Isaiah 50:4-5 (NLT). “The Sovereign Lord has given me his words of wisdom, so that I know how to comfort the weary. Morning by morning he wakens me and opens my understanding to his will. The Sovereign Lord has spoken to me, and I have listened. I have not rebelled or turned away.”

John 10:27 (MSG). “My sheep recognize my voice. I know them, and they follow me.”

“How to Listen to God” By In Touch Ministries:

“Spend time regularly in God's Word, and you'll learn to hear His voice.”

“Most of us are better at talking than listening, but communicating with God involves both. The Lord intends for His children to hear His voice.

Scripture is one of the main instruments our Father uses to speak to us. For this reason, studying the Bible is incredibly important. When we regularly spend time in God���s Word, we’ll develop a discerning spirit.

Regardless of how loudly God speaks, we won’t hear unless listening is a priority. We must ask the Lord to teach us to hear and then practice having a quiet attitude. An internal “receiver” tuned to the Father develops only through committed prayer, meditation, and practice at listening. In addition, we need a spirit of submission to obey His commands.

God’s goal for us is a lifestyle of sensitivity so we can hear Him in both noisy and calm situations. Listening is a critical skill for ensuring that our hearts are open to divine guidance in every circumstance. Regularly spending time reading and meditating on Scripture has many blessings, including that we more readily recognize our Father’s voice (John 10:27).”

He Has Shown Thee, Oh Soul

God Has Shown Thee, My Soul God has shown thee, oh told thee, my soul What is good, what He wants, has not He? But to do what is just, show mercy, be kind, And with God on thy path walk humbly. God has spoken to thee through His Word, Does He not ever speak through His Law, His commands ever speak and teach us His ways, And tell us walk humbly with God. God has shown thee, Oh shows thee,…

EVERY SINGLE DAY there are MILLIONS of characters in their late 20s who get falsely accused of being father figures to teenagers when in reality the description of "weird older cousin" or "step-sibling that moved out before you were born" is 1000000x more apt

How to use Meditation for real peace. It's important.

  The Bad Rap Meditation has gotten a bad rap among Christians, although I see a changing trend. I can remember being critical of Yoga because of its “Eastern” transcendental philosophy. Sometimes, I practice Yoga myself occasionally when I can’t work out due to my feet. I may offend some Christians, but if we don’t look at the issues that tickle our sensitivities, we’ll never understand…

“Radio was just coming of age when I was a boy. We would gather around a crude homemade set and twist the tuning dials. Often the only sound was the squeak and squawk of static. It wasn’t very exciting, but we kept at it. We knew that….if we established contact, we could hear a voice loud and clear. Does God speak to us? Is He trying to reach us? Yes! The problem is not with Him, but with us. Like that crude radio, we aren’t attuned to Him…. God is trying to break through to us—but we must “tune in” to His Word. Are you listening?”

—Billy Graham

A Garden And A Path

In January of this year (2023) the Lord was leading me to work on an album of original prayersongs tentatively titled Paths of Praise Christian Worship Songs. Suddenly He interrupted that work which I was completely focused on and switched directions. He asked me to create an album of traditional hymns as a gift for His children. When the Lord changes my focus on a project it completely humbles…

Do You Hear the Trumpet?

1 Corinthians 14:8 Again, if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle? Do You Hear the Trumpet?      The battle is mine says that Lord, but who will go out with Me?  Who will arise from complacency and leave off from their agenda to make the Lord their continual agenda?  Who sees into the future, but makes no effort to prepare for it?  The Lord is sounding the…

Learning to Hear God's Voice

Whenever someone tells me they want to draw closer to God, one of my first questions is about whether they know how to discern God’s voice. Learning the language of the Spirit is like learning another language – it takes time and practice! You can pray all day and fast and read Scripture, but there has to be two way communication in order to build a RELATIONSHIP with God. It cannot be one…

Hearing God.

We must learn to listen and hear the voice of God. The Holy Spirit speaks to us to guide us in the will of God. Also when we pray, we must listen for the voice of God. He will answer when we pray - sometimes immediately, sometimes later, and sometimes by doing something. The Holy Spirit guides us by putting attitudes in our hearts and thoughts in our minds - and sometimes words. Just make sure it's not from demons, because they can also influence our minds. Discern it by comparing it with the Word of God and what you know is good and proper.

John 10:27 [WEB] My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
