\/b>]. And\u00a0it’s\u00a0your responsibility and accountability in the grace in ensuring you hear aright the SAYINGS of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There’s\u00a0a genuine reality today of falsehoods, adulteration,\u00a0perversion\u00a0and dilution of the authentic and authoritative WORD of God by the deluded and depraved preachers and others in manifold manifestations in the name of Church or Ministry\u00a0[Galatians 1:6-9; Philippians 1:15-18]<\/b>. It’s not surprising because the\u00a0Scriptures has indicated prophetically before now\u00a0that\u00a0Father God\u2019s intent\u00a0is to\u00a0send the upcoming\u00a0\u2018FAMINE of THE HEARING OF THE WORDS\u2019 of God, hence we have to be intentional and resolve to only entertain with our ears: THE HEARING OF THE WORD.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I WILL SEND A FAMINE IN THE LAND, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, BUT OF HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD: 12 and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and\u00a0fro\u00a0to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it. 13 IN THAT DAY SHALL THE FAIR VIRGINS AND YOUNG MEN FAINT FOR THIRST”<\/i>\u00a0Amos 8:11-13.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A lack of the genuine HEARING of the WORD means a lack of FAITH. And Faith is the medium of transactional tender between Man and God. Which means, when\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0a lack, or an adulterated or a fake or a diluted concept to the actual context of God\u2019s Word, one\u00a0can’t\u00a0do any business in the Kingdom \u2013 the Heavenly Business with God. DO YOU KNOW THE EFFECT AND CONSEQUENCES OF THAT? It’s therefore imperative that you wake up from a nonchalant attitude and\u00a0align\u00a0toward a healthy spiritual wellbeing and begin to examine what you are HEARING with your incline ears on your onward and upward trajectory in the grace; this order will enable one to overcome – The FAMINE of the HEARING of the WORD, as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For a NO HEARING of the WORD means a NO FAITH and that means a NO TRANSACTION in the heavenly for your earthly affairs under God. Heaven does not accept any transactional tender that is\u00a0fake or adulterated or perverted or counterfeited\u00a0or polluted and such like; For the only acceptable tender for transactions is FAITH,\u00a0which is derived from the HEARING of THE WORD of God.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, do yourself a\u00a0favour\u00a0and examine what you are hearing and feeding your being,\u00a0if\u00a0it’s\u00a0God’s WORD or any of these but not limited: Man make-believe, traditional dogmas, denominational creeds and byelaws, cultural sayings of the old fables, rudiments of this world, philosophy of men, prejudice and sentimental appeals and such like.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

THE\u00a0ONLY ANTIDOTE TO \u2018THE\u00a0FAMINE OF\u00a0THE\u00a0WORD\u2019,\u00a0IS \u2018THE\u00a0HEARING OF\u00a0THE\u00a0WORD\u2019.\u00a0AND IT\u2019S \u2018THE\u00a0HEARING OF\u00a0THE\u00a0WORD\u2019 THAT BUILD FAITH \u2013 AND TO HAVE \u2018FAITH IN GOD\u2019 IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD IS TO BE VICTORIOUS AND PLEASING GOD.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I pray you\u00a0don’t\u00a0run to and\u00a0fro\u00a0when\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0too late to look for THE WORD. Do yourself a\u00a0favour\u00a0today before FAMINE\u00a0kicks in\u00a0and\u00a0make-believe and\u00a0made-believe takes\u00a0you\u00a0over\u00a0to a vulnerable\u00a0state.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0time to have \u2018Faith in God\u2019 by the hearing of God\u2019s sayings,\u00a0in order to\u00a0undo the famine of \u2018THE HEARING OF THE WORD!\u2019\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Blessed regards in God\u2019s grace and blessedness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“So\u00a0then FAITH cometh BY HEARING, AND HEARING by THE WORD of God”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 10:17.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I WILL SEND A FAMINE IN THE LAND, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, BUT OF HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD: 12 and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and\u00a0fro\u00a0to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it. 13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst”<\/i>\u00a0Amos 8:11-13.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“My\u00a0son, ATTEND to my WORDS; INCLINE THINE EAR UNTO MY SAYINGS. 21. Let\u00a0them\u00a0not DEPART from\u00a0thine EYES; keep them\u00a0in the midst of\u00a0thine HEART. 22. For\u00a0they are LIFE unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their flesh. 23. Keep\u00a0thy HEART with all DILIGENCE; for out of it are the ISSUES OF LIFE”<\/i>\u00a0Proverbs 4:20-23.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy HEART: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in THINE HEART that God hath RAISED him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. 10 For with the HEART man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 10:8-10.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“And I will give you PASTORS according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING”<\/i>\u00a0Jeremiah 3:15.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“But\u00a0GROW in GRACE, and in the KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To\u00a0him\u00a0be glory both now and\u00a0for ever. Amen”<\/i>\u00a02 Peter 3:18.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“WISDOM is\u00a0the PRINCIPAL thing;\u00a0therefore\u00a0get WISDOM: and with all thy\u00a0getting\u00a0get\u00a0UNDERSTANDING”<\/i>\u00a0<\/i><\/b>Proverbs 4:7.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“I MARVEL that ye are so soon REMOVED from him that CALLED you into the grace of Christ\u00a0unto\u00a0ANOTHER gospel: 7 which is NOT ANOTHER; but there be SOME that TROUBLE\u00a0you, and\u00a0would PERVERT the gospel of Christ. 8 But though WE, or an ANGEL from heaven, PREACH any other gospel unto you than that which\u00a0we have PREACHED unto\u00a0you, let\u00a0him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again,\u00a0If\u00a0any man PREACH any other gospel unto you than that ye have RECEIVED, let him be ACCURSED”<\/i>\u00a0Galatians 1:6-9.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the\u00a0defence\u00a0of the gospel. 18 What then?\u00a0notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I\u00a0therein\u00a0do rejoice,\u00a0yea, and will rejoice”<\/i>\u00a0Philippians 1:15-18.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
