Hearing God's VoiceSample

Have you ever listened to a sermon or sat in youth group and felt like the speaker was talking straight to you? God can use pastors and teachers to speak to you. God can use anyone to speak to you.

This means, the people you allow into your life matter. 

Moses was one of the great leaders in the Bible. But he didn’t lead alone. Moses had several trusted friends and mentors that he invited to speak into his life. He had people he turned to for guidance and wisdom. 

One of these guys was his father-in-law, Jethro. Jethro was able to give encouragement to Moses and point out the good things he saw in him. He had permission to call Moses out and challenge him.

Now, when it comes to wisdom from others, don’t always take it at face-value. Run it through the filters of Scripture and maybe get the advice of another person or two. 

Do you have godly people in your life speaking into you? If not, write down the name of one person who could do that for you. Invite them to speak into your life.
