Hear His Voice

In John 10:4 Jesus said, "...the sheep follow him, for they know his voice." How true that is. This fact becomes evident in John 20:15-16. There our resurrected Lord appeared to Mary Magdalene, and she didn't recognize Him. She thought He was the gardener. She said, "'Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away.'" [And] Jesus said to her, 'Mary!' She turned and said, 'Rabboni' (which is to say, Teacher)." When did Mary recognize Jesus? It was when she heard His voice. It was when He spoke-His word. When do we recognize Jesus? When we hear His Word. Remember yesterday's devotion? If you abide in His Word, you are his disciple indeed. Stay in the Word. Read it and live it out every day. Jesus wants to speak to you today. Won't you listen by opening up your Bible and reading His Word?
