How to hear from God

Have you ever felt lost at some point in life, and desperate to hear God’s voice for direction? Perhaps you wished God could give you a clear sign for an important decision. Do you wonder why some people seem to hear from him easily, but when it comes to you, God is always silent?

Many believers feel stuck in their attempt to hear from God. Not because God is not speaking or willing to speak, but Because they do not recognize the ways God speaks.

Understanding How God speaks to Us

The biggest reason many believers miss God’s voice is that they expect him to speak in a certain way; like a human sounding voice, Spectacular signs, Clear vision, or Dream. Although, God speaks through all these means (Matthew 3:17 ‘and lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.’), But we need to understand he’s a sovereign God and he chooses the way he speaks at any given point. It is our responsibility to be sensitive in the spirit to hear him when he speaks. The “Voice” of God should not be confused with just a physical sound. It encompasses all the way God communicates with us. God is a spirit and he communicates with us primarily through our spirit man (Our heart). not our physical ear. The “voice of God” is a holistic term that represents all the spiritual channels God uses to share His will and intent with you
