Hear My Voice
John 10:27 (NKJV) “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”
Have you ever wished God would talk to you in a way you could hear with your ears? I mean the same way He spoke to Moses and all the other righteous believers in the Old Testament. In fact, He spoke to men and women that way up until before Jesus died on the cross. Why? What if I told you that was the only way He could speak to believers then?
Consider this. Because of Adam’s sin, God was separated from man spiritually. He couldn’t fellowship with man internally the way He wanted, before Adam and Eve sinned. When they rebelled against God, they died spiritually, which caused a wedge of separation. The only way God could communicate with man was audibly, or through the voice of an angel or a prophet. But a prophet still had to hear God’s voice telling him what to do audibly.
Jesus’ death and the payment for our sin enabled God to tear the temple veil, and the Holy of Holies now dwells within us. So now God speaks to your spirit. You must learn to listen with your spiritual ears to recognize His voice.
With today’s technology, we are so distracted by electronic devices that we don’t have time to recognize God’s voice. The enemy steals your time and gets you to focus on other things instead of patiently waiting to hear God’s voice. When was the last time you purposely got quiet to listen to God’s voice?
Psalm 46:10 (NKJV) “Be still and know that I am God.”
God loves it when you make the time to wait on Him. When you make the time to wait on Him, He speaks to your spirit. And when He speaks to your spirit, learn to obey immediately. Here is something that will inspire you. When God asks you to do something, it is not for His benefit. It is always for your benefit. When He asks you to do something, it is always for your good.
Being obedient to God’s voice shows that you love Him, and you are following Him.
Be Blessed!
