The Voice of God
I can tell you to listen to God all day long, but if you don’t recognize His voice that advice is null and void. We must first learn how to discern the voice of God. Who is doing the talking in that mind of yours and how does your life look as result of that voice? How can you tell the voice of God from the voice in your head? Let’s explore it.
One of the first books that I read when I began consciously healing was The Four Agreements. In that book the author gave life and description to what I was experiencing. I had two distinct voices talking in my head. One voice was always a complete a**hole. It saw the bad in everything, and if it didn’t it would create some sort of negative scenario that gave my power over to my worst fears. The other voice was softer, kinder, and only spoke the truth, providing me with comfort and power to move forward.
Because the voice that streamed negativity had more power, it would drown out the other. My life would manifest results that were contrary to what the other voice had in mind. It was literally tearing me apart. The Human Design came in handy as a tool to use to help combat this internal war I was experiencing. The loud, obnoxious voice was my ego mind. The softer voice was the Holy Spirit.
Due to this huge shift in the consciousness that humankind is experiencing, we can no longer operate out of the ego mind, the spirit mind is our new driver.
The ego is the ego, and doesn’t relinquish power without a fight. So my approach to this battle for my mind was to starve that voice out. Give it no power. I stopped feeding the monster that was making my life a living hell. I quieted all distractions that I could control, no news, no tv, no social media, no outside advice from friends, or family.
I needed to get familiar with the voice of my spirit. I needed to hear the voice of God.
The more I tuned in the clearer the voice came through. I didn't hear this voice in my head I heard it in my gut. The voice that had been muffled for so long began to rise up through my body, but was blocked by a heart that wasn’t sure if it could trust my gut anymore. I mean it had been a really long time since my gut and my heart were on the same page.
My ego mind seemed to get to the heart quicker than my gut ever could, but not anymore. I weakened it by lack of attention. I grew my relationship with my spirit, feeding it God’s word and truth. I began to know God on an intimate and personal level. This time my spirit mind was the victor, my heart trusted my intuition again, and I could hear God through the spirit loud and clear.
This is the quick and easy story about a long and hard process of healing by knowing who God is and who He made you to be. We just have to hear Him when He speaks.
Which path our souls take us on is unique to each individual, so a cultivating a personal relationship is key to recognizing and obeying the voice of God. Are you tapping in?
