HEARING THE VOICE OF GOD

John 10:2(But he that entereth in by the door is shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers).

In the world there are so many voices; everyone is speaking and it is hard to detect the voice of God. We are led and directed by a voice. People respond to voice and it is only the spirit of God that can help us not be attracted or get hooked to a wrong voice. Isaiah 30:21(And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left). We are meant to hear the voice of God behind every word; but Nene, how is it possible, you may ask? It is very possible because that’s how we are led. If an evil representative is speaking to you, your first reaction will be what will God say concerning this matter and immediately the spirit of God will begin to interpret to you what that individual is saying. We are not ordained to hear like them nor see like the world sees. Jesus Christ was able to differentiate the voice of God from the voice of the devil; and that’s how he defeated him and we are taught to do the same. Knowing what the word of God says concerning any issue will give you victory over the enemy any time and any day. It came to a point in my walk with God that if i am having conversation with people; the Spirit of God will begin to point out to me where those things are in the scripture whether the person is a believer or not; that’s when I came to agree with the truth that everything about our life is in the scripture. The Holy Spirit is our divine interpreter; when he resides in you he will interpret every word to you and put them into perspective. The word we speak is a spirit and it can easily possess humans. So if you are not possessed by the word of truth then you will be possessed by lies because you can’t be empty.  Jesus Christ said that the word he speaks is spirit and life. John 6:63(It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life). If you are listening to the word of truth it will become part of your being and become your life because you will live by it; but if you are listening to lies it will be part of you and you will begin to manifest what you heard and believed. There is a Television program that my brother loves watching. I will not lie to you; the preacher is gifted but he can’t say a word without condemning another man of God, I advised him to minimize the time he spent listening to the man so that he will not start behaving like him. I was never comfortable listening to him because I don’t want to become a judge that judges other people’s actions. Everyone has the right to choose who they want to listen to; your teacher has a great effect on you because we are controlled by the word. That’s why God said that He will give us a teacher who will train us in His way. Jeremiah 3:15(And I will give you pastor according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding). That’s the mandate that God has given to your Pastor; to train your ear on how to recognize the voice of God.  The word of God is meant to transform us to His original image from glory to glory (2 Corinthian 3:18). The voice of the world will also transform people who are being controlled by them to their image, but that will not be you in Jesus name. The voice of God is behind His word and the bible is the word of God and as you continue to study the scripture you will get used to and recognize His voice. He is our shepherd and we are His sheep and we are designed and trained to recognize His voice; and His will is to direct us to the right path. Your ears are meant to be blocked against the voice of the strangers. I pray for you today; you will not make a wrong decision again in Jesus; your journey will not be diverted by the wrong voice in Jesus name. Every child recognizes the voice of their father; if you are not a child of God; there is no way you can recognize His voice. The voice of the devil will not be strange to you and his voice leads to destruction (John 10:10). Friends, here is another opportunity to make God your shepherd by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior; and you will never lack any good thing again in Jesus name. O Lord, open my ears to hear your voice and give me the grace to follow your lead in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
