Book excerpt: I have found no book that goes into detail on the subject of how God speaks to man. Maybe you have found one or two, I don't know; but, I do know as well as I hope you sure know that the field of spiritual knowledge is begging for the creation of a book that details what is required to be able to perceive clearly 'the voice of God' when it comes to us. I have been to places where the same aged question is raised (though asked in different ways) by sincere Christians, 'How does God speak?,' 'How can one hear the voice of God?' and so on.And, it always saddens my heart to discover that many men and women of God always shy away from this question. From our pulpits, they charge God's people, 'You must discover how God speaks to you' claiming that God speaks to us individually in different ways. A fellow who does not know how to find how God speaks, which he wants to know, is challenged to find out what he doesn't know how to find out. So, he is rather more confused.I believe many of God's people will gladly do the will of God most times, if only they know what the will of God is, and are sure they have perceived the will of God rightly. But, God is always speaking to His children, always. God is never silent when He ought to speak; and He ought to speak when He knows you care enough to know what He wants you to do in a situation. Hence, many times when people say God is silent, let me be bold to state that such times God has never stopped to speak. God has been speaking but because they couldn't hear, they concluded due to frustration that God is silent.'For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.' (Job 33:14)When man doesn't perceive what God is saying, he wonders, 'Does God ever speak?' And, one reason why many don't perceive the voice of God is because they have no confidence in the 'knowing of the heart' as much as they believe in 'hearing a voice' which they long to hear but have never heard. In Ending Your Day Right (April 17th, 2004), Joyce Meyer says, 'You can grow in your confidence level to the point where "knowing" is even better than "hearing". What I believe Joyce meant by "'knowing' is better than 'hearing'" is that those who try to 'hear a strange divine voice' must be introduced to 'the knowing of the heart' which they always have, but ignored.In this book therefore, I hope the Holy Spirit will open your understanding, and lead you to the knowing of God in your heart, which you perhaps have been ignoring. I will show you thirty different ways by which God communicates His divine will to us. This book which I have always longed to write since about a decade ago is now in your hand, to the glory of God. May it lead you to a deeper experience of God, just as I hope and pray.

Download or read book Blessed Broken Scared written by J Brian Pusateri and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-12-23 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blessed, Broken, and Scared. What does that mean? We know that Jesus took bread, blessed it, broke it, and shared it with His friends saying, "This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me." The Last Supper challenges us to live in such a way that we actually become the sacred food of Jesus Christ for others as we share our lives with them. And that can be scary! Blessed, Broken, and Scared calls the reader to a conversion from living a scared life to living a shared life. It is in sharing our life with others that we find the healing and peace we truly seek. All people are wounded by the world and have areas of hidden brokenness in their life. This book offers hope, healing, and change as it explores the profound implications of God's mercy, forgiveness, and love. "Brian addresses some very important issues in a conversational style that invites you into his book. Let this book, in a "sea of purple," be a place for us to share and be blessed. This book will truly encourage us to be Eucharist for one another." Fr. Martin Schratz OFM Cap. Brian has been sharing his Blessed, Broken, and Scared retreats around the country for years. Now the message has been captured in this book. Here is what some past retreatants have had to say: "Brian opens himself to all and helped us see that our brokenness isn't a deterrent to God's love and healing. Our retreat was truly a special day." "Should be required for today's Christians and Catholics." "One of the best day retreats that I have attended in nearly 40 years! So much to reflect on and put into action." "I have been to many seminars, webinars, retreats and have been blessed to have read many great books, but I have to say...this retreat impacted my life as to learning more about God's will in my life than any other book, resource, event ever has! Thanks be to God!" Brian Pusateri is a Christian author and speaker. Brian felt his life was forever changed when God spoke to his heart while attending a retreat in 2011. With the God-inspired message of mercy and unconditional love, Brian has been impacting others all over the country and around the world with his weekly letters, talks, and retreats. Brian and his wife of 45 years, Mary Beth, live in, and love the Carolina mountains.

