Let’s be real—one of the biggest struggles we face as believers is this: How do I know if this thought is from God… or just me? That internal dialogue can feel just like your own reasoning, desires, or fears. So how can we tell when it's actually God speaking?
Our springboard for today’s discussion is:“...his sheep follow him because they know his voice.” — John 10:4
God speaks to His people. That’s a promise. But to discern His voice, we must learn His voice. Just like you’d recognize a loved one’s voice in a crowd, you grow to know God’s voice by spending time with Him—through His Word, in prayer, and in quiet reflection.
Your voice tends to serve your comfort. God's voice often challenges you to grow.Your voice is driven by logic or fear. God's voice carries wisdom and peace.Your voice says, “What’s best for me?” God’s voice says, “What glorifies Me?”
One key difference? God’s voice produces clarity, not confusion. It aligns with Scripture, not with self-centeredness. And it nudges us closer to trust and obedience—even when it costs us comfort.
So when you're wondering whether it's your thought or God's whisper, ask:Does this lead me to peace or panic? Truth or compromise? Surrender or selfishness?
Question of the Day:What’s one way you’ve mistaken your voice for God’s in the past?
Let’s Pray:Father, teach me to recognize Your voice above my own. Help me tune my spirit to Your tone and truth. I don’t want to follow my thoughts—I want to follow You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Let’s Get To Work!The more time you spend with the Shepherd, the clearer His voice becomes.
