Day 11
Blow
the trumpet in Zion, declare a holy fast, call a sacred assembly. Joel 2:15a
Strange,
isn’t it, how we survived so well back in the day without cell phones. Now without them we feel like we’re missing a
vital part of our being. What if
someone’s trying to reach me? What if
it’s an emergency? What if the emergency
situation is mine and I’ve got no battery or I left my cell on the charger at
home (at least I hope that’s where I left it)?
You can call me all you want, if my phone is at home or dead, I’m unreachable. The call may go out but I’d be unable to answer
it.
Blowing
the trumpet was a call that would go out within the people of God that would
signal them to sacred, holy action. The
call still goes out today, but the sad truth is some of us can’t hear it. Like a cell phone left at home or dead, we’re
disconnected from hearing the instructions, directions, words of life, hope and
love that comes from or Heavenly Father.
A
“holy fast,” one meant to yield my heart to God, dials me in, raises up my
spiritual antenna and tunes me into heaven’s frequency.
During
this fast, slow down and listen for God’s voice. He will speak.
