WHOEVER HAS EARS, LET THEM HEAR
Matthew 11:15 (NKJV) "He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
God hasn't stopped speaking. But sometimes, His voice feels distant, as if veiled in a silence that weighs more than noise. And that silence hurts. Not because God is absent, but because our ears are overloaded with noise, anxiety, urgency, and ego. How can we hear the eternal God when we're constantly tuned in to everything? We give our attention to fleeting news stories, every life update from acquaintances, and far more information than we can truly handle.
What Jesus said in Matthew 11:15, He wasn't speaking to a crowd of unbelievers, but the religious people of His time; those who knew the Word but had lost their hunger for it. The one who truly listens to God doesn't just hear with their ears, but with a surrendered heart. A heart willing to pause, to grow quiet, and let the Word become more than text. Let it become a living voice, cutting through the soul with truth and tenderness. God doesn't speak just to fill the silence, every Word of His is a doorway, an invitation, an urgent call to wake up. But if you get used to ignoring Him, you'll end up believing that silence is normal, and you'll live without direction, without fire and without purpose.
Today, listen again, shut out everything that competes with His voice. Don't settle for hearing the world when the living God is ready to speak.
PRAYER
Father, turn my ears to Your calling. Don't let me ever grow used to feeling like You have gone silent. Remove the noise that numbs me, the distractions that pull me away, the complacency that keeps me distant. If You are going to speak, Lord, here I am. Let me hear You, and don't let me live a single day without Your Word burning within me. In Jesus' name. Amen.
May the Peace of our Lord Jesus Christ fill you now and always!!!
