A Journey of Discovery

Job 33:14 says God speaks all the time but sometimes we fail to perceive it. Years ago when I began my journey with the Lord, I believed the only way He spoke was audibly, through His Holy Bible and through the pastors and leaders of the church. But Scriptures tells us that God is vast and He can speak to us in a variety of ways. Join me as I share 8 of the 15 different ways that I’ve discovered how the Lord speaks. I pray you will be encouraged and recognize that God is speaking to you too. My hope is that after we discover the various ways God speaks that it will open us up to hear His voice each and every day.

Here are 8 of the 15 ways that God speaks:

Still small voice –

📖 1 Kings 19:11-12 The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”

Emotions

Events & Circumstances

📖 1 Sam 15:27-28 But Samuel said to him, “I will not go back with you. You have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord has rejected you as king over Israel! As Samuel turned to leave, Saul caught hold of the hem of his robe, and it tore. Samuel said to him, “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today and has given it to one of your neighbors—to one better than you.”
