Good morning Scott, its good to see you again. Thats a tough one man. As we know, We are NOT going to hear a loud voice from heaven...there IS NOT going to be writing on the wall or a bill board pass by on a cloud with Gods message attached to it. NO, Gods voice...thru the Holy Spirit is most likely......going to be very quite and low key. It is up to us to pay attention and sort things out and know when God is speaking to us. And sometimes thats hard as we as humans so often want and need results right then and there.

I often think....when im thinking on something.....when im praying about something....when im looking for guidance and direction. In those times that i just made mention...if i have good and godly thoughts that seem like an answer...i take it as just that....an answer. If what im hearing or feeling...is good and godly...if it is in no way going to hurt anyone....if it applies to my life and is in line with what im thinking on...if it gives the glory to God and in some way betters or builds HIS kingdom...then...i take it as God reveling Himself to me thru the Holy Spirit and i act upon it. THEN...if at some point in time i feel the Holy Spirit convicting me in a way that just dont seem right...then i back up and rethink my actions to see if maybe i have mis-read something.

Always remember...the Holy Spirit lives in ALL born again folks...and he will give us the direction we need....we just have to be patient knowing that it will all come in Gods timing and not ours. Thats not always easy...but it is ALWAYS worth the wait.

Heres a couple of good messages from Charles Stanley if you get the time to listen.

Listening to God - Walking with God
This Week on TV
Charles Stanley
The Lord wants all believers to walk in close relationship with Him. The Bible reveals the Father’s overall plan for the world and provides general guidelines for life. But how can we know His specific plans for us? Listening to God is essential to walking with God (Life Principle #13). In order to know the Father’s will, we must learn to hear His voice.
