OUR PREDISPOSITION TO HEAR.

Happy New Month lovelies❤️.


What you hear from God is partly determined by the

 attitude you carry into any conversation with Him. Our 

mind-set toward a conversation with God is affected by 

these things:

. Our Prior Relationship With God — Each of us has a 

history with God that began even before birth (Jer. 1:5). 


He ordained us to be on earth, and He has a plan and 


purpose for us, even though we may not have recognized 


them yet. However, until a person has received Jesus 


Christ as his personal Savior by faith, he will not be able 


to hear God speak on any subject other than salvation. If 


you’re having trouble hearing from God, you may need to 


double  check your relationship with Him. He’s not 


motivated to speak to any of us on the basis of our good 


deeds or our needs. He’s motivated to speak to us because 


He has a relationship with us. 


· Our Understanding About God — What we hear is 


affected by our understanding of who God is. Do you 


view God as a loving or demanding Father? An intimate 


or distant friend? A patient or intolerant teacher? A gentle 


or angry guide? A generous or reluctant provider? Do you 


see Him as understanding or insensitive? If you struggle 


in perceiving God as loving, patient, gentle, generous, or 


understanding, it will affect what and how you hear from 


Him.  


· Our Attitude Toward God — When approaching God, 


we must be submissive to Him and His will for our lives 


(James 4:7). We must trust that He will only do that which


is best and right for us. And we must come before Him 


with a thankful heart for all He has done and will continue


to do for each of us. Being in right relationship with the 


Father, understanding who He is, and approaching Him in 


humility and reverence places us in the right position to 


not only actively hear what He has to say to us, but also to 


apply His truth to our lives.


I pray we get a clearer revelation of the points mentioned above as we wait to hear from God.

Thank you for reading❤️

THE FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN.

  Hey lovelies, Happy weekend. So, to today’s discussion, I’m sure you’re wondering what exactly it's going to about well think less, stay tuned and read on 😉 . The fear of the unknown is usually something that gets in the way of a lot of us getting things done, trying new things, going outside of our comfort zone and everything new or different. It’s not easy to do things without being scared of what could happen, the what if’s and all the clauses, one sure thing is that this all brings about anxiety. I usually say something, everything in this life is a risk, sleeping is a risk but it doesn't make us not to sleep, driving is a risk but it doesn’t make us not to drive, working is a risk but it doesn’t make us stop working, business is a risk but it doesn’t stop us from investing and going into other lines of business and having several streams of businesses  and the list goes on and on of risks in life that we still engage in. A lot of the people some of us look up to or hea...

SIGNIFICANT HALLMARKS OF GOD'S MESSAGE.

Hey lovelies, Happy weekend, I hope we’re all doing well, staying safe, and trying to get ourselves back together(emotionally), let’s not forget to keep our hopes, faith and strength up no matter how hard things get, it might take longer but the land would be green ❤️ . Last weekend I wrote about “When God Speaks” and the importance of the spiritual sensitivity to know when God is talking. Today you are going to reading about how to know it’s God speaking. NB: this was inspired by my daily devotional  🤗 . It's important to hear from God or communicate with God but it’s also important to know when it’s God who is speaking. There are five significant hallmarks of God’s messages to us. They’re a means of determining whether the voice we’re hearing is truly the voice of God. If you have a question about whether a message is from God, line it up against these criteria’s: 1.  The message must be consistent with the Word of God, the Bible.   God will never tell us to engage in ...

TRACING THE DOTS.

  Hey lovelies, Happy new month 🤗 , I pray for more of God’s evident presence this month in Jesus name. Don’t forget to always pray without ceasing. Today’s topic of discussion is sounding like some CID    or Sherlock Holmes kind of thing  😂  but I hope after reading this you try and trace the dots if you feel like you’ve lost the touch. Tracing the dots or in a better way getting it right.  In life as humans and as Christians we default, of course, we aren’t perfect so we have to default at a point in time or the other. Defaulting isn’t the issue but knowing when and where you’ve defaulted and correcting the default or making sure it doesn’t happen again is always the issue. A lot of times we hear people say things like “I used to be a prayer person before but now I don’t know what happened, I can’t even explain” does that person sound like you? Are you feeling that way?   At any point in life where you have to say these words have it in mind t...
