I Will Listen To You

GOD’S EARS ARE WORKING
Read Psalm 34:15
Who are God’s ears attentive to? If you believe in Jesus, God has given you His righteousness. Read 2 Corinthians 5:21 How did Jesus give you God’s righteousness? God says He listens to the righteous. He hears you when you cry out to Him because He is with you. How are you comforted knowing that God hears you?
HOW GOD HEARS YOU
Read 1 John 5:14
Fill in the blanks: If we ask anything according to God’s _________, then He will ______________ us. God is listening and waiting to give you an answer. He is there and promises that if you ask Him for the things He wants, then He will hear you. But how do you know what God wants? You set your eyes on Him and start learning about what He wants as you continue to read His Word.
GOD LISTENS ALWAYS
Read 1 Thessalonians 5:17
What does God ask you to do? Read Psalm 145:18 Who is God near to? Is God there for you when you pray to Him? God is near and with you, so you should always be in conversation with Him. Tell Him about your day. Tell Him about your troubles. Tell Him about what you need and trust Him with the things you want. God is listening. He might not answer the way you thought He should. He promises that He knows you best so you can trust that God will answer in the best way for you and for everyone else.
GOD LISTENS WHEN YOU CONFESS YOUR SINS
Read 1 John 1:9
What is God faithful to do when someone confesses their sins? God will listen to anyone who confesses their sins to Him. He wants to forgive anyone who wants forgiveness. God is working in all people so they can know Him. He is there and will hear anyone who confesses their sin and is truly sorry for what they have done. Do you have sin that you need to confess? If so, God is listening and ready to forgive!
GOD LISTENS WHEN YOU ASK FOR WISDOM
Read James 1:5
What does God give when He is asked? Does He give a little or a lot? God is there for you and knows that you need wisdom. He is ready to listen to your request for wisdom and willing to give you as much as you need. In life, you will have lots of situations where you will need more wisdom. Isn’t it comforting to know that God is there for you to give you the wisdom you need? Do you need wisdom for a situation today? What is it? Spend some time asking God for the wisdom you need… He is there and listening!
DIG DEEPER
Read 2 Chronicles 1:7-12.
See how King Solomon asked for wisdom. What did Solomon ask for? Did God give Him wisdom? Did Solomon ask for what God wanted or for earthly things?
