THE NUMBER ONE REASON THAT PEOPLE FAIL-THEY DON'T LISTEN
Jesus said, "he that has an ear, let him hear." Whenever He made that statement, it was a heads up that something important was ready to be said. I've heard some preachers say, "do you have your catcher on." Give the audience time to prepare to listen; something good is coming.
One of the first things to learn as a successful pastor, counselor, or parent is to listen to those sharing their life with you. When someone begins to tell you about their complicated life problems, it's pretty easy to give quick answers.
You often think, well, I've heard this before, so to save time for everyone, do this, and you'll be better. However, as you listen and let them talk, most often, they will answer their problems. The answer will come if you give it time. It's not unusual in the people ministry that God has given me, as I listen, to do just that.
"Are you listening to yourself?" I often say, "That was a confession of your spirit speaking the answer."
However, things like that don't happen if you don't listen long enough because you will miss the big keys that make the difference.
After all, our loving heavenly father is the best listener of them all. We take up much prayer time by unloading our hearts to him. We confess things that have been buried deep within our souls. We cry over the grief that has not been expressed to anyone but him. We even complain at times about the slow service that Heaven seems to have, wondering where our packages are.
After it's all over and we feel better; now he finally speaks. Because he has allowed us to speak and he took the time to listen, we now have room to receive the words he gives us for our deliverance and healing.
So talk to the father tonight before you pull the covers over you heading for dreamland. Take time to express your heart. He will listen. When you're through, then you listen. That's where the fun begins.
