[0:00] The 4th of February, listening to God. Our passage is Psalm 25, verse 4. Make me to know your ways, O Lord. Teach me your paths.

[0:15] Wouldn't it be a strange kind of friendship if only one person did all the talking all the time? There needs to be a conversation, two people speaking together. When we pray, we are speaking to God.

[0:26] This is a really great privilege. We bring many requests to God in prayer, as well as praising Him for the many blessings He gives to us, especially in salvation.

[0:38] We speak to God, but does He speak to us? If He does, how can I hear Him? In Psalm 25, verses 4-5, the psalm writer makes his requests.

[0:50] Show me your ways, teach me your paths, guide me in your truth and teach me. How would God answer? God answers these requests and all our requests through the Bible.

[1:02] It is the main way God speaks to us all. There is the daily discipline of really getting to know the Bible because it is God-breathed and useful for every aspect of our Christian living. The more we get to know our Bibles and apply what we need to our daily situation, the more we will find that God is speaking to us.

[1:20] He will guide, prompt us and correct us as we come to know His ways, His paths, His truth better. And a prayer. O Lord, do show me your ways, teach me your paths, guide me in your truth and teach me, I pray.

[1:39]  Amen.
