Vital Step to a Radiant Faith-Offer Ears to God

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year to Shine, today’s Vital Step to a Radiant Faith is to offer our ears to God as an instrument of righteousness.

Having our ears open to God’s counsel is vital for building our faith, giving us direction, and gaining wisdom.

Offering our ears to God involves listening for God’s heartbeat-getting on board with what He loves and rejecting any activity that grieves His heart.

God wants us to listen for His voice, not just to edify ourselves, but also to share with others what we are learning from Him.

Jesus said in Matthew 10:27, “What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs.”  This is how we can be an influence for the Gospel today-by passing along what we have learned from the Lord.

Offering our ears to God is a vital step to a radiant faith that makes a difference in our world.
