Five Tips for Hearing God’s Voice


This was a study I did from a group I have subscribes to called “The VoiceofLove”. I thought this to be a lovely method to make a deeper connection with God so I have summarized this lesson for your pleasure!



Five Tips for Hearing God’s Voice


1. Validating how you already hear God’s voice.

Open your mind to new possibilities of all forms of hearing God’s voice. It’s different for everyone.



a. True voice of inner God or higher self
b. Signs or feelings in things around you
c. Intuition or a sense of knowing
d. Pendulum
e. Music and lyrics
f. Inspiring quotes of books





2. Quieting the Mind












a. Meditation is a wonderful way to quite the mind.
b. Many forms of meditation here is simple way;
   i. Extending love to your thoughts. Becoming aware of your thoughts and welcome them.   Visualize light going to your thoughts. Embrace them and don’t struggle against them.
   ii. Extend love to everything you are aware of and it becomes simple to hear God’s voice. A loving state instantly connects you with God.

  iii. When your mind quiets down ask God and question and see what you hear.

  iv. Trust the answer.







3. Opening the Door















a. Meditation can be used to find peace thus connecting with God.
b. Start a conversation with God, some call this prayer.
c. God hears you, asks specific questions. Request specific things you need or help you are seeking.
d. God see his child with so much love its hard to comprehend.
e. It can take time for the answer to unfold, it may not always be immediate.
f. Trust the process and know all things are done in your best interest and timing thereof.

 Once you’ve gone within and quitted your mind and started a dialog with God. Ask for whatever it is you are seeking. Open your mind to communicating everyway possible; thoughts, love, song, seeing pictures or movies in your minds eye.





4. Hearing in Different Ways











a. Close your eyes share your mind with God and ask a question.
b. Acknowledge what you see in your minds eye and trust your answer.

 

 


5. Giving God’s voice Expression

















a. When you begin to hear God’s voice (intuition or knowing) it is important to give this voice expression.
b. Hug or smile, pen or paper, sharing with another how God is working in you.
c. Bring truth and love to the world.
d. Joining with God and expressing.



This is a beautiful start on a beautiful journey of great love and peace. I hope each of you will give it a try . . .

The Principles of Meditation

as taught by Joel S. Goldsmith

These are principles all teachers and practitioners follow and teach to their students. Question any Infinite Way teacher that does not meditate or teach meditation.

1. Make yourself physically comfortable. Sit erect, with your spine straight,your feet planted firmly on the floor, your hands relaxed in your lap, and
breathe normally.
-There is no mystical or occult reason for this; it is verysimple: When the body is perfectly comfortable, one is not conscious of it.
-Take a breath and count to four. Breathe in and out four or five times counting to quiet your mind. Breathe normally.

2. Next, repeat silently or audibly, "I turn within to the Christ of my own being." If thoughts enter,
repeat this phrase.
-ALWAYS go into meditation by yourself. NEVER let anotherlead you into meditation.

3. We will never be able to stop the mind completely. If human thoughts or concerns enter, do not fight them. Relax, let the thoughts come and then let them go. As you practice, this interference will subside. Be patient.

4. Now move to the subject, "What is God?" You are not interested in another's concept of God; you interested only in asking, "What is God?" and receiving the answer from God. The kingdom of God is within you, so the answer must come from within your own being.
- Sit quietly and ask,"Speak Lord, thy servant heareth, " or "Father, I am here, speak."

5. Assume a listening attitude as if you were waiting to hear the answer. Thoughts may come. Think about God as the source of our being and all that is, Omnipresent, Omnipotent, and Omniscient.

6. Someday, while meditating and pondering this idea, "What is God?" realizing now the nature of prayer, you will suddenly find that you cannot think any more; you have come to the end of
thought about God and prayer. Then you will sit quietly, at peace - no more thoughts, no more questions, no more answers, just peace. Thought will be quieted; the inner ear will open; and a long deep breath, like a sigh of relief or a sense of release, will probably come to you. It will be as if you were escaping from something, as if a burden were dropping off of your shoulders.It will appear in many different ways, and when that release or relief comes, you will be so full of the Spirit that you will want to get right up and do the work
that lies ahead for the day, or perhaps some work that has been neglected. With that release will come divine wisdom, divine guidance, and divine strength, for this reason: That deep breath, that "click" or release, was a God-experience-the
actual presence or activity of God in your consciousness.

From "Living the Infinite Way" p. 35 and personal instructions to Geri McDonald.
