God Speaks Your Language Acts 2:1-13
In our journey of faith, one of the most transformative questions we face is: How does God actually speak to us? This message unpacks four primary ways we hear from our Creator, starting with the foundation of all divine communication—the Bible itself. Scripture is described as God-breathed, given to teach, rebuke, correct, and train us in righteousness. But God doesn't stop there. He speaks through teachers and fellow believers, using ordinary people—even comparing it to how He spoke through Balaam's donkey—to remind us that He can use anyone to deliver His truth. The third way, impressions and thoughts, requires careful discernment. Not every idea that crosses our mind comes from God; some stem from pride, and others from the enemy. This is why testing our impressions against Scripture and seeking counsel from trusted believers is crucial. Finally, God speaks through circumstances—the seemingly coincidental encounters and divine appointments that reveal His active hand in our lives. The peach tree illustration powerfully demonstrates that fruitfulness comes only from remaining connected to the vine. When we disconnect from Jesus through disobedience or neglect, we lose our ability to bear fruit, no matter how hard we try. The challenge before us is clear: when God speaks, we must respond with obedience rather than hardening our hearts. Our spiritual productivity and protection from life's pitfalls depend on our willingness to listen and act on what we hear.
Dr. Logan shares about the importance of standing against fear. Fear does not come from God.
When we’re afraid, it seems as though nothing anyone else says or does can make a difference. But ?' well, what if God has something to say? And what if it does actually make a difference? Would it be worth listening to?

Transformative Truth: God Communicates for His Glory and for Our Benefit I. God Speaks in Many Ways II. God Speaks by Jesus His Son
For my money, Psalm 33 is a quintessential psalm of praise. In each praise psalm God's people are called to worship and are given reason after reason why we ought to worship the Lord. In Psalm 33, the fuel for our worship is God's sure word and total rule.But just as what God says is fuel for our worship, it also acts as the fuel for our trust in him. But so often our trust wanes, based more on our circumstances than what God has said or done. As you prepare for our time in the word, pray that the truth revealed in Psalm 33 would brighten our hearts and fuel our worship and our trust in God's saving purposes for his people.
Today, we examine the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:48, when He set the New Testament standard for how His followers should follow God. Jesus said, we are to, "...be perfect even as our heavenly father is perfect." Does God require perfection from us? How can we be perfect in an imperfect world? How do we reconcile what appears to be a contrary statement? Pastor Wade discusses these questions along with many others in today's teaching.
In a world filled with distractions, opinions, and constant noise, God's voice is often heard most clearly in moments of stillness and surrender. In this episode, we explore what it means to hear God's voice and confidently follow His leading. We'll discuss how God speaks through His Word, the prompting of the Holy Spirit, prayer, and at times through people. Learning to recognize God's voice isn't about chasing dramatic signs—it's about developing a daily relationship with Him. As we spend time in His presence, our hearts become more sensitive to His direction, our faith grows stronger, and we gain the confidence to take the next step, even when we can't see the entire path. When we choose to listen, we can walk with confidence, knowing that the Good Shepherd still leads His people today.John 10:27: "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."My 30 Day Faith to Believe devotional:Faith to Believe – 30 Day Devotional eBook - Elevate | Christina JollyConnect with me at:Home - Elevate | Christina JollyGet your FREE eBook download here:Elevate Your Faith in 5 Minutes - Elevate | Christina Jolly

