Did God Really Say?: A Practical and Encouraging Guide to Hearing from God

How do I know that God is speaking? How can I be sure that it is God speaking and not my thoughts? How can I get the clarity and direction I need from God? There is something that happens to your spirit when you know that you know that you have heard from God. It galvanizes you to take action, to walk on water with Him (Matthew 14:22-33), to leap over walls and to capture cities for His sake. Yet a significant number of us don’t live in this reality for the simple reason that we are not sure that God speaks to us. We know He speaks to pastors and ministers of the gospel but we are not sure that He can or will speak to us ‘ordinary’ members of the body of Christ. In addition, if indeed He does speak to us, how can we be sure that it is God that is speaking and not our imagination, or the devil? How can we clearly HEAR and KNOW that God is speaking? This book seeks to provide a practical and encouraging guide to hearing from God, iit seeks to point you in the right direction- towards The Father. It is my desire that as you read these chapters and ponder on the action points that follow; you will find that a deeper relationship with God opens up to you. I pray that you will have the patience and diligence to sit with God; the openness of heart to hear from Him and the courage to trust and obey His every word.
