Genesis 3:8. Don't Try to Hide From God

Genesis 3:8  “And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.”

    The presence of the Lord is terrible to the guilty. His word alone is enough to render all self-justification worthless. At the sound of His voice, the guilty pair scuttles away to hide themselves among the trees.

    If your instinct is to tune out or run away and hide when you hear the Word of God, you are overdue for a soul inventory. What guilty secrets of your past or present have separated you from Your Creator, the Source of life, happiness and hope? 

    God is calling to you today. He has come down looking for you as the sun is about to set on this world. Will you insist on hiding yourself away or will you come to the light before it is forever too late?

The Word of God is bread from heaven. God sent it, but we must gather it, appreciate it, digest it, and live by it. These days it is increasingly scarce. Many are starving for it and don't know it because they keep feasting on bad bread that doesn't satisfy. But if we would learn to carefully gather up the fragments of the True, Heavenly Bread of Life, we would always enjoy a feast of crumbs, because even God's crumbs are miracles mighty to save (Mark 7:24-30). ESPAÑOL: La Palabra de Dios es pan del cielo. Dios lo envió, pero debemos recogerlo, apreciarlo, digerirlo y vivir por él. Hoy en día es cada vez más escaso. Muchos están muriendo de hambre por falta de él sin saberlo porque se alimentan de pan falso que no satisface. Pero si aprendiéramos a recoger cuidadosamente los fragmentos del Verdadero Pan Celestial, Pan de Vida, siempre disfrutaríamos de un banquete de migajas, porque hasta las migajas de Dios son milagros poderosos para salvar (Marcos 7:24-30).
