0:38
Speaker 1: I could prove in the scripture. Through the scripture. Amen.

Speaker 1: There's no other way to prove it right other than
0:43
Speaker 1: God's word, but hearing from God. This one is called
0:47
Speaker 1: hearing from God. Hearing from God is about recognizing His
0:53
Speaker 1: presence and guidance in your life through the Holy Spirit
0:59

1:02
Speaker 1: about recognizing His presence and guidance in your life through

1:57
Speaker 1: that tries to speak into your life, you won't go
2:00
Speaker 1: for it. We will have not itching ears, but we
2:03
Speaker 1: will have ears tuned into the frequency of God because
2:07
Speaker 1: we recognize his presence and we're allowing God to work
2:10
Speaker 1: through us. Amen. And we know now that Holy Spirit
2:15

2:49

3:58
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit. God, let them sense the presence of who

Speaker 1: share this to your group page. I really am grateful
6:30
Speaker 1: for that, and man, I don't take that lightly because
6:32
Speaker 1: I know it could be dangerous for allowing other people
6:36
Speaker 1: to be on your group pages. And that's why I
6:39
Speaker 1: thank you so much for trusting the world that's coming
6:42
Speaker 1: through someone's ink and celebrated network and your brother Sam
6:45

7:14
Speaker 1: Good morning to you as well. God bless you. Amen.
7:17
Speaker 1: Is good to see you in the morning. Deal with
7:18
Speaker 1: with us. So let's go forward, man, Let's see what
7:22
Speaker 1: the Word has for us today. We're gonna hear from
7:24
Speaker 1: God right now, real quick. And people might be saying, well,
7:27
Speaker 1: that's that's mysticol. God doesn't speak audibly anymore. Well you're
7:30
Speaker 1: gonna hear, well, you're gonna hear an audible voice reading
7:33
Speaker 1: the word, which is the Word, is the is the
7:36
Speaker 1: will of God. We gonna hear his will spoken Amen,
7:40
Speaker 1: into our spirit, and the Holy Spirit is gonna remind
7:43
Speaker 1: us of what we just heard. We're gonna feel his presence,
7:46
Speaker 1: gonna census presence. Holy Spirit is gonna guide us. Amen.
7:49
Speaker 1: We're gonna hear his voice and we're gonna move forward.
7:52
Speaker 1: God still speaks and we're gonna hear from God today. Amen.
7:55
Speaker 1: I really truly believe that it's not mystical, it's not
7:58
Speaker 1: make believe. This is true, this is fact, This is
8:01
Speaker 1: all from God. Amen. Let me go for it. Let
8:05
Speaker 1: me get this ready for the screen for those who
8:07
Speaker 1: are just listening. Amen, Thank you so much for listening.
8:09
Speaker 1: Audio is powerful, right, you hear the word, you apply
8:13
Speaker 1: the word. Amen. And how would anybody know about the
8:16
Speaker 1: Gospel or the message of God if it's no preacher,
8:20
Speaker 1: there's no person that's speaking it out. I think it
8:22
Speaker 1: would be impossible. Right. You might be saying, well, what
8:25
Speaker 1: about deaf people. Deaf people have brail, they have ways
8:28
Speaker 1: to communicate to get the Word in their lives. And
8:31
Speaker 1: also I believe a deaf person who has Holy Spirit
8:35
Speaker 1: God in them, I believe they're hearing a word. I
8:39
Speaker 1: believe they're hearing a word, Amen, because God is close
8:42
Speaker 1: and keeping them close to them. Amen. He's keeping himself
8:47
Speaker 1: close to all of us, hearing from God. Hearing from God.
8:51
Speaker 1: Let's go for it. Amen. Yeah, that's a ear after
8:57
Speaker 1: you know the word hearing. I try to, you know,
8:59
Speaker 1: jazz up a little bit. Hope it worked out John
9:03
Speaker 1: sixteen thirteen. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth,
9:10
Speaker 1: he will guide you into all truth. He will not
9:14
Speaker 1: speak on his own. That he will not speak on
9:18
Speaker 1: his own, but he will speak what he hears and
9:23
Speaker 1: will declare to you the things that are coming. And
9:27
Speaker 1: I don't know in these versions, I don't know what version.
