Leviticus 8:35 Basically this verse says that Aaron and his sons had to stay at the entrance to the tabernacle for 7 days and do whatever God told them to do. If they didn’t they would die. That’s pretty serious… I suppose though, that they were to be the spiritual leaders of Israel so it was imperative that they be able to recognize God’s voice when He spoke to them. So, if they failed the test during their initiation into the priesthood, they died. At least, that’s how it seems to me. I don’t think I’d pass that test! So often I feel like I have no idea if I’m hearing God or if I’m hearing something else – like my desires or thoughts. I know people say that if I spend time in God’s Word I’ll learn to hear His voice… but I’m still pretty clueless. I guess I have some idea of some things that I get while reading, but are there people who audibly hear His voice? That I’d like to know. I think it would be amazing to hear His voice… but maybe that would be too much. Did He speak more clearly to people back then?
