Hunger for God
God never failed us during the times when the Bible was being supernaturally inspired, years ago, and He does not fail us now. His power, His authority, His pervasive wisdom never ceases.
Do this. Hunger for Him. Desire His will to prevail over your own meager one. Do not limit God in any way and allow Him to show you that He, as your personal Savior, is very much a part of your life. He does not desire to speak to you, only through a prayerful coin toss. He is not limited in any way in speaking to you. As a present reality for you, He may use something that happens to you, as a personal parable in your life, but it will always show you that His Word, the Bible, is true. When He does use the Bible to speak to you, however, He will give you His answers to your deepest needs through both obscure and common Bible verses you have read. This is an important reason why it is advisable to spend time reading the Word. He will use it to speak to your heart at other times. Remember, God DOES desire to speak with you and my prayer is that you will hunger to hear Him and will be able to discern His kind and good and gentle voice through His Holy Spirit, dwelling here, now in us.
Be ravenous for Him and have a deep desire to hear Him and, allow Him to be your High Priest, dwelling within you now. As the High Priest of long ago carried the black and white stones around his neck (Urim and Thummin), so the Lord could be directly asked about important, national decisions that needed to be made, so, too, can we consult our High Priest who now dwells within us as our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. And though, these modern times, we do not carry those old stones in a bag from which we would draw, we do walk, often with a certain jingle of change in our pockets or purses. Let God be with you every minute of every day and allow Him to speak to you as you prayerfully toss a coin, trusting in God as you do.
Is He your personal God, as He is mine? He, therefore, can and will speak with you, personally. Your deepest hungers, just like mine, will be answered. How? That's between you and almighty God. What an amazing and awesome God we have! He loves and cares for us individually (as well as He loves the whole Body) and will answer our deepest prayers—in His way and in His time.
James 1:5 If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.
James 1:6 Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. (AMP)
