Prepare Your Heart To Talk To God

by Robert Pedersen

 

Here’s another belief that’ll severely limit communication with God.

“I don’t know how to communicate with God.”

You may feel that you simply don’t know anything about communicating with God.

You are not alone in that feeling.

Actually, you are in the best place to learn if you feel you don’t know.

Scripture tells us about many people that didn’t know.

Moses felt totally inadequate and he became a great leader of God’s people.

Jesus disciples indicated their lack of knowledge and asked the Christ for help.

“Lord teach us how to pray” was one of their requests.

If you don’t know you’re in good company.

Along with that feeling you may believe that it’s impossible to know.  This is where it is easy to become stuck.

Perhaps you’ve been taught how to talk to God.  Maybe you’ve attended various churches, learned different doctrines and through it all simply felt confused.

Again you’re not alone.

Sorting through the mounds of spiritual and religious information out there is daunting and confusing.

Fortunately you don’t have to!

When you are in the state of not knowing asking is the answer.

Christ gives us an amazing promise in scripture.

 Ask and it will be given to you;  seek and you will find;
knock and the door will be opened.
Matt 7:7 (NIV)

What is this promise worth?

Going back to the first lesson you received – According to your faith be it unto you.

The promise isn’t worth anything if you can’t accept it.

If you can accept the promise it’s everything you allow it to be.

Scripture reference:

Psalms 46:10
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the
nations, I will be exalted in the earth.  (NIV)

This verse is the inspiration for BeStillKnowGod.com.

Stillness is essential to finding God, communicating with God, knowing God – anything to do with God.

Stillness is quieting our own mind, intellect, thinking, fears, doubts and just being in the place where God can communicate with you!

This is why you don’t have to search and search for God.  This is why you are not required to sort through every book that has ever been written about God.  This is why you don’t need anyone to tell you about God.

You have all that is required to communicate with God and to know God right now!
