Listening To God

Mark 8:18

Listen, For No One Else Will

2 Timothy 4:3
So many in our culture today listen to what THEY want to hear.
They seek pastors whom agree with them and their lifestyles.
No one actually wants to seek sound doctrine or knowledge of God.
"Tell me I am okay ..."
"Tell me what God wants me to do ..."
"Do not make me change ..."
"Show me how to make God change

When your relationship with God becomes about you, not God, you have strayed into religion - not Christianity!  Time to repent ...

Listening Will Make You Wise
Proverbs 2:1-5
If you read ...
If you search ...
If you call upon God ...
You will learn to FEAR God ...

And FEAR is the beginning of wisdom.

Listening Produces Faith
Romans 10:17
Comes from hearing ...
Comes from reading ...
Comes from listening ...
Comes from doing.

Listen, Great Things Are Coming
1 Corinthians 2:9
The after life.
"More than you can imagine".
But we make up our own ideas of what comes next.
We focus on death and not life.

Listen, Time To Hear Will Not Last
Hebrews 3:7
Not enough to just hear ...
Obedience is the act of responding to hearing God's Word.

Obedience, what God expects of us, what God wants from us, what is so hard to do.
