Beyond some of the initial, basic things you are already hearing here, I am consistently reminded of His existence... and more importantly, His PRESENCE... by small, daily instances that I could easily dismiss or overlook if I was not attuned to be aware of them.
Small things. Like almost imperceptible mental suggestion such as to where to look for someone others might be trying to locate........ or to just phone or speak to someone, and mention a particular subject...... or to "do" something that might normally be out of character for me.
Something pretty special always seems to happen when I listen to that hardly noticeable urging. And, I usually end up regretting it in some way when I don't.

Looking back, I find it has always been there to an extent. To me, the key is to be open to "sensing" ("hearing" in your mind?) even the smallest thing, and ....... MUCH more importantly.... acting upon those "feelings" or "impressions". A lot is said on here about "obeying". Most people take that to mean keeping a bunch of rules they have catalogued from the Bible or from Tradition. I see "obeying" more as moving on those urgings or tuggings... immediately, and without question.
doing what god, told you to do, is obeying. ie phone your friend, help someone cross the road. etc. you don t need the bible for that, but believing god, told you to do it. is the key to growth in him. but the bible the logos for example is open to all reader, yet miss simple things that you point out here willie. yet the logos word, mostly explains what others were told to do for god. yet there revelation is told to others, and people are getting the holy spirit. so there is still power of the truth, in the logos word. ie god told them to do something. so the rhema, is being missed.
my point, what is god telling the modern believer. if they are still stuck in the logos. how is god reveled to modern believer.

humans all have a soul, willie. touch, taste, hear smell etc.
paul calls them, fruits of the spirit. but used words that describe emotion, love, joy , kindness. etc
yet god, tells cain to control his anger. etc pointing out emotion ,that can be governed.
so, do our emotion , grow, as we age. as dose out understanding. so how is there a link to god, if you already have them.

I asked for signs for a year and everything happened. If this doesn't happen I don't believe in God. It went on and on. First I thought oh come on, that's just a coincidence, but after a year I was convinced. The last thing was I won a tennis match while it was 4-0 for her and she played much better. Then I went to a church and got saved.

I think I know what your askin...but you know sometimes it's hard to explain.....somethin deep inside you starts to move and questions come and you ain't got a clue where they come from cause you weren't even thinking them....sometimes your going through somethin rough and a voice comes....or somethin inside you feels like it's movin...when He knows its time though, God knows exactly what to do to get your attention.... But it's a whole lot easier if you do it on your own!!!.... OOOOWWEEE....lemme tell ya....
