What do you say to God?

Now this might seem to be a trick question. What do you say to God? You might ask what are the circumstances or what is the context?

I submit to you, the answer to God is "Yes." Whatever He says to you, the yes is an indication of our total devotion to Him and our intention to serve Him without equivocation.

Up to it? The answer to that one is no, apart from the grace of God.

It doesn't need to be complex when we understand that He is Lord...no one else. Hallelujah!

Revelation 22:21 (MSG)
21 The grace of the Master Jesus be with all of you. Oh, Yes!

how do you know, undeniably know, when the voice or urging you hear is God? not something you think should happen or something you want to happen or even something you fear happening?

I have been wondering alot lately how can 1 small word make such a huge difference in ones life!! To say YES will be a life changing decision for us and that's scary...and then I read your thoughts....it feels so right, but saying Yes changes everything in my life as I know it today

A1- How do you know?
1. Test it with God's own word. Is it consistent with who He is?
2. Check with someone you trust who knows God. As they know God, they can reasonably know what He is saying.
3. Take a step. I believe in active faith. He will confirm your faith one way or the other.

A2- Change or no change. It is the only answer to Him. Hallelujah!
