10/07/13 Zechariah 10:8 Listen for God's Whistle

 

Zechariah 10:8 (NAS)

I will whistle for them to gather them together, For I have redeemed them; And they will be as numerous as they were before.

 

Zechariah 10:8 (NIVUS)

I will signal for them and gather them in. Surely I will redeem them; they will be as numerous as before.

  
Throughout the animal kingdom, the young ones always recognize the sounds that their parents make.  When their mothers call them, they come running, for they know if theyobey, they will be safe.
 
As the child of the King, you should always be listening for His voice and signal.  He may whistle, hiss, or blow a trumpet.  However He calls, you should respond quickly.
 
When the Lord whistles, He wants to gather you to Himself. He desires your presence and longs to spend time with you. Because He has ransomed and rescued you, you are free to come before Him, for sin no longer has a hold on you.  You are delivered and redeemed forever.
 
Now you see increase continually.  You have become great and Adonai, your God, has enlarged your borders. Therefore, do not think merely in simple addition terms, for God speaks multiplication to you in all things.
