Why I Believe - Even Though We Can't Hear God

[@LorieBrumfield]

Don't you just LOVE how God uses people to randomly say the EXACTLY thing you need to hear! It's one of those things where we just KNOW it couldn't be anyone one but God moving in your life! LOVE IT!

[@lluviana2893]

I just commented a minute ago!!! I love how he works for our Good.😍

[@zachd.carnes2289]

I've been dealing with a lot of spiritual doubt lately. And I did truly need this video. Thank you!

[@FarAwayDistance]

I totally understand and I have been there! Thank YOU!

[@Maarten927]

A painting is proof of a painter just like creation is proof for a creator. We are finding nano machines and factories in cells and they are given commands by a 4 digit code called the DNA code which has many of the same design strategies we use in computers. Bill Gates even said: "DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created." All these things point to an intelligent creator, because scientists know that any code that carries commands and instructions comes from intelligence. There is a lot more evidence that there is a creator. If someone wants more evidence then just ask.

[@Maarten927]

***** Ok how much evidence do you want? Because I have mountains of evidence... and what kind of evidence do you want do you want direct evidence, indirect evidence, scientific evidence etc?

[@Maarten927]

***** OK give me your email it will be easier for me to send lots of evidence

[@Maarten927]

***** Ok I sent you a starter :) hope you got it

[@rmb6864]

Yes God's voice in us is seems like the loudest silence! Great video!

[@ArielleDatnoff]

I love how you put that, it's so true! =)

[@bernard.rosario.2013]

And yet, I can tell you that the Spirit of the Lord seeks to reveal himself, even by audible voice--as I myself witnessed just a couple of months ago.

[@LightningSonic]

The voice in the back of one's mind you speak of, I've heard it before too. When I quited my soul before God and asked him to speak his will into my life I left the prayer with a kind of "Keep doing what you're doing [pursuing God] and be faithful." That message was confirmed to me by a sister (LoveKeilahJ) who uploaded a video super fast after that with the title reading something like "Don't Doubt the Voice of God". God bless you all.

[@alishajames4969]

With creation I always challenge people to think of the purpose of life. Everything in our world has a purpose to it so why wouldn't our life have a purpose. I love it when I go to a church I have never been to and the preacher says something specific to what I or my family is dealing with. For example: my uncle is the preacher of my church I attend right now and my mom (his sister) is a Sunday school teacher. My mom has been feeling like she is being called elsewhere but she isn't sure and is struggling with the comments when she mentioned way back that she thought about leaving our church. So, we went to a new church, during the sermon the speaker (He wasn't the pastor He was sharing his testimony) said something along the lines of following God and what He calls you to do no matter what other people said and then He said …. "even if your brother is the preacher" Those words hit me hard. This speaker didn't know anything about us and this was one of those moments when I knew God was speaking. He is so cool!

[@KellyCaroliniB]

♥ nothing like personal and intimate moments with God to build up our trust in Him. Thanks for sharing this so honestly, Becca!

[@oliviacarternutt5311]

check out and sub to my channel! love!!

[@olivia4400]

I love your sweet spirit Becca and your willingness to share your faith online. I'm 19, and hearing someone close to my age speak about God is very encouraging. It's important to note though that God speaks to us primarily through His Word. I know you know this but I think it needs to be emphasized. Just a friendly suggestion :)

[@XxMrDAVIDA7xX]

Woah! I can hear God not often but I do hear him speak clearly, sometimes it's one word, other times its convictions. There are times he speaks and it often happens that when he does there is a word spoken by a brother or sister that is the exact same thing. But I never heard his voice until I received the Holy Spirit.

[@Olivia-sc3ms]

God led me to this video for I too struggle with severe acne I know God is healing me but I get frustrated some times. I also Have been struggling with testing God, God bless you and thank you for making these videos! 💕

[@GodsChildJenny1979]

That's the Holy Spirit talking to you, guiding you. Amen!

[@yumdonuts]

great video , its funny because im defiantly one of those people that need to here certain things from GOD....then you upload a video talking about it....GOD is so good....thanks for your hard work on your videos too Becca!!! GOD bless you Doll 💕

[@FarAwayDistance]

SO so cool!! :) Thank YOU so much! x

[@chimnonso1]

I love this! I've been going through struggles with my faith and I've felt I'm not sure why I believe and why I should believe. But this is a reminder of who God is to me.

