How to Know if What You’re Feeling is from God | Whisper Part 2: Desires and Doors
About This Message
Speaker: David Reneau
Summary:
Have you ever wondered if that "gut feeling" or a new opportunity is actually God speaking to you? We often pray for God to open doors, but we rarely stop to ask if our own desires are in line with His heart.
In Part 2 of our "Whisper" series, we look at the second and third languages God uses to speak to us: Desires and Doors. We explore the surprising truth that God actually wants us to delight in His creation and that a "closed door" is often just as much an answered prayer as an open one.
Whether you’re facing a major career move, a relationship decision, or just feeling stuck, this message provides 10 practical "tests" to help you discern if what you’re feeling and seeing is truly the voice of God.
In this message, we discuss:
Why putting God first is the key to hearing His voice.
The "Glad, Sad, and Mad" diagnostic for your passions.
Why the Holy Spirit sometimes says "no" to good things (Acts 16).
The 5 tests to verify if an open door is a God-given opportunity.