9:29
Speaker 1: I think this is the and I believe I don't
9:32
Speaker 1: know why they always put it when they speak about God,
9:35
Speaker 1: where they put heat in a lowercase. I think that's
9:38
Speaker 1: insult things to God, Amen, or soult thing to me.
9:40
Speaker 1: I'm insulted. It should always be a capital age. I
9:43
Speaker 1: didn't catch that until I'm looking at it now. I
9:45
Speaker 1: would have literally edited those he but when he I
9:49
Speaker 1: would have put that he in capitalized letters. Amen. The
9:52
Speaker 1: Spirit of truth, he will guide you into all truth.
9:57
Speaker 1: So the spirit moves right the spirit speaks right, and
10:04
Speaker 1: what we hear and what he's declaring things that are coming,
10:10
Speaker 1: we believe it. So who's speaking right here? He will
10:16
Speaker 1: not speak on his own? Who is he? Holy Spirit?
10:19
Speaker 1: Who is Holy Spirit? Spirit of truth? God? Amen? And
10:26
Speaker 1: I'm not losing semantics or anything. You could take John
10:29
Speaker 1: chapter sixteen. Read the whole chapter for yourself to make
10:32
Speaker 1: sure home accountable and that I'm not taking this out
10:34
Speaker 1: of context. But the key word is here. The key
10:38
Speaker 1: word is he will not speak. Speak is the key
10:42
Speaker 1: word on his own. And you can look it up
10:46
Speaker 1: and greet. You could do what you want, Amen, and
10:48
Speaker 1: you'll find that this is an action word that he's
10:52
Speaker 1: doing something. He will speak what he hears. If someone is
10:58
Speaker 1: hearing something, Amen, that means someone's being spoken to. Right,
11:04
Speaker 1: you're hearing this voice, so you're hearing it through your
11:07
Speaker 1: irrigate and you're soaking it up in your spirit. And
11:11
Speaker 1: then the Bible says he will speak what he hears
11:16
Speaker 1: and will declare to you the things that are coming.
11:21
Speaker 1: It's called prophetic utterance, it's called prophecy. It's called things
11:25
Speaker 1: that are coming that God knows, and he's letting us know.
11:29
Speaker 1: You ever got warned by God. Right, God warns you
11:33
Speaker 1: a man, How does he warn you? Sometimes he lets
11:37
Speaker 1: you know, don't go that way, don't go this way,
11:41
Speaker 1: keep on going the other way. Now you hear his voice,
11:45
Speaker 1: he sense his presence because you know he's real. This
11:49
Speaker 1: is not hocus pocus, ladies and gentlemen. It does not
11:51
Speaker 1: make believe. We serve a living, holy, righteous, loving God.
11:56
Speaker 1: He loves us so much that he doesn't want us
11:59
Speaker 1: to stay in dark places, doesn't want us to go
12:03
Speaker 1: to dangerous places on his watch. Why would he do that?
12:08
Speaker 1: There's a lot of wis right in life. Why did
12:11
Speaker 1: this have to happen in my life? Why did that
12:14
Speaker 1: happen to? You know? I lost my pops when I
12:16
Speaker 1: was fifteen. The first thing I asked at fifteen years
12:20
Speaker 1: old was why? Why? God? Why did you take my dad?
12:23
Speaker 1: A lot of why questions? People don't be ashamed of
12:26
Speaker 1: asking God why a man. Sometimes he'll let you know why,
12:30
Speaker 1: other times he won't. But I know for sure that
12:32
Speaker 1: he'll be with you. He'll be close to you, he'll
12:35
Speaker 1: be living in you. If you receive his gospel message,
12:39
Speaker 1: if you ask Jesus to forgive you, he'll renew you
12:41
Speaker 1: restore you, redeem you. He will speak, and the stranger's
12:44
Speaker 1: voice you won't follow. It's just that simple, Amen, It's
12:47
Speaker 1: just that simple velvet. If God bless you, my sister,
12:50
Speaker 1: and my friend, God bless you as well. Welcome back
12:53
Speaker 1: to the morning. Devo's good to see you, my sister.
