One of the reasons that God tends to speak to individuals at events like this is because they have set aside this time for God expecting Him to speak! How many times in our busy lives do we actually set aside time for God? In our usual routine, we are driven by the schedules in our diaries and find it difficult to set time aside to meet God. We get in to our routine and rush between the events, and all the things we have to achieve in the week, and if God is luck, really lucky, we give him an hour or so on a Sunday morning, and expect Him to get a week's worth of conversation to us in that time, and when He doesn't WE get disappointed!!
Jesus' example to us is that he spent time alone to converse with God many times each day! Before any time of ministry, he would go to a quiet place to pray. After ministry, he would go to a quiet place to pray!! If the Son of the most High God needs time to pray to his Father, how much more should we need this??
Well, I am off now to go and spend some more time with Him!!
God bless
Pastor Pete.
