God is Spirit but satan is also spirit and his demons are also spirits, so when a voice speaks to you in your spirit, how do you know who is speaking to you? God speaks to people through dreams, we’ve read about that in the Bible. He spoke to Joseph and to many others through dreams, but satan also gives people dreams. So how would you know whether the dream is from God or from the devil? When the devil tempted Jesus in the desert, he used Scripture but the Holy Spirit will also give you Scripture, He will say: it is written. So how would you know who is speaking to you? Dear friends, Jesus said My sheep know My voice and they listen to Me. It depends on who you are listening to. If you are pure in heart and you seek to be pleasing to Jesus, you will be listening to Him, you will know His voice and you will know where the voice comes from, where the dream comes from and if you don’t know you will ask Him. God will not always give you pleasant dreams, He will not always tell you nice things, but when the Holy Spirit of God speaks to you, He reminds you of the Words of Jesus. He brings you into obedience to Jesus. He teaches you holiness and righteousness, not the desires of your flesh. He puts your focus on Jesus Christ and not on the things of this world. His sheep, the sheep of Jesus, know His voice because they seek to please Him. They are pure in heart, they don’t seek their own desires and they don’t seek to destroy other people for whom Jesus died. They’ve got the love of Christ in them and they care for righteousness above all else, they want to please Jesus. Dear friends, those who belong to Jesus, want to please Him, they know His voice, they listen to Him all the time. But those who love themselves and the work of the flesh, they listen to the devil and they will also find a Scripture to justify their sins. There are many of them in churches, they walk around with Bibles, they know the Bible very well and the devil gives them the right Scriptures, to justify their sins. If you listen to the Holy Spirit dear friend, you will produce fruit of the Spirit. You will be holy, you will be like Jesus, you will do the works of Jesus. You will not love the world, you will not be conformed to this world. If you are not sure who is speaking to you, PRAY and ask Jesus to show you and He will confirm to you. But cleanse your heart first friend and make sure that you truly want to please Jesus. Because then He will speak to you loud and clear all the time and you will know His voice because His sheep know His voice and they listen to Him because they only seek to please Him.
May Jesus bless you.
