Today’s Word from God’s Word-Listen

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Listen.

To listen to the words of another person is to give someone your attention and hear what they say.

Listening is the key to learning. Listening is an opportunity for building relationships. Listening is also the bridge to faith in Jesus.

Faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word about Christ. It matters whose voices we heed.

In Matthew chapter 17, when Jesus was transfigured on a mountain, three of His disciples were witnesses to His brilliant appearance. A voice from a cloud was heard saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”

If we listen to the words of Jesus, we will draw closer to Him, learn His ways, and grow wiser in our understanding of His Kingdom.

Discover how the word “Listen” can have an impact on your life in the Year of God’s Word.
