Can You Hear Him, Now

Good Morning!! When you hear someone say, "God told me …" do you wonder if God spoke to them audibly,...and why that never happens to you? While there are instances recorded in the Bible of God speaking audibly,...and maybe it still happens,...but this is not a common occurrence. But there are other tangible ways God speaks to us, like through the Bible,...and in a still small voice in our hearts.

The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.—John 10:3 (NIV)
The Bible is the logos of God,...the authoritative, infallible, inerrant, eternal Word of God. And it is forever settled in heaven. Second Timothy 3:16 says, "All Scripture is God-breathed." As we read the Bible, every word is God speaking to us. We need to spend regular time in God's Word,...listening and growing. ",…people need more than food to live, they need every word that the LORD has spoken" (Deuteronomy 8:3 CEV).

As we learn to listen and respond, we will become more and more familiar with his voice.

Father God, help us to commit to spending more time in Your Word,...listening as You speak to us through the scriptures. Help us to become more familiar with Your voice. In Jesus' name, Amen.

" When we affirm actions and attitudes, we reap more of them.
Wise people know to reward the behavior they want to see more of."
