God speaks. He is not an idol who is mute. We are the ones who have ears, but cannot hear.
If you want to hear God's voice you must love and pursue true, sound,
and deep doctrine. Hearing God's voice requires dying to ones self and
trusting God's Word, the scriptures. Growing in love and growing in
knowing another, requires pursuing who they are. If you say you want to
hear God's voice, but do not pursue the
scriptures diligently as a treasure and as a delight, you are wanting
you own ends, not His voice. May we spur one another, sharing with one
another the word of Christ.
His own, He loved. And He loved us
first. And in this truth we can love Him. It is the Gospel that allows
us to have peace with God. And it is the power of Christ's work that
enables and performs righteousness.
I appeal to you therefore,
brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living
sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of
your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what
is good and acceptable and perfect.
(Romans 12:1-2 ESV)
