Not Listening For God “Hear O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD” - Deuteronomy 6:4 “Those who have ears, let them hear” - Matthew 11:15; Mark 4:9, 23 - Revelation 2:7; 2:11; 2:17; 2:29; 3:6; 3:13; 3:22 Not Speaking With God “Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” – Jeremiah 33:3 WAYS OF LISTENING TO THE LORD 1. God’s Word “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.” - 2 Timothy 3:1 2. Voice Of The Holy Spirit “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.” - John 16:13 “For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.” - Romans 8:14 3. Spiritual Gifts But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit … to another prophecy. – 1 Corinthians 12:7-1 4. Godly Friends “Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.” - Proverbs 11:14 “…Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.” – 2 Corinthians 13:1 5. The Peace Of God “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.” - Colossians 3:15
