When he has
brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him
because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact,
they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger's
voice." John 10:4-5 (NIV)
Throughout my
years of teaching, there’s one question I get asked the most.
“How do I know
the voice I’m hearing is really God?”
The answer is at
once very simple and very hard. You can tell it’s God’s voice, because you
recognize it.
