Experiencing God: When You don't know what to Pray

Mayte Swift

Published on: 27/04/2026

Many believers wonder how to hear from God in their daily lives. God speaks to us primarily through prayer and circumstances, not audible voices like some biblical figures experienced. The Holy Spirit intercedes for us when we don't know what to pray, but we often build walls that block His voice - emotional fortitude, self-reliance, control, and fear. King David exemplified someone who heard from God through consistent prayer and attention to circumstances, using his time as an outcast to develop his relationship with God. Prayer is two-way communication with God, and writing down our prayers helps us process emotions and remember God's faithfulness. We must trust God's bird's eye view rather than judging our situation by current circumstances alone.

Experiencing God: Scripture is Your Life-Line

Many Christians struggle to discern God's will while ignoring the primary way He reveals Himself - through Scripture. The story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8 demonstrates how God's Word always points to Jesus and leads to transformation. Philip's immediate obedience to God's direction led him from successful ministry in Samaria to a divine appointment in the desert. When Philip explained Isaiah 53 to the Ethiopian official, showing how it pointed to Jesus, the man immediately wanted to be baptized. This teaches us that Scripture and the Holy Spirit work together, not separately. To truly understand God's will, we must prioritize His Word in our daily lives, not as a legalistic duty but as part of our love relationship with Christ.

God's Invisible Activity

Jeremy Swift

Published on: 16/04/2026

God is actively working around us every day, but we often miss His movement because we're caught up in our own agendas and distractions. The story of Elisha and his servant in 2 Kings 6 illustrates this perfectly - when surrounded by enemy armies, the servant saw only danger while Elisha saw God's protective angels. To recognize God's work, we need a genuine relationship with Him through Jesus Christ, grounding in Scripture and prayer, immediate obedience when He speaks, trust in His empowerment, and submission to His process in our current circumstances. The question isn't whether God is active - it's whether we're paying attention and ready to join Him.

Experiencing God: How far will God's Love go?

Jeremy Swift

Published on: 02/04/2026

God's love reaches beyond our worst failures and deepest inadequacies. Through the stories of Carla Faye Tucker, a death row inmate who found Christ, and Moses, a murderer with a speech impediment, we see that God chooses unlikely people for His purposes. The key isn't our qualifications but God's capabilities. His primary desire isn't for us to perform for Him, but to be in relationship with Him. When we allow God to love us deeply, He transforms our weaknesses into strengths and invites us into His mission.
