Have You Got Your Ears On?

Rehearsals for Edinburgh Military Tattoo
If we want to hear God speak to us, we have to listen. In Matthew 11, Jesus spoke to the multitudes and said “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

Can you remember what the sermon was about last Sunday? Or the scriptures that were read? You will if you were listening for God to speak to you. Part of hearing from God is expecting to hear from God. And if we want to keep hearing from Him, we must be obedient and do what He tells us.

This is a key principle when it comes to us witnessing spontaneously. If we are to be effective in ministering to the world, we must be alert to what the Holy Spirit is telling us as we go about our daily routine.

It saddens me to think about it, but I wonder how many times I’ve missed the Lord simply because I wasn’t listening.

How about you? Have you got your ears on?
