| Language Of God |

By the way if you haven't noticed, it's happening again in this world we live in. With the birth of the Internet and proliferation of cell phones we are able to speak to anyone at anytime. Communication in this world is increasing in both its capacity and understanding. The only difference is that the world is now communicating on a horizontal plane instead of a vertical one.
I"m sure you've heard the sayings: The world is no longer trying to reach God, but are rather trying to become like God. They believe all their problems and issues can be resolved by enhancing the communication of knowledge with each other. Except that it isn't working, there is more confusion, less fact and waning search for truth now then there everwas. But I know, very soon, God will again take notice and come down to stop this illegitimate plan of man. Here was something going on that He had been trying to get His people to do through Him. Here was something going on that could have had some real effect in the world, some real importance. God knowing the ways of man and their bend for destruction and death had to put a stop to this thing. GENESIS 11:7
(KJV)
Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand
one another's speech.
(New International Version)
Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each
other.
(The Living Bible)
Come, let us go down and give them different languages, so that they won't understand
each other's words! So, in that way, God scattered them all over the earth; and that
ended the building of the city.
"So that they won't understand each other"s words"! This had such an impact on God that He decided to take matters into His own hands and confuse them, give them each a different language to stop them from building this tower to heaven. He knew once they accomplished one thing, it would lead to another and another and pretty soon, they would be an awesome force on the earth. God did not want to have to contend with them at that time, so He stopped them as soon as He could. It was for their own good. There would have been untold amounts of calamity and devastation if man would have been left on his own with them all saying and doing the same things. God is the one who desires, more than anything, for us to be of one mind, speaking the same things to each other, as He would and does to us. This is how important language and speech is in the eyes of God. With His help, we will begin to see the way things can and should be done through His guidance and His Spirit. It is in the integrity of words people working together will begin to build things of importance and worth in their life. Without a true harmony of language there can never be true unity and without true unity, the Church will always be separated and unable to function in the capacity God has desired His Church to function. If we all...don't learn to express ourselves according to the word of words then singularity of purpose and thought will never take place. |
