Do you ever struggle to hear God's voice when you pray or read the Bible? If you do, you're not alone. But a long time ago, some followers of Jesus came up with a way of spending time with God that helps us listen for God's voice. It's called Lectio Divina, and it's all about hearing God speak through Scripture. Here's how it works...

1. GET QUIET

Get rid of any distractions so you can focus. Ask God to speak to you through the words you're about to read in the Bible.

2. READ

Read today's passage of Scripture. Read the passage—slowly! Listen for any words or ideas that stand out to you. When something does stand out, write it down.

3. RE-READ

Read the passage again. This time, spend extra time focusing on the words that stood out to you during your first read-through. Let God's words really sink in. Then, write what you're thinking or feeling.

4. LISTEN

Read the passage one more time. This time, listen for what God might be inviting you to do. Write it down.

5. PRAY

Spend a few minutes talking with God about what you just read and were invited to you. Here are some prayers to get you started.

  • God, help me understand your words.
  • What do you want me to know?
  • What are you inviting me to do?
  • What do you see that I don't?

Write down anything you say to God and anything you notice God saying in return.

6. REFLECT

What happened during your time with God today?

  • What did you hear God say?
  • How does it change how you approach God to know that God removes our sins as far as the East is from the West?
  • What will you do in response to what God has said?

God's story is not a story meant to be put away on a shelf somewhere, but it's one we're meant to explore and experience because we're deeply connected to it. In this 4-week devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll take a look at the story of God and see how we can make a difference in our communities because we know there's more to the story.
