Whispers From God

'I know you're a God who speaks, but why can't I hear you?'Have you asked that question before, too?

It also ends up that I had to stop doing all of the talking and actually take time to listen.

Whispers From God contains: - 30 devotionals of loving encouragement created from His whispers to me- Scripture verses that accompany each devotional- Space to pause, listen, and write down His whispers to you during this 30-day journeyI truly believe that God will use this devotional/journal to encourage you greatly and strengthen your relationship with Him. May this journey give you an opportunity to practice hearing His voice and change your life forever.

In God Doesn't Whisper, Pastor Jim Osman examines the assumptions, practices, and Scriptural citations of those who promote Hearing the Voice of God theology. This book provides a thorough examination of the Scriptures often used to promote the practice of listening for the voice of God. What is the still small voice? Does God speak through signs? What about open doors, dreams, and "feeling led"? What is the biblical model for decision-making? Scripture is clear: God Doesn't Whisper.

ONE WHISPER FROM THE LORD CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING... Thirteen years ago, Jesus asked me, "Are you willing to give up everything to follow Me?" After years of hesitation, I finally answered yes. It wasn't the moment I gave my life to Christ for salvation, but it was the moment I gave my life in sacrifice. Whispers from God are the stories of what began happening to me the moment, I believe, the Lord knew I was serious about saying yes. The kind of serious that means living life on my knees at the foot of the cross. One thing I have learned on this journey is that truly following Jesus isn't for the faint of heart. But it is for those who long to give all of their heart and it is absolutely worth it. From the uncomfortable to the unexpected, these are some of the stories throughout my life, of times the Lord whispered to me...stories of learning and understanding how to function in the prophetic and what it means to continually seek His face, sit in His presence, hear His voice and act on it. My instructions from the Lord have been to "go light your world" and these are some of the ways I believe He's asked me to do it. My prayer is that He speaks to your heart through the stories that have deeply impacted my life and they begin for you, a journey of seeking the Lord--listening earnestly for the quiet whispers of His voice. He's waiting...are you listening? And so, here is my heart... 1
