Listening Impaired

"For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." (Romans 8:14 KJV). As children of God, we have the incredible privilege of being led by His Holy Spirit. When we accept Christ, the Spirit comes to dwell within us, to guide, convict, and shape us into the image of Jesus.

Yet this guiding is gentle, not forceful. As Adrian Rogers says, “The Holy Spirit leads you but He never drives you.” He points us to truth, but doesn’t push. He convicts us of sin, but doesn’t condemn. As Lucado notes, “The Spirit bids the bumblebee come to the flower but does not drag it there.” We must listen and cooperate with His leading.

As one pastor points out, “A stride forward by the Spirit may take you down trails you never dreamed you could travel and toward joys you never thought possible.” When we let the Spirit guide, remarkable things happen. But we must take those steps, prompted by His still small voice.

This manifests daily when we choose prayer over worry, patience over anger, and love over selfishness. We know and grow through listening to the Spirit. Yet sometimes we ignore or dismiss His voice. We let busyness, laziness, or stubbornness crowd out time for the Spirit.

Let us have ears to hear.

We all need more of the Spirit’s guidance. When faced with decisions, let’s pray first. When convicted of sin, let’s repent. When prompted toward action, let’s obey. As we stay in step with the Spirit, He will lead us to life and purpose beyond our wildest dreams. May we faithfully follow His gentle leading all our days.
