HEARING THE FATHER SPEAK -- EVEN IN THE WORKPLACE and: "HOW TO KNOW AND DO THE WILL OF GOD." By Os Hillman www.marketplaceleaders.org --------------------------------------------- Editor's Note: Os Hillman is among the rare breed that believes and preaches that the marketplace and the workplace is the proper place to live and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Os asks, "Will the world's next spiritual awakening be led by those in the workplace?" -- Steve Shultz, THE ELIJAH LIST www.elijahlist.com ------------------------------------------------ "My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me." John 10:27 An Englishman tells a true story of his encounter with a Muslim man while walking in the country. --------------------------------------- A MUSLIM AND A CHRISTIAN SHARE BELIEFS --------------------------------------- The Englishman wanted to share the gospel with this man but knew little of Muslim beliefs. The two men talked as they walked and agreed they would each share their beliefs with one another. The Muslim went first and dominated the time of sharing. The Englishman asked the Holy Spirit how to share his faith with the Muslim man. "Do you consider your god your father who speaks?" asked the Englishman. "Certainly not," replied the Muslim man. "That is one of the big differences between your god and my God. I consider my God as my Father who speaks to me personally." "You cannot prove that," stated the Muslim man. The Englishman again prayed to himself, "Lord, how do I prove this to this man?" A few moments later the two men began walking toward two young ladies on the other side of the road coming toward them. As they approached, the Englishman spoke to the ladies and made small conversation. He then said to one woman, "I believe you are a nurse, is that correct?" The woman was startled that a man whom she had never met had just informed her of her occupation. "How would you know that? I have never met you before," she questioned. He replied, "I asked my Father and He told me." The Muslim had his proof. ------------------------------------------- DO YOU BELIEVE HE SPEAKS IN THE WORKPLACE? ------------------------------------------- Many of us do not hear God's voice because we do not believe He speaks or desires to speak to us. In order to hear, we must listen. . . In order to listen, we must believe that He speaks. Ask the Lord today for a listening ear so that others might know that you have a heavenly Father who speaks. - Os Hillman www.marketplaceleaders.org Check out Os Hillman's book below: "HOW TO KNOW AND DO THE WILL OF GOD." -------------- TO ORDER OS'S BOOK, ------------------------------------- "HOW TO KNOW AND DO THE WILL OF GOD" ------------------------------------- Copy and paste into your browser: http://theelijahlist.safeshopper.com/313/cat313.htm?126 More about the book, "How to Know and Do the Will of God" by Os Hillman The scripture says in Jeremiah 17:9 that “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure.
