Did you know you have a sound and that you hear sounds? The sound inside of you is either attracted to or repelled by the sounds around you. Not every group, not every church, not every person or group of people will have a sound that resonates with you. We say it is personality, but it is actually sound. This is not about tone, but about sound, the sound of people’s hearts is heard by us whether we recognize it or not. The more we know the sounds of God, the more we will recognize sounds that are contrary to God.

Hebrews 5:12-14 says, “For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.”

Religion has a sound, the world has a sound, the kingdom of God has a sound. They are not the same sound and whatever sound you are most familiar with will be the sound you resonate with and are attracted to. You will not resonate with every sound, that is why people struggle to worship, because they are not aquatinted with the sound of worship, real worship, not just singing songs. Unintentionally we repel against the sound of worship, because we are tuned to another sound. Some people are attuned to the sounds of the world, so they resonate with those sounds.

Genesis 3:8 says, “They heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.” We can hear the sound of God but move away from it, because we have been tuned to another sound. My friends, I see the tuning fork of God and the Lord is wanting to tune us to His sound, so we don’t push away the sound that can help us because we have become so familiar with an alternative sound. Let the Lord tune you to His sound again, you were made to resonate with His sound!
