I was walking outside the other day and heard all kinds of different birds. I could recognize only 1 or 2 of them, because I never studied bird songs or sounds. Each one has a distinctive song they sing, and other birds know their own kind singing.
In the same way, we must study and learn the voice of God. Reading and STUDYING the Bible is the only true way to know His voice. It is good to listen to preachers and teachers of the Bible, but we are responsible to learn on our own too, alone with God. He will speak through His word and comfort you or guide you. Whatever you need He can provide.
In today’s world, with so many voices trying to tell us something, we need to be able to distinguish the voice of our Lord and Savior. Even when something sounds true or right, it could be mixed with lies to deceive you into believing it is all true, which can then lead you astray onto a path of deception. We need to fully know what God has said in the Bible.
Don’t be afraid of reading the Bible or think it’s too confusing. Take a little bit at a time, consistently every day, and you will discover that Gods word is good.
O taste and see that the Lord is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!
Psalms 34:8.Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed, and who correctly handles the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15.
