Have you ever heard the voice of god speaking to you- Have you ever experienced that what I like to most often that still small voice that speaks to you of things that lie ahead. Maybe it says don't go down this path any further. Whatever it is that God wants to say to you he may speak in that still small voice our He may be very loud and clear. Maybe just maybe it all is really more about our be so over consumed with our lives and life styles that we only think that voice is small sounding to us because we are allowing it to be drowned out by what we value as really import. Often times that is the thing or things that we want, the things we think we must have, the things that make us look good. God gives us a free will to have and do anything we like, but contrary to the way many of us live, that did not mean that just because God will allow you to make a choice to have it, or do it, does not mean that it is what is good for you in the eyes of God and His plan for your life. That certainly gives us a few examples of why we can't hear Gods voce more clearly as this is where the flesh in control and the voice of God as we have said gets muffled out. Most hearing this message would find it hard to agree that you are anywhere near this problem and that likely only means that you are more in it that you think. This evening we will be looking back in Samuel only this time in 1 Samuel chapter 3.
