You can use the receiver node to listen to messages you will need to go to the Bot father and edit privacy settings for your bot

> Enable' - your bot will only receive messages that either start with the '/' symbol or mention the bot by username.  
> 'Disable' - your bot will receive all messages that people send to groups.  
> Current status is: DISABLED

Your bot would need to be in the group to get messages.
