Hearing God’s Voice 2

Hearing God’s Voice Relationship is the key! We need to be childlike I Samuel 3:10 The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “Speak, for your servant is listening.” He was a novice He was willing to learn He was obedient

Hearing God’s Voice A Humble Approach

Hearing God’s Voice Matthew 18:1-5 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, ‘Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?’ He called a little child and had him stand among them. And He said, ‘I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of God. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of God.’

Hearing God’s Voice A truly humble person does not concern themselves with position or power, but is concerned about active service, especially towards those most in need.

Hearing God’s Voice Watch out for pride Luke 18:14 ‘Everyone who exalts himself will be humbled and everyone who humbles himself will be exalted.’ 1 Peter 5:5 & James 4:6 ‘God opposes the proud.’ Proverbs 6:17 ‘A proud look.’

Hearing God’s Voice The Result They were looking for an external change but Jesus bought an internal one. He came to be crucified not crowned.

Hearing God’s Voice The Cure Mark 1:15 ‘The kingdom of God is here. Repent and believe the good news!’ Childlike humility is the key to positioning ourselves to hear from God

Hearing God’s Voice Father I confess that pride often separates me from you. Thank you for reminding me how important childlike humility is to You and how much You hate pride. Thank you Lord for humbling Yourself and dying on the cross so that I could live forever with You in Your kingdom. As I humble myself before You in my actions and attitudes, I look forward to hearing from You clearly.
