Welcome to the journey of learning to hear the voice of God more clearly. If the Lord is asking you to do something, He will make it clear. The prophet Jeremiah received a message from the Lord to buy a field. His cousin came to visit him in prison and told him the land was [...]

It was Dietrich Bonhoeffer who said, “The blessedness of waiting is lost on those who cannot wait, and the fulfillment of promise is never theirs. They want quick answers to the deepest questions of life and miss the value of those times of anxious waiting, seeking with patient uncertainties until the answers come. They lose [...]

I felt impressed by the Lord that He has a message of hope for every follower of Jesus as we leave 2021 and enter 2022. This message is found in John 20:21 & 20:22. “So Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.’ And when He had said [...]

So many are facing difficulties and loss during this Christmas season. As we celebrate the birth of our Lord this week, let’s receive His gift of peace. “The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus (Phil. 4:7).” And we are promised that “the God of peace [...]

Sometimes we can be so sure that something is God’s will for us, but God does not open the door because it is not the right timing. If you are experiencing this, it may be best to let the desire die. If it is really from God, He will resurrect it (bring it back to [...]

Because visions and revelation can sometimes be symbolic and thus misinterpreted, many in Western Christianity do not take visions and supernatural revelation seriously. Others look for God in the wrong places without discernment and get [...]

We certainly need to discern the Lord’s voice carefully these days, but let’s not over-spiritualize hearing from God. If God has something to say to us, He knows how to get His point across. It is our responsibility to listen with expectancy and test what we hear (I Thess. 5:20-21). I have also found that [...]

I am so glad the Holy Spirit reveals to us small changes we need to make that we can handle. If He revealed everything that’s wrong with us at once, we would be crushed, overwhelmed and perhaps give up. We learn through maturing in Christ that if we trust and obey the Lord when He [...]

I have learned over many years that God desires to communicate with us. Sometimes we hear a voice within, but excuse it as our own thought. It may be God! Take that inner voice seriously. These divine “nudges” are one way He sends us His messages. God gives these impulses to guide and encourage us [...]

Have you ever wondered why Christians sometimes fall into deception and make shocking decisions? I am convinced that it’s directly related to the twelve subtle, progressive steps the devil leads us through to destroy us. It does not happen overnight, but through small steps, not unlike the proverbial frog in the kettle of water that [...]
