Strange Times

Those are two words I’m hearing a lot lately. They’re fitting for these days we’ve been walking through since a tiny virus grew to mammoth proportions and crushed normalcy under its weight. It feels as if everything in our world has changed over the last several months. And as a result of all the changes, all the people are feeling all the feelings. And they all want us to know. Life can be more than a little overwhelming right now. Social Media has become a battle zone as voices rise to carry over one another. 

Outrage and Fear

These things tag-team in our minds as we try and take in everything coming at us from every side. So, what do we do with all of this? How do we separate fact from fiction, truth from lies, direction from deception? ​​

We Listen!

Not to all the voices, mind you. But to One voice. There is One voice that will:

• Lead us
• Speak truth
• Bring comfort

​That voice belongs to God. Now, more than ever we need to hear Him. Although in the midst of the craziness it can feel as if God is far away, He is near, and we can hear Him if we simply learn to listen. 

​2 Peter 1:3 tells us,

“As His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue…”

2 TImothy 3:16 says,

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” 

God Speaks to us Through the Bible

His Word has everything we need to know how to live in these strange times we’re facing. 

Maybe you’ve been listening to God’s voice in His Word for years, or maybe you’re just beginning. No matter how long we’ve been listening, we could all use a focused time of training our ears to hear Him better.

​The book of Proverbs teaches us how to listen to God. As we walk through the verses, taking a chapter of Proverbs each day, we learn what it means to have true wisdom and knowledge with which to face our world.

​Because Proverbs has thirty-one chapters, and most months have thirty-one days, there’s a Proverb for each day of the month. A wonderful way to practice hearing God’s voice is to read through Proverbs every month. Over time, you’ll find that you recognize His voice above all the noise around you and you’ll find His hand guiding your steps as you move forward. ​

In a desire to help others grow in the practice of listening for God’s voice through His Word, I developed a study that will carry you through the Proverb-a-day reading plan.
