Do you long to hear God speaking to you? Do you think that’s impossible in your busy schedule?
I’ve learned to recognize when God is speaking to me. I hear God most often when I am quiet and still. It’s difficult to find that space in our fast-paced lives, but when you hear God whisper sweet truth to you, I promise it’s worth the effort.
God’s voice is quiet, gentle and encouraging. He will speak peace into your soul, if you know how to listen.
I’m writing about how to hear God’s gentle whisper at W2W Ministries today. Here’s a peek at my post, and I hope you’ll head over to read the rest.
Hear God’s Gentle Whisper
Several years ago, I encountered the Christian classic Ordering Your Private World. This book is one of the most transformative Christian self-help books I’ve ever encountered. It’s now available in an updated version, which is crucial for our current times.
Author Gordon MacDonald eloquently speaks about the importance of crafting a quiet routine for spiritual development. In our fast-paced times, this is such a counter-cultural message that many will speed right past it. Yet it is one of the most vital messages we can receive today.
The reason for its importance? Because God speaks in a still, small voice to us most often.
God gives us individualized messages for our hearts during quiet times in His Word.
He also speaks to us in those quiet times when everything else lulls—such as right before bed, when we awake due to insomnia, and even during our immersive chores.
If we choose to listen, we will hear him speak love, peace, joy, and comfort to our hearts, as well as gentle correction. We cannot be truly close to God without cultivating quiet times in our schedules.
This passage in 1 Kings is a powerful example of how God speaks…
