Thine Ears Shall Hear A Word

May 20, 2025

And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. Isaiah 30:21

This year my thoughts have kept coming back to "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:" John 10:27. How do we share what God does in our life? When should we, should we be constantly telling others, or not as much oversharing? Do we hear others sharing how they hear God's voice? Tonight as I was restoring old crashed hard drive files from throughout the years, I stumbled across an old website link of people's experiences with God.

On this website, there was a short article that started with the verse above. What caught my attention was that in my life, there have been times when I heard God's spirit speaking behind me. I have always felt the spirit speaking to me, but the most clear and memorable moments are when they are behind me.

My thoughts also go to how often do we hear others talk about how God moves in their lives? We usually hear in testimonies when people are saved, how God has interacted with them. My thoughts however, have been more on interactions after being saved. Do Christians talk about how God directs their paths? Do we see the passion in them, excitement to tell others? As I read the verse in context more with the rest of the chapter, I also see in Isaiah 30:8, "Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book..."

I have also been exploring the possibility of writing a book or finishing the one I had started years ago. Feels like God has been laying a path in front of me that I have been reluctant to pick back up, life is busy. These two thoughts seem to be coming together when I read this verse. I suppose we will see where this path leads, it may just be a teaching path. It could also be helping me pick what to write about. Formality of research or sharing God's works in my life. There have been several things put in my path that are tying into the thoughts of my soul this year.

A few days later, once again as I go to think about writing, I feel the spiritual warfare distracting me from it. Then I feel the pulling me back to it. Feels like title book she be more like "I Know His Voice", or something along those lines. Topic narrowing down to experiences.

To be continued...
