Hindrances to Hearing God

A hindrance is something that will prevent or stop us from hearing what God is saying. Since we are created to hear and follow God, it is extremely important to take every hindrance as a serious threat to our growth and overall well-being. In fact, when we are hindered from hearing God, we are also hindered from obeying God. Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (Jn 10:27). For Christians, obedience should be the natural outflow of hearing, which is why we must not be hindered as we seek to hear God.
