The Secret of Hearing The Voice of God When you hear a dog make sound, to you it is barking, but to another dog hearing the same thing, that dog is not barking, it is speaking! There is a distinct message being communicated by that dog and the reason you miss the communication or lack the understanding of what is being communicated is because your ears are not tuned in to the dog realm. You are outside that realm, that is why you cannot hear what the dog is saying, so to you it’s just unorganised sound but to that dog its communicating. Same thing when you hear a sheep bleating, to you that sound is bleating but to another sheep it is not bleating, it is talking. You have to be in the sheep realm to hear that they are not just bleating, they are talking. You see even when the Lord Jesus was walking the earth and speaking the common language that was familiar to men, many still failed to hear him. He was speaking their own language that they taught in the schools of the day, but when he would open his mouth to speak they would get confused. Why? The words he was speaking were in the spirit and it took someone to hear them from that realm to understand any of it. John 8: 43 says; Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. The Lord Jesus said His words are spirit, you cannot hear them until you become sensitive to the spiritual, until then when he speaks to you it will be no different to the sound of a dog barking. It will be meaningless, even though God is speaking many are still groping in the dark clueless. As long you are outside that realm his voice will sound like a bark or a bleat. John 6: 63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing the words that I speak to you, they are spirit, and they are life. You see now, trying to hear God whilst outside the spirit is like an English-only speaking individual trying to learn English from a German-only speaking individual. They are just not the same language and they won’t understand each other. God speaks Spirit and we speak English or other languages and God is the sovereign Lord and he is not changing his language for us. We have to change and learn the language he speaks. The advantage though is we don’t really need to learn the language. All we need to do is to be in the realm where its spoken. In other words, we ought to be in the spirit realm and understand words spoken by God. Remember what John 8: 43 says; Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word Those words were spoken in Greek to people who understood Greek or Aramaic to people of Hebrew origin, who understood that language but they couldn’t understand them for they were coated by the spirit. All the Lord is saying in John 8 is be in the spirit to understand the words in the spirit though they have been spoken in English or any other language. Notice, John says, I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, And; …then he heard. Notice from where he was hearing. He said, I was in the spirit then I heard. His ability to hear was dependant on him being in the spirit. The same rules apply to you. You cannot hear him when you are outside that realm of the spirit. He can be speaking to you directly, but you will not be able to decipher anything he is saying. John could not hear that voice until he got into the spirit and today believers are busy trying to hear God with their natural ears, when what he is speaking is coated by something spiritual that only those who are in the spiritual realm can understand. Revelation 1: 10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet. You cannot access the voice of God for yourself because he is speaking from one realm and you are trying to hear him from another. This is just not possible. You cannot hear God unless you are in the realm of the spirit. Let me show you something, through extensive research, dog trainers have discovered that dogs actually use vocal cues to communicate. The type of bark or throat growl will depend on whether the situation is confrontational, playful, or whether alerts are being sent out by other dogs in the neighborhood. For example, sometimes when other dogs in the street are barking my dogs’ ears will prick up, but they will not bark. Other times they’ll jump up and start barking as though they have been alerted to an unusual occurrence in the area. These vocal cues are not obvious to the human ear, but even before a dog attacks you, in its mind you have received enough warning to stay away but you won’t know it if you don’t understand barking or dog language because you are not a dog. You don’t live in dog realm so to you a dog attacked you without any warning but to the dog it told you several times using ‘dog words’ not to move any further and it’s also confused as to why you didn’t listen just as you are shocked as to why it bit you without warning. So you see your understanding is very limited, but to another dog these cues are apparent, and there is no confusion whatsoever. They are communicating from the same realm, and so they understand one another clearly. To