Ouvir
Ouvir é uma disciplina espiritual essencial. A Bíblia exorta: 'Quem tem ouvidos, ouça.' A fé vem pelo ouvir, e ouvir é mais que escutar — é obedecer e agir.
A fé vem pelo ouvir
Sem ouvir a Palavra, não há fé. A pregação do evangelho gera fé nos corações de quem ouve com disposição e humildade.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says:
‘By hearing you (ye) will hear and not understand,
and seeing you will see and not perceive.
Because the A hearts of this people have grown dull,
and their B ears hard of hearing,
and their C eyes they have closed;
lest they should see with their C eyes
and hear with their B ears
and understand with their A hearts,
and turn around; and I would heal them.’
Ouvir e obedecer
Não basta ouvir — é preciso praticar. Quem ouve a Palavra e a pratica é como o homem sábio que edificou sobre a rocha.
"Therefore whoever hears these words of mine and does them, I will compare him to a prudent man who built his house on the bedrock;
"Therefore whoever hears these words of mine and does them, I will compare him to a prudent man who built his house on the bedrock; and the rain fell, and the rivers rose, and the winds blew and attacked that house; and it did not fall, because it was founded on the bedrock. But every one who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be compared to a foolish man who built his house on the sand; and the rain fell, and the rivers rose, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall!" the words. Note that both houses had to face the same circumstances, but the verbs are different. Everyone faces adversity in this life—your foundation determines the outcome. Why do the adverse circumstances ‘attack’ one house, but only ‘beat on’ the other? The verb ‘attack’ implies an intelligence ordering the circumstances.
But in answer He said, "It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but by every word coming out of God’s mouth.’ "
But He said, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and obey it!"
But He said, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and obey it!"
Put into practice the things that you learned, received, heard and saw in me, and the God of peace will be with you.
Deus ouve nossas orações
O Senhor ouve os que clamam a Ele de coração sincero. Ele inclina os ouvidos para as nossas súplicas e responde com fidelidade.
Ouvir a voz de Deus
Jesus disse: 'As minhas ovelhas ouvem a minha voz.' Deus fala através da Palavra, do Espírito e das circunstâncias — cabe a nós ouvir.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
"Most assuredly I say to you that the one listening to my word and believing on Him who sent me has eternal life; he will not go into judging but has moved out of the death into the Life.
"Most assuredly I say to you that a time is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of the God, and those who listen will live.
Furthermore, He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, is He activated by works of law, or by hearing of faith?—
Sabedoria no ouvir
Seja pronto para ouvir e tardio para falar. A sabedoria começa com a disposição de ouvir instrução e aceitar correção.
Well about midnight Paul and Silas were singing hymns to God in prayer; and the other prisoners were listening to them.
Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in the ear behind closed doors will be proclaimed from the housetops.
"Now if your brother sins against you, go, confront him between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have won your brother.
"Now if your brother sins against you, go, confront him between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have won your brother. But should he not hear, take along with you one or two more, so that every word may be established by the mouth of two or three witnesses. And should he refuse to hear them, tell it to the congregation. But should he refuse to hear even the congregation, let him be to you just like the heathen and the tax collector.
