Recognize My Voice
Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him,
went out and asked them, “Who is it you want?”
“Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “I am he,” Jesus said.
(And Judas the traitor was standing there with them.)
When Jesus said, “I am he,”
they drew back and fell to the ground.
Again he asked them, “Who is it you want?”
“Jesus of Nazareth,” they said.
Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he.
If you are looking for me, then let these men go.”
This happened so that the words he had spoken would
be fulfilled: “I have not lost one of those you gave me.”
John 18:4-9 (NIV)
Are you listening for me? It is important
for you to recognize my voice of direction.
Know the call I have placed on your life.
Don't compare yourself with others. But
be washed and made whole in me.
