HE SPEAKS, SO LISTEN UP!
(He Talks To Your Spirit)
John 10:27 “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”
“I’m born again, and I speak in tongues; I pray, but I’ve never heard the Holy Spirit speak to me. Is there something wrong with me?” Some people have found themselves asking this question again and again.
If, as a Christian, you find it difficult to discern the voice of the Spirit, it’s not because His voice is weak when He speaks. First, the Holy Spirit probably has been speaking to you, and you’ve either not been listening to Him or you’re thinking it’s your mind that’s talking to you. The Holy Spirit always talks to us, but we listen to Him, not with our physical ears but with our spirits, from within us.
If you’re listening with your spirit, you’ll hear Him. And again, when you study the Scriptures, He talks to you. Therefore, whenever you’re studying the Word, it’s an opportunity for the Holy Spirit to minister to you, to talk to you. So, accept His teachings and His guidance from the Bible. 2 Timothy 3:16 says, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”
When a Christian says, “I talk to the Lord, but He doesn’t talk back to me,” what that person needs to realise is that when you talk to Him, He doesn’t necessarily have to talk to you while you’re on your knees waiting; no! He may not act at that moment, but He’ll always talk to you. He talks to you every day.
So, as a child of God, never say, “I don’t know whether the Holy Spirit talks to me.” Say what Jesus said: “I know the Father, and He knows me. I hear and recognise His voice.” Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (John 10:27). Therefore, you say, “I know the voice of the Master; I know the voice of the Holy Spirit, and He talks to me.” When you say that, your spirit becomes conscious of the voice of the Holy Spirit within, and of His guidance and words in your life. HE SPEAKS, SO LISTEN UP!

PRAY:
Dear Father, I thank you for the ability to hear you speak through your Word and your Spirit and recognise your voice. My spirit is sensitive to your voice; the ways of the Spirit have been unveiled to me, and I’m guided from within and through the Word to know and walk in the paths of life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
