The Message: How to DECODE God’s Voice: 5 Ways
So friends, we’re looking at how to decode God’s voice. There are various ways God speaks to us. The text we’ll be looking at today is 1 Samuel chapter 3. But just on an introductory term, it is possible you’re already hearing God. The issue is either you’re not attentive or you don’t understand when He speaks or you’ve not been taught on how to be able to decode what He’s saying.
And so in this short exhortation, I would like us to look at the five ways God speaks to us. Five ways. And they are by audible voice, by revelation and revelations broken down into visions, trances and dreams. By inward witnessing,

Trances are like your eyes, you just go into a different realm. You’re sitting in one place and your find yourself in different realm completely and you just get interrupted and you begin to see, get submerged into another realm, begin to see things the way they are revealed. Number three, by inward witnessing, you understand that. And number four, by prophecies or word of knowledge. Number five, by written word. So let’s look at the audible voice. Now, before I go on, you understand that as you go through scripture, you see even in the garden of Eden, God coming down in the cool of the day and discussing with the humans, that is Adam and Eve, and taking a walking with them, spirit to spirit. And so we see that. We see how he came
