Posted on January 16, 2010 | No CommentsHINDRANCES TO HEARING – Part 4 2) God’s Pattern For Your Life. Our theology (a preconception about God) often comes into conflict with the Spirit’s guidance in our life – and when it does, we face the grave danger of missing the will of God.

Now God was telling me to do something that would mean giving up pastoring local churches.... -

Posted on January 9, 2010 | No CommentsHINDRANCES TO HEARING – Part 3 4. Disobedience Stops God’s Voice Brother Judson Cornwall said he was fervently praying, asking the Lord to speak to him. The Lord finally said, “Judson, why should I speak to you again, when you haven’t obeyed what I told you the last time I spoke to you?” Brother Cornwall got right up and did what the Lord had previously told him to.

Posted on December 19, 2009 | No CommentsIntroduction Is God still speaking today? Is it possible to hear the voice of God? Christian leaders are confused about this issue. Some believe that God can guide us and give direction when we need it. Others say God only speaks to us by what we read in the Bible. I believe that God still speaks to us today by His Holy Spirit just as He did in Bible times. What do you believe? The Pseudepigrapha tells about a sect of the Pharisees that came into existence 800 years... -
