Hearing His Voice (Part 2)

Written By Ife Peters

Read ‘Hearing His Voice (Part 1)’ to get context of Part 2

A man boarded a small plane in Alaska. Mid-flight, the pilot passed out in the clouds. No visibility. No control.

Emergency control responded.

They said:

  • I can see you, though you can’t see me.

  • If you obey my voice, you live.

  • If you don’t, you die.

The passengers followed the one voice through the storm and landed safely.

When you cannot see, voice replaces sight. Without the right voice, you have nothing.

Key Lessons

  1. Hearing precedes survival - Faith does not begin with understanding, it begins with hearing. Faith is not realistic and makes no sense often times than not.

  2. Obedience is not optional - Partial obedience equals disobedience. It may take you longer to get to the destination. You will get lost, miss turns and of course get exhausted along that way.

  3. Multiple voices cause destruction - Conflicting voices create confusion; confusion kills direction. (Do you know even well meaning voices, voices that also tell you the scripture can also cause destruction? Discernment is key! Read previous posts on discernment)

  4. God sees before you do - Safety is based on His sight, not your perception. Our perception is not wholistic. He always sees the bigger picture.

  5. The storm is irrelevant - Focusing on conditions instead of instruction leads to failure.

The Way Forward

The way home is not suffering again. The way home is obedience to the voice of the One who already sees and has authority.

Victory is achieved by walking in alignment with the voice that leads you through.

Anchor Scripture

“My sheep hear My voice, and they follow Me.” John 10:27

If your head is full of voices, you will self-destruct. Life is preserved by one voice: HIS VOICE.
