Hello,

T
oday, we're talking about hearing.
"Still other seed fell on fertile soil. This seed grew and produced a crop that was a hundred times as much as had been planted!” When he had said this, he called out, “Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand," NLT, Luke 8:8.
Hearing.
A few thoughts about hearing, (1) hearing can be the act of taking in sound, (2) hearing can mean understanding, and (3) hearing can mean understanding and acting on the message. As a child, when mom spoke, I took in the sound of her voice, I understood what she said and did as she directed. My life was in the balance.Jesus often says, "anyone with ears to hear let him hear." Ooooh. When God speaks we ought to listen to Him, don't you think? There's a great penalty for not acting on His word. But, conversely, there's great joy in doing as He says. We cannot know what God wants of us unless we stop and genuinely listen to Him. And once we hear, it's best we obey.You can look at the Bible material for our topic and listen to the audio.Garland Van Dyke[email protected]www.biblepoints.org/bible-points
