If we truly understand that God is love, and only God is good, then the obvious thing we need to do is seek Him for our instructions! Learning on our understanding, even our understanding of love is not love. How do we know what the best and most loving thing to do is?? We don't but He does! I...

I like the above post because it is important to test the spirits! Still, if we are indeed Christians - we should know that His sheep hear His voice, so we do have a "direct line to God"! We just need to make sure it is our Lord Jesus Christ. Jn 10:4 “When he puts forth all his own, he goes...

Rev 3:1-,20 ‘Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. ‘Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. The above is the "Gospel" (Good News) in a nut shell...

I took just the first part of the post, because there are things that I see get missed at times. First - it is very important to understand that indeed - GOD IS LOVE!!! That is the first thing that sooooo often gets missed!! Even as some people say it they also miss it!! If God is indeed love...

YES! The Lord gets on to me often about using my spiritual eyes more, but for me it gets weird. And it is not just seeing and hear, though they are the major senses we operate with. God made the heavens and the earth - so just like we have five physical senses we have five spiritual senses...

It is really hard for people to accept reproof! I know that is true with me. Yet is that old friend really your enemy? We don't battle with flesh and blood, but rather those dark spiritual forces. I know it is harder to tell people about Jesus Christ when they think they have it all figured...

Practice using our spiritual senses like hearing is important, and anyone actually seeking the Lord Jesus Christ regularly does that. It is written, "Today if you hear His voice", and so today all believers should hear from their Lord. So it is that we learn things just from regularly seeking to...

Actually it is good to check things according to the Scriptures!! Checking them against the Scriptures implies that a person is to lean on their own understanding - yet the Scriptures explain tests to use and advice like taking all thoughts captive to Jesus Christ. Sadly, too often people...

When a prophet speaketh The above verse very specifically applies to "a prophet"!!! There is a whole lot more to hearing from the Lord than just hearing prophecy!!! And if you are a prophet - it almost certainly means that you have been already speaking to the Lord for sometime and have...

I love the thread!!! This is a topic that needs far more attention on Christian forums, and in the church!!! There are 2 issues I see in the OP; The first is simply hearing with our spiritual ears: May people don't hear with the spiritual ears, so they don't know Jesus Christ!! They might...

So wrong of obvious reason, the first of which is that Moses was speaking personally to the people and just getting around to writing it down! The next is that Moses explained to them, even in the writings we call Deuteronomy that the Lord speaks, and we find His words near us - in our hearts...

"He was speaking about the written word??? Oh my - a person that thinks that every word that proceeds from His mouth means the written word just does not personally know our Lord Jesus Christ!! Because they don't even know the Lord speaks!! Isiaih opened up the writings he made with this very...

Have you not read about Him also having them eat bitter herbs Exo 12:8 They shall eat the flesh that same night, roasted with fire, and they shall eat it with unleavened bread [and bitter herbs. Yes - we all want to eat sweet words all the time, but kids sometimes need reproof!! Rev 3:19...

One of the hardest things about hearing from the Lord is dealing with His people who should be the ones listening to Him, but so often are not. One day He had me open up my Bible to Ezk 3. He had me read it, and at the same time I was reading it He started talking to me and telling me a...

How does it go for you?

I am glade you like the post. The Bible certainly has some words from the Lord, but they were not spoken to you but rather those people who wrote them. Because those who wrote the Bible heard from the Lord, they wanted us to also hear from the Lord!!! The problem then comes from looking to them...

It is written that they will all be taught of God. Jesus Christ is the Word of God according to the Scriptures! That is His name!! Rev 19:13 He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. And the Bible is the Scriptures!! The Greek word in the Bible that...

Let me reference you to a couple of verses: The Scriptures (aka your Bible) is neither the Rhema nor Logos in Greek!! Graphe is the Greek word translated as Scriptures in your Bible!! Rhema means an utterance - which of course is a little statement made. For example Rhema is used in Romans...

I am committed to trying to get people to listen to the Lord Jesus Christ, by actually seeking to hear from Him!! There are reasons I am committed to doing that: The first reason is that He actually tells me to do that - and I can't think I should call Him my Lord and not put some effort into...

There is One who I hear from!! The first words I heard from Him was read your Bible, which I did and do. I got to know this One who talks to me. I call Him 'Lord', and He is spirit. Before Him coming into my life I didn't really know about anything spiritual, and I didn't want to. While raised...
