The Voice of God

 Scripture:

“You will hear a word spoken behind you, saying, “This is the correct way, walk in it,” whether you are heading to the right or the left.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭30‬:‭21‬ ‭NET‬‬

Observation:

This is a promise given to Israel, and to us as children of God. In the context, God’s people were returning to Him and this is the promise of those who follow the Lord. It says, “You will hear a word spoken behind you.” That voice will tell you the correct way to walk. In the New Testament we are told to walk in step with the Spirit. We were meant to be led by the Spirit of God.

Application:

This verse promises us that we will hear the voice of the Spirit, showing us what to do and which way to go. When we need direction, we should listen for the voice of the Spirit. When we need guidance, we should listen for the voice of the Spirit. We should be hearing words spoken behind us giving us direction and leading us to a closer walk with Christ. As for me, I want to live a Spirit-sensitive life and to be led by Him every day.

Prayer:

Lord, You know my desire to hear Your voice clearly. You know every detail of my life and the direction I should be going at any given time. Guide me Holy Spirit. Teach me Mighty God. Show me things to come and help me prepare for them. I want to hear the voice of God clearly. 

Your Son,

Jeff
