Hearing God’s voice can often feel like one of the greatest challenges in our faith journey. We long for neon signs or audible words, yet Scripture reminds us that God speaks in quieter, deeper ways.

In today’s devotional, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, shares her own story of seeking God’s wisdom for an important family decision and learning that His voice doesn’t always come in the way we expect. Sometimes His silence invites us into deeper prayer, broader community, or even waiting until the timing is right.

Isaiah 30:21 gives us this comforting assurance: “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” We can trust that as we pursue Him with all our hearts, God will faithfully guide us — even when the path isn’t perfectly clear.

When the noise of life grows too loud, remember: you don’t have to rely on your ability to perfectly discern God’s voice. You can rely on His ability to guide you in love.

Today's Bible Reading:

“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” – Isaiah 30:21 (NIV)

Key Takeaways


God’s voice may not be audible, but it is always available through Scripture, prayer, and the Spirit’s leading.


His silence doesn’t mean absence — often it’s an invitation to wait, listen, and grow in trust.


We can rest in the truth that God’s guidance will always come at the right time.


Even if we miss a step, God is faithful to redirect us back onto His path.

Let’s Pray

Loving Father, we praise You for being El Roi, the God Who Sees. We confess that we often let the noise and busyness of life drown out Your voice. Attune our hearts to hear You clearly and help us walk confidently in the direction You lead. If we step off course, gently correct us and guide us back into Your will. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Calls to Action


Start your morning by asking God: “What do You want me to hear today?”


Write down moments when you sense God’s prompting and compare them with Scripture.