12:55
Speaker 1: So let's go. Let me go onto my notes real
12:59
Speaker 1: quick before I mess this all up. A man, I
13:02
Speaker 1: got a little bit of time here left. Go to
13:06
Speaker 1: my notes. There's so much here, and I don't want
13:09
Speaker 1: to get off topic here. Man, something just dropped in
13:14
Speaker 1: my spirit. But I believe the Lord said nope, not yet, okay.
13:18
Speaker 1: So hearing from God is about recognizing his presence, right.
13:22
Speaker 1: You ever heard people say I feel the presence of God.
13:25
Speaker 1: Praise God. If they are born again, praise God. They
13:29
Speaker 1: feel Holy Spirit moving inside of them, Praise the Lord. Sometimes,
13:33
Speaker 1: if I'm honest, I don't feel anything. I could be
13:36
Speaker 1: in an environment of a community of believers and they're
13:40
Speaker 1: sensing besides I sentence the Holy Ghost, and sometimes I'm like,
13:44
Speaker 1: I don't feel anything. You don't have to force a feeling. Amen.
13:47
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, faith is not based on feelings.
13:49
Speaker 1: Faith is based on truth. So I know the truth
13:53
Speaker 1: of the Lord. Sometimes I don't feel the truth being
14:00
Speaker 1: present in the space I'm in at that moment, and
14:05
Speaker 1: I think that's okay. I don't think we have to
14:08
Speaker 1: always have a word. I don't think we'll always have
14:10
Speaker 1: to feel the presence of God. I know he's always
14:13
Speaker 1: with us. Sometimes he's silent, sometimes he's not speaking at
14:18
Speaker 1: the moment. Another thing, when people say the Lord told me,
14:23
Speaker 1: I'll back up. I respect that. But if the Lord
14:26
Speaker 1: is telling you things every single day, praise God, share it, amen.
14:30
Speaker 1: But it needs to line up with his word, doesn't it.
14:32
Speaker 1: Bishop Patrick Munya munyuall and listening from Kenya. God bless God.
14:39
Speaker 1: Bless you, Bishop from Kenya, God bless you. Thank you
14:42
Speaker 1: so much for joining us. We're honored to have you,
14:46
Speaker 1: so thank you for coming to the morning Devo. So
14:49
Speaker 1: when the Holy Spirit communicates with us, he communicates with
14:57
Speaker 1: us in a personal and intimate way. It's a beautiful thing.
15:01
Speaker 1: When we are aligned with the words, a beautiful thing.
15:04
Speaker 1: When we're listening to the words, a beautiful thing. When
15:06
Speaker 1: we're applying to words, a beautiful thing. When we're seeing
15:08
Speaker 1: God's Holy spirit and action, it's a beautiful thing. When
15:11
Speaker 1: people are getting inspired, they're getting hit by the Holy
15:14
Speaker 1: Ghost in a good way, touched by the Holy Ghost. Right,
15:19
Speaker 1: it's in a good way. Amen, we see it, and
15:22
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful thing. When you hear from God, Amen,
15:26
Speaker 1: Hearing from God means that we are aligned up with
15:29
Speaker 1: his word. He's speaking his word. His word is truth
15:32
Speaker 1: every day. It's prophetic, not putthetic, but prophetic every day.
15:38
Speaker 1: He's guiding us every day. He will never leave us
15:40
Speaker 1: nor forsake us to the words says, and he still speaks.
15:43
Speaker 1: Can you hear his voice, Amen, I can hear his voice.
15:47
Speaker 1: And people might be saying that that you're eating too
15:49
Speaker 1: much jung food at night is something. But I hear
15:51
Speaker 1: him audibly. Sometimes people say God doesn't speak audibly no more. Well,
15:55
Speaker 1: that might be your current experience right now. But sometimes
16:00
Speaker 1: I hear God audibly, and as I wake up, and
16:02
Speaker 1: sometimes in the middle of the night and I hear
16:04
Speaker 1: his voice a whisper, he says, Sam, and I wake
16:09
Speaker 1: up and I know it's him. So here's some key
16:14
Speaker 1: points to consider. Just consider this Holy Spirit. First of all,
16:20
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit. He speaks to a Holy Spirit right
16:23
Speaker 1: when you're born again, you have Holy Spirit living inside
16:25
Speaker 1: of you. So, as believers, we have Holy Spirit living
16:29
Speaker 1: within us, guiding us in all truth. Holy Spirit doesn't lie.
