September 28
“Samuel! Samuel!” as he had before. Samuel said, “Speak, because your servant is listening.”
1 Samuel 3:8–10 (ISV)
He Trains You to Hear Him
Samuel was still a young boy when he learned to hear God’s voice. God called his name, and Samuel learned to listen.
God wants to teach you to hear and follow Him too. You do not have to know everything right away. Learning to recognize God’s leading takes training.
Think about learning to ride a bicycle. You may not get it right the first time, but you keep practicing. Your Heavenly Father is also patient with you.
When you make a mistake, He does not stop loving you. He gently teaches you and shows you the right way to go.
So slow down and pay attention to His Word and His leading. Keep reading His word and learning His voice.
Read Your Bible.
Proverbs 22:6. Isaiah 48:17. Psalm 32:8-9
Speak the Word!
As I learn God’s word, He trains me to hear His voice.
