Do you whistle while you work?
Do you whistle when you’re happy?
Do you whistle to summons (perhaps a person or a pet)?
Do you whistle to get someone’s attention?
Did you know that God whistles? What?????
Before we go there, perhaps defining the word might be
helpful:
Whistle - a shrill clear sound produced by forcing breath out or air in through
the puckered lips; the sound produced by a whistle; a signal given by or as if
by whistling; to send, bring, signal, or call by or as if by whistling.
God whistles?
Yep, check it out: “I will whistle for them to gather them together, for I have
redeemed them; and they will be as numerous as they were before.” Zechariah
7:10 (NASB)
Another translation puts it this
way: “I will signal for them and gather them,
for I have already redeemed them; then they will become as numerous as they
were before.” (NET)
I don’t think we are given any
indication as to the type of sound that God’s whistle makes. Nor are we given any indication as to whether
God really puckers His lips to make it.
But it does seem to be a sound that sends a signal that He is calling or
summonsing us to Himself.
Listen for His whistle and come quickly!
