One of the things that I don’t like about social media and smartphones is the overuse of notifications. Depending upon how you set up your phone and apps, you can receive notifications almost constantly. These notifications can be annoying as many are just spam notices trying to sell something.
II Chronicles 36:15 says, “The LORD, the God of their fathers, sent persistently to them by his messengers because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling place.” God will repeatedly send His Word to you because He has compassion toward you in your weaknesses and wants you to come near to Him for hope and healing. His notifications are worth listening to, however, because they will lead us in the ways that we should go. Many of God’s notifications come as compassionate warnings to protect us from false and misleading paths.
