God's Voice

     "The man who enters by the gate is the shepherd
     of his sheep. The watchman opens the gate for him,
     and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his
     own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has
     brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them,
     and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.
     But they will never follow a stranger; in fact,
     they will run away from him because they do not
     recognize a stranger’s voice."
      ~ John 10:2-5

God calls you and knows you by name. Do you know His voice? When He speaks to you, do you listen and follow Him? Sometimes it seems really easy to ignore God’s voice and say you didn’t know it was Him. But you know and God knows that that’s not true. Obeying God is not always easy, but the Good Shepherd will never lead you astray.
The enemy will lead you astray, though. Don’t listen to a voice that isn’t God’s. Don’t listen to advice that is contradictory to God’s teaching. Be active in not listening; run away from the enemy and his lies.
