“The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars … maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory” – Psalm 29:9
“And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way” – Isaiah 30:21a
God’s voice is so powerful it breaks trees, and does whatever he wants it to do. Yet, he is so gentle with us – he is heard in a whisper and lets us choose to follow.

I have come to believe that hearing the quiet whisper of the transcendent God is one of the most extraordinary privileges in all of life–and potentially the most transforming dynamic in the Christian faith.
When people hear from heaven, they are rarely the same again. When the sovereign God chooses to communicate with someone–whether eight, eighteen or eighty years old–that person’s world is rocked.”
– Bill Hybels, The Power of a Whisper – Hearing God. Having the Guts to Respond Introduction, A Fifty-Year Whisper-Fueled Odyssey
Jesus said,
“My sheep hear my voice” – Jesus (John 10:27a)
Ask to hear.

“Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you” – 2nd Corinthians 12:8-9aLennon’s tomb, 11:00 at night during the changing of the guard, a Russian, a friend, and I discussed the vast changes taking place. Seventy years communism has prevented open discussion about God and all that had changed. As we left we told this man we would pray for him and his response caught us off guard, “You mean, you can talk to God?!”
But that is exactly the point and privilege we have in Christ – we talk to God, he hears, and he talks to us. Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice”1
