Theme: He speaks to you in "Spirit Language"
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me (John 10:27).
Oftentimes,
when we say God spoke to us, there’re those who wonder, “What language does He
speak?” They want to know how they too can hear God. God is a Spirit, and He
speaks to your spirit. What you have to learn is to listen to Him with your
heart - your spirit.
Being
born again, and having received the Holy Spirit, you’re one with the Lord. He’s
come to dwell within you and has mingled with your spirit. The Bible says, “But
he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17). Thus, His voice in your spirit will be
unmistakable. All you have to do is listen from within. He knows every
language. He can talk to you in any language.
The
most important thing about God speaking to you isn’t the language He spoke;
it’s whether your spirit received the words. He speaks to you in “spirit
language,” because He talks to your spirit. Your mind is what relates to
language.
Language
is created with sound for your intellect. But God isn’t a mind, neither does He
appeal to your mind. He doesn’t need your reasoning faculties to communicate
with you. As a result, He doesn’t need to put His message in a language for
your intellect.
When
He speaks to you in any human language, if you don’t receive the message from
your spirit, it may have no impact or meaning. It has to get to your spirit. If
you only got the words in your mind, you may even forget what He said, but your
spirit can remember.

Moreover,
when God speaks to you, your spirit will at once light up and bear witness that
He’s the One talking to you. It’s like what Jesus said in our opening verse,
“My sheep hear my voice….”
Train
your spirit to be a sure-guide and a dependable receptacle of God’s words and
signals. Activate your spirit by speaking in tongues frequently. Also, it’s
very important that you learn the Word of God because He never says anything
outside His Word. Praise God!
Prayer:
Dear
Father, I thank you for the ability to hear and recognize your voice. As you
speak to me from the Word and counsel me from within, I respond to your
guidance, promptings, and instructions, and receive the corresponding
blessings, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

4:36
Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might
instruct thee: and upon the earth, he shewed thee his great fire; and thou
heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.
Psalm
62:11
God
hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.
John
16:13
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all
truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that
shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
