We need to hear the voice of God. How do we do it?

The first step is to spend more time and meditate on the word of God, in this way we will learn to listen to the voice of God.

4 The Lord God has given me the tongue of the learned, that I might know how to speak words to the weary; he will awaken me morning by morning, he will awaken my ear that I may hear as the wise.

Isaiah 50:4

We must be aware that we often speak more than we hear, that is to say we are better at it, but we also know that communication with God is both speaking and listening, and he fervently desires that his children listen to him.

We learn well that the Bible is the main instrument that God uses to speak to us, that is why it is so important to study the word of God. When we frequently spend time studying the word we are developing the mind of God, a spiritual discernment that connects us with God, we hear the voice of God.

There are times when we think that God has to speak loudly for us to hear Him, but if the voice of God is not our priority, it is practically impossible for us to hear Him. We have to pray and ask Him to teach us to listen to His voice and then practice it. We also have to practice stillness so that, like a radio, we are tuned to the frequency of God. We achieve this by feeding ourselves daily and meditating on His word. All of this transforms our mind, our heart, and sharpens our spiritual senses to clearly hear the voice and direction of God.

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

John 10:27

As we put this into practice, we develop a spirit sensitive to the voice of God and we can hear Him in the stillness of calm as well as in noisy and restless moments. This is a vital skill that we must develop to receive God's guidance and direction in all circumstances. Reading God's word, meditating on it, and crying is more than we can understand; it is also a source of blessings for our lives. All of this leads us to hear God's voice more easily.
