“Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity.[a] All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.” 1 Corinthians 13:12 NLT

“Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.” Psalm 139:7-10 NIV

When you listen to a Bible teacher, do you ask yourself, “Is this taught in the Bible?” Or is this someone’s insight or opinion? There is a lot of “Bible teaching” that is not based on Scripture but based on the individual’s own learning and insights. Ask yourself, “Where did they learn this? Who do they learn from?”
Sometimes you can learn a lot from researching who they follow. You may discover that this “Bible teacher” is learning from some unbiblical sources. You would be surprised how many well-known “Bible teachers” subscribe to New Age thought. This is very dangerous.
One such teaching is “Listening Prayer”. GotQuestions.org has an excellent article on this topic. I urge you to read it. What is Listening Prayer?
Another great source to learn more about this topic and where it came from is the video Wide Is The Gate 2 (5 of 5) The Emerging New Christianity: The Contemplative Mystical Movement. Watch it here.
You can learn more about Caryl Matrisclana and Wide Is the Gate at Bruce Cooper’s excellent blog, Reasoned Cases for Christ here.
Jesus prayed to the Father for us,
“Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.” John 17:17 NIV
He taught us how to pray,
“Pray, then, in this way:
‘Our Father, who is in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” Matthew 6:9-13 NASB
The Bible, God’s Word, is our only source of Truth. This is how God speaks to His children. Read it every day.
In His Love, Cindy

“Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NLT

Tim Challies, The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment
I highly recommend this book to all Christians who want to have spiritual discernment.
