once I needed a job, I got on my knees and I prayed to GOD, "Lord I really need a job, I have tried for 4 months on my own and still nothing, please help me, tell me what to do and I'll do it" and like a child I knew He would answer me. I kept my brain clear and didn't try to think of anything because I trusted the Lord to answer me. Then in my head and my heart came this message "help the Yoders" I knew who they were they bought the land next door and I saw them working outside sometimes, so I obediently said "okay" and I walked away and the next day I took a shovel over there and helped mr Yoder dig. Turns out he is a preacher. Within an hour his son drove up, he had spiritually clear eyes and a quick smile he seemed amused by the stranger working hard with his father. He said to his father "looks like you've got quite a worker here" his dad said "yep he came over just to help, he is quite a worker" anthony said" I can see that" it was the middle of the week and he asked me "do you have a job?" I said "no" he said are you looking?" I said yes, he said I just put an add in the paper for a mason's assistant, if you are interested the job is yours.
One day I stayed the night at my friends house and I was about to go to bed and God put it in my heart to read the bible. I knew it was Him because it was not something I had tried to think about, I just felt I needed to. So I asked Rob for a bible. He said he didn't have one. I asked about his mother he said no and she was at work. He handed me a book on martial arts. I took it to my room and again in my heart was this strong feeling to read the bible. I looked up and said matter of factly "I would love to read your word Lord, but if you want me to read the bible you will have to show me one" in the other room was an audible THUD where I knew was a bookshelf I rose from the bed and smiled knowing what I would find. I found books scattered where they had fallen with a large beatiful white bible in plain view in the pile.
one time I had been blinded in my eye by a thorn, I was yelling at GOD because I thought he had taken that which was mine and I coveted, my sight. In the middle of yelling at him he placed into my head 3 entire paragraphs of information that changed forever how I viewed life, he did it in the middle of my sentence, mouth still opened with words, He inturrupted me and it was faster than a computer download at the speed of lightening I knew every word and could repeat it verbatim for 3 months. God talks to us in many different forms.. Rule one, you must fully trust Him to answer you, Rule two, don't think when you wait. Rule 3, don't give Him a timeline be content to wait however long it takes rule 4 when He puts it in your head or on your heart don't question Him. Have the faith that even if you happened to be wrong you asked and truly believed it was from Him He will reward you for your faith.

ummm obviously not. I thought I made that clear, how could I while yelling a list of horrible things cut myself off mid sentence and tell myself 3 paragraphs of detailed information word for word in a flash? how could I tell myself to help people I'd never met and been lucky enough to accidentally have the good fortune to answer my own prayer?. Boy that was lucky and how could I tell myself to thump over books in the other room and talk myself into knowing where a bible was? thats ridiculous.

I believe that its very misleading to say its mandatory to hear voices
then dodge explaining what you mean. And the amen crew are guilty
also. This leads any young convert to seek to hear voices if their eternal
souls matter to them. And voices now they must hear.
Shame on the bunch of you that teach and spread this kind of garbage.
Most people know there is a demonic realm, and that our imaginations
can go wild. I cant give a rip about your subjective experiences, grow
up and have a heart for someone else besides your yourself.
By the way to any reader, hearing a voice is not what the bible means
by hearing His voice. It means your understanding will be empowered
to understand. If God chooses to give you an audible voice He will.
But it is not common. Most people who say He did lied. And it is not
at all necessary to hear any voices to know the Lord.
Lovechilds you continue to make these claims and refuse to explain.
You just refuse. Ive asked you many times in many threads to explain
for other readers sake exactly what you mean. Your spiritworld life
to me is nothing more than a scattering. Your ought to have a rethink.

- Psalm 95:7
For He is our God and we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today, if you will hear His voice,
Psalm 95:6-8 (in Context) Psalm 95 (Whole Chapter) - John 10:27
The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice; and I know them, and they follow Me.
John 10:26-28 (in Context) John 10 (Whole Chapter)
IF YOU DON'T EXPLAIN HOW TO HEAR GOD'S VOICE AFTER SAYING OUR SALVATION DEPENDS ON IT, what does that say about your PIOUS pleas and public prayers that we all get saved your way Linda?
TELL US PLEASE .
Is:30: 21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee,saying this is the way,walk ye in it.
Rev 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man hear my voice,and open the door
I will come in and sup with him, and he with me.
Rom 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
John11:43 And when he had thus spoken,he cried with a loud voice Lazarus, come forth.
Rev1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass,as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
Jon5:25The dead shall hear the voice of God.

I don't get ur point Zone and Abiding and Unclefester, is it that people don't hear from God anymore or is it that you feel this thread was directed to you one way or the other.. Isn't is suspicious that it's always the 3 of you bringing up arguments or backing up each other to fight other Christians.. She brings up a good thread and you start asking unreasonable questions. Why?.. Guilty Conscience?
I used to think 4runner was taking it too far before but now i'm really wondering, could this really be a CULT?

The question has NEVER been the hearing, but what it means to hear. Audible? just what.
If its a understanding that comes from the Spirit...fine. That is confirmed in scripture. But to be sassy
and run around the forums telling people if they dont hear Gods voice they arnt saved.
That demands an explaination.

Hey Toby. If you knew linda and some of the stuff she has been trying to defend. You would know the reason she opened this thread. I could be wrong, but what I have seen from her lately, I doubt I am,
Linda is trying to tell us if we have never had an open conversation with God as the charismatics do. we must not be saved. It is a thing where one distorts truth and makes is sound spiritual. What Zone unclefester and Abiding are doing is try to make her put up, and defend her accusations. As you see, as usual, linda never does. she makes accusations against those who do not believe as she does. but then runs when confronted.
