 For, in fact, we told you before when we were with you that  we would suffer Tribulation, just as it happened, and you know.
3  You will have Tribulation
John:16.33
 “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world  you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
4. Through many Tribulations we must enter to the kingdom of God

strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting [them] to continue in the faith, and [saying,] ” We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God.”

5.  Deliver to Tribulation

 “Then they will  deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.
6.  You will have Tribulation
Revelation:2.10

Famine of Word of God

Revelation:6.5
 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.
Black horse represents Famine ( Physical and Spiritual Famine).
Physical Famine everyone knows.
Let us discuss about Spiritual Famine which is described in Amos 8:11-12)
Amos:8.11
 ” Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord GOD, “That I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine of bread, Nor a thirst for water, But of hearing the words of the LORD.
Amos:8.12
 They shall wander from sea to sea, And from north to east; They shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the LORD, But shall not find [it.]
When antichrist government will be set up, then it will ban Bible and Church. It will confiscate Bible. It will remove Word of God from internet.  It will lead to Famine of Word of God during Tribulation Times.
Biblical example to overcome Famine of Word of God
Joseph gathered immeasurable grain into storehouse during plentiful years in order to sustain in 7 years of Famine.
Genesis:41.49
 Joseph gathered very much grain, as the sand of the sea, until he stopped counting, for [it was] immeasurable.
Likewise believers should gather immeasurable Word of God ( grain) into your heart ( storehouse) during plentiful times to sustain Tribulation Times.
 
IF BELIEVER DOESN’T GATHER WORD OF GOD INTO HIS HEART, THEN BELIEVER WILL SPIRITUALLY DIE DURING FAMINE OF WORD OF GOD.
 
Richard Wurmbrand example
 
Richard Wurmbrand (1909—2001) was an evangelical minister who endured 14 years of Communist imprisonment and torture in his homeland of Romania.
During his imprisonment, he was beaten and tortured. Physical torture included mutilation, burning and being locked in a large frozen icebox.His body bore the scars of physical torture for the rest of his life. For example, he later recounted having the soles of his feet beaten until the flesh was torn off, then the next day beaten again to the bone. This prolific writer said there were not words to describe that pain.
He was able to survive Torture because he has gathered Word of God into his heart. He deeply meditated during imprisonment and gained strength to endure Torture and was able to be victorious. He was later released.

Matthew:13.21
 “yet he has  no root in himself, but endures only for a while. For when  tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
Make foundations on Word of God so that you may able to endure Tribulation Times.

Learn to listen His Voice

How to listen to God’s Voice?

Best time to listen GOD’s voice is after doing prayer. First , you will speak in prayer, then God will speak after prayer.

There 3 steps to listen GOD’s voice.

1 Be still

Psalm

46:10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;

After prayer, be quiet . Still means that there should be no movement in body and there shall be no noise.

There should be absolute calmness

2 Be silent in mind and heart

PSALM 62:5 “FOR GOD ALONE, O MY SOUL, WAIT IN SILENCE, FOR MY HOPE IS FROM HIM.”

After reaching still position, our mind and heart voices distracts us.

This will remove the voice of yourself.

3. Be gather into oneness

Then He speaks through His Spirit by still small voice.
