We are excited about summer being here! Why? Because it is a great opportunity to spend some extra time with God. When I am out of town on a trip whether here in the states or overseas and I call Cyndy, she instantly  recognizes my voice. I don't have to say, "This is Spencer calling!" Why? Because she knows my voice. This is how it is with God—the more time you spend with Him, the more you recognize His voice, His direction and His leading in your life. So learn His voice in the small things and when you need Him in the big things, you will already be trained and ready to go. 

I've learned something about people throughout the years—a lot of people only hear what they want to hear because as a man or woman of God, you can give financial advice or godly wisdom but they still do not hear you. Why? They keep talking about the situation and talking about the situation and will not hear you because they are trying to talk themselves into the decision that "they want!"  

As a Certified Faith Based Counselor, I can give input, I can give Godly counsel according to the Word of God, but hearing from God is the key to success in life. I am always amazed at how many people do not know how to hear from God, but instead let circumstances and situations lead them. Hearing from God is a major key to your life, your family, your business, & your ministry. 

All the time people ask us for counsel concerning their situations and we always ask them first—Have you prayed about it? And then second—What did God say?

There are many ways to hear from God.  Here are just a few of them:
  • Read your Bible, pray everyday  and you will grow, grow, grow.  Yes, this is a sentence to a kids song we sang over 20 years ago. It is so true. Read your Bible every day until some thing sparks you and inspires you. Then chew on what God has given you for that day.  You need to be chewing on it ALL day speaking it to yourself because God has given it to you for a reason.
  • Listen to teachings on TV, CD, DVD or at church that inspire your faith and let it spark you.
  • Put on praise & worship music and press into God and worship Him until He speaks to you.
  • Learn to get still and be quiet and stay there until the voice of God speaks to you. If you do NOT have peace about a situation then it is either NOT God or there is  more information from Him that you need
  • Go and get into a prophetic service where God is speaking.
We recently received a postcard in the mail and a local church we were familiar with was having a prophetic night. I believe they do this about once a month.  We happened to be in town and so we put it on our schedule to go. 

We have personally met this pastor and she is an amazing woman of God but we are just acquaintances. We have never been to dinner or had more than a five minute conversation with her. It was great to be in her meeting and see her minister to other people prophetically. Toward the end of the meeting she came over and asked us our name and we told her and she said, "I thought that was you." She began to speak into our lives prophetically for about 10 minutes.  Everything she said contained answers, direction or  confirmation to things we had been asking the Lord about concerning our lives and ministry. 

Cyndy and I minister prophetically both in church services and to people while counseling. The prophetic ministry has always been a very important part of our lives and ministry. We are always amazed at how God touches peoples souls and spirits through a prophetic word.  After getting a prophetic word we usually type out the word, and then begin to speak it into our hearts and spirit through prayer and by declaring the fulfillment of His will! 

"Timothy, my son, I give you this instruction in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by following them you may fight the good fight (1 Tim. 1:18).

Just two weeks ago God spoke to us that NOW was the time to do something that we had tried before but  nothing had happened. In our spirit was, "Today is the day to do this!"  We did and within 24 hours things had totally turned around concerning this situation. We love it when God does this and proves himself strong.    

Do you need to hear from God today?  It is not too late to turn a situation around, it is not too late to hear from him and He will show you what to do.  Even if you have gone your own way, then repent and ask Him to get you back on His path for your life. We are praying for you to hear His voice clearly. We believe that in these last days hearing from God will be a matter of life and death in many situations. Do not let fear get in but instead spend time in the presence of a loving Father who wants to lead, guide and direct your every step.
