Communication with God

Read pages 257-264 of Stephen Canup’s book, "Knowing Jesus Intimately: A Relationship of Love-motivated, Spirit-empowered Obedience," which is available for free reading in Pando Books and Edovo.

TAKEAWAY HIGHLIGHT

“God has never made a spiritually deaf person. You can hear God because

his voice is immeasurably more about his love than your abilities. You are

his child; his love for you is vast, unchanging and unceasing. All it takes

to hear him is simply inclining an ear to him and allowing his words to

take root in you. As he speaks of his love, you will feel the chains of the

world fall off. As he tells you of his purpose, you will discover that a plan

has been in the works for you since before you were born. Choose to listen

to his voice today; let it drown out the cares of the world and create a soil

in you receptive to his seed, fertile and filled with the fruit of the Spirit.”

Craig Denison

PRACTICAL APPLICATION

Think about the fact that the Holy Spirit of God is with every Believer all

the time. How much are you communicating with Him during the day? Do

you seek His guidance for all your decisions? Do you try to obey His voice?
