Imagine sitting down to catch up with a friend. They unload all the details of all their highs and lows but just as you open your mouth to speak; they up and leave.

In true friendship, that just doesn’t happen. And yet, how often do you do that with God?

When you pray, you are trusting that God is hearing your words. You share all the details of your highs and lows, believing that God is listening.

But, when it‘s your turn, do you get up and leave before giving God the chance to respond?

Prayer is a two-way conversation- a Holy Dialogue. God wants to speak to you. And we don’t want you to miss out.

For now, open your ears and your heart as Josh and Kit sift through some of the barriers to good listening.

Stepping beyond your monologue and into a Holy Dialogue is the next step to “Becoming Whole.”

Highlights:

As we cultivate this aspect of listening in our prayer life that there’s something healing in just that

That’s what I’m made for, that’s what everybody’s made for, to have that communication, relationship with God.

It can really be helpful to seek to hear God with somebody else who’s got a little more experience in discerning God’s voice

Questions:

To hear from God, we need to be able to recognize His voice. Spend time reading the Bible each day to learn what He sounds like.

If you feel like God is speaking to you; ask yourself: Is it consistent with Scripture? Is the tone loving, encouraging?

Hearing from God is sometimes best done with a small group of people. Can you find 2 or more trusted friends to listen with?

After submitting your requests to God; jot down any songs or verses, specific words, or images that may come to mind.
