Hearing His Voice Is Essential

How do we hear Him in our mind, will and emotions, even by our physical senses? It isn’t all that complicated; in fact, it’s simple! Not easy, because there are enemies that don’t want us to hear from God, but it is simple. Here’s a great way to start:

1.    Recognize that we can’t hear from God without His help. We’ve seen how He has already removed all obstacles, but He also does the enabling in us, providing the teaching, opportunity, encouragement and confirmation we need.

2.    Commit to waiting on Him, for Him and with Him. The goal of hearing is to KNOW God, not just to hear Him more clearly. 

3.    Develop your soulical senses. Once we experience salvation, we become a new creature, a new being that has never lived this life before. Part of that new life is that we are learning how to live using new spiritual senses, which in turn activate, or give true life to, both supernatural and natural senses. 

4.    Rest: Be patient, confident and dependent. Your success in this is not judged by how well you think you are doing, how clearly you think you are hearing from Him or anything else for that matter.

5.    ASK! God will give you a hunger that will not be satisfied with anything less than His best. God desires to reveal Himself and His truth. He gives us a hunger by giving us a personal encounter, rather than inspiring or motivating through providing a goal or presenting a need. 

6.    Be Bold! Any interest you feel at any time in knowing God IS FROM HIM!
