Sometimes God’s voice is hard to hear through the routine of our daily lives. But, God is listening. He values our thoughts and prayers and wants to connect with us.
“I myself stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights, and the LORD listened to me that time also. The LORD was unwilling to destroy you. And the LORD said to me, ‘Arise, go on your journey at the head of the people, so that they may go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give them.’”
DEUTERONOMY 10:10,11 (ESV)
God Is Listening to You
“Sometimes we hope for a victory, dream of mastering a new level or seek after a championship. Or on a smaller level, we strive to learn a new skill, anticipate making the team or struggle to be on better terms with a teammate.
We pray and meditate on our goals and desires, putting in the required time and effort. However, we can get stuck in the waiting room of life where nothing seems to be happening.
We wonder: Is God listening?
Our Father in Heaven consistently hears our prayers, concerns and praises.
In Deuteronomy 10:10,11, God visited with Moses again, speaking directly to him. But the verses also highlight how God listens. “Listening” denotes a much more intimate interaction than simply “hearing.”
As God is so big, believing that He lends an ear to our diminutive desires seems unrealistic. However, as noted in John 9:31, the great Almighty is attentive to the hearts and minds of His people.
God cares about what matters to you. He cheers for us to succeed in the plans He has for us.”
