Ouvir a voz de Deus
Ouvir a voz de Deus é o privilégio supremo do cristão. Ele fala por sua Palavra, pelo Espírito e em circunstâncias — e as ovelhas reconhecem a voz do bom Pastor.
As ovelhas ouvem a voz do Pastor
Jesus disse: minhas ovelhas ouvem minha voz, eu as conheço e elas me seguem. A relação com Deus é íntima e pessoal.
27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Therefore everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to Me.
47 He who is of God hears God's words. Therefore you do not hear [them] because you are not of God.
24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes on Him who sent Me has everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation, but has passed from death to life.25 Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they who hear shall live.
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
14 And the Word became flesh, and tabernacled among us. And we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of [the] Father, full of grace and of truth.
Deus fala pela Palavra
Toda Escritura é inspirada por Deus. A Bíblia é a voz confiável de Deus registrada para nos guiar em toda verdade.
16 All Scripture [is] God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,17 that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work.
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture came into being of [its] own private interpretation.21 For prophecy was not borne at any time by [the] will of man, but holy men of God spoke being borne along by the Holy Spirit.
17 Then faith [is] of hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.
24 Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock.25 And the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house. And it did not fall, for it was founded on a rock.
28 But He said, No; rather, blessed [are] they who hear the Word of God and keep it.
Buscar e ouvir
Deus promete: 'Clama a mim, e te responderei.' Quando buscamos sinceramente sua voz, encontramos direção e revelação.
3 Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and inscrutable things which you do not know.
21 And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This [is] the way, walk in it, when you turn to the right hand and when you turn to the left.
24 and you said, Behold! The LORD our God has revealed His glory and His greatness, and we have heard His voice out of the midst of the fire. We have seen today that God talks with man yet he [still] lives.
3 The voice of the LORD [is] on the waters; the God of glory thunders; the LORD [is] above many waters.4 The voice of the LORD [is] in power, the voice of the LORD [is] in majesty.5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; yea, the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
4 I cried to the LORD with my voice, and He heard me out of His holy hill. Selah.
