Don't Miss The Sound!

Don’t Miss The Sound!

 

“And when you shall HEAR the sound of marching in the top of the mulberry trees, then you shall advance quickly.”  I Chronicles 14:15

 

The Lord, our Baal Perazim (the God of Breakthrough) is confirming His position in our current battle.  Just as He was with David, He is reminding us that His wisdom still supersedes that of the adversary. 

 

When reading this story in I Chronicles (or II Samuel) we discovered that Baal Perazim required  David’s response  to be quick and at precisely the right time.  Let’s consider David’s responsibility.

1.     David had to know the voice of the Lord.

2.     David had to remain alert and attentive in the realm of the spirit.

3.     David had to already have his weapons and be positioned offensively.

 

When we attempt to correlate this story to our daily lives, we must remember that:

1.     David sought the Lord for direction prior to the onset of the battle.

2.     The Lord went before David and “Broke Through” the front line of the enemy’s defense.

3.     Whatever the Lord has done before, He still has the power to do again.

 

I found it interesting that David was told to LISTEN for a certain sound. If we are going to know exactly when to advance, conquer and reclaim our territory; then we must critique or fine tune our ability to recognize a specific sound. Far too often we are listening to and follow the wrong sound!  David’s specific sound was the sound of marching.  Are you aware of the sound that God is using in your life as a form of confirmation? 

 

Next, the sound was in a designated place - the tree tops.  Not on the ground, nor in the air, but in the top of the mulberry trees.  This fact reminds us that the specific sound will resonate from a specific destination.

 

So because Baal Perazim had already preceded David, he (David) was able to be victorious.

Our God is still operating as Baal Perazim today.  He has broken through the front line of defense in our enemy’s territory and is permitting us to recover all!  But we must LISTEN for our specific marching orders.

 

Don’t permit a delay in your recovery because you didn’t hear or recognize voice of God concerning His specific instruction; advising you how and when to advance - and recover all!

 

Just as David did…. Seek the face of God, Listen for the Sound, and March your way to victory.

  • I agree.  If you've had the opportunity to read any of the previous blogs or have heard my testimony they truly attest to those facts.  Most of the readers are leaders who are totally aware of the fact that without faith, obedience, praying, etc... we can't please God.

    In my earlier walk with the Lord there were times when; God's direction may  have contradicted my  understanding.  However, as I have grown in my relationship with the Lord....I can also view His plans for me from the plateau of a loving Father. I have learned to trust Him enough to operate daily from the position  "walking by faith"..  His directions no longer contradict my understanding - but extend to me an opportunity to embrace what I don't understand and to seek Him for a more in-depth enlightenment of His intentions.  

    I've  learned that, w/o faith we are ignorant to the ability to walk in true obedience; and we will not be privy to opportunity to operate in that dimension where we will recognize nor even hear the sounds of this era. 

    Thanks for much for your comments.  God bless!
