Pastor Joel Osteen shares this sermon titled “Listening To The Whisper” where he says that God places gentle promptings in our hearts to guide us. When you hear that still, small voice, that’s Him leading you down the best path for your life.
He said we don’t always realize how God speaks to us. We’ve seen in the movies where God spoke to Moses, the voice boomed out of the heavens, sounded like thunder. It was so powerful and dramatic; it gave you goosebumps but most of the time God speaks to us in a gentle whisper. It’s not something loud. It’s not forceful. It’s called the still small voice. We feel an impression, a prompting, not in our head but in our heart. It’s like a suggestion, something that we suddenly know we’re supposed to do. That’s not random, that’s not you just thinking up things, that’s God speaking to you.
Six times in the gospels, Jesus said, “he that has ears, let him hear what the spirit is saying.” Everyone has ears but he wasn’t talking about physically; he’s talking about your inner ears. He was saying, are you sensitive to the whisper? Are you paying attention to what you’re feeling in your spirit?
It’s easy to ignore it, push it down. but if you’ll start obeying these promptings, the suggestions, the gentle whispers, God will lead you down the best path for your life.
