Hearing the Voice of God

Hearing the Voice of God was the title of our first lecture week.  Sooo good. 

Some of my thoughts…

Quit asking God for what He has already given you.

Don’t put God in a box, He wont stay there.   

If you are a follower of Christ you have heard His voice. God doesn’t speak to everyone in the same ways. 

Philippians 2:13 

He is working in us to help us do the power of God, and when we agree he gives us the power to do it.

Lets not try to put a label on what “being filled with the Holy Spirit” looks like.

The Holy Spirit is a gentleman. He won’t take more then we allow him to have.

God does have concepts that our minds cannot grasp.

It’s ok to be greedy when receiving the knowledge of God and Holy Spirit, Because as you receive you give.

Be still and allow God to show you what He wants to speak to you and then write it out.

                  Be still

                  Fix our eyes on the Jesus vision

                  Recognize God voice as a spontaneous flow.

                  Write… Try, Test and Prove the experiences and promises that God has given you. Stop trying to figure it all out and except it. 

There are some stumbling blocks that need to be turned into stepping stones.

SEEK HIM FIRST.

Biblical mediation combine with Analytical thought equals the flow of the heart.

Gods words trump my logic.

Reason will try to talk you out of Revelation.  Mediation will release Revelation and study releases information.  WE NEED BOTH

HE to who we are directing our prayers is way bigger then anything and everything we are praying about.

TRUST THAT GOD FORGIVES US

Gods love is very personal.

He has a very distinct purpose in making me.

The balance of Gods love for us evens out what He had to go through on the Cross.

By Law you are GUILTY, by GRACE- HE paid it ALL.

Friendship doesn’t happen by chance…

Person + Time = closeness

Person + talk = trust

Person + feelings = relationship

…It’s impossible for large groups to have this type of close relationship.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace, as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Rom. 15:13

Praying with the Heart of God changes things.

My failure doesn’t change Gods creature.

Humility is measured by the life that expresses it.

This is just a little taste of what we have been learning this week.  I could go on and on for a few more pages, but the just of it is you have a question, ASK, then LISTEN, and WRITE it down. God does speak. And I am so glad He does!
