79 ~ How To Know The Still Small Voice of God ~ Part 2


Listen Later

Last week we asked the question; does God really speak to us today? And if He does, how do we know it’s Him?

We began to look at some of the differing characteristics between God, us, and the enemy that can help us in determining where our thoughts are coming from. If we are truly hearing from God, being led astray by the enemy or seeking to fill our own sinful desires.

We're continuing in this topic today. So if you are searching for what the next right step is? If you have thoughts and question if it’s God who is leading you? Then join me today as we discover how to know the still small voice of God.

 

Let’s get started!

 

Episode Highlights:

  • Recap of last week's episode on discerning God’s voice.
  • Characteristics to distinguish between God's voice and the enemy’s.
  • Practical steps to handle negative and confusing thoughts.
  • Introduction of the "Taking My Thoughts Captive" journal.
  •  

    This episode explores additional characteristics to help discern God's voice:

    • Christ Confirms, Satan Contradicts: Thoughts from God will never contradict Scripture.
  • Christ Chooses, Satan Captures: God adopts us in love, while Satan seeks to ensnare us.
  • Christ Constrains, Satan Constricts: God calls us to self-control and righteousness, while Satan tries to make us feel trapped and hopeless.
  • Christ Clearly Speaks Truth, Satan Convinces with Many Words: God’s messages are clear and concise, unlike the enemy’s repetitive and confusing tactics.
  •
