The Holy Spirit: His Voice
For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Psalm 95:7
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts." Hebrews 3:7-8
The Holy Spirit is the Voice of God. No matter how far you wander, He will call out to you. No matter how hard your heart, you can’t block out His Voice. He could speak audibly, but He usually speaks directly from His heart to yours. The Holy Spirit doesn’t want you to miss His Voice or misunderstand what He is saying. His message is simple: “The Father loves you, and the Son died for you; now the Holy Spirit is calling you back into fellowship with them.”
Lord, You are my Shepherd, and I am Your sheep. You make me lie down in green pastures; You lead me beside still waters. You restore my soul. When I begin to stray, You call me back into Your fold. When I wander out of sight, I hear Your Voice calling out for me. I strayed into the valley of death, and I fell into a rocky pit. I thought that I would die and You would never know what happened to me. Then in the night, I heard Your Voice calling through the darkness. Forgive my hard heart; come rescue me, and bring me back into your fold.
The Holy Spirit is the Voice of God. He will prepare a table full of food for you, and He will pour oil into your wounds for healing. He will take you where you can dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Holy Spirit, I Hear Your Voice; I want to come home to You. My pit is deep; come lift me up and free me from the control of sin. I read that the Shepherd put the straying lamb on His shoulder and returned home rejoicing (Luke 15:4-5). Lord, bring me home. Amen.
The Holy Spirit calls you back to God.
