Is it God speaking?

October 15, 2018 By Peege

Most of my content is about physical health, fitness, and happiness, but this one is mostly about the last one in that list. It’s actually beyond happiness. It’s about true joy. Joy is deep and permanent. Happiness comes and goes, and while it’s certainly fun and feels good, it never has a permanent impact on your life or physiology. Joy does. It’s soul food and it often comes in the form of the voice of God.

God speaks to everyone differently because He knows each person’s brain wiring, learning style and circumstances better than anyone. He knows just what to say too. And at just the right time. Here is my personal experience so far, hearing God and knowing if it’s His voice. I often still get in the way, but I’ve boiled it down to three main things:

1. It’s better than I could do. The message or thought received is too profound, different, or surprising for my brain to have come up with it.
2. He repeats himself. He does this in the Bible with important messages, themes, and quotes (either direct from Jesus or through prophets), but also in our lives through two or more people saying the same thing, two or more different books, verses, radio shows, etc.
3. It convicts or moves me deeply, with a feeling of safety, and/or relief, and/or excitement, and/or peace, in such a way that it allows complete surrender to be possible. If I can really give it up fully to Him, I know it came from Him. I should be able to do that with everything, but it’s hard. Not when He speaks though. Then it feels easy.
These three points sometimes happen together, and sometimes separate, but they all can indicate that it’s Him and not me just making stuff up in my own head (or my reticular activating system noticing things because it’s on alert for some reason).
I don’t know how God speaks to you, but maybe it’s similar to me and if it is, hopefully this post has helped you.
