Hearing God Clearly — Practical and discipleship-focused.
The Steve Marston Show
6 views
Have you ever heard someone say, "God told me to do this," and wondered how they knew it was really God speaking?
Does God still speak to Christians today? How can we distinguish the Holy Spirit's leading from our own thoughts, emotions, or desires?
On this episode of The Steve Marston Show, we're tackling one of the most common—and sometimes confusing—phrases in Christianity: "God told me."
As part of our Christian, Explain Yourself series, Steve explores what the Bible teaches about hearing God's voice, recognizing the Holy Spirit's conviction, and discerning God's will for our lives.
Steve also shares a personal experience at a restaurant when he felt God prompting him to ask his server a simple question. What happened wasn't what he expected, but it taught him an important lesson about obedience.
In this video, you'll discover:
How God speaks to believers through His Word and the Holy Spirit
Why every strong feeling isn't necessarily a message from God
Three practical tests for discerning God's leading: Scripture, wise counsel, and motives
Why obedience matters even when the outcome isn't what we expected
How to pursue God's direction while remaining open to Him closing doors
Scripture references:
Hebrews 1:1–2 — God has spoken through His Son
James 4:3 — Examining our motives in prayer
YOUR NEXT STEP:
The next time you feel God leading you toward a decision, don't rely on your feelings alone. Compare it with Scripture, seek godly counsel, and examine your motives. Then move forward in faith, trusting God to direct your steps.
