  Hearing the Voice of God: Faith, Humility, and How You Hear (Parable of the Sower)

  Sep 18, 202630 min

  Pastor Dustin and Elder Mike Merritt continue their Out of the Box Church discussion on hearing the voice of God, emphasizing that God communicates in various ways such as an inward witness, not only audible words. Using the parable of the sower and Jesus’ follow-up teachings in Mark 4 and Luke 8, they connect the seed and the candle as both meant to reveal, encouraging listeners to approach God in faith with the expectation that what seems hidden will be revealed. They stress “take heed what you hear” and “how you hear,” warning that believers can become dull of hearing (Hebrews 5) through distraction, pride, persecution, or other pressures. They underline that hearing requires humility and obedience—receiving the Word with meekness, being doers not hearers only (James 1), and treasuring God’s wisdom like hidden riches (Proverbs 1–4). 00:00 Welcome and Focus 01:00 What Gods Voice Means 02:28 Parable of Sower Setup 04:05 Seed and Candle Link 05:52 Hearing Requires Faith 08:07 Seeking Revelation Intentionally 10:16 Three Part Being Spiritual Ears 12:08 Ears That Hear More Given 14:24 Warning Against Dull Hearing 15:45 Pride Dulls Hearing 16:16 Persecution Pressure 17:46 Hear And Do 18:44 All Scripture Applies 19:48 Meekness Plants Word 24:02 Word Reads You 24:54 Knowing God Changes Hearing 27:24 Proverbs Seek Wisdom 29:06 Make Word Priority 29:39 Final Encouragement And Thanks

  Hearing God’s Voice Through Relationship, Not Performance (Podcast Special Edition)

  Sep 11, 202621 min

  Pastor Dustin continues Out of the Box Church’s final message on hearing the voice of God, emphasizing that religion tries to earn what relationship receives. Using Galatians 2:19–20 and John 15:4–5, he teaches that fruit, clarity, and guidance come from abiding in Christ rather than striving through works-based performance. He highlights Old Testament examples—Samuel learning to recognize God’s voice through knowing the Lord, Moses choosing God’s presence over promises, David seeking God’s face, Enoch walking with God, and Mary choosing Jesus’ word over Martha’s busy service. Under the New Covenant, the Holy Spirit lives in believers to guide them (John 16:13; Romans 8), so the goal is pursuing God Himself, not chasing a formula, because clarity comes from closeness. 00:00 Podcast Intro and Setup 00:37 Grace Over Performance 02:50 Relationship Means Hearing 04:23 Abide and Stay Connected 06:19 Samuel Learns God’s Voice 07:30 Moses Seeks God’s Presence 08:37 David and Enoch Walk With God 10:59 Mary and Martha Priorities 12:18 Holy Spirit Within Us 14:27 Series Recap and Pursue God 17:34 Declarations and Closing Prayer 18:21 Final Encouragement and Outro 19:04 Rate Share and Visit Church

  OOTB Podcast - Having Ears to Hear: Valuing God’s Word, the Parable of the Sower, and Growing in Rev

  Sep 4, 202634 min

  Pastor Dustin welcomes back Bible teacher and elder Mike Merritt for a second discussion focused on deepening Bible-study wisdom from Proverbs and the parable of the sower, emphasizing the need to value God’s Word as seed that produces results. They explain why this parable appears in three Gospels and is a key to understanding all parables, highlighting how hearing involves more than natural ears—believers must also hear with the heart. Using the candle imagery in Mark and Luke, they connect revelation to growth, stressing that God is not hiding truth but reveals it in process and through faith. They cite Proverbs 20:27 and Ephesians 1’s prayer for wisdom and revelation, and unpack Proverbs 2:1–6 and Proverbs 1:7 to show that treasuring God’s commands, seeking wisdom, and a proper fear of the Lord enhance hearing and fruitfulness. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 01:18 Why the Sower Matters 03:11 Valuing the Word 05:04 Words as Seeds 05:42 Thorny Ground Explained 07:14 Two Sets of Ears 10:06 Gods Hearing Aid 11:30 Seed and Candle Link 15:36 God Reveals Not Hides 16:29 Spirit as Candle 16:55 Spirit As Gods Lamp 18:28 Hidden For Revelation 21:28 Seed And Church Growth 22:33 Praying For Wisdom 24:36 Proverbs Seek Wisdom 29:16 Fear Of The Lord 30:56 Parable Of The Soils 32:57 Dont Cherry Pick 33:46 Final Encouragement

  OOTB Podcast - Hindrances to Hearing the Voice of God

  Aug 28, 202634 min

  Is God speaking—or are there things in our lives keeping us from hearing Him? In this episode of the Out of the Box Church Podcast, Pastor Dustin is joined by OOTB Church elder and Bible teacher Mike Merritt for a powerful conversation about hindrances to hearing the voice of God. Using Jesus’ Parable of the Sower in Mark 4, we look at the different conditions of the heart and why the same Word of God can produce tremendous fruit in one person's life while seemingly producing very little in another. The problem isn't the seed. The seed is the Word of God. The issue is the condition of the soil receiving it. In this episode, we discuss: • How offense, unforgiveness, rebellion, disobedience, and pride can harden our hearts • Why thinking “I already know that” can keep us from receiving fresh revelation • The difference between simply having biblical information and receiving revelation from God's Word • Why shallow spiritual roots make us vulnerable when persecution and pressure come • The importance of being planted in the Word and connected to other believers • How worry, anxiety, busyness, distractions, riches, and the desires for other things can choke the Word • Why we must intentionally attend to God's Word and incline our ears to His sayings God is speaking. If we're struggling to hear Him, the problem isn't on the transmission end—we need to examine what's happening on the receiving end. “My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings.” — Proverbs 4:20 Take some time to examine the condition of your heart. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal anything that has become hard, shallow, crowded, or distracted—and make room for the Word of God to take root and produce fruit in your life. And be sure to join us for the next episode as we continue this conversation with “Ears to Hear.”

  How to Hear the Voice of God Clearly | God Speaks Through His Word, Peace & the Inner Witness

  Aug 21, 202624 min

  Pastor Dustin continues Out of the Box Church’s series on hearing the voice of God, explaining that believers are expected to hear God’s voice (John 10:27) and that God primarily guides through the human spirit, not emotions, logic, or circumstances (Proverbs 20:27). He teaches that God speaks first through Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16), which brings revelation and helps discern between soul and spirit (Hebrews 4:12). He outlines additional ways God leads: the inner witness (Romans 8:16), peace that “rules” like an umpire (Colossians 3:15), and conviction that restores rather than condemnation that shames (Romans 8:1). God’s voice aligns with His Word and nature (Galatians 5:22–23), and discernment grows with practice. He closes with prayer for wisdom, revelation, and clearer hearing, and invites listeners to church services. 00:00 Welcome and Series Intro 01:10 Spirit as God’s Lamp 02:08 Hearing God in Scripture 04:57 Inner Witness and Three-Part Being 07:15 Becoming Spirit Conscious 10:21 Renewing the Mind 11:48 Promptings and Inner Checks 14:41 Peace as Your Umpire 16:51 Conviction Not Condemnation 19:30 God’s Nature and Discernment 21:55 Final Encouragement and Prayer 23:22 Blessing and Service Info
