Hearing from God above any other voices is so important and needed in our lives. It can be easy to fall into the trap of listening to just any voice that we hear online or even believing whatever we think in our minds. However, focusing on and listening to God’s voice is what is beneficial to our spiritual lives. Otherwise, it can be hard to know what the truth is if we are not listening to the truth: Jesus. Hearing from God shows us our identity in Him. In Matthew 17:6, God spoke about Jesus’s identity as God’s Son. God also speaks to us about who we are in Him and how much He loves us. This verse also took place pretty early in Jesus’s ministry. Listening to God helps us stay rooted in who we are in Him and gives us hope to continue in what He has called us to do.
