When People Pray: Ears to Hear and a Heart to RespondPrøve

When You Hear God Speak, Obey Him According to Ephesians 5:1, as children of our God we ought to imitate Him.  The highest form of worship is imitation. We ought, as children of God, desire to be like God as we were created to be. A son or daughter can never be the mirror image of their parent, in fact they weren’t made to be exactly the same. They are individually unique and their giftedness is needed as such. But they can become “LIKE” them. In the same way, we were not created to be God, but to become LIKE Him. Listen to the powerful truth from Brian Alarid, “If you are unable to hear God’s voice right now, ask yourself if you have obeyed the last word God gave you. Obey the last message God gave you, and He will start speaking to you again.” God speaks in a way that you can hear Him. Be encouraged, there is no ‘right way or wrong way’ to hear His voice. Trying to limit a limitless God is futile. God can speak to whomever, however He desires at any one moment. Our job as children of God and followers of Jesus, filled by the Holy Spirit, is not to explain God into a box. Ours is to know Him, to talk with Him, to listen to Him, and to obey Him.
