You Can Hear His Voice

Hello,

 Ananias also told Paul that God had chosen him to see the Just One and to hear the voice of His mouth. That means to have a revelation of the Just One—Jesus Christ. Therefore, you also can boldly say, “I have been chosen to have a revelation of that Just One and to hear His voice. The whole world may hear other voices but I can hear the voice of God.” You have been chosen to hear the voice of God.

Jesus said in John 10:1-5 that He is the good Shepherd, and we are the sheep. He said when the shepherd puts forth his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. The sheep would not follow a stranger because they don’t know (recognize or adhere to) the voice of strangers. Jesus used this to explain our response to His voice. For this reason, you can say confidently that you know and follow His voice. Jesus also said that if you belong to His Father you will hear His words and you will come to Him.

For instance, you’ve been reading these notes and the reason you can go on reading and believing is because your spirit bears witness that this is your Father’s Word. As a Christian, you cannot be deceived for too long because the truth is revealed in your heart. You can only be deceived for as long as you stay outside the real teaching of God’s Word and the teaching of the Spirit of God. So be assured that you can know His voice and you can choose right.
