From Moses’ encounter with the burning bush and Israel’s trembling before Mount Sinai at God’s voice, Joseph Z reminds us that God is always speaking. The real question is, are we listening? Join Joseph as he unveils the powerful truth about the voice of God.
Joseph emphasizes that God is a Spirit and that those who worship Him must do so in spirit and truth. He references 1 Samuel 3:4-7 to illustrate how God communicates with us, highlighting that God is always speaking; the real question is whether we are listening. He uses the story of Moses and the burning bush, as seen in Exodus 3:2, to show another example of divine calling. Additionally, Joseph recounts how God spoke directly to the Israelites, with His voice roaring like thunder from the mountains.

He refers to Exodus 24:16 to demonstrate how God communicated with Moses, reaching from the spiritual realm into the natural world. When God spoke, His voice was heard, His thoughts were revealed, and His words were perceived by everyone present. Also, Hebrews 12:18-21 describes what occurred when God addressed the Israelites, leading them to be consumed with fear and prompting them to ask Moses to intercede for them.
Joseph further explains that the pure holiness of God broke into fallen creation, confronting humanity's sin when He spoke. The Israelites witnessed God's consuming fire and hid from Him. He clarifies that the same voice that spoke on the mountain and through the fire is present in the Bible. We can bring that voice alive in our hearts by studying the Scriptures. He emphasizes that God is a consuming fire and that Jesus is the Word of God; when God speaks, things happen, just as He spoke creation into existence. He further explains that Jesus is the Word made flesh and was with God during the creation of the earth, as illustrated in Proverbs 8:22-31.
