4 ways that God speaks

4 ways that God speaks
1) In the Word
2 Tim 3:16
If you're not doing what he's already told you to do in the Word, why do you seek for more direction and expect God to tell you. That would just make you  accountable for more....if youre faithful with little you will be given much.
God's Word has to be the final authority for your life.

2) His Voice
He will never speak contrary to His Word...through dreams, visions, a donkey, an audible voice, prophets, through His Spirit.
1 Cor 2:9-12

No one knows your deep thoughts but your spirit and no one knows the deep thoughts of God but His Spirit. Communication with God is spirit to Spirit. The Lord speaks to our spirits.

The more time you spend with God you will recognize His voice. Just like when you've known your wife for 9 years, when she calls you from an unknown number and just says "Hey" you will know that its her. She doesn't have say "hey, this is Jessica", and you don't have to ask "Jessica who?" You will know her voice when you've been in relationship for that long.

3) His Council
If you don't spend time in His Word or in His presence, this is important to you.
Prov 11:14
Prov 12:15
Prov 15:22
Prov 19:20
Prov 24:6

4) His Peace
Col 3:15

To work on time

I had the intention of leaving to work on time this morning, but I left late because the freezing rain last night froze my door shut, and windows required heavy scraping. I was able to get in the car after some prying, and scraped a "hole" big enough to see ahead of me through the windshield (not best practice). After asking the Lord for help in getting to work on time, I arrived safely, and with a minute to spare :) Praise God!

I no longer make the best fried fish

Last night for dinner I made some fried fish. Aliza said it is the best fried fish. This morning, it is the first thing she said also, "Daddy, you make the best fried fish". I hugged her, and we went downstairs. It's Monday, so I'm getting some things ready before I head out the door, and she asked for some chocolate covered pretzels...I gave her a couple and she cries out for more. When I denied her request for more, she cries and yells "You don't make the best fried fish!"

Update

Much happened since the last 3 months, and I should have kept up with posting updates, but I was lazy. I'm sorry. I'm going to mention one marvelous testimony for now. On October 13, I went to see a doctor for the results of a test a week prior. Since a few months before then, I felt shortness of breath and chest discomfort, and that's why I went to the doc in the first place. So, on the 13th, doc said I had class 1 heart failure, outputting 35% of blood. I was put on meds, and began praying for healing. I prayed with my wife, I prayed with the prayer team at church, and believed I would be healed, though often the devil lied to me with doubt that it would not happen. This past Friday, Nov 6th, however, I went in for an angiograph, to see if the coronary arteries were part of the issue. After the test, the doctor stated that the heart was beating just fine, without problems! God's timing is perfect!