Text Me Here!!!We've got a little bit different kind of an episode this week, I'm on a mission to get through this entire General Conference before Baby gets here, and to do that the only way I can see is by doubling up our talks for every episode.It might take a little more getting used to on my part, because the talks start to blend together, but then I also think, Doubling up on the talks = Doubling up on the Spirit, right? (;I'm so excited to have you go through these talks though, both of these Elder's did such a fantastic job at reminding us how special we each are to our Savior, Jesus Christ and our Father in Heaven.******Links:Elder Holmes Bio: https://www.thechurchnews.com/leaders/2025/07/19/elder-brian-j-holmes-biography-serve-lord-guidance-family-new-general-authority-seventy/Elder Holmes Talk: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2026/04/28holmes?lang=engElder Matswagothata Bio: https://www.thechurchnews.com/leaders/2025/07/31/elder-clement-m-matswagothata-general-authority-seventy-bio-april-2025-botswana/Elder Matswagothata Talk: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2026/04/29matswagothata?lang=eng E-mail: munchandminglepodcast@gmail.comInsta: @munchandminglepodcast
There is something curious about the way people speak of God. We often imagine Him as distant, alone, or occupied with the endless business of running the universe. We picture a great King, but seldom a Father. Left to ourselves, we could never have guessed what God is like in His own life. We may have discovered that there is a Creator by looking at mountains, stars, or the order of the world, but we could never have discovered the secret of His heart.That secret had to be revealed.When Jesus came, He did not simply bring new commandments or wiser teachings. He came to introduce us to Someone. Again and again He spoke of "My Father." He lived in perfect love, perfect trust, and perfect obedience to the Father. Then He promised the Holy Spirit, the very bond of love between the Father and the Son, to dwell within His people. Suddenly the veil was pulled back. We discovered that God is not solitary. From all eternity, God is a communion of love: the Father giving Himself to the Son, the Son returning Himself completely to the Father, and the Holy Spirit proceeding as the living gift of that eternal love.This is not a puzzle for clever minds to solve. It is an invitation.The astonishing thing is that Jesus did not reveal this mystery merely to satisfy our curiosity. He revealed it because He desires to draw us into it. He does not stand at a distance and say, "Look how wonderful My Father's house is." He opens the door and says, "Come in." Through Him we become children of the Father, not by nature, but by grace. We are welcomed into the very family life of God.If this seems too wonderful to believe, that is because it is. No philosopher could have imagined it. No religion devised by man would dare to promise such a thing. We might have hoped for forgiveness. We might even have hoped for heaven. But who would have dared to hope that the eternal Son would make room for us in His own relationship with the Father?Yet this is the Christian gospel. The life of God is not kept behind locked gates. In Christ, it is opened to all who will receive Him. The Father delights to call us His children, the Son calls us His brothers and sisters, and the Holy Spirit teaches our hearts to cry, "Abba, Father."The end of the Christian life is not simply to become better people. It is to share, forever, in the endless exchange of love that has filled the Trinity from all eternity. That is the destiny Jesus came to reveal, and the gift He and only He, came to give. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

In this sermon Pastor Matt Stephens, focuses on Job 38–41, where God finally answers Job—not by explaining his suffering, but by revealing Himself. After 35 chapters of questions and silence, God speaks from the whirlwind and responds with a series of questions that highlight His wisdom, power, and care over all creation. Rather than giving Job the reason for his suffering, God reminds him that He alone governs the universe, controls the chaos, and even holds the greatest forces of evil and death on a leash. Job's deepest need was not an explanation but a renewed vision of who God is. The sermon emphasizes that bringing honest questions to God is not a lack of faith; it is often an act of holding on to Him. The main application was that while we may never receive answers to all our “why” questions, we can trust God's heart because He has already demonstrated His love through Christ.

Using 2 Corinthians 5:17-20 as a theological foundation, this message illustrates specific ways God can speak to us through other people. Since it can be difficult to discern if what people say to us really comes from God, four key questions are offered to assist with such needed discernment.
Too often, in troubled times, man tries to fix what only God can achieve. That's what happened in Judah—the remaining remnant of Israel—as King Josiah recognized the spiritual descent of the people and implemented societal reforms in an effort to turn people back to God. But can legislated laws ever change people's hearts?In this message, Stuart Briscoe examines Josiah's well-intended yet superficial attempts to solve deep-rooted heart problems in the hearts of the people of Judah.

During this week's office hours Pastor Amos led discussions on hearing God's voice and fielded questions from participants. Micah shared his experience learning to recognize God's voice through short statements that align with Scripture over 25 years ago, and discussed his recent receipt of compensation from the Flint water crisis lawsuit after 11-12 years. Rosalind discussed dreams she had been experiencing about marriage and relationships, connecting them to her past sexual trauma and questioning how God communicates through such "strange" methods. Stephanie shared her experience persevering through a hurricane recovery process to receive government assistance for her roof, emphasizing the importance of being persistent and providing complete information. The conversation then shifted to practical topics including using AI assistants like Claude for business research and removing phone numbers from spam call databases. Doyin and Deborah contributed insights about predestination and the difference between research and clinical mindsets when studying the Bible, with Deborah sharing her experience taking a psychology licensing exam and learning to approach Scripture from a clinical perspective rather than just an academic one. __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________
Thomas Vincent's God's Terrible Voice in the City is one of the most vivid, haunting, and deeply convicting eye-witness accounts of history. It captures a two-year window when London was brought to its knees by two consecutive apocalyptic crises: the Great Plague of 1665 and the Great Fire of 1666.
How do you know when God is speaking?Have you ever wondered if that thought, opportunity, or conviction was really from God—or just your own mind?In this message, we explore one of the key truths from Experiencing God: God speaks by the Holy Spirit through the Bible, prayer, circumstances, and His church to reveal Himself, His purposes, and His ways.Looking at Jesus' promises in John 14 and Paul's encouragement in Colossians 4, we'll discover how the Holy Spirit leads believers today, why God's Word must always be our foundation, and how prayer, life's circumstances, and the encouragement of fellow believers help us recognize His voice.Whether you're searching for direction, facing an important decision, or simply longing to know God more deeply, this message will challenge you to draw near to Him and learn to recognize His leading.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What if God is speaking, but not in the way you expected?In this episode, Jerry L. Martin reflects on how God may guide us through everyday life, through prayer, intuition, conscience, spiritual experience, and through other people.When Jerry first heard God ask him to “tell My story,” he was surprised by the idea that God could have a story at all. But as he was led through the sacred texts of the world's religions, he began to see divine reality as active, personal, many-sided, and deeply involved in human life.God's story is not only found in ancient scriptures or world religions. It continues in the lives of ordinary people.Jerry explores how to recognize divine guidance, how to listen for God's presence, and why spiritual discernment begins with paying attention. Sometimes God may speak through a friend's advice, a repeated message, a task that falls into your path, a feeling in the body, or a moment of unexpected help.For anyone who has ever felt abandoned by God, spiritually alone, or unsure how to hear God's voice, this episode offers a powerful reminder: you may not be alone. God may already be present through the people, signs, and quiet invitations around you.This From God to Jerry to You reflection explores divine signs, spiritual calling, religious experience, suffering, gratitude, and how God speaks through other people.***Continue the conversation with Ultimate Questions on calling, divine guidance, and how we recognize what is ours to do:https://substack.com/@ultimatequestions***Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue.

