I have heard you teach that I created people with two ears and one mouth so that they will listen twice as much as you speak. There is another reason that I have given you two ears and one mouth. When you are communicating with Me, I want you to spend more time listening to Me than speaking to Me.
I have heard you exclaim often, "Lord, I know you weary of hearing me pray the same prayers daily."
I never weary of hearing your voice. In fact, many of My beloved do not even say out loud "Good morning." Thank you for always saying good morning to Me.
I want to challenge you now to be intentional about not only listening to Me, but also listening to others. The word, "hearken," is often found in the Scriptures. "Hearken" means to listen, listening.
After you finish your thanksgivings, praise, and worship to Me, wait in quiet and listen, listening. I always have things I want to tell you. When you listen, listening to others, you will be able to hear their hearts, not just their words. "He who has ears, let him hear," is an exhortation I gave often as I walked on Earth.
