We follow the voice we hear the most. It can be overwhelming hearing the noise around us. Who are you listening to?
In the Bible, every faithful believer discovered how to discern the voice of the Lord over all other voices. Sometimes his voice came in the night (Samuel). Sometimes it came on the mountain (Moses). Sometimes it came in the valley (David). Sometimes it came in a dream (Joseph). Sometimes it came in a vision(Isaiah). “I heard the voice of the Lord saying...” Is 6:8.
God has spoken. He has given us His Word to speak to us, day after day.
God's voice is in the verses of His sent Word.
"My sheep hear my voice and they know me." John 10:27

"So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." Rom 10:17

The voice choice is ours today. Who are you listening to? Your own voice, the world’s voice, or the majestic voice of the King? He has a word for you. Rise above the noise. Choose this day the voice you will follow.
