Bible Question: How can we know we are hearing from God and not following our desires or being deceived by Satan when we pray for direction in our lives? |
Bible Answer: You know Steve, that is an excellent question and no one can give a definite answer. But I believe that if we pray for God's will be done then we know that it can't be Satan or yourselves's will. But the hard part is knowing which answer (if there is an answer) to choose. First of all, I believe if there isn't an answer than just play it by ear and keep praying. If there is an answer then look in the bible and follow it in making a choice. And if there are many different answers I would go with the quietest one. Not one that breaks down the door of your heart and almost forces you to do it. But the one like a gentle breeze: comforting, and peaceful. Well I hope that I have answered your qeustion. |
