The Difficulty Men Have Hearing God
#1 First
The Scripture tells us in Isaiah 55 that His thoughts are not men’s thoughts.
““For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says The LORD. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9
In other words, when God Speaks to men, His Thinking is much higher then men even think or understand.
Men must receive from God, Revelation Knowledge to even understand spiritual things. God must make His Thoughts understood or spiritually discerned.
The Holy Spirit must Reveal to men His Thoughts, shining the light of understanding — or else men think unlike God.
“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:9-14
#2 Second
Men think from their mind, and the mind is earthly and is not heavenly.
All men must have their mind renewed and enlightened by The Holy Spirit, before they can even think God’s Thoughts.
#3 Third
All men who have been Born of the Spirit, have received The Holy Spirit — Who lives inside!
This Spirit is literally the Mind of Christ.
Men who are Spiritual, can hear by God’s Spirit and understand.
The written Word of God becomes knowing, for The Holy Spirit helps men read and understand.
The Voice of God speaking inside men can be heard and followed. This is why the Scripture says “if you are in the spirit you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.”
“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.” Romans 8:9
#4 Fourth
Men who are not Saved — but still unconverted — do not have The Spirit to help them, so they cannot even know, speak, or act spiritual because they are natural and earthly men.
This is why Jesus said: “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
“Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born [a]again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”” John 3:3
Men cannot even see, understand or comprehend, God’s Heavenly Kingdom thoughts and words.
These unconverted men are left to only their natural bodies, which cannot think or know Spiritual Things.