[@LightningSonic]

If you're not sure that you can believe in Jesus Christ, please also see that Jesus always pointed back to the evidence of his miracles for people to believe. _Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else _*_believe on account of the works themselves_*_._ (John 14:11) See apologetics to become grounded more in the truth of God. J. Warner Wallace, Ravi Zacharias, James White, to get you started. I recommend James White's presentation "The Reliability of the New Testament". It's a video on youtube. There's really an overflowing amount of proofs for the Bible. If you have American NetFlix I think you can watch 'Patterns of Evidence' for free. It's a documentary about proof for the Exodus. God bless

[@countryroadcz1]

Thank you so much Becca for living with God and letting Him use you in such an amazing way. Much love!!!!

[@MotavatorBelieber]

Hey Becca! So I've been majorly stressed with college applications including the one to my dream college. I'm a couple steps behind in the process due to the waiting of transcripts to be processed and other minor details. This evening I got what felt like almost a punch in the face. It was the idea that none of the stuff I wanted was going to play through. That I wasn't going to get into my dream college and everything else from there was going to fall apart and become the complete opposite of what I wanted. I had the biggest breakdown ever and began to write some really negative things in my journal and then I decided to play some worship music and pray. I prayed that I would find comfort if what I want doesn't fit with His plans and then also I prayed for it to be how I would like it to go, only if it was meant to be. It was eye opening to know that for once I knew what I wanted and I admitted how terrified I was going to be and scared if what seemed to be familiar now to me was going to flip if it doesn't work out. I just wanted to share for those that are going through my situation and also for you to pray for me that whatever is in His plan is for the best and that I'm going to get through this rough patch. Thanks always❤️

[@Andrea-fe6dy]

Thank you so much Becca for making these videos. It's great to see that young people (like us) in today's society are so devoted to God. From some of the things showing on TV and some music being made today, it would seem that some of the rich, are running the world against God's wishes; so it's always a breath of fresh air to close all that out and join you and like minded people on KZbin. I don't judge I pray for everyone. I was thinking of when God says to love everyone and I had a moment when I heard God's voice in my heart saying 'Love don't Judge' - I thought it was great and wrote it down. I got back from my first confessional a few hours ago and I feel such peace :) (I'm Greek Orthodox and most of the church service is in Ancient Greek - I speak modern Greek) and I thought i'd find out if I could go to Confession in a Roman Catholic church as I'd understand what was being said. The pastor I spoke with asked me to pray to God whilst he found out from a higher pastor in Westminster, London where I live but he was 95% sure I wouldn't be allowed as I'm not Roman Catholic. I prayed and knew I my heart that God doesn't discriminate... Well the pastor called back and told me I could because I'd asked. God listens to us all :) God bless you. Andrea xxxxxxx

[@WalkingbytheSpiritAlways]

The still, small voice is the best way to hear from God. He tells us what we need to do for that day in quiet time in the morning. Most of the time though, He is speaking and we just go with the hunch that it is Him. For instance, I was on the phone with a girl in the UK, and the song Windy popped into my mind, so I said it. It was her mother's name. The first time God spoke to me on 6/28/2004, it wasn't a good thing, but it was for my good. He told me my husband was having an affair with my best friend at church. It ended up it was true, and for nine months I was suicidal, but God showed me that I wasn't born again. I repented and got the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and ever since He speaks to me every day. Acts 2:17-18 women will prophesy too, so I have been on YT for three years telling people that Jesus is coming in the rapture. I don't see that you have any videos about the end times, so I pray that God will show you what is about to happen. Maybe your video about the lukewarm Christians is that you know they are about to be left behind. God bless.

[@franklinkrocker4902]

When i was in the 6th grade i accepted god into my heart. From that point on i knew he would hold me accountable for my actions. Well now im 19, and over the years i have drifted away from him. In my heart i never truly denied that he existed but i have gotten good at ignoring him. Recently i have had stuff happen in my life that has drawn me closer to God yet i know that i am no were near close to bieng the man God has planned for me to be. I just have to say that you are truly inspiring. I am amazed by your faith in God. Keep doing what your doing.

[@maryimhogiemhe4408]

Your videos are just so inspirational and I'm just so happy to know this channel

[@FarAwayDistance]

Thank you so much Mary!!

[@jesslui4056]

For a little while, I felt that I was drifting away from God. School and homework were making me feel stressed, so I pushed God to the side. Thank you so much for this video because it made me see again that God is at work in even the smallest of ways. It inspired me to do quiet times and connect with people again. Thank you! You are such an inspiration.

[@michaylalovelygal]

Thank you sooooo much Becca for this video!! I can't help but feel so encouraged whenever I watch one of your videos. The way God is using you is so beautiful 😘

[@megansluder7006]

Hey Bec! I've had a ton of trouble the past few months dealing with my faith and keeping a loving relationship with God as my center focus. He has basically been just a part of my life instead of the part. Thank you for this video because I can relate to you so much with my acne and my walk with Christ! I needed this video today in particular, and I just happened to come across it on my board. TYSM :)

[@FarAwayDistance]

Thank YOU so much!!! 🤗

[@hildegunnhaugan3434]

Thank you for sharing! Was thinking ´bout why [I feel] everyone else hear God, and I don´t. Not that I was angry or doubting or anything, but I think God is a personal God, and He speaks and shows Himself to people differently. Thank you, Jesus, for letting this amazing girl speak confirming Your message to me and all the other people watching this awesome message!

