HEARING GOD’S VOICE 9 –

How Do I Hear God’s Voice? 4



“I will hear what God the LORD will speak, For He will speak peace To His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly” Psalm 85:8 (NKJV)



If you have been following this series from previous episodes you will clearly understand that the Bible is God’s primary means of speaking to you. The Bible is not just a collection of ancient texts but contains God’s relevant word for you in the present.

The author of Hebrews established three active phases of God’s speaking:

1. God at different times and in divers manners in the past or old eras SPOKE to the fathers through the Prophets. (Hebrews 1:1)

These fathers are the biological ancestors of the Jews. Today’s believers may refer to some of these fathers as “spiritual ancestors” because of what we share in the household of faith.

2. And God has SPOKEN to us in these last days through the Son (Jesus, who is the person of the Word and the full expression of God).

3. God is still SPEAKING through the revelation of His Word.

In the past or old era, God spoke to the fathers but now in these last days, God has spoken to us. Yes the “us” includes you. God has spoken to you. He has given you His revelation through Christ Jesus.

The author of Hebrews wants you to know that God’s message in these last days, is not only to the believers in the first century but to you and all who are in these present times.

This message of God through Christ, is God’s everlasting message. It is the final Word of God for all generations in all ages.

God in these last days is not primarily speaking in divers manners and in many ways. God has spoken and continues to speak definitely through and in His Son who is the WORD!

Now this is not to totally alienate all that God has spoken through the Prophets. What God said through the Prophets was written and preserved as the scriptures. These scriptures were written to bear testimony of Jesus, who is the Person of the Word of God  (John 5:39).

Jesus came as the Word of God made flesh (John 1:14). He is the embodiment of the words God has been speaking from the beginning of time (John 1:1).

Now this was the testimony of God concerning His Word to us:

And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!” (Luke 9:35)

The Son is the Word of God to you, HEAR HIM!

He is the present voice of God to you, HEAR HIM!

All that God spoke through the Prophets including God’s dealing with them and their testimonies of Christ were recorded and preserved as scriptures. The appearing of Christ who is the Word in the flesh, and His living and manifold expressions were also recorded. 

 

His work through His death, burial and resurrection to make available His saving Grace for all men were written in the gospels for our understanding. The establishment of His Church, which is His corporate Body, the stewardship of the affairs within the Church, and the revelation of His life, the counsel of His will and His eternal inheritance or bequest bequeathed to all His saints, and the prophetic revelation of all that is and shall be when time will consummate were articulated through various epistles or letters.

These were recognized by divine leadings as holy writs and were canonized to be preserved as sacred scriptures. This is what we have as the Bible.

Having this understanding will establish you in the certainty that the Bible is the active voice of the living God to you today. And the person of this voice is Jesus.

This is why all gleanings of the scriptures must bring you into the light of Christ Jesus and His inheritance.

Jesus who is the complete revelation of God to you today is not dead. He is alive. (John 11:25; Matthew 28:6)

This is why you must know that the Bible is God’s active voice.

For the word of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 (Amplified Bible)

When you are reading the Bible don’t see yourself reading a another collection of literature or books. The Bible is the aggregation of God’s thoughts or wisdom, which consummates as Christ.

When you are reading the Bible, you must know God has a present Word for your present situation. 

Yours is to pay attention to what God will say to you through those written words in the light of Christ.

Selah!

WE PRAY

Glory to God. Today’s Machiara is a Most read. I’m so excited about this that God speaks to to through his word. I’ve come to acknowledge and respect God’s word the more. The eyes of my understanding have been opened to this reality that God speaks to me through his word.

This scripture really stood out for me from the Dig deeper
Job 23 :12
I have not departed from the commands of his lips. I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.

God bless you Apostle Bennie for availing yourself for God to use you, I’m so greatful to God. God bless you beyond measure. Thank you Apostle.

Two Things You Must Know When You Are Reading the Bible.

1. When you are reading the Bible don’t see yourself reading a another collection of literature or books. You must see it as the aggregation of God’s Wisdom and thoughts.

2. When you are reading the Bible, you must know God has a present Word for your present situation.