What if God's invitations rarely arrive as explanations?What if they come as images, stirrings, symbols, recurring questions, and living metaphors that quietly ask us to pay attention?In this episode of The Heartlifter Way, Janell Rardon explores why discernment begins not with certainty, but with noticing. Drawing from the unexpected wisdom of a moonflower vine growing in her backyard garden, Janell reflects on the difference between explanation and metaphor—and why the soul often learns through symbols long before it understands through words.Together we'll explore:• Why discernment starts with noticing• The difference between explanation and metaphor• How God often speaks through recurring images, invitations, and patternsThe Four Birth Season Questions for spiritual discernment:What keeps returning?What gentle nudges am I experiencing?What sensations and feelings am I noticing in my body?What is becoming clearer?If you've sensed something stirring beneath the surface of your life but can't quite explain it yet, this conversation is for you.Because sometimes the sacred arrives as a metaphor before it becomes a direction.And sometimes God's clearest invitations begin as a quiet stirring that becomes impossible to ignore.Take a deep breath. Slow down. Notice what is taking shape.The moonflower may have more to teach us than we realize.

When corruption and darkness seem to be in control, we may find it hard to hear and see God. Together, we can learn where to look for God and discover hope even when life's situations seem hopelessly unjust and bleak, as in the stories of Israel, the high priest Eli, Eli's corrupt sons, and Samuel.

This conversation I have with my friend Laurie Shopland opened with a prayer, and what surfaced in that prayer set the tone for everything that followed. Laurie's story includes a stranger who walked up to her husband in a church lobby one Sunday, told him he was actually there to talk to her, and delivered a word so specific that she's read it at least once a week ever since. In this conversation, we trace how she got from ritual religion and real anger at God... to 4:30am morning prayer with her husband, a three-year TED Talk journey through two rejections, and what it looks like when God starts inviting you further out than feels financially safe.Laurie Shopland is a coach and speaker from Canada who works at the intersection of emotional wellbeing, identity, and truth-telling. She recently gave a TEDx Talk on truth-telling and the misuse of non-disclosure agreements, and she's on a path of what she describes as being a lighthouse to the nation.Here's what we explore:▪️ Why we discount what God says to us through other people... even when it's exactly right▪️ Laurie's faith story: from a denomination of ritual (not relationship), through loss and anger at God, to a Holy Spirit moment she didn't go looking for▪️ What secular corporate coaching looks like when you know every moment of peace is the Holy Spirit▪️ The fear underneath the invitation to bring God more explicitly into her work, and the financial scarcity sitting under that▪️ Three years and two rejections: the TED Talk journey and why the timing couldn't have been any earlier▪️ Learning to stop softening what you hear from God and just stand in it▪️ A vision of a clock and a little toy, and why those two images have become her daily anchorChapters:00:00 Intro and Introducing Laurie Shopland02:06 Opening Prayer03:32 The Vision Story: When God Confirmed Himself Through a Stranger09:41 Laurie's Faith Story: From Ritual Religion and Anger to a Holy Spirit Encounter13:58 Helping People Find Peace in Corporate Settings Without Saying "God"17:15 The Fear of Going Further With God-Language at Work20:41 Three Years, Two Rejections, and the Perfect Timing of a TED Talk27:20 What Daily Listening to God Actually Looks Like31:05 Learning to Speak With Authority About What You Hear From God40:50 The Clock and the Stillness: Trusting God's TimingIf something in this conversation landed for you, I'd just love for you to sit with it... and notice what God might want you to receive from it.

