Are you hearing the voice of the Living God?

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.” John 10:27

The Spirit of God has been speaking to me about believers who don’t believe they can personally hear the voice of God or they disavow the importance of hearing His voice. And, some don’t want to hear God for fear of what will happen to them.

Many seek the voice of God through religious leaders, reading scriptures, or hearing personal testimonies. They neglect seeking out the person of Jesus Christ. Jesus said the purpose of the Bible is to testify to the Living Christ who has the power to give you the gift of eternal life. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.

The Bible is the Word of God and is alive and powerful. I cherish the Word and live in the fullness of the scriptures every day of my life. However, the Word requires the Holy Spirit to bring truth and reality to your life.

It is easier and more comfortable to go to church, perform religious rituals, and do works for God. You can keep the Living God at an arms distance from you and not have Him turn your life upside down.

You and I are imperfect and fall way short of the glory of God. The only way to find correction and to live for God is through His Spirit. Any other actions are just going through the motions!

You have to live each day in the consciousness of God. He cannot be just a figure in the Bible or a church sermon.

The question to ask yourself is “What is your most important need today and how can God enrich you with His life?” You will only find this answer through the Spirit of God!

Thought for the day:

“You must worship Me in Spirit and Truth. I know you better than you know yourself. Your perception of your needs does not align with My reality. I am a Living God and desire to be in communion with you and show you My ways.”
