God Speaks

God has spoken to his people in many times and in many ways. Sometimes it is with information, sometimes it is with direction, sometimes it is with power. When God’s Word goes out with the power to establish a new order, it is established and made final by being spoken twice.

Gen 41:32 And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

So when God speaks something twice we should pay attention. When He speaks something more than twice, we should really pay attention. God tells Abraham twice that He will bless all the nations of the earth in his seed (Gen 12:3 and Gen 22:18). He repeated the same to Isaac (Gen 26:4) and to Jacob (Gen 28:14). And Solomon repeated the promise (Ps 72:17), as did Peter (Ac 3:25) and Paul (Gal 3:8). And the seed is Christ:

Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

Twice spoken, three times dreampt. Sometimes 2 or more people unrelated to each other can pass along the same message. Sometimes it is a 2x4. However it is said, we should be listening and acting on those things He has said.
This is a great sight and I hope that a lot of people will see much Light when they come here.
