Week #16 taken from Isaiah 65:24 "Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear." Have you realized that you can't give God a surprise party? We are the ones who are surprised by life, its' circumstances and of course people. As we think to inform God of our latest discovery, He knows more about it before we speak than we will ever know. What is amazing about the Lord, He listens, as though the things we are speaking of, are new news! He knows our needs before we realize that we have a need. The Lord is at work taking the initiative before we ask.  It is as though the Lord invites us to join Him in (His plans).

A Missionary named Murugan, pronounced Morgan, challenged the church while delivering a deputation message; "Find out where the Lord is working, and join Him there." That message is appropriate for today, though it was delivered over ten years ago. As we pray, let's seek to join the Lord where He is working.
