In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.
Jesus Christ is called the Word of God because He has the words of God which the Spirit of God takes from Him and gives them to us. He, as God, is always around and has always been around. All things were created through Him., so He is sooooo much smart than we are, and He is just standing there waiting for you to hear His voice and open up to Him.
Considering all that, why don't we open up to His voice and listen to Him?
Then answer is our pride!!!!
Someone might think that there are people not aware of Jesus Christ and who He is. Of course that is not the case because He is standing there knocking with His voice, and that is not to mention that angels that serve Him also have told the whole world.
So then, our pride is the only thing keeping us from listening to the Lord!!
It might show up by someone telling themselves that they have sinned so God won't talk to them, but that too is pride. Who are you to decided not to listen to Him? You must think pretty highly of yourself to think that you don't have to listen to the King of kings and Lord or lords?
But we to think very highly of ourselves.
So what about humility. Well it doesn't take much humility to consider that God is perhaps smarter than you!
If you think that at all you are going to start turning to Him for answers and help, and He is there. He always has been. And He answers you, but will you believe that?
Belief is a choice. You simply choose to not think you are smarter than God, which results in you seeking Him, and all those who seek find.
In the Bible we see that Moses was a very humble man and also that Moses heard from the Lord a lot. My friends, there is a direct connection between your pride and humility and the number of times you seek the Lord and choose to believe in Him!
