Nehemiah 6:1-19; Zechariah 1:1-21; Revelation 11:1-19
Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it. Ps. 119:140
Dogs enjoy human interaction, and experts say they tilt their heads to show they want to continue the conversation. Sometimes it indicates they have heard a word they understand. Other times they have heard a novel sound they want to understand. Do we also listen with expectant ears desiring the Lord to speak to us from His Word? Do we desire Him to show us treasures that we did not previously notice? Do we enjoy afresh previously illuminated truths?
Let us honour the Lord with our ears and listen with full attention when our Lord speaks. —George Ferrier
Speak, O Lord, as we come to You,
To receive the food of Your holy Word.
Take Your truth, plant it deep in us,
Shape and fashion us in Your likeness. —S. Townend & K. Getty
