Three Ways To Hear God More Clearly
Sometimes, we find ourselves having to make a decision about something but are unsure what to do. We ask God for direction, but we feel he has gone silent. This can be frustrating and make us feel alone in our decisions. I’ve been there. But I’ve found some things that help me hear God’s voice more clearly and discern what he is telling me to do. I am sharing those here today; I hope this helps.
Read The Bible
One of the best ways to hear from God is to read your Bible. God speaks to and guides us through his word. Reading the Bible shows us God’s character and how he’s worked in the lives of other believers before us.
The Bible shows us how God has directed others in the past, and it helps us recognize whether what we are considering is something God would approve of or direct someone to do. Stories in the Bible help build our faith and remind us that if God came through for people in the Bible, he would come through for us, too.
Pray Often
Whatever situation you may be facing and need help getting through, ask God for help through prayer; he is willing and able to help. After you pray, pause, listen, and discern his voice. Some people experience his voice and response when being still and quiet, but I sometimes receive the best revelation and answers when I walk, exercise, or shower.
Tune Out Other Voices
The amount of information we have access to can be overwhelming. It can paralyze us when it comes to decision-making, cause us to overthink, and make us anxious. Sometimes, you have to tune out all the other voices, including the media and social media, and tune into the voice of God. You can do this by praying, reading your Bible, and listening to worship music. God will guide you.
I hope you found this helpful. I also hope that these things will help you hear God's voice more clearly and discern what he’s telling you to do the next time you have to make a decision and are not quite sure what to do.
