Key takeaways

• You don't have to feel God's presence to obey his last instruction — fill your horn with oil and move forward before you have all the details.
• Some confusion about hearing God comes from comparing yourself to others and chasing destinations God never set for your life.
• Knowing God's Word is knowing God's voice — when you internalize his values, you can discern what is and isn't from him.
• God measures faithfulness not by never getting it wrong but by your willingness to be corrected and keep moving.
• It's hard to hear God speak about your future when you're still mourning a past he has already moved on from.
