I know the feeling. God spoke to me today and He said finish up with your game, and I was so wrapped up in it that I messed 🆙 I should have STOPPED right then. I’m learning from my mistakes because I want to hear from my Father Abba♥️🙏😇God bless you brothers and sisters in Jesus name Amen 🙏♥️

How can you react and quickly obey a command that's obscure, not very direct? A command that's just a tug at the heart, a gut feeling or whatnot; what if your gut or your feeling is wrong? What if you misinterpreted the command. Would not reacting quickly and being "so sure of yourself that you're doing God's will" be dangerous? Philip had the certainty that God was speaking with him, commanding him. A lot of us don't get that luxury, there's a lot of uncertainty surrounding what he wants us to do. At least for me there is and it's been a source of deep frustration.

Example: Some sermon I hear talks about the work they're doing digging wells in African villages and my brain goes "oh, maybe I should help out?" should I interpret that as God's command suddenly, quickly, quit my job and take off for several months to Africa to help dig wells certain that I'm following God's command for me? Or did maybe I jump the gun based on a random thought or feeling?

These are the conundrum's I'm left with. I really need the Lord to speak with me and yet he's remained radio silent even though I'm certain he exists, he's there and he hears me.
