Are you struggling to hear God’s voice in the noise of life? Do you wonder if He’s speaking at all? The truth is, God is always speaking—we just need to tune in. Join in for "Frequency: How to Hear God Speak," a four-week series where we’ll discover how to recognize God's voice, remove distractions, and develop a lifestyle of listening to Him.
Keeping Your Prayers on Target Checklist
- What do I really want? Am I being specific, or am I just rambling about nothing in particular?
- Can God grant this request? Or is it against God’s nature to do so?
- Have I done my part? Or am I praying to lose weight when I haven’t dieted?
- How is my relationship with God? Are we on speaking terms?
- Who will get the credit if my request is granted? Do I have God’s interests in mind?
- Do I really want my prayer answered? What would happen if I actually did get that girlfriend back?
