LISTENING FOR GOD
A rule here, a rule there. A little lesson here, a little lesson there.
Isaiah 28:10
Equipped with the right tools, we can learn to listen to God. What are those tools? Here are the ones I have found helpful.
A regular time and Place. Select a slot on your schedule and a corner of your world and claim it for God. For some it may be the best to do this in the morning. Others prefer the evening.
A second tool you need is an open Bible. God speaks to us through his Word. The first step in reading the Bible is to ask God to help you understand it. Don’t go to Scripture looking for you own idea; go searching for God’s.
There is a third tool. Not only do we need regular time and an open Bible, but we also need a listening heart. If you want to be just like Jesus, let God have you. Spend time listening for him until you receive you lesson for the day –then apply it.
