We prefer hearing our own voices. Anyone going to own that besides me? We want to hear our own wisdom - our own advice - our own counsel - our own ideas.
Don't deny that.
We gather our own crowns and bring our own cheerleaders near. We talk about our own kingdoms. And we ignore the voice of God.
But there is only one King's chair.
The Voice coming from that chair isn't false or in error. That Voice may not always tell you what you want to hear, but following that Voice will bring blessing, peace and security.
There is great competition in the world about whose voice should be loudest. Blessed is the man or woman who doesn't listen to everything he or she hears. Blessed is the one who figures out which voice to listen to and which to discard.
Blessed is the one who knows his chair.
And be blessed.
