Main text: 2 Peter 1:21 – For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
John 10:27 – My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me
A lot of people believe that God does not talk to them while others cannot differentiate when God is speaking with them. Well, the challenge is not from God but from us. God is not dumb but sin deafens our spiritual ears. It is not normal to live without hearing the voice of God or even receiving instructions from Him.
We must understand that God treats us uniquely different and does not have to speak to us the manner that we desire. The manner H spoke to Abraham is different from the way He spoke to Moses. We cannot decide when or how He speaks but should be ready and make ourselves available to hear. There is another sensitive nature of God. Sometimes, He uses strange things or events to call our attention to Him especially, if we are busy and away from the environment that is best for communication.
He used a burning tree to attract Moses. It is like listening to a radio broadcast in a noisy environment, you either turn off the radio or move to a quiet zone. To hear from God, we must keep off noise and distraction.
CONSCIOUSLY DESIRE HIS VOICE AND ALWAYS CREATE HIS PLACE IN YOUR LIFE DAILY.
Prayer Point: Lord Jesus, give me the gift to know when you are speaking to me and help me to understand as well.
