![]() The very words you’ll read are the very words of God and you can confidently know that you are hearing from God as you read it. The Bible is living and active and if you want to hear from God and know what He is saying for sure, open up the book and read it. That means we are lacking without it and won’t be equipped if we don’t listen to God as He speaks to us from the Bible. And the fact that we, as followers of Jesus, need His Word to make us complete. Let’s not miss the point that God tells us Himself how He speaks to us…through His Word. God Himself tells us that His Word is breathed out by Him, and is profitable for everything, so that His Children may be made complete and equipped for every good work. There’s a strong emphasis at the beginning of these verses with the word “ All.” Every little bit of Scripture is breathed out by God…as in…God talking to us. “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” – 2 Timothy 3:16-17 It’s our choice whether or not we will believe Him with how He says He speaks. Not only that, He has made it very clear on how we can hear from Him. The simple fact that He sent His one and only Son to die for us proves the point that He is not a cruel God…and in fact, a loving God. He is not a God who would want to confuse people by having them constantly question if they can hear Him or not. it’s hard to know if there is a way to really know if we are hearing from God. With so many stories and experiences out there through books, videos, posts, etc. There’s a lot of confusion when it comes to hearing from God and I think that is part of the problem. Something must have been wrong with me, right? I struggled with this thought for awhile before following Jesus and after I started to follow Him because I heard many different claims of people “ hearing” from God and I had no idea what that meant because I thought I never heard from Him. If there’s a chance we can hear from God Himself on a question we have or something we are going through, don’t you think we would want to hear from Him? Or at least, know how to? ![]() I think many people are searching for this answer whether they follow Jesus or not. ![]()
