This morning in prayer, God spoke the color yellow and the word “grave” to me!

The color yellow means a spirit of wisdom and the glory of God!  It also means a gift from God! (beware of deceitful gifts) and to honor one’s natural and spiritual life.  It represents your understanding for the word of God and your desire to seek wisdom!  This color could also denote a cowardliness, or fear in one’s spiritual, or natural life.

This morning in prayer, God revealed to me that it is by His wisdom (color yellow) that we get an understanding!

God showed me that many times He is trying to speak to us, but we are so caught up in our own personal vision (wisdom/knowledge), that we can’t hear what God is trying to reveal or to say unto us!

He showed me that one reason Satan comes bearing false gifts to us, is because it is our desire, and not God’s desires!  This is why when we pray, we should always say, “Lord, never the less not my will, but Your will be done!”  Just as Jesus did when he was in his garden of Gethsemane!

You see, God showed me that many of you are in your garden; as well, you see, Jesus prayed: “Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.”   He was in so much distress that an angel from heaven appeared to Him and strengthened Him.  His anguish was so great that He prayed earnestly, and His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground!” (Luke 22:39-46).

I heard God say to me that many times our cup of suffering (grave) can be great!  In fact, it can be so great that we begin to blame God for all of our suffering!  Saying Lord why me?  Why this and why that happened?  But I heard God say in all thy getting get an understanding!

I heard God say that wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding (Proverbs 4: 7).

I heard God say that many times we run and we have not sought God for an understanding and we fail; not because there is failure in God, but because the failure is in us!  Why?  Because, we have not yielded to the perfect will of God for our lives like Jesus, when He went through His Garden of Gethsemane experience!

But, I hear God saying, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.”  Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.  For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities.  For when I am weak, then I am strong  (2 Corinthians 12:9-10).

This morning I heard God saying, o Israel, return unto The Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity (honoring the spiritual gifts of God).

I hear God saying that it is time to take hold of His word like never before!  The seeds that have been planted in our lives are important!  Why?  Because every-time someone witnesses, preach, are testify to us about the goodness of God, it is an opportunity that has been extended to us to come to God and to allow Him to take away all our iniquities, and to receive us graciously in to His kingdom.

But, I hear God saying that when you get serious about your soul, you will prove it by not just being a hearer of the word, but a doer of God’s word in this season! (Hosea 14:1-2).  You won’t continue to put off what you can do today!  Why?  Because, tomorrow is not promised to you! (natural life).

God is looking for someone who is not just talking the talk, but is willing to walk the walk!  That means you are willing to make a change in both your natural and spiritual life!  You are willing to put away your idols, and you are willing to humble yourself under the mighty hand of God!  You see, God wants to be your God!  He wants to pardon all your sins and he wants to show mercy unto you, but until you put away the gods in your life and make Him first in your life, He cannot make a covenant relationship with you!

Turn!  God is offering you the gift of life (color yellow: gift of God) and eternal gift!  One that is everlasting!  It is free and no phony strings are attached to it!  Want you come!  (Hosea 14:3-4)  The fear of The Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom (color yellow) and instruction (Proverbs 1:7).

I hear God saying, come back to Me and allow Me to heal your sins, and your backslidings and He will be as the dew unto you: ye shall grow as the lily, and cast forth your roots as Lebanon. Your branches shall spread, and your beauty shall be as the olive tree, and His smell as Lebanon, and they that dwell under His shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon  (Hosea 14:5-7).

I hear God saying that He is requiring that you be like Ephraim who said, what have I to do any more with idols?  I have heard him (wise man), and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From me is thy fruit found.  Who is wise, and he shall understand these things?  Prudent and he shall know them?  For the ways of The Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall (unwise) therein  (Hosea 14:1-9).

I hear God making a clarion call to holiness and speaking to the core of your heart to acknowledge Him and to get wisdom which is the principle thing, and in all that you do to get an understanding!  Why?  Because the grave is a dark and lonely place!  It is solemn, place for the burial of a corpse: especially, beneath the ground and usually marked by a tombstone.  The grave is for the fool!  Why?  Because the fool hath said in his heart, there is no God  (Psalm 14: 1).  However, Jesus said unto the woman, I AM the resurrection (grave), and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die.  Believest thou this?  (John 11:25-26).

I hear God saying that it is time to get wisdom and understanding (color yellow)!  God wants to give it to you and He wants to bring you out of your grave: all that will receive Him!  He will do it!  Won’t you let him?

He is calling you to a higher standard of living in this season!
