THEME: Heâs Up Close and Personal
(Godâs Voice Is Personalised When He Speaks To You)
SCRIPTURE READING: Acts 9:4-5 .
âThen he (Saul) fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, âSaul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?â And he said, âWho are You, Lord?â Then the Lord said, âI am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads.â
Let's TalkđŁď¸
When Jesus spoke out of heaven to Saul, He called him by name and said, ââŚSaul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?â He can get that up close and personal when He talks to you. He spoke to Saul (who later was called Paul) in the Hebrew tongue (Acts 26:14), which Paul understood. Interestingly, those travelling with Paul heard the same voice but couldnât make out the words. The voice from the Lordâ His messageâwas specific and personal to Paul!
God talks to us every day! Heâs personal with you when He speaks. He can speak to you in a familiar voice and in a language you understand. The more you study and meditate on the Word, the easier it is for your spirit to recognise and respond when He speaks to you. Paul didnât know it was the Lord speaking to Him until the Master said, ââŚI am Jesus, whom you are persecutingâŚ.â He had to reveal Himself to Paul, which He does with us today, through the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit reveals the Word to you and guides you in Godâs perfect will. He speaks to you every day. That voice that asked you, âHave you prayed today?â was the Lord talking to you through the Holy Spirit; it wasnât your mind. He may tell you, âYouâre not studying the Word as you shouldâ or âYouâre not speaking in tongues enough.â Donât ignore it and think itâs your mind talking to you. That has been the dilemma of many; theyâre unable to distinguish the voice of the Spirit from the voice of their minds because they really donât know Him, yet theyâve received Him to live in them.
The Holy Spirit is your teacher (John 14:26), and you have to learn to listen to Him in all things. Heâs interested in every detail of your life and will guide you through life in glory, dominion, and excellence if youâd listen and respond to His voice.

Pray
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for your presence in my life through the Holy Spirit. Life isnât a mystery for me because the Holy Spirit teaches me all things. The truths of God are unveiled to my spirit, and by them I walk in the realms of glory, in Jesusâ Name. Amen.
