=== Know His Voice (02:19) ===

[00:00:01]  What would you tell the people today to be ready for these things, for martial law, for whatever happens, the earthquakes on the West Coast?
[00:00:10]  Could you give me just a couple things from your years of wisdom?
[00:00:15]  We must know his voice.
[00:00:16]  Yes.
[00:00:17]  You know, his sheep know his voice, and they follow him because they know his voice.
[00:00:22]  John 10.
[00:00:24]  But, you know, I think I've been saying this for decades, but you know, harping on something, angels harp.
[00:00:33]  So it's important that we do that sometimes.
[00:00:36]  We've got to know his voice for ourselves.
[00:00:39]  And, you know, now we're paying a high price.
[00:00:43]  Most people, we won't know until eternity just how much harder our lives were because we didn't know his voice and didn't follow his voice.
[00:00:52]  We made wrong turns, bad decisions, little things.
[00:00:56]  But as we get closer and closer to the end, it's going to be life and death that we hear from him.
[00:01:01]  Don't go down this road.
[00:01:03]  Go down this one.
[00:01:04]  And we experienced that in a major way in a lot of the disasters in Haiti.
[00:01:11]  If you went down a road, you were going to die.
[00:01:13]  I'm talking after the Haiti earthquake.
[00:01:15]  You make a wrong turn down the wrong road, you will die.
[00:01:19]  And because of the gangs and everything, it's something we must know his voice.
[00:01:24]  I can't emphasize that enough.
[00:01:26]  But the only way you get to know the voice of someone, you've got to be with them.
[00:01:31]  I can describe my wife's voice to you technically.
[00:01:37]  And you may know all the technical details of her voice, decimal, everything, but you couldn't distinguish her voice from anybody else's if you heard it.
[00:01:47]  That's right.
[00:01:47]  They were close.
[00:01:48]  But I know it.
[00:01:49]  If she was in this room anywhere, I would instantly know she's right over there because we've been together so much.
[00:01:56]  And I don't think there are any technical formulas for knowing the voice of the Lord.
[00:02:00]  You've just got to be with him.
[00:02:02]  You've got to have that relationship.
[00:02:04]  You've got to be getting closer and closer to him.
[00:02:07]  There is no other way.
[00:02:08]  So he is the answer to every human problem.
[00:02:12]  Being in his will, being with him, is the safest place we can ever be.
[00:02:17]  And if it's our time, let's go home.
[00:02:19]  Let's be happy.
[00:02:20]  Right.
[00:02:20]  Yeah.
