Summary Discover how to discern and tune into God's voice with our enlightening bible daily devotional podcast. Introduction: How Do You Listen to God’s Voice? Have you ever wondered how to hear God's voice? In a world filled with distractions and noise, it can be challenging to discern his gentle whispers amidst the chaos. How do you listen to God's voice amidst all the busyness and noise? As we delve into the story of Samuel in 1 Samuel 3:1-10, we discover valuable insights on how to attune our hearts to God's voice. The Dangers of Distraction 1 Samuel 3:1-10 recounts a time when Samuel, a young boy serving in the temple under the guidance of Eli the priest, heard a voice calling his name in the middle of the night. Initially, Samuel assumed it was Eli calling him, but after three attempts, Eli realised that it was the Lord speaking to Samuel. This passage highlights the dangers of distraction. In today's fast-paced world, we are constantly bombarded with worries, plans, and activities that consume our attention. From the television to the internet, to our mobile devices, these distractions can prevent us from hearing what God has to say to us. How Do You Listen to God's Voice? - Weed Out the Noise If we make no effort to listen to God, then the weeds of worry, busyness, and the pursuit of pleasure can grow and strangle our spiritual lives. Just as a garden needs regular weeding to flourish, our hearts require intentional pruning to create space for God's voice. So how do you listen to God's voice? How can we weed out the noise and create an environment where God's voice can flourish? It starts with prioritising our time and attention. Instead of allowing distractions to dictate our lives, we must intentionally carve out moments for silence, reflection, and prayer. When we quiet our hearts and minds, we create a fertile ground for God to speak. It may require setting aside specific times each day, away from the noise of the world, to seek his presence. Whether it's through reading Scripture, meditating on his Word, or simply listening in stillness, we open ourselves up to the possibility of hearing his voice. How Do You Listen to God's Voice? - Attune Our Hearts Samuel's story also teaches us the importance of being receptive to God's voice. When Samuel finally recognised that it was the Lord speaking, he responded with humility and a willingness to listen. He said, "Speak, for your servant is listening" (1 Samuel 3:10).
