Lesson 6: Listening, Obeying and Walking Daily
This last lesson is about daily life. Listening to God grows through small, faithful habits.
Scripture readings
Psalm 46:10
“Be still, and know that I am God.”
1 Samuel 3:1-10
Read the story in your Bible. Verse 10: Yahweh came, and stood, and called as at other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “Speak; for your servant hears.”
James 1:22
But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.
The lesson
Welcome, friends, to our final lesson. Let's talk about making this part of every day.
Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still, and know that I am God.” Quiet matters. Try a few quiet minutes with no phone and no hurry.
In 1 Samuel 3, young Samuel hears God calling and runs to Eli. Eli helps him understand it, and Samuel answers, “Speak; for your servant hears.” Notice that Samuel had a wise person to help him, and that is why testing and counsel matter.
James 1:22 says, “But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.” Listening leads to obeying. Psalm 119:105 says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.” God often shows us the next step, not the whole road.
Here is a simple daily rhythm. Be quiet. Read a little Scripture. Talk with God. Write down one thing you learned. Do one small act of obedience. It's faithfulness, not feelings, that carries us.
Thank you for taking this journey. God bless you.
