God Is Truly Talking to You If . . . (12 Signs)

[@msotrfan1]

Once again, your timing is perfect. I have two jobs, and I asked God specifically for certain details of each job. He gave me every single request, minus a couple details. But guess what, I would have never known that what he gave me instead, was even more perfect than what I asked for indetail previously. I mean, wow! We might know what exactly we desire, and if it's God's will, he will deliver, but he gave be an even better gift, in what he wanted me to do. God is amazing and so good!!!!

[@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger]

Amen! God is good!

Wow, really interesting how everything worked out for you! I'm glad to hear that you feel like you received an even better answer from God than you could have imagined. It just goes to show that His plan is always better than ours!

@@Daily_Christian_Motivation Amen to that! We ask God for prayers to be answered, but sometimes he's like, "Well, okay, and I'll help you achieve that, but I actually want it to play out this way." Thank you so much God! I would have never even imagined the direction in life you put before me instead.

Timely biblical passages Holy Spirit leading in heart 5. Holy Spirit internal discernment about other people 1 John 4:1 6. Conviction about your own sin 7. Biblical revelation and application Ephesians 1:17-18 8. Listening in prayer those who hear the voice of God are those who slow down enough and consistently enough to hear His voice God want us to pour our hearts out to Him but He also wants us to spend just as much time listening to His heart for us and what He wants us to do John 10:27 Circumstances of your life 9.

@@Daily_Christian_Motivation Well, I see Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel as a whole, the story of Israel's rebellion with idolatry, God pours out his wrath on them to purge sin but does not leave them without hope. These four prophets had a focus in their prophecy, they said "Repent the judgment is coming", so Isaiah preached that the judgment was coming but it focused on the mercy of God, Jeremiah focused on the judgment and the wrath of God, Ezekiel focused on in the glory of God since the people had forgotten God and Daniel in the judgment and mercy of God but not only for Israel, for the whole world.

I've been feeling desperate to hear God's voice clearly. What He's saying to me in this part of my life, the road he wants me to take and how to walk that road. I've been struggling to not relapse into a specific addictive sin and it's a burden to feel like I'm being torn from His presence by my weak flesh. To hear God's voice has always been difficult for me; to differentiate between my own vivid imagination and Him. I wish with all my heart to grow in this area but am unsure of what else I can do but read the Bible and pray, but I do not feel like I progress.

[@Daily_Christian_Motivation]

I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling. It sounds like you're doing everything right by reading the Bible and praying, but sometimes it can still be difficult to differentiate between our own thoughts and God's voice. Maybe something you could try is journaling your prayers and thoughts, and then looking back later to see if there are any patterns or common themes. Alternatively, you could try talking to a trusted friend or pastor about your struggles and see if they have any advice. Thank you for sharing and I'll be praying for you.

My grandpa died less than 2 weeks ago, and the assistant manager had no sympathy for me at work. I’ve been looking for another job for awhile, but that solidified that I need to get out of this job. I had an interview today for a job I thought was from God, but I didn’t pass it. I’m so lost and confused. I have no desires or passions to work toward and I don’t understand why God never gave me any.

Sometimes God may give you a desire or passion for something that you weren't interested in before or something you have not much knowledge of. And after some research or trying something out, you may come to really enjoy it or have a newfound love of something. The past couple of years I've been more interested in photography. Years ago I did enjoy using a simple point and shoot camera but was very casual about it. I wasn't a serious photographer then. Now I have a more professional camera, look at videos and books on how to improve, and God willing, I would like to use my photography skills to show everyday life, make people happy, show things others never saw before, possibly make a living off it and not just as a hobby. I enjoy street photography and portraits whenever I can get them. A married couple who are cops just joined my church group; they run a portrait photography business on the side and I would like to get to know them better, learn from them on running a photography business and help each other out. It doesn't look like a coincidence that I met them.

[@baldheadedmonkeyboy2494]

Stop waiting for God to give it to you and go out and get it yourself. Its when we realize that we don't have to rely on anything/one that we make our way in the world. If God wants to help that's even better, but too many people wait for some sign that never comes and then they grow resentful. I am poor, ugly, fat and bald. I have a small %$#@ as well. I could pray for money or to lose weight or grow hair and a larger %$#@, but that wont happen. We are all just little specs of dust to God and we will return to dust from where we came.

I believe God is always talking to us. Most of our questions can be answered by reading his word, prayer and fasting will help our spirit to hear . Jesus is the word, we need to read the word of God to know the Jesus we serve.

I agree with you, I think that God is always talking to us and that we can find answers to our questions by reading His word.

Jesus is the Word and by reading the Bible we can get to know Him better and understand His will for our lives.

[@crunchybroll4731]

I pray that God takes away my unbelief. The problem is, he won't answer my prayers unless I fully believe. I don't think that if he's real he even hears me because I pray every day and none of my prayers including healing for a loved one is answered. I struggle so much with my belief in God.

