Listening To God
My story
I grew up in a church. All of my life I have been part of a church. I read my Bible, listened to Christian music, and prayed. I committed to raising my kids in a church, and I answer all of their incredibly hard questions, the kind that are so hard to answer at a level that they can understand. Unfortunately, none of this added up to fire, to passion, or to a real relationship with God. I didn't understand how people truly felt the love of God. I knew God answers prayers, I knew He loved me, but I did not feel it.
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
Matthew 7:21-23
What I was missing, what I was never taught, was how to listen to the voice of God. I did not know how to turn to the Lord with my problems, how to engage with Him, or how to connect with Him. The Bible promises us rest in the Lord but I had no idea how to access that. How many other people, whether they have ever attended a church or not, have never learned how to do this?
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28
When I found Kingdom Motherhood, I had my first God encounter. It was incredible. I walked with Jesus. I saw Him, felt His hands grasp mine, felt Him smile at me, and heard His words. I could not believe that I could ever have an experience like this.
" My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me." John 10:27
After that, I was changed. I craved that intimacy with the Lord. I was telling anyone who would listen that I had heard from the Lord.
It still did not come easy. I practiced often, trying to get into that space. It was a skill that had to be learned. There are many ways that you can hear the voice of God and I was discovering how I did it best. I practiced, learned and taught my kids. It is still a work in progress, but every day, it comes easier.
Then one day, it clicked. I received prophetic words from my teacher and everything fell into place. I discovered a new way that I was hearing from God, a way that I had previously pushed aside while waiting on audible words. Again, I couldn't believe it.
Since that day, my relationship with the Lord had blossomed. It has grown into something beautiful. I am hearing from God daily, not only for myself but for others as well. I am still learning and growing and I am excited to share this with everyone.
I am being called to help people learn to hear the voice of God. I am sure that I am not alone in not learning that skill. Let me help you come into a new season of life, walking with your creator, hearing His voice, and being sure of your path. God provides the answers to all of your problems. He provides the healing to allow you to have peace. All that he wants is to have a relationship with you and to have a wonderful connection with you. Schedule a consult with me and I will help you build your relationship with God.
