    YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 5: The Inward Witness

    What do you do when you need God's direction, but you don't hear any words? In Episode 5 of YOU CAN HEAR GOD, we explore one of the most practical ways the Holy Spirit leads us: the inward witness. Romans 8 tells us that the Spirit of God joins with our spirit and that God's children are led by His Spirit. Sometimes that leading isn't an audible voice or even words—it can be an inward peace that says go or an uneasiness that says stop. Through Paul's journey in Acts 16, we see that even good plans and good intentions aren't necessarily God's direction. Paul wanted to preach the Gospel in Asia, but the Holy Spirit stopped him. He tried another direction, and the Spirit stopped him again. Eventually, God directed him toward Macedonia. Sometimes God's leading gives us direction without giving us a full explanation. You don't have to understand the “why” to obey the “what.” Colossians 3:15 tells us to let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts. Like an umpire making the call, God's peace can help us recognize when to move forward and when to stop. But peace doesn't necessarily mean the easiest or most comfortable path. Sometimes our thoughts, emotions, and desires are conflicted while something deeper within us knows, this is the direction God is leading me. God sees what you can't see. He knows what you don't know. He knows what's around the next corner, what an opportunity will become, the consequences connected to a decision, and even what He's protecting you from. Your responsibility isn't to understand everything the Shepherd knows. Your responsibility is to know His voice well enough to follow Him. Let peace be the umpire.

    YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 4: Hearing God in Scripture

    God wants you to do more than simply read His Word—He wants you to hear Him through it. In Episode 4 of YOU CAN HEAR GOD, we discover how words written thousands of years ago can become God's living, personal Word to us today. Hebrews 4:12 tells us that the Word of God is alive and powerful, and Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would teach us, remind us of what He has said, and guide us into truth. On the road to Emmaus, two disciples knew the Scriptures, but when Jesus opened the Scriptures to them, they said their hearts burned within them. The information they already possessed became revelation. In the same way, the Holy Spirit can illuminate Scripture and reveal who God is, what He has said, His ways, His will, and how His Word applies to our lives right now. The goal of Bible reading isn't simply to finish another chapter or complete a reading plan. The goal is to hear the Author while you're reading His words. So the next time you open your Bible, don't just read—listen. Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you, guide you, reveal God to you, and show you what He wants you to do with what you're reading. Don't read the Bible just to finish the chapter. Read the Bible to hear the Author.

    YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 3: God Speaks in Many Ways

    God may be speaking more than you think. Do you recognize His voice when He does? In Episode 3 of YOU CAN HEAR GOD, we discover that hearing God isn't limited to hearing an audible voice. Throughout Scripture, God communicated with people in many different ways. He spoke through His Word, conviction, people, angels, desires, dreams, visions, and by His Spirit bearing witness within. The method wasn't always the same, but the source was. The goal is to become so familiar with the Shepherd that when He speaks, something within you says, “I know that voice.” Receive. Recognize. Respond.

    YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 2 Position Yourself to Hear

    God is speaking—but are we positioned to hear Him? In Luke 10, Jesus was in Martha’s house and His words were filling the room, yet distraction, worry, and trouble became louder than the voice she needed most. Mary made a different choice. She sat at Jesus’ feet and listened. Jesus said she had chosen the one thing that was necessary. In Episode 2 of You Can Hear God, Pastor Dean Forrest explores the difference between simply being around the things of God and intentionally positioning ourselves to hear Him. Discover why hearing God requires more than religious activity, how distraction and worry can compete for our attention, and why God’s voice can bring peace, clarity, direction, wisdom, and revelation into the situations we face. God is speaking. The question is whether we will turn down the other voices, make time with Him a priority, and listen. 📖 Scriptures: Romans 8:14; Romans 10:17; John 10:1–5; Luke 10:38–42 YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 2 Position Yourself to Hear Elation Church | Davenport, Florida

    YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 1 You’ve Heard Him Before

    You can hear God. Hearing God isn’t reserved for pastors, prophets, or a select group of unusually spiritual people. Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice… and they follow Me.” If you belong to Him, hearing His voice is meant to be a normal part of your relationship with God. In this first episode of You Can Hear God, Pastor Dean Forrest explores how God speaks, how His Word becomes personal and alive to us, and why hearing Him is essential to a life of faith. You’ll discover that if you’re a Christian, you’ve already heard God—you may just not have recognized it was Him. Faith comes by hearing. God is still speaking. Scriptures: John 10:1–5; Romans 8:14; Romans 10:8–17; Ephesians 2:8–9; Romans 6:23; 2 Timothy 3:16 YOU CAN HEAR GOD — Episode 1 You’ve Heard Him Before Elation Church | Davenport, Florida www.elation.church

    Magnify

    Every day we have a choice. What we talk about the most will ultimately fill our life. Many choose to dwell on their daily problems, past failures, and overwhelming fears. In Psalm 34, we see David choosing to bless and magnify the Lord during one of the most difficult seasons of his life. As he sought the Lord, fear lost its power over him.
