Pay Attention To That Still Yet Small Voice Inside
Pay Attention To That Still Yet Small Voice Inside
ByDirect my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me. – Psalm 119:133
You’ve heard it before, that voice inside that tells you to go left when you would have otherwise went right. That voice that tells you not to go down the street alone at night.
It’s that still voice inside of you. It guides and directs you. Some people call it intuition, others call it fate.
My friend I believe that this voice that I speak of is the voice of God. Well you may say “Jarrod, how can it be the voice of God when it sounds like my inner voice?”
Well, I believe that God reveals Himself much differently today than He did back in the Bible days. He doesn’t ring out of the heavens as a big voice of thunder, calling out to you. He probably won’t come in the form of a burning bush, like He did with Moses the great.
No, He comes in the form of that still yet small voice inside of you. You see, He doesn’t push or prime you, He merely directs and advises you. He nudges you. He encourages you to do right when you want to do wrong.
The voice of the Lord sounds like your own voice speaking to you, don’t ignore it.
Have you ever experienced a time when you were about to do something then suddenly felt strongly inclined to do otherwise? Well, that my friend is a great example of how God operates inside of you. Don’t shun that feeling, for you very well may be ignoring the Lord Himself.
Just like the Psalmist said, “order my footsteps in your word and let no sin over rule me,” this should be your prayer.
I dare you to tune out the distractions, turn off the TV for a while. Get in a quiet place and meditate on God. You will be surprised at what happens when you get still and allow God to speak to you.
God is looking for those who are willing to position themselves in a place to hear what He has to say. Are you that someone?
Whether you call it intuition or fate, don’t ignore that voice inside. Allow the voice of God to guide and direct you along your path and watch as you rise to a new dimension in life today!

Hi Jarrod,
This post brings a smile to my face
It reminds me of a snippet from Oprah… ‘God speaks to us in whispers and when we don’t listen he hits us upside our head.’ Goodness… I do my best to get quiet, go within, and listen to Him when he whispers!
Thank you for the great post!
Awesome post Jarrod
Many of us are expecting God to communicate with us in some very specific ways and yet God is not like that. We cannot dictate how we want to hear from God, we just need to humble ourselves and listen carefully. I view our conscience as a direct link to God, unfortunately, the more we ignore it, the harder it is to hear.
That still small voice is God living inside of us!
Jarrod,
I recently found your site via upgradreality’s blog list. All looks good to me and I will check back often. Peace!
Hi Jarrod!
Often times we don’t pay any attention to that voice. We simply go about our business doing what “we” want to do. As a result, we say, I wish, I would have, could have, etc…done this in the first place.
It is always best to pray and be led in the direction that is best for us to go in. This can be so hard at times. Your post brings it home.
I enjoyed your post!
hi jarrod,
how are you?
the post reflects the ministry of the holy spirit and i am reminded of the scripture which says He will be our counsellor, lead us, comfort us and guide us into all truth.
take care ad enjoy the rest of the day
Oh, I heard that voice many times Jarrod. Infact, God’s answer to our prayers and questions come through “the small voice inside of us.”
Thanks for sharing Jarrod
Exactly, this is absolutely true. And when God hit’s us upside our head we often don’t know exactly what happened. We wonder where we went wrong. Totally agree, Kim! Thanks for sharing!
