THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN LEARNING THE VOICE OF GOD

And that’s my crucial assignment from Him! To learn as much as I can about having a closer walk with Him so I can share all this essential knowledge with you! God is our Greatest Friend, but if you are not hearing His voice, you’re missing out on the best guidance to keep your life on the best path.

Like I can’t get over how He helped me make a significant decision recently. I felt those feelings of peace in my spirit from Him before making a phone call to a rep who would be assisting me. I first remembered that I needed to call to make an appointment with a doctor’s office. It went to the doctor’s answering service, and I had to press some numbers to leave a message. I ended up pushing “411” in that specific order. Right after hanging up, I went back to calling that rep, and his number unbelievably ended in “411.” I was blown away by God! For me to reach that doctor first and have to enter “411” to leave a message and then make that major decision and call that rep with his number ending in 411 was God’s way of giving me His OK to move forward confidently, knowing He was with me. I did, and so far everything has worked out better than I expected!

Another time I called to follow up with this rep, I asked him, “What’s the 411?’ having some fun with it. But yesterday, having to text him, we ended up chatting by text, and I was blown away when I noticed that my last message to him said OK, and it was unbelievably 4:11 pm! I sent him a picture, and we both felt God’s intimate Presence. I said God is on board with us! And that’s the voice of God I want you guys to learn! No way these were all coincidences!!! They were all orchestrated by God! Having His approval as I step out on a major limb with Him gives me the courage and confidence to live boldly with him as my Partner and Guide.

Then, last night, God blew me away again! I needed Ember’s assistance yesterday, and I ended up doing a video call with her telling her how pretty and happy she looks at her university in New York. I called her later, telling her that I’m so proud of our family. These past few years have been rough on her mom, but God stood with me and helped us get to this point where we are with her and her siblings, all making me and my husband so proud. After posting my blog to Tumblr, I randomly selected an old post to read for an appointment with Him, and look what incredibly showed up from two months ago:

“That’s the greatest news ever! That we don’t have to handle our lives alone. God is there! I’m amazed as I think back on the last dark two years of my life. God has been standing strong with me, even at my bottommost. I looked at my elder daughter, Ember, this week on a video call at her country club university in New York, looking so beautiful and happy, and I was like, ‘Wow, God, You made this happen for us!’ Even when my husband adamantly said, “Ember is not going to New York!!!’ we kept our eyes on the prize, looking to God for His strategy to get her there, staying on the high road with Him, and suddenly hubby gave his blessings for her to go. Nothing is impossible for God!”

Of all my posts, for this to show up after my exact conversations two times that day with Ember was all God saying, ‘Nik, I’m always with you!’ And He’s with you too! Just pray this prayer with me, ‘God, I want a closer walk with You!’ Then start pausing and seeking Him in every decision as He gives you the courage to take on big and complex things for Him too! Feelings of doubt, uneasiness, and stress mean He is saying, ‘Hold up, don’t do that!’ Whereas, feelings of peace, enthusiasm. and excitement are His way of saying that we’re headed in the right direction. So, pay attention to those feelings!!! Wink! Wink!
