‘And God spoke…’
If you’re well-acquainted with your Bible, you’ll know that God interacted and communicated in a myriad of ways in the ancient times. We’re familiar with the actions of biblical figures when they heard from God and how their narratives unfolded.
The questions we grapple with today are – can we solely rely on God’s actions of the past? Does reading the Bible and learning about the Word equate to hearing God’s voice? Why is it so vital to hear God’s voice and can we still do so in these modern times?
Firstly, we can glean much about God’s personality, character, and disposition from the Bible, fellow believers, or the church. However, all of this pales in comparison to hearing Him for yourself, applicable to your own circumstance.
Hearing God’s Voice in a natural and personal manner is what solidifies your personal relationship with Him. It renders Him real, and makes you recognise that your prayers and conversations with God are not a one-way communication. He is more present than you can ever imagine, and He loves you so profoundly that He takes the time to converse with you on a personal level.
Listening to God
God continues to communicate.
Perhaps in the past, you’ve yearned for God to converse with you as He did with individuals in the Bible. After all, He delivered messages through dreams, angels, and on one occasion even wrote on a wall (Daniel 5). Life would be so much simpler if God could just instruct you on what to do.
The uplifting news is that God remains unchanged today as He was thousands of years ago in biblical times. He still communicates in the present day. The issue is with us. We struggle to recognise His voice any longer.
