Beats From Your Pastor’s Heart:
John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:”
The uniqueness of our new covenant relationship with the Lord is this: it is not a matter of our keeping outward commands, but of discovering His voice as an inner consciousness.
Thus, it is not being outwardly told what to do; it is being prompted from within concerning what to do.
So expect the Lord’s voice to come from within you.
And the way you will discover His voice is by His inner operation that manifests itself by inward promptings.
What is important then is how we respond to these promptings.
The prompt is the Holy Spirit’s way of speaking to you; it is His voice.
Of course, when you respond to the prompt by obeying a command, you open up a wealth of information in your heart.
Everything is instantly available to you by simply responding to the “prompt.”
As believers indwelt by the life of God, we have promptings within us.
These promptings are the Lord’s way of speaking to us.
The promptings are the Lord’s voice.
They are telling us that God is operating in us to open up all the riches of His life to our inward parts.
However, to get the benefit of God’s life within, we need to respond properly to the prompting.
In our daily life, when we say “Amen” to the prompting within and go along with it, we are obeying the voice of the Lord.
Until Tomorrow,
With A Shepherd’s Love