one in that realm, all things dog make sense. To the one outside that realm, it is all just gibberish. This is exactly where you are missing God’s attempts to communicate with you. God speaks, but the question is from where do you hear him? A barking dog makes a very distinct sound. The dog is very deliberate in its voice projection. It is talking, but to you, it is just barking and you cannot tell one bark from the other. You are not in the dog realm, so those things don’t make sense to you at all. Christians live frustrated and empty lives, because they are trying to access the voice of God outside that spiritual realm, and no matter how many times God speaks, they are still in a state of confusion, because nothing they have heard makes any sense at all. Being in the Spirit God is a spirit, and when He speaks, you need to be in the spirit. If God speaks in the spirit and you are in the flesh, you cannot hear Him. That is the condition in which we have to place ourselves in order to hear from God. It’s interesting to note that all through the Bible, God has required people to come out of their physical situations, out of their affairs of this life to a solitary place, before they can hear clearly from Him. The question is why should they have to go all the way to the mountain before God speaks? Why couldn’t God speak to them when they were at home? Couldn’t God have spoken to them there? Of course, He could. God’s presence is everywhere. He can speak anywhere, anyplace, at any time. Don’t get me wrong here. I am not saying start packing your bags and sleeping bags and make your way to the mountains. I am not saying that going up a mountain to pray is going to make you walk in the spirit, not at all, but there is something we can take from that. You see, with these people it was deliberate and not something they stumbled into. They wouldn’t just wake up and find themselves alone on the plateau of a mountain. Just like you picking up this book, they had the mind to hear from God directly, and decided to position themselves accordingly. God is not the problem here. The problem is you. Many right now bible believing, tongue talking believers are alien to the voice of God, yet God is speaking every day. They fail to get in the spirit where his voice is clear and distinct. God is not trying to hide from you. In fact, the bible tells us that God speaks distinctly. 1 Tim 4: 1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; That Greek word translated as expressly is rhetos and it means to speak distinctly or to speak in a way that is distinguishable to the senses; clearly. So God is speaking clearly yet you cannot hear what he is saying. To God everything he is saying to you right now ought to be understood, He says in that scripture that he is speaking expressly, that is to say clearly you are meant to hear it. He is not trying to hide from you. Walking by the Spirit As a born-again believer, you ought to be surprised when you come out of the spirit not when you enter the spirit realm because this is your new nature. You ought to be in the spirit already. For many, however, they have the opposite experience. They are surprised when they find themselves walking in the spirit, as they are usually on the other side. I know I have many witnesses right now, please don’t raise your hand. This is exactly what Paul was exhorting the Galatians to do. Galatians 5: 25 says; If we live by the spirit, let us also walk by the spirit. Paul was writing this letter to believers and you would have thought that it should be automatic that believers walk by the spirit but Paul had to write and encourage them. It is possible for you to be born again, and still live as if you are not even alive to God. This was Paul’s cry to the Galatians, who, just like you, were born again and speaking in tongues, but had no access to the voice of God. This is because they were still not walking by the spirit. They were born again, so they were living by the Spirit, but they were not walking by the Spirit. They had the life of God in them, but it had not been translated into walking in the Spirit and Paul had to come and teach them this subject. I love the way Paul breaks it down in that chapter. He made it really simple and even the babes in Christ could understand what he was teaching. Right now, when you hear ‘walking in the spirit’ you think it’s like robotic science. Well it’s not. It’s so simple. The things of God usually are. Let’s back up a little bit in the same chapter, and see how simple walking in the spirit is. Paul says; Galatians 5: 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance; against such there is no law.
Nimesoma yote. Asante sana.

So the secret is to be in the spiritual realm...on the same frequency with the Holly Spirit. The question now becomes: How do you do that?

Hii haifundishwi po pote na naamini ndiyo tatizo la wengi - hata kwa waliookoka! Ndiyo maana wengine wanadhani kuwa wameongea na Roho Mtakatifu kumbe siyo matokeo yake wanaleta mafundisho ambayo yako kinyume na Roho Mtakatifu.

