I often think of frequencies as something you associate with your TV, radio or even your games console. You will need to find the right frequency in order to view what you want. Tuning into the frequency of heaven is pretty much the same, there must be communication for us to access what's being said in the heavenly realm
In the book of 1 Samuel, we are told that one particular night, a young child named Samuel was laying down, when he heard his name being called. He thought that it was his father Eli calling him, this happened for a further three times but the next time was when he answered God and said 'speak lord, for your servant hears'
Whilst reading the passage, I began to think about the relationship with our own mothers and fathers, how quick do we respond to them? How many times do they have to call us before they get our attention. When God wants to call us, he will keep on calling and calling until we respond just as he did with Samuel.
God is always speaking to us, he always has things to tell us in a number of ways. He can speak to us through people, by his word as evidenced in 1 Samuel 3:21 - 'For the Lord appeared again in Shiloh. For the Lord revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the Lord.'
As we see, God speaks in a number of ways. For us to recognise his voice, we have to spend time with him, have a close intimate relationship with him as its through this, that we will be able to find out what God is saying.
We are all of Sons of God, and many sons are able to identify when the father is speaking because they know him. John 10:2-4 says - 'But he who enters the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls in his sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice'.
You only respond to those who you know. Let's take Children, growing up they will listened to the voices of the people around them and whenever the person calls them, they will instantly respond. They may not see the person but because they know the voice, they will engage in conversation with them. We as Sons of God need to come to the stage where we instantly know the voice of God and that can come by getting to know God and also growing an intimate relationship with him.
Revelation 3:22 says - 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the spirit says to the Churches'.
Isaiah 42:23 says - 'Who among you will give ear to this, will attend and listen for the time to come'
So as can see, the scriptures tell us that hearing the voice of God is so vital in our relationship with him. Many people have heard the voice of God and acted upon it and in due course they were blessed but many heard the voice and didn't act upon it and they were also given what is due.
When God Calls, will you respond. How many times will he have to call you until you respond?
