Boot Camp Day 12: Why we Don't Hear God Speak

John 8:47

He who belongs to God hears what God says. 

The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.

Have you asked God to speak but it feels like there's cotton in your ears? 

Since this is boot camp, I'll get straight to the point:  If you've never established a personal relationship with God, you will not hear God speaking into your everyday life.

Perhaps you are a "head believer."  A head believer, believes there's a God.  Perhaps she's joined the church and has been baptized or christened.  A head believer may even go to the church each week.

Hoever, the word believe means:  we accept what we hear, but then we act on it. 
 
So here's the difference between a head believer and a true believer: a true believer has an established relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
When you transition from head knowledge to responding to God with your heart, you are on the road to becoming a true believer.   It starts with a decision:  the decision to ask Christ to come into your heart. 

Have you said "yes" with your heart?   Have you said yes with your mind, will, emotions and intellect?  This is when we act on what we hear.

If not, why don't you pray right now, "Jesus, come into my heart and save me."  It's as simple as praying, "Father, forgive me of my sin and receive me as Your child."

Regardless of your denomination - this is the way to God.  Romans 10:9 says, "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."

Praying this prayer, my sweet sister, is the first step to being in relationship with Jesus - and HEARING HIM SPEAK, personally to you!
