Last week I answered the question, "How Do I Become a Strong Christian?" So this week, I am answering the second question that was asked, "How Do I Hear from God?"
As I shared last week, the number one was that we hear from God is through His Word. This is why I so encourage you to make sure you are getting into the Bible every single day!
John 10:27 tells us that when we make it a habit to get into the Bible, we will know what God's voice sounds like and we won't be led astray by the enemy.
Another way that we hear God speak to us is through our hearts. This is not as common as when He speaks to us through His Word, however, this is how God spoke to me when I knew without a shadow of a doubt that God called me to serve teens.
A third way that God can speak to us is through other people...maybe your pastor or your youth pastor...or even through this podcast, God might be speaking directly to you. Maybe you've been talking to God about something and you get your answer through one of us or someone else. God is so good!
Now, I do highly caution you about people who call themselves prophets or say to you, "God told me (fill in the blank). A lot of these people aren't hearing from God. Now, some are legitimate and God really did share with them to share something with you, but most are not. So, if someone says that to you or your watching a video that says something like that, ask yourself these two questions:
God will never guide you outside of the Bible.
Another way God speaks to us is through peace. If you have given your life to Jesus and you have gone all in with God, He has given you the Holy Spirit that lives on the inside of you.
John 16:13 and this is Jesus speaking, He said, “When the Spirit of Truth comes (that’s the Holy Spirit), He will guide you into all Truth, for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears from God, He will speak, and He will declare to you the things that are to come.
