Spirits move voices, voices speak words, words produce thoughts, thoughts produce beliefs, beliefs produce your lifestyle, your conduct, your values and principles, and ultimately your eternal destiny. There are three types of spirits moving in this world - man's spirit, evil spirits, and the Holy Spirit Himself. Try the spirits whether they be of God, the Bible says. *I John 4:1* Behind every voice, there is a spirit moving that voice - take heed, discern the spirit, and be mindful of what voices and words you are listening and yielding to. Again, take heed which voices you are listening to, take heed what ye hear and receive into your mind and wind up following with your thoughts, words, actions and life. Be very careful about which Voice is directing your life. Ask God the Holy Spirit for His discernment. *I Corinthians 12:10*
Most of the time it is man's spirit just chattering about mindless nonsense such as himself, the weather, politics, religion or sports. But sometimes there is an evil spirit speaking through a human voice. *Mark 8:33* And very rarely, the Holy Spirit speaks through a human voice. *John 6:63* *I Corinthians 14:37* *II Peter 1:21*
Books are a collection of words that came from a spirit and a voice of some man or woman. Be careful about the words you read as well, because some writers and authors are very moving and could lead your mind and life astray into more darkness, away from God and His will and way. Songs' lyrics are words that came from different spirits: beware of listening and being persuaded by lyrics in songs in these evil days.
Jesus said, "My sheep hear my Voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. Please make sure you are following Jesus' Voice found in the Scriptures; the still, small Voice of the Holy Spirit - the Spirit of Christ. Every one that is of the Truth heareth His voice. *John 18:37* He that is of God heareth God words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. *John 8:47*
