Toll-Free Calls
Jeremiah 30 (NIV)"The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth." (Psalm 145:18, NIV)
IN OUR home, we enjoy the benefits of multiple telephones and Internet access. Away from home, we have the security of a cell telephone at our fingertips. We pay monthly bills for each service: a basic monthly fee, plus toll charges for long-distance calls or extra minutes on the cell phone.
Instant communication allows us to speak with family and friends. It encourages and comforts us to know they are only a "phone call away." Instant Messenger provides immediate conversation, if their computer is turned on.
God provides us with instant communication. He told Jeremiah, "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know" (Jeremiah 33:3). We can call upon Him at any hour, speak to Him as many minutes or hours as we desire, and never pay a service or toll charge. His line is never busy, He employs no auto-dial system requiring "Press 1," etc., and He serves as our ultimate example in providing excellent customer service. Our calls to Him are voice-activated when we speak His name, and He answers all of His calls personally.
God is only one toll-free prayer away!
Our Father, thank You for providing a way for us to instantly talk with You. It is comforting to know You are always there when we call. In Christ's glorious name. Amen.
