Waiting: The “How-To’s” of Hearing the Lord’s Voice For our purposes, waiting on the Lord is the process by which our soul and body are presented before the Lord in stillness by faith to provide Him the opportunity to do His work without our conscious interference. Decide on a specific amount of time. As a starting point, set as a goal to practice learning to wait 20 minutes 5 times a week and 2 h...

As we learn to depend on Him, as He exercises His full rights over our lives, we begin to enjoy letting Him live through us, even in unpleasant situations. Since one of the goals of the flesh is to maintain control, as the Lord begins to exert His absolute control over our life, there will be conflict with the flesh, both our own and the flesh of those who, for whatever reason, believe they have a...

At one time or another, we all likely fall into the trap of trying to take responsibility for our relationship with God. But it is all His idea, and He already has planned out every circumstance, challenge and encouragement necessary to bring us into the full realization of experiencing His eternal life in our whole being. Realizing this, we may fall the other way, into the deception that since Go...

As our soul and body align with our spirit, His River of Life flows through us unhindered; our behavior begins to line up with our identity. Not only do we experience freedom, healing and dependence in our own being, but we become available and engaged, enthusiastic and sacrificing, to bring His life to those in need according to His plan. So as knowing God is developing that personal relationship...

Growing in God? As we follow on to know Him, we will increase in our awareness of His presence, involvement, and His character in our lives. In our spirits, who we truly are, we are already as mature as we are ever going to get. What DOES change in us is only the appearance of God Himself to and through us. We are not really growing, or reaching the “next level.” But our experience of knowing God...

We start by asking Him to reveal Himself, acknowledging that He fully enabled us to know Him when He gave us a new heart at the Resurrection. We already have the capability to know and understand, we just fail to put in the time and attention that any valuable endeavor deserves. Growing in God? As we follow on to know Him, we will increase in our awareness of His presence, involvement, and His cha...

You Already Want to Know God Who we truly are, as spirit beings, already completely knows Him and is receiving His Life, living His eternal Life now. But our soul and body do not yet know Him on that same level. This is the separation that we are experiencing here on this earth—that in our soul and body we are still trying to get life, our needs met, on our own, through our own efforts and by our...

What Knowing God is Not Knowing God cannot necessarily be measured by what we’ve been taught by others. We can know all about a subject or person and never have experienced that subject or truly known that person at all. Even when a person passes along their experiences, because you are unique and God seeks a unique experience with you, sharing in another’s relationship with God is no substitute f...

What is Knowing God? Knowing God is being in an intimate relationship with Him in all aspects of our being, spirit, soul and body. As Believers, we already enjoy this relationship with God in our spirit. But in our soul (mind, will and emotions) and body we are still in the process of getting to know Him as He is. So though we already possess all the eternal life we ever will, this great salvation...

10. Be willing to be out of control. The more you get to know God personally and practically the more you will be willing to be out of control. One of God's main purposes for us now is to make this a reality in our lives on this earth. This can be a scary thing, but the Lord knows this, and gives us exactly the training we need to be able to have confidence in Him based on experience. We find out...

9. Develop your Warfare Skills. Recognize, prepare and engage in battle with your three enemies: the world, the flesh and the devil. Failing to engage in this battle surrenders that battlefront and makes you vulnerable in that area. Warfare is waged through depending on the Lord, but rest assured that this warfare is part of teaching us how to depend on Him and not on our own strength or understan...

7. KISS: Keep it Simple, Saint! The desire to make the Christian walk complicated or specialized, by depending on mental understanding of the scriptures or approval from others, is often merely an expression of the arrogance of our adamic soul trying to control God. 8. Develop your Supernatural Senses. The more we depend on the Lord for Life, Guidance and for the meeting of all our needs, the more...

6. Accept that God loves you as a unique individual, and wants what is best for you. Your value is not measured by what you can accomplish FOR Him, but by how much you depend ON Him. No comparisons are adequate to describe the satisfaction and contentment that awaits those who know their God.       7. KISS: Keep it Simple, Saint! The desire to make the Christian walk complicated or specialized, by...

4. Don’t put off until another time the freedom, healing and responsibility God wants you to experience now. Discover God’s purpose for you now, in personal terms, then keep your focus on what He is doing in your life. Let Him be God, and you’ll get along pretty well. 5. Acknowledge and submit to the sovereignty and jealous authority of God over your life. Let Him show you areas in your life where...

Here’s a quick summary of 10 things that we can do to join God in His purposes for us now: 1. Be willing to change your beliefs. Question what you think you know, and let the Lord reveal His Truth. 2. Embrace your True Identity: You have already agreed to everything God is doing in, to and through you, so don’t look for someone (including your self) to blame for the situation you’re in or the mist...

Joining God as He works out His purposes in our lives enables us to rest and abide with confidence. When we know we’re on God’s side, we know the result is guaranteed and will be satisfying for both us and God. We can face life’s guaranteed trials and tribulations with excitement, waiting to see what God is going to do, knowing all is under His loving control. And we can take responsibility over o...

God really only wants two things from us: our Time and our Attention. First, we show up for class. Second, we work on the assignments He gives us. Persistence We join in God’s purposes by sticking it out with Him. There will be many opportunities to settle for less, because good and better are always the greatest enemy of best. Saying “enough” to the Lord is rejecting His plan, and He deals quite...

God’s Purpose Now: God Teaches Us How To Walk In Freedom God’s purpose is to teach us in practical terms how to walk in this life in freedom from the influence of the world, our flesh and the devil. What Hinders God’s Purpose Now? Nothing! He will not let anything — our mind, our will or our emotions — stand in His way! Our soul, even our will, is not stronger than God. How Do We Join God In Accom...

Removing our flesh is His job, not ours, and He is always working on this. Our flesh is the only thing that truly stands in the way of our resting and relaxing in our new identity, and it is the only thing that interferes with God’s life working in and through us. He’s got His own time-table, and we can rest assured that He’s working on what’s most important to Him, though it may not be what we wa...

God Gives Himself God’s purpose now is to give Himself to us and through us. Since this is His nature, and it will not change, receiving what He wants to give is something we’d better get good at. From our perspective, this giving is evidenced by His meeting our needs for unconditional love, acceptance and individual value. There is no limit to His meeting of these needs, and He shows no partialit...

Part of the process of bringing us into relationship with Him is that He brings to the surface the sources and foundations of what we believe, often by putting us into situations where those beliefs are tested. Since none of us has all the truth, at least some of what each of us believes is a lie. We need to be willing to change our mind, to submit what we believe to scru-tiny, realizing that what...

Knowing God is what we are made for; or more accurately, ­what we are re-made for. It is only when we continue to try to know Him on our terms, continue to do things our way, that we come to believe we can't hear Him consistently on this earth. But God’s purpose for us now is to be in a knowing, experiential relationship with Him, and He will not let anything stand in His way. Yet if we don’t know...

We are learning to resist the peer pressure that is so prevalent in this present age. How easy it is to settle for less — we compare ourselves with those who are close to us or those in leadership positions, and by doing so subtly affirm their lives or teachings as our standards. God values us now “as is,” and expects us to value ourselves on the same basis. It doesn’t depend on what we have accom...

We are vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy where we have unhealed wounds and are therefore walking after the flesh in that area. Where we believe a lie, the enemy has a legal right to interfere in our lives. Overcoming the enemy does not mean we will stop being vulnerable to temptation. Being tempted does not mean anything — Jesus was in all ways tempted as we are. It’s when we ascribe meaning...
