The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!”
Then Samuel said, “Speak, for your servant is listening.”
1 SAMUEL 3:10
To hear God you must seek God until you learn to hear him above all other things - you must be abandoned to him by desire. The Spirit of God lives in humans - The Lord is sovereign over all living things - over all creation.
He is found in the stars - the moon - the birds - the Lord is All in All - and he desires your time with him privately so you can learn to hear him and to understand the truth - that is everything leading time away from him is meaningless and is certainly passing away. Seek Jesus with all your heart and mind.
To live in the spirit of Jesus is to identify with his death in all situations of your life - such that you allow his resurrected life to be seen in you. To identify with the death of Jesus is to allow death to your natural self - so that you may live freely in the Spirit minding only one master - King Jesus. If you remain alive to your natural self - how can the living spirit of Jesus Christ be seen in you. How can you discern the voice of God?
The complete identification with the resurrected Lord King Jesus is what allows you to learn to discern his voice in all situations. It is in this relationship to Christ that I always hear God and he always hears me. I know the Lord Jesus well as he is my brother, my King, my hope and my destiny. I hear God - because I am always with God.