Paul was giving them a compass by which to know whether or not they were walking in the Spirit. This is important, because I know right now as you are reading this some are thinking; I’m in church every Sunday, I don’t swear, and I don’t lie, so I must be walking in the spirit. Just hold your horses right there. Paul says the fruit of the spirit is Love, and notice he did not say the fruits, no, but the fruit, as in one only. I know many have been taught that we have many fruits of the Spirit but this is not what the bible actually says, it only speaks of one fruit and that is love. The others are attributes of that one fruit. So that means when you are walking in the spirit there is a certain fruit that we ought to begin to see in your life and Paul calls it love. He doesn’t stop there, but goes on to describe the attributes of love that are joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance, which are all part of the same fruit. Remember that the scripture we just read said the fruit of the spirit, not the fruits. So the fruit is love, and it is manifested in all these other ways he goes on to list for us. When you do not see them in you, you know you are not walking in the spirit. You are not showing the fruits of one that is doing so, and hearing the voice of God will still be very difficult for you. When you study the scriptures, you will find that love is actually described, as all these attributes are manifestations of the fruit of the Spirit. Look at what Paul says in 1 Corinthians. 1 Corinthians 13: 4–8 Love suffereth long, and is kind, love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Love never fails. Paul is telling us right here that longsuffering, peace, joy, gentleness, goodness, and faith are inside love. They are manifestations of the one fruit of the Spirit, which is love and not the fruits themselves. In the scripture we have just read, the Bible tells us that Love is not easily provoked. In other words, love is gentleness, love suffereth long. Put the two words together and it is longsuffering. I think you are getting the point. When the Bible talks about the fruit of the Spirit, there is only one, and that is love. To master walking in the spirit you only need to do one thing, and that is to walk in love. When you are walking in love you don’t need to think about whether or not you are being longsuffering, gentle, or good e.t.c because these are the fruits of love. As a believer, the Bible already tells us that the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts, which means that love comes to you naturally, that it is your new nature and you just need to yield yourself to it and walk in it which is tantamount walking in the spirit. You see how walking in the spirit is easy? Yes it is! Romans 5: 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost, which is given unto us. God has already done everything to enable you to walk in the spirit and access His voice. God wants you to walk in the Spirit where you can access His voice and bear the fruit of the Spirit. You are able to walk in love, because He has injected His own love into you, and it is a God-given ability. No one can put their hand up and say I can’t do it. If you are saved, you already have the love of God inside of you. You don’t pray to get 5 kilograms of love to see you through each day or pray for even more depending on how many people have upset you that day! You just have it! You can walk in the spirit where you will begin to see the manifestation of that love through meekness, gentleness, and longsuffering. These things become a part of you. If you say you don’t have love then you are not born again. It is that simple. If you look at the whole Bible, there is only one word that is used to describe who God is, and what he is made of. That word is love. So when you walk in love, you are walking in the realm of God. You are walking inside God and experiencing the God life therefore hearing his voice clearly. The scripture says, 1 John 4: 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. John is telling us that it is not possible for you to know God or relate to him, unless you are walking in love. Now remember love is the fruit of the Spirit. Outside of love there is no fellowship with God and you cannot access His voice. Love is the very nature of God, and as a born-again believer, you are a partaker of His divine nature and the love of God is shed abroad in your heart by the Spirit of God. In the Old Testament Moses asked the Lord to show him His glory: Exodus 33: 18 And he said; I beseech thee, shew me thy glory. Here you need to understand that Moses was not just asking to see the power of God, he wanted to know the material from which God is made, for lack of a better word. He was asking to know the very nature of God, and what he saw will surprise you. Let’s read from the next chapter: Exodus 34: 6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth. Now don’t lose me here. This was the Lord showing Moses His glory, but notice that the things he proclaims himself to be are the same aspects that are a manifestation of the fruit of the Spirit, which is love. Graciousness, mercy, longsuffering, and goodness are attributes of the fruit of the Spirit, which is love, and when you walk in love you are at the wavelength God uses when he speaks. You are not in the spirit when you are weighed down by depression and anxiety. You are far from it. You need to come to terms with the fact that you cannot allow circumstances to determine how you will respond in life. You will be up and down like a yoyo emotionally, and your ability to access the voice of God will be hindered. You hear people asking each other; “how are you doing?” and the answer is usually “doing well under the circumstance” to which I usually respond, “what are you doing under the circumstances” You see love makes you go above the circumstances no matter what. Paul writing to the Philippians instructed them to be anxious for nothing, and the next verse describes the results of not allowing yourself to be anxious. Let’s look at it. Philippians 4: 6 Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving may your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ. You may say, ‘But man of God you don’t understand what I’m going through’. Paul said in everything be careful for nothing. This is a pitfall that many are getting trapped in every day and from which they cannot access the voice of God. You are still operating from an entirely different realm to the one in which the voice of God can be heard. I know many people are frustrated, because they seem to do everything right, but just don’t know why they still cannot hear directly from God. The easiest way for you to walk in the spirit is to walk in love—remember the fruit of the spirit is love, and God has already empowered you to do so. The Bible says that the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts and the ability of God is already in you to enable you to walk in love. This is the reason why I don’t fight back when attacked and I’ve had my fair share. In fact, I feel sorry for my enemies and love them and pray for them because the love of God is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Ghost. You just need to submit yourself to that love, and you will find yourself soaring to greater heights. If you don’t have love, you are not born again. It’s as simple as that, because when you are born again, you have the love of God in your heart. In the next chapter, you will find out exactly how God speaks. Get ready. Your life is about to turn around from here onwards.
