Hear His Voice – Part 4
Have you noticed though that we have a lot of voices in our lives that are competing with the voice of our Shepherd? In this series we are going to discuss two phrases found in John chapter 10. We are going to look at the “voice of our shepherd” and the “voice of strangers.” As we learn to discern the Fathers voice from the strangers voice, we will properly prune our lives of overgrowth and become trees with leaves that do not wither and that bear fruit in every season of life.
We will be addressing:
-
The voice of the Shepherd and the voice of strangers.
-
The voice of the soul and the flesh.
-
The voice of family.
-
The voice of this present world.
-
How to determine which voice to follow. Developing spiritual sensitivity.
Part 4 – Curiosity can be a stranger voice in our lives. In this message we look into the John chapter 21 and the interaction between Jesus and Peter. Jesus is instructing Peter on some very important things concerning his ministry and life. Peter in the process of this conversation gets distracted by the presence of John and decides to ask the Lord about His purpose for John and his life. Jesus’ response is perfect for our series, He says, “what is that to you? You follow me.” This is how we are to live our lives, focused on following Jesus.
