Many wonder today, “Can I hear God’s voice?” The answer is yes! The Bible and Church history are full of examples and instruction as to how we can safely and confidently hear the voice of God.
Jesus told Martha, “One thing is needed, Mary has chosen the better part.” Mary quieted herself and chose to listen to Him. Not just teaching, but relationally connecting with Jesus. The Message Bible translates as “One thing only is essential.”
There are many things that can help us grow as Christians. But Jesus made it clear that one essential thing is to have close relationship with Him, whereby we can hear Him. If you have a close relationship with someone, communication is involved. Even Jesus lived in this close relationship with the Father and could hear His voice. He demonstrated how to live from relationship and communication with the Father.
