Today, If Ye Will Hear His Voice

Heb 3:7-8

 
 

7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

 
 

8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

KJV

 
 

God is calling every one of us to Him. Those who are not Christians, He is calling to give their lives over to Him. Those who are Christians, He is calling to a closer walk with Him. We all need to be listening to that call. No matter where we are in life, we need to be listening to the call of God. Sometimes, we can be too busy. The noise of life can drown out the still, small voice of God calling to us, "Come to Me." We can choose to ignore that voice, but we do so at great cost to ourselves. We are only hurting ourselves when we turn our back on God. He wants the best for us. He wants to give us good things. The questions remains: will we hear what He has to say?

 
 

Lord, help me to listen to what You have to say. Help me to listen today. Help me to have a soft heart that is willing to obey You. Help me to have wisdom to keep my priorities right. Help me not to allow other things in life to crowd out Your voice. Help me to be a better person because I listen to what You have to say.
