Hearing from God

it's not the ultimate but it's one of the ways

1. Check Your Heart[ask God for forgiveness, things that he convicts u]
(Ps. 66:18, 1John 3:21-22)

2. Admit Dependance on God[Acknowledge that we need the Holy Spirit.]
(Rom 8:26, Eph 5:18)

3. Die to Self[putting down own thoughts/ preconcieved ideas]
(2Cor 10:5, Mark 14:36)

4.Spiritual warefare[tell the enemy he can keep quiet and has no right]
(james 4:7, Zech 3:2)

5.Expect to hear from God
(john 10:27)

to make it short and understandable, here a summary:

make sure your heart is clean then acknowledge we need the holy spirit and ask him to guide you(believe that he will) put away ur preconcieved ides and those that come from satan and your own desires. DEAL agressively with the enemy. Give praise to God and wait for him to speak be in silence wait for an answer(make sure you don't fall asleep)