Download or read book God Tells the Man Who Cares written by A. W. Tozer and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God has nothing to say to the frivolous man." — A. W. Tozer Tozer states this bluntly in the book's beginning, and he carries the sentiment through the last chapter. In God Tells the Man Who Cares, Tozer urges the believer to be vigilant in his pursuit of God's voice in his life. He reminds us that stillness and meditation on the Spirit of God may be more spiritually profitable than the front of religion that is so prevalent in modern society. Stillness is the quality that is so often lost in the business of today's world. To be still and know that He is God is an old truth that is much quoted but rarely lived. Tozer's convicting voice will bring you to a new and humbling place in your relationship with the Lord. He invites you to lay your emotions at God’s feet, provides insight into the true nature of a servant's heart, and decries many aspects of institutionalized Christianity, warning against artificial religion with these words: “[It] is a disease of the soul, and can only be healed by the Physician of souls."

Download or read book You ve Already Got It written by Andrew Wommack and published by Harrison House Publishers. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians believe God can do anything, but they don't understand the completion of His plan through Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection. It is in the discovery of what God has already done, that our walk with Him becomes a joy and an adventure Jesus' sacrifice on the cross was great. He exchanged His perfect life and all the power of heaven for our sins, our weaknesses. Through Him our eternal destiny is set. Yet in our day-to-day lives, It seems that we still deal with so many challenges - sickness, financial struggles, difficult relationships, our own shortcomings. Is it possible to walk in victory in this life? Andrew Wommack reveals powerful truths in this practical view of the work of Jesus Christ-truths that are life changing. Readers will learn how Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection not only paid for their eternal salvation, but gave them everything they need for abundant life right here, right now. Andrew encourages readers to avoid being like the dog constantly chasing his tail, not realizing he already has it. As readers begin to understand the extent of the work on the cross, their walk with God will be renewed and their life in Christ will become an adventure beyond anything they ever though possible Wommack approaches faith from a no-nonsense and unique perspective in that he challenges the reader to evaluate their idea of faith in God. Written along the same lines as Kenneth Hagin's How to Turn Your Faith Loose and Right and Wrong Thinking, Wommack goes a step further by revealing the erroneous teachings that encourage believers to beg for God's help. Instead he shows that Jesus already finished His work when He was resurrected and now it's the believer'sresponsibility and privilege to enforce that victory against the powers of darkness.
Download or read book 100 Ways God Speaks to You written by Robert A. Avila and published by Platinum Pearl Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-10 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “ ‘Call out,’ the voice asserted. This direction edged into my brain and flooded my mental realm…” God can speak to any of us, anytime—but how do we hear Him? Christian author, Robert Avila, didn’t always recognize God speaking to him, until he discovered a pattern. In a collection of short stories from his life, Avila shares specific moments he acted upon promptings from a still small voice—saw the outcome—and noticed God using him as a vehicle to carry out tiny—and sometimes enormous—miracles. But how did Robert know it wasn’t just his own thoughts? In this collection of interactions with God told in short-story form, he explains how God breaks the chains of religious indoctrination and sets us on the narrow path. He teaches us the techniques God uses to draw us nearer to Him and guide us toward our life’s purposes. Perhaps God is speaking to you, but you don’t recognize His voice. Just like there are hundreds of radio waves—some producing clear sounds, others inaudible—there are more than 100 ways God communicates. In this book, Robert Avila teaches you how to transform your faith—tune-in—and hear Him.

Download or read book When God Talks Back written by T.M. Luhrmann and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.

Download or read book God Conversations written by Tania Harris and published by Authentic. This book was released on 2017 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do I know it's God? is one of the most commonly asked questions of new and mature Christians alike, and the aim of God Conversations is to both equip and inspire the reader and show them that hearing the voice of the Spirit is accessible to everyone who chooses to follow Jesus. Most Christians know that God speaks, yet struggle with how to recognise his voice in their everyday lives. What does God's voice sound like? How do we know if what we're hearing is from God? Stories of God talking to his people abound throughout the Bible, but we usually only get the highlights. We read; "And God said to Joseph; 'Go to Egypt'," and then; "Mary and Joseph left for Egypt." We don't get a blow-by-blow description of how God spoke. We don't receive a detailed explanation of how they knew it was God, and we don't get to see what was going on inside their heads as they acted on what they'd heard. In God Conversations, international speaker and pastor Tania Harris shares insights from her own journey about hearing God's voice. You'll get to eavesdrop on some contemporary conversations with God in the light of his communication with the ancient characters of the Bible. Part memoir, part teaching, this unique and creative collection of stories will help you to recognise God's voice when he speaks and how to respond when you do.
