The Only Voice That Matters

Have you noticed how many voices are speaking in our world today? It seems everywhere you turn everyone has an opinion. And these opinions are as varied and numerous as the stars in the sky.

Every media is an authority on any subject you would want to discuss. Television certainly drives its agenda with a vengeance, social media is all over the map and the internet, well who can come close to describing what goes on there.

With just a click of a button there is unlimited access to resources, true and otherwise, and in this saturated information environment you would assume that humanity as a whole would be in a very good place. So why do we have multitudes feeling unsafe, insecure, frightened and just plain uncertain about what to do next. Could it be we are listening to the wrong voices?

Proverbs 16:25 says: There is a way which seems right to a man and appears straight before him, but at the end of it is the way of death. You see God is the great communicator and He is always speaking to us. He created us in His image so we have unlimited potential and ability to hear, but this potential can only be realized by being connected to the Lord God Almighty, the Creator of the universe, the One and Only God, the One who wrote the users manual.

It is by reading the Word of God and allowing the Lord to speak His revelation knowledge that allows us to be able to have wisdom and understanding for any situation we find ourselves facing. It is having a personal, intimate relationship with the designer and manufacturer so to speak. We get all kinds of insight and secrets just by spending time with Him. After all, He sees the complete picture, past, present and future.

Even with all the voices clamoring in the world today, it is a  comfort to know we have access to the ONLY VOICE THAT MATTERS……that we can come boldly to God’s throne to see and hear the mysteries and secrets of His creation and experience the great and mighty things He has in store for those that love Him.

Jeremiah 33:3 says: Call to Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things, fenced in and hidden, which you do not know (do not distinguish and recognize or have knowledge of and or understand)
