7 "voices" that influence our choices

1. Our voice — our wants, desires (some derived from the flesh, others by the Spirit)

2. Our counselors voices — friends, family, spiritual leaders, etc.

3. The voice of our circumstances — where do we find ourselves? What has God sovereignly caused or allowed in my life?

4. God's voice — His Holy Spirit; God' s still, small voice; the booming, even frightening voice of of God; dreams; visions, etc.

5. Angle's voices — God still speaks today, though rarely, through angels.

6. The voice of Satan or his demons — spinning out lies, deceptions, half-truths, threats, etc.

7. The voice of Scripture — God still speaks fresh into our lives today through His word.

Can you think of others?