Gospel Scripture: (all NIV) Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.” Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
This portion of Paul's letter is specifically addressed to the Jewish members of the churches in Rome. He is explaining to them a spiritual truth based on their common experience as Jews in reading and trying to obey the Law of Moses (Genesis through Deuteronomy). Today two thousand years later as we listen in on that conversation, it's easy to miss how it applies to us. But it does apply. In fact, Paul is talking about an area of relationship with God in which we all struggle. There is an odd phenomenon we observe in ourselves. When God speaks to us, whether through His written Word, or by the inner voice of the Holy Spirit, or prophetically through another human vessel, there can be an initial, momentary flash of stubborn resistance even though we may be certain we just heard from Him. As a born-again believer I love Him and have made a sincere, general commitment to follow Him in every way. Yet there's something about His specific ways of doing things that runs counter to the way I would expect or prefer to do them. Often, no almost always, when God speaks some kind of command to me, I find my first reaction is to argue with Him. My emotional response, if put into words, might be summarized as, "Oh no! You've got to be kidding!" This passage helps to explain why I react that way, and that insight is essential for me if I am going to let God train me to become like His Son.

Submit a Question or CommentIn this verse-by-verse study of Job 36, Reasoning Through the Bible follows Elihu as he shifts the focus away from man-centered thinking and back onto the character of God. While Job and his friends were often preoccupied with human suffering from a human angle, Elihu gives a different perspective: God speaks in our affliction and teaches us through suffering. This session explores why so much modern Bible teaching becomes overly focused on what people can get from God rather than who God is in His nature. Job 36 pushes in the opposite direction. Elihu speaks about God's justice, power, mercy, wisdom, and greatness, and shows that true spiritual depth begins with theology proper — the study of God Himself. The episode also addresses the difference between outward religion and a renewed heart, why the Word of God renews the mind, how God delivers people in suffering rather than always from suffering, why the health and wealth gospel fails, and why no human being has grounds to judge God. The chapter closes with Elihu describing storms, rain, thunder, and lightning as testimonies to the greatness of the unsearchable God. Topics in this episode include: Job 36 explained God speaks in suffering theology proper God's character and nature renewed heart and renewed mind the failure of the health and wealth gospel who are we to judge God what we can know about God God's greatness in creation Reasoning Through the Bible is a verse-by-verse Bible teaching ministry committed to careful exposition, biblical context, and faithful application.Support the showThank you for listening!!

In Genesis 46, Jacob is about to leave everything familiar behind—but before he moves, something powerful happens: God speaks. After what feels like a long silence, God calls out to Jacob in the night: “Jacob, Jacob… Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt.” (Genesis 46:2–3) This moment reminds us that God may seem silent—but He is never absent. And when He speaks, it is always right on time. -Do you want to be an active member of 21c Moses? Then, consider becoming a 21c Moses Patreon!

Genesis 1:26-27 God Speaks About Himself in the Plural It’s a small detail, but it makes you stop and think: “Let us make… in our image.” From the very beginning, God speaks of himself in the plural. This is not confusion or contradiction. It is a quiet glimpse into the mystery Christians later confess in more detail. The one true God is triune: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Here, already in creation, the triune God is at work together. And what is the result of this divine counsel? Humanity. You were not an after-thought or an accident. You were created intentionally, personally, and wonderfully. The triune God crafted human beings in his own image, capable of knowing him, reflecting his holiness, and living in perfect relationship with him and with one another. But when we look at ourselves and our world, something feels off. The image is cracked and distorted. Sin has broken what God made perfect. Instead of reflecting God’s holiness, we often reflect selfishness, pride, and fear. Instead of living in harmony, we experience division and pain. Yet the triune God did not abandon what he made. The Father sent his Son into the world. Jesus Christ, the eternal Son, is called “the image of the invisible God” (Colossians 1:15). Where we have failed to reflect God, he does so perfectly. He lives the life we could not live and dies the death we deserved, restoring what was broken. And the Holy Spirit continues God’s creative work even now. Through the gospel, he renews hearts and reshapes lives, restoring the image of God within us. What was shattered is being made whole again. So, when you hear God say, “Let us make,” remember that this same triune God is still speaking and still working. You are not forgotten or without purpose. You were created by God, redeemed by God, and are being renewed by God. Prayer: Thank you, triune God, for your continuing work in me. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.
