You know that verse about how God speaks to us in that "still small voice"? I finally understood what "still" means. Our thoughts shift constantly like pictures that keep moving. But when he speaks to us, his message stands still and firm while our thoughts just swirl around it, that's how we can tell the difference between our own thoughts and his communication.
@@PreparingTheWay94 Thank you so much for the encouragement. I forgot that I had written that. Thanks for the reminder. Be safe in God's fist, my friend.
Sister I think it's important that you point out that no one is reconciled to God until they believe and OBEY the Gospel which is (as you've pointed out in other videos) that they must: HEAR BELIEVE REPENT CONFESS(Jesus, not thier sins) and then BE BAPTIZED into Christ. No one is in Christ till they're BAPTIZED into him (Galatians 3:27) and thier sins aren't Initially forgiven until they're BAPTIZED (Acts 2:37-40) so please, make that point at the start of each video for any new or non Believers so they get the Full Truth. Thanks and God bless 🙏💜 ✝️
Before talking to God try inviting him to talk and have communion with you to sit with you and get to know each other. Wait until you feel his presence you will know when he enters and have patience as you wait focus on your heart and filter through your chaotic feelings for what you really want and need; think of this as you doing your laundry or organizing what's actually important from the noise. God reads your heart not your words so do not worry about how you say things or if you stumble in your words he reads them clearly he knows what's on your heart but there is nothing wrong with asking worse case you don't get it or you have to wait for when God thinks your ready. Ask God to make this a private time for the two of you to close out any distractions, to quiet the flesh, and to keep out any unclean spirits or devils wanting to interfere in this time this will help with discerning Gods voice. Start by telling God the things you fail short today in the things you failed or sinned ask God what you can do to do better at these areas, ask God if there is anything in your life that is acting like a wall or veil between the two of you and to show you what it is and how to resolve it. Ask God if there is anything you should work on that you can do right now or today and if he will help you with it. Asking God to be apart of the solution and ask for his will to be involved in it is part of being a team with God an actual relationship. Tell God about the people you encountered today family friends neighbors, tell God what you felt about them and how they treated you or others and if they slighted you forgive them, ask God to help them and if there is something in their life they need prayer or something God can help guide you in for them. God can teach you what to pray to better help different people youj don't have to stumble with your prayer. Ask God if there is someone that needs prayer that you didn't encounter. Tell God the things your struggling with your fears like the bills, things you are interested in and may want to try, things you want or think you want. Ask God if these things will not only bring God glory but will they be a benefit to your spiritual growth or are they just temporal. If you desire the things that are spiritual God has no problem giving you the temporal if you are responsible enough to not allow them to become an obstacle or distraction with God but they may come later. Ask God to help you with the spiritual stuff to guide you in wisdom and Knowledge according to his Will, ask for the things God wants for you and the things he knows you need to be given first. If there are things that are in your life that are not of Gods will for you ask him to please remove them from your heart and from your life. Finally review all the things God has done for you and Thank him for them, if something is still being worked on or is pending by God thank him for considering the prayer, Thank God for the times has been harsh with you when you were being stubborn like a mule but had patience with you. In the beginning you should have a pen and paper with you write down what you feel, think, hear. Write out the answers you get, when your done check them against scripture you may get times when there are conflicting answers one will be of God one will be your flesh or something else. God is not the Spirit of confusion nor does he change his mind, do not ask things as conditionals or what ifs and test God. Like a child who says what if I clean my room will you then Give me my prayer. If something is a permanant No ask God to remove it from your desires.
The visualisation part ca nbc tricky, and tho it can come as meditation practice and we can stat focus on false gods. So even you may feel joy and uplift mood doesn't mean u connected with god I guess, I remember I followed meditation practices and it was about visualisation and feeling joy and peace, but it was all mind intent. So while bible say we can't follow any objects, idols. So I wonder... It is nice idea tho to make god more real, as actually he is all around us, but I just think that knowing he is beside us is enough, but not going too far with visualisation?
I've always struggled with prayer because often times it felt extremely awkward to just pray into my room all by myself. I had a hard time talking to God when I cannot see Him. That is why praying in the bright daylight feels really awkward to me. Because sometimes it's like "I was just cleaning my room and now I am supposed to talk to God. Like when did He enter my room." Which of course is a very ridiculous thought haha I know but it's how I felt. And so I could only really connect with God when I was snuggled under my blanket in the pitch-black darkness. Then I feel closest to Him. However, then I fall asleep quickly, which is not good either of course. I also struggled with the whole concept of the trinity - like who am I actually praying to. Father and Creator in Heaven? Jesus the human? The Holy Spirit within me? My mind could just not comprehend this. And all of this has made it really difficult to pray and still does. But I'm learning and growing. I'm asking the Holy Spirit to help me pray. And above all that, wow sister, you cannot imagine how much your explanation in this video helped me to truly understand prayer in a whole new way. It sounds so natural and authentic when you talk about it. I will think about those things you said from now on! And I will keep pushing through even when it's super awkward just like your friend. Thank you so much ❤️ God loves you so much!
Daisy Daisy Daisy, you touched on everything l have also battled with sis. You are not alone. Im also still learning to talk to God the Father just like l would a friend its a process😊 but by the Spirit's leading we will get there😚🙏💖
@@Shylyne Yes, sister. Like Mikayla said - if we a go near God, He comes near to us. I guess it’s all about practise and willingness to make this friendship more intimate! He’s always here for us. It’s up to us now. God bless you Shylyn ♥️
@@mikaylakooper I'm growing sister Mikayla in fellowship I'm going to church yes keep praying for me amen and I'm doing a faith growth group amen ✝️✝️✝️👍🙏🙃✝️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Please pray for me sister. I'm in a spot where only God can get me out. And I can't trust Him. I know He loves me I know Abt everything. I know that I'm signing and I know how to fix it. But I'm not brave enough to let go.
Jesus will give you the strength if you surrender all to Him and cry out to Him. He will help you to overcome. But you must be willing to give up your sin and put your full faith in Jesus. He will set you free! No sin is worth an eternity in hell. Don't cling to sin. Cling to Jesus I will definitely pray for you my friend
@@mikaylakooper thank you.😭 I'm going to give up my bf for Jesus bc I love Jesus more and I'm done. Please pray for me and my bf bc it's going to be hard for me and him and I'm worrying he will hate Jesus now bc I'm leaving him bc of that. I'm crying rn. I just want to be loved and if Jesus loves me then I'm going to believe it.😭😭😭😭
@@Sarah777_ Yes sister, Jesus loves you so much. Run from everything that doesn't please Jesus. If your ex is upset at God, that is not your fault. Just trust in Jesus and do the right thing. John 12:25 "He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life." We have to deny ourself, pick up our cross, and follow after Jesus
Hello sister! There is a long line of woman that wanted to be in the discipleship class but not everyone could be let in as it is too many people. I hope you understand. But I pray these disciple class videos will bless you!
If you talk to God as you claim, why didnt he tell you what he told every women of God who had an audible testimony of him about the jewelry(your wedding ring) and that make up will take a person to hell?
