Hearing GOD’S Voice: Part 2

Our daily priority should be to hear GOD’S Voice!

As a devoted believer walking in Holiness, there was an unvarying requirement that is consistent throughout Scripture: the requirement to hear GOD’S Voice.

Moses wrote by THE SPIRIT in Exodus chapter 15:

26 and said, “If you diligently heed the Voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His Sight, give ear to His Commandments and keep all His Statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD Who heals you (Jehovah Rapha).”

The Hebrew says: if you will listen, listening.  We are to use both ears without distractions.  If Israel obeyed, they would never be sick.  FATHER would take on full responsibility to keep everyone in Israel healthy, no exceptions.  Think about it!  What would happen if we who are devoted believers, fully embraced this revelation and expectation?  No more medical bills!

Everywhere where GOD speaks to us about healing, the emphasis is on what we listen to.  Those of us who will hearken diligently to HIS Voice, will be free of sickness and disease.

And in Exodus 19:

3 And Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:

4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.

5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine.

6 And you shall be to Me a Kingdom of priests and a Holy nation.’ These are the Words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”

In order to walk in mature Holiness, we must hear HIS Voice and carry out HIS commands.  How can we expect to walk in Holiness without hearing HIS Voice?

First, GOD brought Israel to HIMSELF, the primary purpose of redemption.  Secondly, HE wanted them to obey HIS Voice so that they would be living at a higher level of provision and blessing unknown to other people.  Third, they were to keep HIS Covenant which finalizes their relationship with HIM.  Forth, they would be a Kingdom of priests and a Holy nation.  This is true for us as well.  FATHER’S Word and Divine Intent do not change with time.

And Moses recorded by THE SPIRIT in Deuteronomy chapter 28:

1 “Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the Voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth.

2 And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the Voice of the LORD your God:

15 “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the Voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:

This chapter sets out two different things that could come upon Israel: blessings of obedience, or the curses of disobedience, depending on their response.  In each case, it is determined by whether or not they hear GOD’S Voice.  It begins and ends with diligently listening to GOD’S Voice.

If we diligently listen to GOD’S Voice, all the blessings in verses 3 through 14 will apply to us.
