Learning to Hear God’s Voice

I Value His Voice

July 21, 2019

Please turn to 1 Samuel 3:1, Exodus 19:10-11

“The boy Samuel ministered before the LORD under Eli. In those days the word of the LORD was rare; there were not many visions.” 1 Samuel 3:1

Question: What kind of value do you put on hearing from God?

Practical Ways to Hear His Voice

1. Set an appointment (ref. Exodus 19:10-11, 19)

App: Determine a time and place

2. Be still and worship

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God…” Psalm 46:10a

(also see: Exodus 14:13a, 2 Chronicles 20:17, 21-24)

3. Pray and read (ref. Luke 5:16)

I rise before dawn and cry for help; I have put my hope in

your Word. Psalm 119:147

What should you pray? Whatever is on your heart

Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you. 1 Peter 5:7 NLT

Where should you read?

4. Listen and write

My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for

the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer. Psalms 45:1

(Also see: 2 Chronicles 28:19, Habakkuk 2:2)