16:34
Speaker 1: He speaks truth, and a lot of times the truth
16:38
Speaker 1: seemingly hurts right when we hear the truth. We were
16:41
Speaker 1: convicted for our wrongdoings sometimes, and that's Holy Spirit loving
16:46
Speaker 1: us so much that he does want us to stay
16:49
Speaker 1: in darkness. He doesn't want us to stay in a lie.
16:52
Speaker 1: He wants us to stay in the light and in
16:54
Speaker 1: the truth we John fourteen, verse number twenty six. I'm
16:59
Speaker 1: just like the scripture John fourteen twenty six. Jesus is true,
17:07
Speaker 1: reminding us. Holy Spirit reminds us that jesus teachings are
17:11
Speaker 1: true and that Jesus is God already. Read John sixteen thirteen.
17:18
Speaker 1: The internal guidance. You have a GPS in your car, great, Amen,
17:23
Speaker 1: we have a GPS living inside of us. Amen. It's
17:28
Speaker 1: God's positioning system. He wants us to go in the
17:30
Speaker 1: direction that He wants us to go in. So God
17:34
Speaker 1: communicates with us. And when he communicates with us, he's
17:39
Speaker 1: aligning us with our new identity, now with our old self.
17:43
Speaker 1: You know who's guiding our old self? The flesh and
17:45
Speaker 1: the devil and the world's system. That's why we get
17:48
Speaker 1: into the pride of life, the lust of our eyes,
17:50
Speaker 1: because the flesh is doing its own thing. The flesh
17:54
Speaker 1: wants to do his own thing in our lives. We
17:56
Speaker 1: fight against the flesh. We war against the flesh because
17:59
Speaker 1: the flesh is against the spirit. So yeah, it's a battle.
18:02
Speaker 1: So welcome to the battlefield. Amen. You might be saying, man,
18:05
Speaker 1: I didn't sign up for this. Listen once you said
18:09
Speaker 1: Jesus save me, rescue me. Amen. Now you're in the
18:12
Speaker 1: battle of your life. But we win. Who wants to
18:15
Speaker 1: be on the winning team. I'm on the winning scene.
18:17
Speaker 1: Let's get on it. Let's get on the winning team.
18:19
Speaker 1: Hebrews shot the eight verse number ten. I'll just say
18:22
Speaker 1: it another scripture, Hebrews eight and ten. Our new identity
18:26
Speaker 1: in Christ means we have a new heart. We have
18:28
Speaker 1: a heart of God now, and we have the mine
18:31
Speaker 1: of Christ. No one could take that away from us.
18:34
Speaker 1: We might act differently sometimes and might not act the
18:38
Speaker 1: part or be the part that we're supposed to be. Amen.
18:41
Speaker 1: But there's forgiveness, there's grace, Amen, And I'm not going
18:45
Speaker 1: to say that you keep on sinning to receive more grace.
18:49
Speaker 1: All I'm saying is that there is forgiveness and there
18:51
Speaker 1: is grace, and God will speak that into your life individually. Amen.
18:56
Speaker 1: You don't need a preacher, you don't need an evangelist
18:58
Speaker 1: to tell you that God will forgive you. I'm gonna
19:00
Speaker 1: tell you. God does forgive you. Amen. And when you
19:03
Speaker 1: have a personal relationship with Him, you already know that
19:06
Speaker 1: He forgives, He shows grace, He has mercy. Amen. He
19:09
Speaker 1: loves us so much that he wants us to move forward.
19:13
Speaker 1: He doesn't want us to stay stuck in anything that
19:16
Speaker 1: is not giving him glory and honor. He doesn't want
19:18
Speaker 1: us to stay stuck in anything that's not pleasing to him.
19:21
Speaker 1: He doesn't want us to stay stuck in anything that
19:24
Speaker 1: glorifies the devil. Especially, He doesn't want us to get
19:27
Speaker 1: in those spaces. He wants us to move forward. Amen.
19:31
Speaker 1: And with a community and with support, we could get
19:34
Speaker 1: this done in a great way, in a great way.
