In this episode of Made for Impact, Petia Kolibova dives into one of the most common questions believers face: How can I tell if it’s God speaking—or just my own thoughts?



Through honest reflection and personal stories, Petia shares how to recognize the peace, clarity, and alignment that come from the Holy Spirit—and how to spot the difference between divine guidance and mental noise.



You’ll walk away with simple, practical ways to deepen your discernment, build confidence in your spiritual decisions, and tune your heart to God’s gentle whispers.



If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re really hearing from God or just overthinking, this episode will bring peace, perspective, and renewed trust in His voice.

 

 

💡 Key Takeaways
