1 John 4:1
"Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." 1 John 4:1
Who Is The Author of This Communication?
From myself?
From satan and those who yield to him?
From God?
God Communicates to Us In Different Ways:
God gave the Bible for instruction. 2 Timothy 3:16
God gave teachers of the Bible for instruction. Romans 10:14; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 1 Corinthians 2:13
God is with us in life to teach us. Proverbs 20:30; Psalm 119:67, 71-72
How To Test A Teaching
Does it agree with the Bible? Luke 21:33
Does it make me more like Christ? Philippians 2:5
Do I sense God’s peace about it? 1 Corinthians 14:33
Blessings of Hearing God’s Voice
It assures me that I’m God’s. John 10:14, 16
It protects me from mistakes. Job 33:17-18
It is the secret to a productive life. John 15:5
As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” Hebrews 3:15
Reflect On This Thought:
To be brought within the zone of God’s voice is to be profoundly altered.
