How Do I Know If The Words Am Hearing In My Head Is From God? by Frankicent(m): 9:56am On Feb 15, 2018 |
Seriously I can't differentiate voice from God/holyspirit... All I know is when I do something bad I talk to my self. Or if I need help I hear voices in my head. Sound more like mine . I do believe am talking to my self just to reduce pain. What I do is to block the voice outta my head... My question How would you know the voice in your head if from God? 2: Does it sound more like your own voice? 3: When I hear this voice what should I do next? My apologize I sound like a man with no faith.... Currently passing through a lottttttttttt now. That I wouldn't say here except I can confined in someone here.. Like a guard Angel.. My faith is drying up. |

You need to find a mature Christian and be accountable to him at least till your ordeal is over. Very many Christians pass through this phase; some were crushed, while some came out stronger. One thing I'm sure is that this is a passing phase: it won't last forever. 1 Like |

Very simple. You know what you're hearing is from God IF it's in complete harmony with the mind of God, as expressed in His Word--the Bible. In fact, God doesn't say new things to anyone except that which He has already covered in His Word. I'd give you an example. When God wanted to admonish me about the dangers of deceit and lies, He did so in form of a dream though not really like a dream. The thing is, a particular verse in the Bible (Psalm 101:7) just keep ringing in my head all night till I woke up in the morning, opened the said verse and saw what the message was all about. This is just one of such cases. 1 Like |

Discerning if your thoughts are of God or yours.....this is a struggle for many believers, actually. You are not alone. If this voice is asking you to do anything that will "kill, steal, or destroy", it is most definitely NOT God. I offer my prayers, might you have a prayer request? Frankicent: |

hello friend, you said, when you do something wrong, u hear voices in your head. what i have to tell you, is you compare the words with what God is saying in your Bible, which i know you have one. if it match, then if it is correction, take it. if it is instruction, follow it. And if it is a command, do it. with that you will have peace of mind. Achiever |

Frankicent:Hello Even matured Christians called and gifted in the prophetic ministry go through this phase regularly in their lives. The reason is because hearing clearly is a function of several factors. 1. How tunned you are: Your expectations, desire, focus on God, spiritual state , detachment from the world etc We are bombarded with spiritual and non spiritual information everyday. The information overload we experience make us SHUT DOWN on most information and thus we allow only the important ones to filter through to us. That is the essence of focus. 2. How gifted you are: A person with the gifts of prophecy, word of knowledge or discernment of spirits may be sharper than those gifted in other fields howbeit every christian and every giglft hears God (eg. Manifestations of the gift of helps may involve Gods leading to a particular person) 3. Distinguishing between source of information: All spiritual information pass FIRST through our Spirit before it is channeled to our Soul(mind). Unfortunately, the channel can also be used by a. Our Spirit b. The Holy Spirit c. A demon It is extremely difficult to distinguish between the voice of our spirit and the voice of the Holy Spirit. My personal opinion though is that we can trust information from our spirit as Christians. The Acid test in isolating information from demons is: 1. Phil4:8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. 2. Phil 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Demonic voices are always characterised by urgency, lack of true peace and immediate physical gratification |

a person hearing voices in his head perhaps needs to go to his local doctor who can then refer him to someone specialising with that specific problem there is no need to feel uncomfortable about seeking improvemeny for your health try praying to God in the quiteness of your mind answers from God will also be quiet, not loud and not many voices, just one God can answer in many ways, through thought, through something happening etc being quiet you can distinguish between God's voice and others that shouldn't be there Mat 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. closet(a quiet place-your mind) |

Frankicent:yes of a truth the God speaks to us using the voice of our conscience which in turn is your spirit's voice. the voice you hear shud sound like urs becuz this is the voice of ur spirit where the Spirit of God resides in u. sometimes revelations from the Holy Spirit are not always in words it is ur spirit that is responsible for pickin up these revelations and converting them into understandable words to you that is y u need more of God's word in ur spirit so that communication will be effective. by the way the Spirit speaks exactly like God's word sometimes He personalizes God's words to instruct you on situation u may b facing. any voice dat does not conform to the word of God please reject. test every revelations to see if they stand the genuity of God 's word. for example u hear gentle voice instructing you to lie a little bit to escape a situation.. dont be tempted to think it is the Holy Spirit because that will be a direct contradiction of his word which says lie no more but speak the truth to one another (paraphrase). shalom |

I hope you understand what I'm about to say',,, the thing is God doesn't give special revelations again.... if he's giving any Revelation, it must have already been converted precisely in the BIBLE.... God doesn't speak (voice) into people's hears 1) it's not needed .... James told the Christians to "receive the engrafted word with meekness which is able to save your soul" I don't believe God gives new revelations ... some pastors can say funny things e.g "God told me that you shouldn't go to work today rather you should and pray against witches and wizards disturbing you" can that ever be true.... another thing is... if I say people MAY not have revelations I'd be lying... pastors can have revelations that isn't from God..... they can hear voices that isn't from God ... God can even allow Them be deceived EZE 14 there's no need for extra revelations ..... else the Bible isn't complete all these supernatural things Christians are chasing about is just RELIGIOUS AFFECTIONS ... study God's word that's where he speaks from... I hope you understand |
