Stop and Listen

“Amen and Amen.” To deny that God emphasizes certain numbers in His Book is to close one’s eyes to Divine light. For example, seven is completion or perfection; forty, probation or trial. There is a symbolism attached to these, as with other numbers in the Scriptures. And so it is with the number two. It stands for union. “They shall be one flesh,” is how God describes the union of two people in marriage.

This can be true also of the head and the heart. They are to be one in agreement. When there is conflict between the two, it is time to stop any endeavor until each can say “Amen” to the other. To be established, the Bible says it must be “in the mouth of two witnesses.” For instance, the Word of God and the Spirit of God always agree as one. It takes two wings to fly, and you’ll never get off the ground in any endeavor unless there are two internal voices that say, “Amen and Amen."
