Elisha Vision – Commentary

Did you know that Yehovah listens to our conversation with one another? Even better, He has a written book of remembrance of our words, if we fear Him and meditate on His name. So, it is not all conversations, but the ones talking about Him! Of course, He can hear every conversation with everybody all the time. But He only has a written record of those who respect Him and think a lot about His name.

“Then those who feared Yehovah spoke to one another, and Yehovah listened and heard them; so a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear Yehovah and who meditate on His name.” Malachi 3:16

That’s not all. He also calls them His own special treasure and offers unique protection for them. God will treat them as a father does a son that he loves.

“They shall be Mine,” says Yehovah of hosts, “On the day that I make them My jewels and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.” Malachi 3:17

Finally, there is a change that takes place, when we talk a lot about God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit. You gain discernment about righteous people and wicked people. Because we are meditating on God, we begin to see how holy God is. The more we get to know Him, the easier it is to find clarity about life and relationships. If we only compare ourselves to one another we may look pretty good. But when we think about how glorious God is, we get a whole new perspective.

“Then you shall again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God
and one who does not serve Him.”  Malachi 3:18

I said last week with Joshua: As for me and my house, we will serve Yehovah!” Let’s talk about Him more. Let our conversations be about Him. He is wonderfully wonderful! Are your conversation being written down for God to keep track of them? They are if they are about Him.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain in season.