[@iwillsingforthekingonandon8259]

Thank you! This video reminds me of a time when I was in deep depression last Christmas. My mind was thinking a whole lot of negative from lustfulness (I think it was due to my laziness and not eating properly) to meaningless in thinking that I was just going to die and life didn't matter. Then my friend's dad took us to watch a movie (Star Wars The Last Jedi). There was a statement by one of the actors in the movie that read, "That's how we're going to win. Not by fighting what we hate, but saving what we Love." For some of the rest of the movie (we had to leave before it finished) I was thinking in my head, "is this God speaking to me?" I still have the quote saved to my phone this day. We may have left the movie early, but I left with a sense of hope that God is still real and wants me to know something.

[@lalalauren1234]

I love watching your videos. They're so encouraging and filled with love ❤️

[@daughterofchrist5272]

Yeah. I agreed!

[@zoet8180]

Hi Becca!! Love your videos :)) To put everything into short, basically I’ve started a new school and when I joined I didn’t know anyone but even though I’ve been there for a whole term, I still don’t feel completely settled: I don’t seem to have any proper friends who care about me and it is currently the Christmas holidays and I really just want to go back to school with a positive attitude and I really want people to see God’s goodness shine through me. I want God to use me in a way to lead others to Christ and I’ve constantly prayed about it but I just don’t know what further to do. I would really appreciate it if someone could pray for me. Thank yu 💗

[@ArielleDatnoff]

You make me want to write down my deepest thoughts ;) This is one of my favorite videos from you! Wow... I love those testimonies. I've been talking to God SO much more now. It's really comforting sometimes, and others it's really motivating. You can think: In some other type of dimension, God is there. He can sense what I'm thinking about doing and maybe he can hear my thoughts. He is personal to me, and personal to every individual. He is in or around us in one way or another. He is always affecting us, but when we're conscious about it, we make better choices. Btw, congratulations on 8,000 subscribers! When I say that, it's not the fact that you have a bigger fan base, like most people make it out to be. I'm congratulating you on reaching out to so many people and speaking through them like you did to me. You're a great leader, Bex.

I just started a DIY channel very recently. Have a great day!

[@tyler4475]

I believe the title is not completely accurate in a sense. I’ve seen from personal experience and from others that god can CLEARLY speak to you just as you would talk to anyone else. A pastor Dwayne Sherrif talks about this in that he once heard god call his name out in a store and he turned around because he thought someone was talking to him. In my own experience god has yelled at me not to do things or calmly guided me to make a good decision or the sorts, it doesn’t always happen often, but it happens. Audible or otherwise.

[@hazelx1369]

[@bibleburner8426]

You sound just like a muslim friend that I have. He swears that Allah speaks to him and that there are these uncanny coincidences that he attributes to the Islamic god. How do we know which one of you, if either, are experiencing god?

[@Alyssa18633]

Why did Jesus have to die for us though? Like in order to save us? I don't understand that. Sorry I'm not a Christian I'm just trying to understand

[@FarAwayDistance]

Don't apologize! You're totally fine! :) The punishment for turning against God or sin is death, so because of our choice to sin, someone needed to die. God didn't want that to happen, so He Himself chose to be the sacrifice for us. His death satisfied the wrath of God for the punishment we deserved. It was an incredible, selfless act of love. I would love to talk more about this with you if that was confusing, because it totally might be!!

[@Alyssa18633]

FarAwayDistance but why did someone have to die if they did sin? He could've just chosen not to let the punishment be death, then he wouldn't have died. I'm sorry I really don't know anything about it so it's probably dumb but it sounds like he basically killed himself? Like why did he choose to have Jesus killed? It was his choice but I don't understand why??

[@FarAwayDistance]

You're not stupid at all! These are really good questions to be asking. That was the punishment He chose, something we can't really understand. But if Jesus wouldn't have died for us, we would have never been able to understand the depth of God's love for us. That's one of many reasons He died for us.

[@XxMrDAVIDA7xX]

It was necessary because before they used to have to sacrifice an animal to atone for sins, but Jesus was sinless and he didn't deserve to die but he was the ultimate sacrifice once and for all for our sins and as long as we repent and turn to him then his sacrifice will wash us clean.

[@Giga_Pudding]

I'm honestly jealous that you're so close to God.
