God wants to speak to you on a One-to-one basis, every day. He wants to take you step by step to the good things He has in store for you. God finds ways to reach out to us every day, offering a lifetime partnership filled with guidance on everything from major life issues to small, ordinary problems. The question is, Are you listening? Through her international ministry, Joyce Meyer has helped millions of people develop a stronger, more fulfilling relationship with God. Now, in HOW TO HEAR FROM GOD, she teaches you how to open your heart to develop a special sensitivity and receptiveness to the many different-and often surprising-ways God can answer your questions. Using the Scriptures and real-life experiences from her ministry, Joyce helps you: * Hear God speaking to you through your own thoughts and feelings, the words of other people, your dreams, signs in the natural world, and more * Arm yourself against negative people, gossip, television, and sometimes even the religious "rituals" that can distract you from hearing God's words * Understand why you must follow His advice to receive the many blessings He wants to give you * Know that simply asking God to sanctify your heart and your ears will make it easier to hear what He has to tell you-and discover the joy of lasting inner peace. In HOW TO HEAR FROM GOD, Joyce Meyer shows you step by step how to wholly place your trust in God. The reward is a life filled with meaning, self-awareness, and the knowledge that God's willingness to speak to you has no limits. In the end, the choice is simple. If you listen, you will hear.
