23-079 SON'S OF THE PROPHET'S

Hey there, Warriors!

Have you ever felt like the place you're in is just too small for you? Like you're ready for more, but the space you're in just isn't cutting it? That's exactly how the sons of the prophets felt in 2 Kings 6:1. They were in a learning mode, living with their teacher, but they realized they needed more space to grow.

And let me tell you, just like those sons of the prophets, we can all learn how to hear God's voice better. It's a process, just like any other spiritual gift. We can position ourselves to hear God better, both in our inward attitudes and our outward actions. We can fine-tune our spiritual receptors to recognize His wavelengths and ignore others. We can become sensitive to His inner prompts and His external signals, looking for His will like explorers on a treasure hunt. We can grow in our confidence in what He is saying.

But here's the thing: most Christians get discouraged early in the process, long before learning how to recognize God's voice. When our prophetic instincts don't mature immediately, we think they aren't there at all. But Jesus made it clear that all of His sheep can hear His voice, and He never implied that our hearing is an instant skill. We have a lot to learn. If we press on, we will learn it.

So, Warriors, I have three questions for you:

1. Are you positioning yourself to hear God's voice better? Are you making space in your life for Him to speak to you? Are you taking time to read His Word and pray?

2. Are you fine-tuning your spiritual receptors? Are you paying attention to the things that distract you from God's voice? Are you recognizing His voice when you hear it?

3. Are you growing in your confidence in what God is saying? Are you taking risks and stepping out in faith based on what you believe He's telling you?

And here's your call to action: Don't give up on learning to hear God's voice. Press on, even when it feels like you're not making progress. Make space in your life for Him to speak to you, and then listen for His voice. Fine-tune your spiritual receptors, recognizing and ignoring the things that distract you from Him. And grow in your confidence in what He is saying. As you do, you'll find yourself moving from a small place to a bigger one, just like the sons of the prophets did.

Remember, Warriors, we can all learn how to hear God's voice better. It's a process, but it's worth it. Keep pressing on!

Let’s Pray…Father, I want to enroll in Your school of prophecy. No matter how long the learning curve lasts, I will persist under Your training. Teach me to hear and to speak.
