Discerning The Voice Of God Step By Step

By Monique Potts


A lot of Christians would feel that God is so far out of their reach simply because they do not hear his voice every time they would pray to him. The real score behind that is actually many people do not know how to spot the messages that God is trying to send them. If one would want to know how to interpret the messages of the Lord, then here are some tips on discerning the voice of God.

Now before one would even try to solve the issue or dilemma at hand, he first has to pray for guidance from the Lord. God will only help those who are willing to ask him for help. So in order for one to be able to create a decision or come up with a solution, one has to first tell the Lord what his problem is and ask what can be done.

Of course after having a conversation with the Lord, the next thing to do would be to go through the writings that he left to the people. These writings are found in the most holy book called the Holy Bible. Everything that the Lord would want to impart to the people are found in that book and the voice of the Lord can actually be found in the texts of this ancient scripture.

If one is making a life changing decision and would want advice from God, the best place to look would be the Bible. The Bible has a lot of verses that would actually give practical advice to people regarding their decisions that they would make in life. One would just have to look for those verses.

Often times God would make use of other people to help one be able to know what to do in his life. Of course the closest people to talk to would actually be family and friends. So actually, one would be able to find the voice of God through the voices of the people that are actually close to him.

As stated above, God would often make use of people to help. Now it is also best to get outside opinions before making decisions that will last for a life time. One place where Christians can get good advice would actually be from the Church. These are the people who are devoted to God and will definitely be able to give advice that are based on the word of the Lord.

Now one will realize eventually that when he has already talked to other people about his problem, the Scriptures will have more sense. By now, he will already be able to better relate to the Scriptures that he is reading. If he has experienced this, then it means that he was able to hear the voice of the Holy Ghost.

Now one has to always remember that he will never receive a direct answer from God. He will always just use earthly entities to be able to help those who are in need. These entities could come in the form of other people or in the form of verses or doctrines from the Bible.
