📖 "Surely the Lord God does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets."
Amos 3:7
There is something profoundly humbling about a God who does not need us, yet chooses to walk with us.From the very beginning, God could have orchestrated every detail of history with no input, no dialogue, no human involvement. And yet, time and time again, He reveals His heart not as a distant ruler, but as a relational Father — one who shares His intentions, invites participation, and delights in partnership.
📖 "Surely the Lord God does nothing,Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets." — Amos 3:7 (NKJV)
Even in moments when He acts without consulting us — such as the decision to send Jesus or to bring about the flood in Noah’s day — He still includes us. He shares. He speaks. He commissions.
He didn’t ask Mary if she was ready to carry the Messiah — but He honoured her “yes.”He didn’t need Noah’s hammer — but He gave him the blueprint.
He didn’t require Moses’ permission — but He met him at the burning bush.
Our God does not coerce. He calls and in calling, He invites us into a holy conversation that changes everything.You are not just a recipient of God's decisions — you are a participant in His unfolding plan.
Every 'yes' whispered in faith… Every act of obedience… Every tear offered in prayer… It matters.
Not because He needs our help, but because He wants our heart.
Reflection:
Where in your life has God extended an invitation rather than an instruction? 🤔
Have you sensed Him sharing something with you — not to demand, but to delight in your involvement? 🤔

Creative Prompt:
Close your eyes and imagine what it looks like when God invites you into something new. Not a command — but an invitation.
A whisper. A stirring. A divine nudge.
Now, using whatever medium you like — pencils, paints, digital tools, or collage — illustrate that moment of invitation.
You might depict:
A door slightly ajar with light spilling through
A hand extended across a table
A scroll unfurled with your name written in gold
A child stepping forward into a garden path, hand-in-hand with Jesus
Or simply colours that represent the feeling of being called and chosen
Let this be less about technique and more about trust. Let your heart speak through the brush.
What is He inviting you into in this season? 🤔
What has held you back from saying “yes”? 🤔
How might it feel to respond not with fear, but with faithful curiosity? 🤔
Closing Prayer:
Father, thank You that You are not a distant King issuing decrees from afar, but a loving Father who whispers secrets to Your children. Teach me to recognise Your invitations, to trust the quiet promptings of Your Spirit, and to say “yes” with the kind of courage that Mary, Noah, and Moses carried. May my life be lived in holy partnership with You. Not out of duty — but delight. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
