In the newly revised and expanded edition of Discerning the Voice of God by Priscilla Shirer you will be taught how to hear God’s voice and to follow His path for your life with His direction. If you are anything like me, you have a longing to hear God, but find that it isn’t always fulfilled. The question is why not? Why cant I hear God talking to me? There are a few reasons and Priscilla will help you to address those reasons and find ways to get past them.
Priscilla explains that there are times when we hear God, but just say that it was a hunch or gut feeling. Those thought will keep us from ever having close, personal relationship with Him. She gives us three ways to help pull us closer to Him and to hear Him more clearly: worship, prayer, and meditation because He wants us to hear Him. He wants to challenge us to live for Him, to know all the truths He can give us, and to offer us peace through a relationship with Him.
Now, I have not read the previous version of this book, but I have to say that I love this version. The questions at the end of each chapter (which are new) helped me to work towards a better understanding of when God is talking to me and helped me to hear Him a little better. She addresses every issue you can think of to help you clear away all blockages that might be holding you back.
My favorite part about this book is that Priscilla write with such authority, like she KNOWS she can help you, but with such kindness that its like having a conversation with your best friend, talking over a cup of tea. Her writing is warm and welcoming. She knows what she is talking about, but she doesn’t talk down to you. She honestly wants to help you.
She wants you to have one of the greatest gifts there is…hearing God and having a personal relationship with Him.
