God Still Talks

I hope and pray that we all heard the voice of God in our services today. It is important to understand that the Lord has something to say in every service. He still speaks into our hearts and through us to the world. Make way for Him and linger in His presence.

Just like the Psalmist, we long for the Lord to hear our voice (Ps. 5:2; 130:2), but we need to understand that He longs even more for us to hear His voice (Rev. 3:20; John 10:27.)

God wants to talk to His people. When you read the Word, you can see that He is a very “talkative” God. He:

   Creates with His voice (Gen. 1:3–26; Ps. 29:4–9; 33:6)
   Spoke face to face with Moses (Ex. 33:11)
   Speaks in fire (Deut. 4:12)
   Thunders with His voice (Job 37:2, 4–5)
   Shouts and cries out loudly (Ps. 47:5; Is. 42:13)
   Has a voice like many waters (Ez. 1:24; 43:2)
   Has a voice that sounds like the wings of the cherubim (Ez. 10:5)
   Roars with His voice through His people (Joel 3:16; Amos 1:2)
   Sings and rejoices over us (Zeph. 3:17)
   Spoke audibly to Jesus and all who were with Him (Matt. 3:17; 17:5)
   Spoke audibly to Saul of Tarsus (Acts 9:5, 7; 22:8)
   Spoke audibly to Peter (Acts 10:15)
   Spoke audibly to John (Rev. 1:10)
   Shakes the earth with His voice (Heb. 12:26)

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them,
and they follow Me.
John 10:27
