Good morning! How are we faithing? Listening for the Lord to speak is hard because of all the other voices we hear every day. The world speak insistently. God speaks quietly and concise. God speaks through his Word and his Word speaks through others too. The world bombards us to the point we can stop hearing God. I see believers accepting sin and you can be sure when that happens, opposition to Gods Word has been proliferated loud and in our face. If we are not in the Word we can fall for the enemies lies. 

Isa 50:4-5  The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.  The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.

If any idea is pushed hard and often by the world you can bet it is a lie. The author of lies is convincing if we don't pay attention. A smile and a handshake can deceive. A "feel good" idea may be appealing but in reality it may do the opposite. Tune to the voice of God. Test spirits. Compare anything you see, hear, read to the Word. 

Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word that is our daily bread. Help us be wise in discerning you voice. Help us been your servants and help us put in check our egos and arrogance. In Jesus name, amen
