People need the Lord! And, we must have direction from the Lord! We are standing at the door of the most life-changing event in human history, that is the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. As the Body of Christ, we must look to God for the revelation and wisdom to complete our mission here. It is imperative that we hear from God to know how to finish well!
As I was looking back over some correspondence, I ran across an email from our late State Overseer, Bishop L.V. Jones, in which he addressed this subject. It is just as relevant today as when he wrote it. I feel it prudent to share it here.

HEARING FROM GOD!
In a little while, we will assemble as the Body of Christ at our meeting places. A favorite book in the Bible for me is Habakkuk, God's Prophet to Judah. He had seen Judah when she was spiritually strong and now in decline. The world affairs were in a mess; and so were the affairs of God's people. The Prophet searched to know God's mind and asked; "why are you silent knowing what is happening!"
So much like Today, the worldview was well established. The Prophet understood the need for God's View to be clearly understood.
The Holy Ghost takes God's Word, makes it relevant and applicable to our Day. We need to hear direct from God's Throne Today. Our Pastors are God's messenger of the hour.
Habakkuk heard from God and his Faith was strengthened and in God's Word found assurance and rest.
When we leave the House of God later Today, I pray you will have found rest in God because His Word is clear and we believe and trust it to be Truth.
Faith; Strength; Rest!
