Hearing God’s Voice

Communicating With God

Let's go back in time a couple thousand years to the time of Christ.

Jesus and his disciples had just spent the day with a group of 5000 people. Jesus had performed a miracle by feeding the multitude with 5 loaves of bread and a few fish and now it was getting late in the day. Scripture tells us that afterward Jesus sent the disciples and the multitude away.

What did Jesus do then? He found a way to become still to communicate with God.

Matt 14:23

And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. (KJV)

A similar scripture in Luke:

Luke 6:12

And it came to pass in those days, that he (Jesus) went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God. (KJV)

Communicating with God was a very essential activity for the Christ. In The Bible there are numerous verses that indicate that Jesus often separated himself from his followers, from the hustle and bustle of daily living and found a place of solitude and quietness to communicate with God.

Be Still and Know That I Am God…

Jesus perhaps knew better than anyone the importance of that scripture in the Psalms:

Psalms 46:10

Be still, and know that I am God . . . (KJV)

We live in a very noisy world. I would say a much more noisy world than Jesus experienced in his day. If he sought out stillness in a world without TV, radio, newspapers, email, cell phones, ipods, etc. how much more effort must it require today to find the stillness and quietness to “Be still and know that I am God”?

I submit that communicating with God isn’t so difficult as truly becoming still to hear God’s voice. Therefore we must first learn to be still. To be still opens up amazing opportunities to know God. Learning to be still however requires some dedication and commitment.

Are You Bringing God A List?

Often our efforts to communicate with God are comparable to giving God a list and expecting immediate delivery. We feel pressured to do so much that we have little time to actually be still and listen.

Listening is really the greater part of communication. Listening can only be done in stillness – when we still our own minds and thinking and just wait.

Psalms 27:14

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. (KJV)

Try This NOW!

Fortunately learning to be still is something anyone can do. You can start right now!

Be Still Now!

Find yourself a quiet place where you will not be interrupted. Sit and allow your mind to settle without influence. Relax your body. Notice what your mind does. Don’t try to control it or judge the thoughts that come. As you just simply observe the activities of your mind with gentle acceptance eventually it will slow down and stop the frantic jumping from thought to thought. Be patient – this may take several sessions. Take your time – you can’t mess up.

Eventually you will find it much easier to become still – with your mind just being – not running here and there frantically trying to provide something for you to think about!

In that space you can wait on God and begin communicating with God.

While you’re practicing stillness with the intent to communicate with God, the preparation of the heart becomes of utmost importance. It is in the heart where you hold beliefs and ideas about God that may actually be sabotaging your efforts to talk to God.

A Few More Details . . .

If you’re still with me, I’d like to tell you a little more about my site.

While communication with God and hearing God’s voice is the main focus of this site, I realize that there are many other topics relative to relationship with God that are very important.

Within these pages you’ll find information on many topics such as Grace, Salvation, The Bible, Adam and Eve and the creation story, etc.

All these other topics and issues can be understood best when we experience true two-way communication with God – until then they often seem a bit mysterious. Therefore helping you to hear God speak to you is the primary focus. The additional topics are bonuses that you may find helpful – or not. Either way, let’s keep our eyes on the goal of communicating with God and enjoy the journey!