[@Daily_Christian_Motivation]

I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling with your belief in God. I can relate to how you feel. I have had moments where I have questioned my faith as well.

i currently have two jobs. i work at one of the jobs once a week and five days a week at the other job. i have been offered a full time position at the job i work at once a week which is great!!! but i’m torn because i like the other job i’m working at and don’t really see the need to leave. i’ve been praying that God will lead me down the right path according to His will. God has also led me to read and meditate on Isaiah 64:4 and i’m sure he’s just telling me to wait and while i’m waiting He’s working on my behalf. I know that’s the right thing to do but i’m still stressing about making the right choice which i know shouldn’t be.

God, The Christianity One, is real. He Loves everyone in a fatherly way. (Not prophetic word, I think he want people to do the stuff in this comment) he wants everyone to receive his salvation, He wants everyone to freely obey him and to read the Bible, any real version. And to change your mind that sinning is wrong/bad. And to forsake sinning.

I had a dream few days ago Genesis 2:24 i dream of this twice already along with 1 Corinthians 13: 4-5 and Phil 1: 9-10 Is God telling me to be patient with Love or marriage???🥺🥺🥺

It's great that you are wondering what God might be telling you through these dreams! I would encourage you to keep reading and studying the Bible, and to pray and ask God for wisdom in understanding what He might be telling you. It could be that He is telling you to be patient in regards to love or marriage, or it could be something else entirely. But either way, God's Word is always a good place to start in seeking guidance from Him.

Good morning Mark God bless you today I have one question for you concerning commands and principles in Malachi chapter 3 verses 8 through 12 is that a command or a principle thank you for taking time to answer my questions I know you already have a lot going on

[@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger]

I would say to that specific audience the book was written to, that was a command. For us, it is a principle. Just my thoughts

[@Daily_Christian_Motivation]

Good morning! Thank you for your question. I believe that the commands and principles in Malachi 3:8-12 are both commands and principles. I think that they are commands because they are specific things that we are supposed to do, like bring our tithes and offerings into the storehouse. But I also think they are principles because they are general truths that we should live by, like being obedient to God. I hope that helps!

How can you tell the difference between a command and a principal when you are reading God's word?

[@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger]

Do not lie would be an example of a command. Speak the truth in love would be a principle. It’s clear to know how to not lie. How to speak the truth in love is not so clear and takes wisdom to apply.

[@CircleWedge]

Mark, I like your videos a lot. Edit: this is my issue with point 1: But the Bible has different commands for different categories of people some of the time. What you said is either a generalization or an over simplification? Both? Anyway, some commands (most?) apply to all humans, some don't apply to every human on the planet. Thank you for the work you've done. I'll continue watching now.

[@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger]

I think you are being too legalistic :) Commands are always true and they don't need to be applied like a principle. That was the point. Yes, if you want to be specific there are categories, but did you want me to make a 20 min video explaining all that? I can't go down every rabbit trail :) The simple statement made the general point I intended to make. So yes, a marriage command is not for singles or a command to a pastor is not for congregants, but the statement that they don't need to be applied is true, because principle do need to be applied differently. And in a sense, even if a command does not relate to you, its plain meaning still stands and applies to its intended audience. So, agree to disagree :)

[@christiangibbs391]

Hi Mark, Let me start by saying I appreciate your videos... even if they don't always resonate or I don't always agree... I'm not usually fazed. I just felt to comment.... I don't feel that Ming was having a go at you personally. You're response felt defensive & didn't open up communication or an ability to address his concerns. He complimented you on your videos & acknowledged that some of your videos are pretty generalised. I also don't feel in my spirit that he was being legalistic at all 🤔 I think the issue here is "communication" I believe he's asking for greater indepth content, rather than absolutes. What if you did a 20 minute video? Is that an issue? 🤔 I'm sure a lot of your lectures go for at least an hour, in your "Relationship University". Unfortunately a lot of teachers get stuck by their "cognitive knowledge", rather than the reality we have all had many different experiences, upbringings, world views & we all learn & perceive things differently. Love gets talked about a lot, but unfortunately not a lot of patience, understanding & compassion is always expressed 🥺 I feel that could have been a great opportunity to expand on your video, & also to be humble enough to understand where he was coming from, which in turn would help understand your audience & potential audience better. Iron sharpening iron, to embrace differences, rather than the only conclusion being "agree to disagree". Even if you disagree.... which is cool 😎 Is Holy Spirit giving you revelation on more effective ways to communicate what God has put on your heart to share? 🙏 That to me is a prime example of the lack of unity & division in the body of Christ, because of an inability to be able to effectively communicate & work through "challenging issues" in a mature way. I want to reinforce..... You are doing a great job Mark Respect 🙏 Keep up the good work mate 😇 God Bless

As someone who was involved in the service. I would recommend really praying on this. In my opinion with most people I served with. God has wired people with willingness to sacrifice for others. My experience is time in the military. But you have to have an honest self-evaluation of your willingness to give up your life for others. If you aren't prepared for that ( which is ok) Then you can become a danger to others or you'll hate the profession. Take care and God bless!
