In our journey of faith, recognizing God’s voice amidst the noise of everyday life is essential. It helps us stay grounded and navigate through temptations and sins.
1. What Does It Mean to Hear God’s Voice?
God communicates with us in so many ways but it is up to us to know and to be sensitive to the Spirit but how??
The Importance of scripture, prayer, and meditation. Reading God’s word will speak to you to your situation. You will learn about the many confirmations God can use to get through to you such as His Voice or through Angels that walk among us. Both these ways are looked at in Lila and the Voice and Lila and the Visitor.
Spending time in God’s presence will help you to become more familiar and more sensitive to hearing His Voice. Using spiritual meditation is a great way to connect with God on a deeper level gaining access to so much more.
2. Common Lies of the Enemy and How to Identify Them
“you aren’t qualified, this is what it is so just accept it, nothing will ever change”- have you heard this and are you tired of these lies the enemy is constantly trying to feed you?
Well one way to defeat the enemy is by knowing it’s the enemy and not believing it. The more time you spend with God, the more you begin to know God Voice, the more you are about to know what to believe and what not to believe.
So how do you discern between God’s truth and the enemy’s lies. Spending time in the word, in His Presence and in righteousness building up your sensitivity to His Voice. Knowing that God’s voice will never leave you feeling stressed, pressured or uneasy.
3. Practical Steps to Tune into God’s Voice

4. Personal Story of Overcoming Sin by Listening to God
We sin daily and it will seem more noticeable when you are practicing righteousness and beginning to walk the path God desires you to walk.
My personal story is I almost got into a deep relationship with a married man. Yes. And of no fault of my own. The lies and the deception were so real but something on the inside kept telling me something wasn’t right and I’m so glad I listened. I was damaged but I wasn’t broken. I believe if I had listened sooner, I wouldn’t have had to deal with any damage but I’m glad that my God is a forgiving patient God. He never gave up on me.
We encourage you to be H.O.T (humble, open and transparent) and share your stories in the comments. Was there a time you listened to God and overcame sin?
Friend, take time each day to listen to God’s voice and trust in His promises. When in doubt, ask for confirmation. God will answer and if He doesn’t, well that’s Also an answer☺️
