Week 3 Title: God Speaks, Are You Listening?
Scripture: Hebrews 1:1–3; John 1:1,14,18; John 16:12–15; Acts 13:2; Proverbs 11:14; Hebrews 10:24–25

Big Idea: God is not silent. He has spoken most clearly through Jesus Christ, and He continues to speak through His Spirit and His people.

I. God Speaks Through His Son

In the past, God spoke through prophets and visions (Hebrews 1:1).

Now, He has spoken most clearly through Jesus (Hebrews 1:2–3).

Jesus is the Word made flesh (John 1:14).

All Scripture points to Him (John 5:39–40).

To see and hear Jesus is to see and hear the very Word of God.

II. God Speaks Through His Spirit

The Spirit convicts, reveals truth, glorifies Jesus, and guides believers (John 16:8,13–14).

The Spirit actively leads God’s people (Acts 8, Acts 10, Acts 13, Acts 16).

The Spirit convicts while the enemy accuses.

The Spirit reveals truth while the enemy confuses.

The Spirit glorifies Jesus while the enemy glorifies self.

III. God Speaks Through His People

Wise counsel (Proverbs 11:14; 15:22).

Encouragement and healing (Proverbs 12:25; 16:24).

Influence (1 Corinthians 15:33).

The early church devoted themselves to teaching, fellowship, prayer, and encouragement (Acts 2:42; Hebrews 10:24–25).

Following Jesus is not a solo pursuit; we need each other to hear God’s voice.

IV. Application / Challenge

Don’t overcomplicate the divine—God is speaking clearly.

Ask: Are you in His Word? Are you listening to His Spirit? Are you walking with His people?

God speaks. The question is: are you listening?
