- 0:33- with the episode entitled learning to recognize the
- 0:37- voice of God in everyday life.
- 0:40- Scripture text comes from Isaiah thirty twenty one
- 0:44- and reads as follows.
- 0:47- Whether you turn to the right
- 0:49- or to the left,
- 0:51- your ears will hear a voice behind you
- 0:54- saying,
- 0:55- this is the way.
- 0:57- Walk in it.
- 1:00- Many people expect hearing God to feel dramatic,
- 1:04- but often
- 1:06- his guidance comes quietly
- 1:08- and consistently.
- 1:10- God speaks in ways that lead,
- 1:14- correct,
- 1:16- comfort, and
- 1:17- redirect us
- 1:18- throughout
- 1:19- ordinary moments of life.
- 1:23- The key
- 1:24- is to be
- 1:26- glued in.
- 1:29- Not an easy feat, but definitely doable.
- 1:33- Sometimes,
- 1:34- his voice sounds like peace in the middle
- 1:37- of a confusion
- 1:40- or a crisis.
- 1:43- Sometimes
- 1:44- it's conviction
- 1:45- before making
- 1:46- a poor decision.
- 1:50- Sometimes
- 1:51- it's a scripture that keeps repeating
- 1:54- over and over again
- 1:56- in your
- 1:58- spirit. And then again, sometimes
- 2:02- it's
- 2:04- heavenly wisdom that gently
- 2:06- redirects
- 2:07- your next step.
- 2:10- Now recognizing
- 2:12- God's voice requires
- 2:14- spiritual
- 2:15- sensitivity,
- 2:17- and sensitivity
- 2:19- grows
- 2:19- through
- 2:20- daily connection.
- 2:23- The more we return to prayer,
- 2:26- the easier it is to become
- 2:29- discerning
- 2:30- about what it is
- 2:32- and is not coming from God and
- 2:35- what is simply
- 2:37- noise.
- 2:40- Remember,
- 2:40- God's always going
- 2:43- to speak and
- 2:45- bring forth
- 2:46- positive change.
- 2:49- God desires to guide his children,
- 2:51- not confuse them.
- 2:55- That being said,
- 2:56- let's pray.
- 2:59- Heavenly father,
- 3:02- help us to recognize your voice
- 3:04- throughout our day.
- 3:07- Give us spiritual
- 3:09- sensitivity
- 3:10- and wisdom to follow your direction.
- 3:14- Quiet
- 3:15- every distraction that competes for our attention.
- 3:19- Let your guidance become clear
- 3:22- and steady in our lives,
- 3:25- and we will bless you in Jesus' name.
- 3:28- Amen.