19:38
Speaker 1: So he speaks by way for Holy Spirit. Number two,
19:41
Speaker 1: he speaks through scripture. The Bible is the first and
19:46
Speaker 1: primary way that God speaks to us. Amen. We hear
19:49
Speaker 1: him through the Word, is filled with his promises which
19:54
Speaker 1: are all a men, yes and amen. His promises wisdom,
20:00
Speaker 1: He provides everything we need to live this life out
20:03
Speaker 1: in godliness and righteousness. You can see that in Second
20:05
Speaker 1: Peter chapter one, verse three. So when you read and
20:11
Speaker 1: you meditate, and you pay attention to God's word, you
20:15
Speaker 1: get to hear his voice more clearly and clearly speaking
20:18
Speaker 1: to your spirit, speaking to your soul. Amen, He'll remind
20:21
Speaker 1: you of his goodness, his grace's mercy, his power, his authority,
20:26
Speaker 1: and then he'll identify you. I'm only going to identify
20:29
Speaker 1: myself the way God identifies me. Amen. I'm not gonna
20:33
Speaker 1: identify myself as anything else than what God says I am.
20:37
Speaker 1: And I hope you do the same. A man enough
20:39
Speaker 1: is enough with his cliches. I'm saved, but I'm still
20:44
Speaker 1: God still dealing with me. So in that area you know, no,
20:48
Speaker 1: give him your life a living sacrifice Romans chapter twelve. Right,
20:53
Speaker 1: So as you read, you meditating our scripture, holy Spirit
20:56
Speaker 1: will illuminate, shine brightly, shine the light on the meaning
21:01
Speaker 1: and relevance of your life. Then, amazing, when God shines
21:06
Speaker 1: his bright light, we have a blazing light of Christ's
21:09
Speaker 1: living inside of us. Anywhere. That's why haven't you noticed
21:12
Speaker 1: you go to certain places and they be like something
21:14
Speaker 1: different about you. You're not even saying nothing. I'm like yeah,
21:18
Speaker 1: in your mind you can say, well, it's the light
21:20
Speaker 1: of Christ, and ain't My light is the light of
21:21
Speaker 1: Christ shining through me by way of Holy Spirit. And
21:24
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit wants to reach every single soul. Amen, Jesus said,
21:28
Speaker 1: I wish that numb perish, but everyone have everlasting life.
21:32
Speaker 1: That's the Lord's wish. That's our wish too. So Number one,
21:36
Speaker 1: God speaks to the Holy Spirit. Number two, God speaks
21:38
Speaker 1: to a scripture. Number three, he gives us new desires.
21:42
Speaker 1: Haven't you noticed that the things that you wanted to
21:44
Speaker 1: do so strongly are getting lesser and lesser and lesser
21:48
Speaker 1: as you grow in the knowledge of the Lord. As
21:50
Speaker 1: you read his word, applies word, allow him to speak
21:53
Speaker 1: to you. Listen to what he's saying, Amen, and do
21:55
Speaker 1: what he says. Your new desires start popping up, and
21:59
Speaker 1: you start knowing, a, Man, I don't do this anymore.
22:02
Speaker 1: You'll be like, Man, I had this habit. You never
22:04
Speaker 1: break this habit. Then you start noticing as you grow
22:07
Speaker 1: closer Amen to your identity in Christ. Just start saying, Man,
22:12
Speaker 1: I have new desires. Now. That's because God gives us
22:17
Speaker 1: a new heart. God gives us a new heart, and
22:20
Speaker 1: he gives us a new mindset. So when he gives
22:22
Speaker 1: us a new mindset, a new heart, we have new desires.
22:28
Speaker 1: So God has given you a new heart and a
22:31
Speaker 1: new spirit, which means you can trust the new righteous desires.
22:37
Speaker 1: Now you can actually follow your heart. The world says,
22:41
Speaker 1: just follow your heart, do whatever you want to do.
22:43
Speaker 1: Don't follow your deceitful heart. If you're not born again.
22:45
Speaker 1: If you're not born again, be careful with following your heart.
22:48
Speaker 1: But if you are born again, you have a new heart.
22:51
Speaker 1: You have God's desires. He's placed those desires within you
22:54
Speaker 1: is Ecal chapter thirty six. And these desires can guide
22:58
Speaker 1: you in making decisions that line up with God's word.
