All glory to the Lord Jesus Christ, who gives to those who seek, and blesses the pure in heart with an abundance of grace. Who died for our sins, and rose to justify us. To him belongs all the Glory Power and Praise!
I want to tell you how to hear the voice of the Lord. I am not afraid to speak on this.
There are things that prevent a person from hearing the voice of the Lord, and Jesus Christ tells about these things. And many of them are hidden in parables, but I don't wish to give you parables, I want to speak plainly with you, and I hope, even now, you can hear his voice to discern the Truth.
One main thing that prevents a person from hearing the voice of the Lord is pride!! I think this might be one of the greatest things.
And so, the opposite of this would be humility. So, in order to hear the voice of the Lord you have to first abase yourself. This is what I mean when I say, you have to become dumb, so that perhaps you might learn something worth learning.
If you don't do this, you will NEVER hear the voice of the Lord. You will only be able to hear your own voice, or the voice of another person, maybe the voice of a pastor even, but you will not hear the voice of the Lord without humility.
So, after you are in the place of humility, then you are ready to hear the voice of the Lord. So now, when he speaks, you don't reply, you want to hear what he says, and see if it is true or not. You don't humble yourself only in front of God, but you humble yourself with EVERYONE! BECAUSE THE LORD CAN EVEN SPEAK THROUGH SINNERS!!!!!
Honestly, humility is the main thing to hearing the voice of the Lord. I hardly know what else. OH!!
Another thing is Sin. Once your heart is humble you will most certainly hear the voice of the Lord. But if you hear his voice and do not obey his voice, then you will be cut off from hearing him. He will not speak to you any more. And this is sin, that if you have heard what is right to do, and you don't do it, then you are held accountable.
So, this is how there are so many false doctrines and religions spreading. Because people who might have heard his voice, or were too proud to hear in the first place, went off on their own missions to establish their own voice. So, they disregard the Lord and promote a false love, and a false gospel, and false peace. And the end of these people is hell. Truly. If they do not soften their hearts and stop provoking the Lord he will surely cut them off.
Moses was the most humble man in his day. And the Lord spoke to him in volumes. But the people of Israel, rebellious and stiff-necked people, who desired to hear his voice, when he spoke they fell to the ground and said, OH!! HIS VOICE IS TOO MUCH!! LET GOD SPEAK TO YOU AND YOU SPEAK TO US!! Ha!! They wanted signs did they not? Anyhow this is why the Lord had to send prophets, or even why he had to establish kings, because the people would not hear his voice, neither would they serve under his leadership. So he set up people after his own heart to guide the people, who should be able to hear him, but will not because it is too much for them.
So, I want to leave this parable:
3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Matthew 13
