Speaking with God

Scripture Numbers 7:89 When Moses entered the Tent of Meeting to speak with the LORD, he heard the voice speaking to him from between the two cherubim above the atonement cover on the ark of the Testimony. And he spoke with him.

Observation: Are we listening for God’s voice? We need to listen intently and search from where God is speaking. God can speak to us from a friend, relative or stranger. He can speak to us from a sermon, a small group meeting and through a book. God always speaks to us through His word, but we need to do more than read we need to listen to what He is telling us. God tells us that He loves us and has a plan for our life and that He wants to guide us. So we need to be still and listen to His instructions.

Application: I need to train myself to listen. I allow the distractions of this world to become overwhelming to the point I can’t hear anything. God needs to be my top priority and I need to take time to be with Him so I can hear what He wants me to do. I need to spend more quiet time alone with my Lord so that He can show me His desires.

Prayer: My Lord I need your help to hear you. My mind is constantly going and I can’t seem to control my thoughts. Help me Lord hear your voice and be obedient on what you call me to do. I love you and my desire is to please you.
