With sin, heaven’s doors closed on humanity. Adam and Eve had open access to the Lord until they sinned, then Paradise was closed to them and for millenia mankind waited on the Savior to open access back the God. In this series, Rudi and Sharon discuss the importance of living an open life before God. Since Jesus, Heaven’s Opening, made a way for us to get back into the presence of Almighty God, we too have to emulate His oppenness to live effective and constructive spiritual lives. 

The question we ask today is: How open to God am I today?

In todays episode we look at open ears before God.

Open Ears.

Keyverse: Mark 7:31-36

If you cannot hear, your speech is likely to be affected also. Spiritual deafness leads to spiritual silence. We must make sure that our ears are open before our tongue is loosed. Get a download from Heaven before we unload to earth. 

How does God open our ears? 

Jesus took the deaf man aside, away from the multitude. We need to step away with Jesus, aside from the noise, distractions, echoes and voices that often drown out revelation from God.

Then Jesus put His fingers in the man's deaf ears. It is an act that seemed to block even more noise, the opposite of what the man actually needed. However, it speaks of God's personal touch. He places His fingers on the problem areas of the mans' life.

The Jesus spat and touch the man's tongue. There was a transfer of DNA. There is power in our words. We cabn transfer our opinions, beliefs, frustrations and thoughts to others through our words, instilling into others what we struggle and wrestle with. What we need in on our tongue is God's DNA. His words, His thoughts, His power.

Then Jesus looked up to heaven. He turned attention to where true help and miracles come from. Gaze above your challenges. Then Jesus sighed. He sighed at the plight of humanity in a sinful world, but also as an end-time confirmation of introducing Messiah rule. Isa. 35:10 Sorrow and sighing will flee.

Lastly, Jesus declared and commanded "Be opened!" We must be open to receive revelations, communications, and instructions from the Lord.
