Who are you listening to?
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: – John 10:27 (KJV)
and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. – John 10:3-5 (KJV)
In order to follow God in our lives we must know His voice. The more time that you spend with someone the more quickly you are able to identify their voice. Our dilemma is that we desire to hear His voice when we haven’t spent time with Him.
How do we spend time with Our Shepherd? By reading, studying and meditating His Word. Our Heavenly Father has revealed Himself through His Word and it is up to us to get in it and “dig it out”. God is wanting us to move with Him but most are standing still looking around like they are lost. (because they can’t hear His voice)
Where are you today? Do you hear His voice? Are you following hard after Him? Dive into the Word and I’ll guarantee that you will begin to hear Him speak!