23:03
Speaker 1: When you make a decision, a godly decision, you already
23:05
Speaker 1: know the difference between when you do the right thing
23:08
Speaker 1: and when you do the wrong thing. If you're lining
23:10
Speaker 1: up your decisions with God's ways, Amen, you're gonna live
23:14
Speaker 1: a victorious life, no doubt about it. Amen, You're gonna
23:17
Speaker 1: prosper in everything financially, in your relationship and your health. Amen.
23:23
Speaker 1: Everything is going to increase because of you're aligned with
23:26
Speaker 1: the word of God. So let the new desires blow
23:31
Speaker 1: through you, Amen. Because God gave you those desires, they're
23:33
Speaker 1: lining up with his word, Amen. And he placed those
23:36
Speaker 1: desires within us. He wrote his law on our hearts,
23:41
Speaker 1: and all we're doing is following and repeating what he says. Amen.
23:45
Speaker 1: So these desires I'm talking about, these new desires can
23:48
Speaker 1: guide you in making decisions that align with His will
23:52
Speaker 1: because his will is his word. So once we're lined
23:56
Speaker 1: up and we're in perfect symmetry. Amen, we're lined up,
24:00
Speaker 1: we are going in the right direction, and you could
24:02
Speaker 1: feel it. The Holy Spirit is pleased by that. We
24:06
Speaker 1: could grieve the Holy Spirit by going on another way
24:08
Speaker 1: after he spoke to us and say listen, I need
24:11
Speaker 1: you to do this down the third and then you
24:13
Speaker 1: look at his word. You hear his voice being like, nah,
24:16
Speaker 1: I'm not doing that, and then we grieve his Spirit.
24:19
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm laughing, but it's serious. Amen. And I've
24:22
Speaker 1: been guilty of that too. I know all evangelists more
24:25
Speaker 1: admit that, but I've been disobedient to What about you? Amen?
24:29
Speaker 1: You don't have to say down in the Life Chat.
24:32
Speaker 1: Sister Velvis says, yes, please praise God. Yes, we are
24:34
Speaker 1: praising him. He deserves all the praise on a worship
24:39
Speaker 1: and glory. Amen. I don't deserve that, he does. He
24:44
Speaker 1: deserves it all. So remember really not about seeking external signs.
24:53
Speaker 1: God give me a sign. He will give you a
24:54
Speaker 1: sign if that's what you need. He gives you everything
24:58
Speaker 1: we need. But He doesn't have to show your sign
25:01
Speaker 1: all the time. And man, look at his creation. That's
25:03
Speaker 1: a sign. Right. So it's not about seeing external signs
25:08
Speaker 1: or hearing audible voices, but it's entrusting in your relationship
25:14
Speaker 1: that you have with God through the Lord Jesus Christ.
25:19
Speaker 1: You are always connected. You're always connected to him. Let
25:24
Speaker 1: me remind you that. And He is faithful to guide
25:28
Speaker 1: you as you walk by faith. So, ladies and gentlemen,
25:31
Speaker 1: I'm running out of time here, but I hope you
25:33
Speaker 1: get what I'm saying. Say to John chapter sixteen, weet
25:36
Speaker 1: the whole chapter for yourself. We started in John sixteen
25:40
Speaker 1: and verse thirteen, and I just wanted to show you
25:43
Speaker 1: through the Word that he still speaks and he continues
25:45
Speaker 1: to speak. He's gonna speak to us until he returns,
25:48
Speaker 1: cracks open the sky, and we're gonna hear the trumpet.
25:51
Speaker 1: We're gonna hear sounds. We're gonna see signs of miracles
25:54
Speaker 1: and wonders. We gotta hear his voice. We have Holy Spirit,
25:57
Speaker 1: we have the Scripture and man. We have new desires,
25:59
Speaker 1: new heart, a new mind. We got what we need
26:02
Speaker 1: to live this life out and godliness and righteousness. You
26:06
Speaker 1: might be underestimating the power of God in your life.
26:10
Speaker 1: Don't do that anymore. Amen, Boast about Jesus, share your faith,
26:15
Speaker 1: share your testimony, read the word, apply the Word, and
26:18
Speaker 1: believe that God's going to use you in this season
26:21
Speaker 1: of your life. It's never too late. When God speaks
26:25

26:27
