Who said God does not speak to us? Just as we have an inner eye to imagine, envision, and see in another dimension, we have an inner ear to hear inaudible voices of past, present, and future. If you go into the quietest place you know, block out all sound, and simply listen, you may be surprised at the sounds you hear and the voices you hear. You may hear your own voice in your head, reminding you of something you need to do. You may hear the voice of a parent, friend, or loved one saying something funny or wise. You may hear a voice of criticism, anger, or judgement, bringing shame or belittlement. If you keep listening, intently and frequently, you may just hear the voice of God beyond the other voices.
If you have never taken the time to listen, how do you know what can be heard at the inner most recesses and the outer limits of your thoughts. Faith and creativity can come through hearing. I believe most song writers, playwrights, composers, speakers, preachers, and others who are gifted with creative audible abilities, only reproduce what they have heard through their inner ear. Maybe psychotic voices only make themselves audible because of our tendency to deafen our inner ear. If God is speaking to me, I want to hear. If my own inner voice is trying to show me something, point me in a better direction, or warn me, I want to hear.
Being disciplined for success involves hearing the inaudible and listening for what no one else can hear. If we all have a unique purpose to fulfill on earth, then there may be personal instructions for each of us, designed for our ears only. Listen with your inner ear and carefully evaluate what you hear.
