About this episode
The episode explores the conditions of discipleship and the importance of hearing God's voice through personal experiences and biblical teachings.
The episode dives into hearing God's voice by examining the conditions of discipleship found in Luke 14: the call to put Jesus above all other relationships, carry one’s cross, and count the cost before following; it contrasts the crowds with true disciples and even uses the Leonidas illustration to highlight strategic surrender and reliance on God; the speaker shares a personal journey from doubt to faith and emphasizes that the Holy Spirit is the primary guide to truth. Takeaways include a practical approach to hearing God: test your sense of promptings against God's will, remain teachable and humble, and trust the Spirit's conviction and guidance rather than relying solely on intellect; peace with God comes through surrender and alignment with His will. ---- Get the original source here: https://www.inspirational.org.nz/collections/all/products/1307 ---- Please support this podcast: Donate or become a member and gain access to our digital archive of 3000+ audio and video files For more Christian teachings, visit inspirational.org.nz ---- ★ Support this podcast ★
