Ozzone 9-19 > Will you follow The Lord through the difficult times? Can you hear His voice?

 

John 6:66 > Remember, these were not just followers, they were disciples who turned their backs on Jesus when He spoke a hard thing. And there were many of them.

25 years ago I had been suffering for a few months. Unbelievably, I got angry at the Lord and shook my fist at Him. His response was immediate and hairraising – “You have not yet resisted unto blood in your struggle against sin.”

I knew immediately that I was in for a long struggle and a quarter century later it is not yet complete. But I walk with God!

The last two sentences are fascinating! We Christians follow the Bible if we know what’s good for us, but Ozzie seems to be saying here that there may come a time when God will take us into new areas that the Bible might not prepare us for. Then we have to listen to His voice and follow His Spirit. It will never contradict the Bible, but it may require us to make a judgment that is not spelled out in Scripture.
