Listen Up

Deuteronomy 32:1-3

Listen, you heavens, and I will speak; hear, you earth, the words of my mouth.  Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants.  I will proclaim the name of the Lord.  Oh, praise the greatness of our God!

Have you ever looked up at the sky and told everything up there to listen to you? Many people shake their fist in the air when they’re angry, but how often do we lift our hands to declare to the heavens what it is we want to say?

We need to teach that which we have learned to be true (and let it fall like rain)

We need to teach that which we’ve experienced about walking with God (so that it rains like showers on grass)

We need to teach the truths to the next generation (like rain on tender plants).

People can’t hear us if we don’t speak, and they can’t respond if they don’t hear.

Listen up!

Say something!

And say it loud, to where you can be heard, as you voice the greatness of the God you serve.
