No, I dont. If you mean a 'formula' or a "3 steps to prayer success' or something like that, no I dont. HE is Creator GOD and we are not. "It is HE who hath made us and not we ourselves" (Psalm 100). Also from Jeremiah, "HE is the potter, and we are the clay, can the clay tell the Potter what to do?" I guess my point is, we cant demand that HE speak to us in any way or time frame. We cant demand anything of Him. I tried that. I had started hearing from GOD and it was wonderful and then I didnt hear Him and I was terrified and very angry about it, and after a couple days I finally just had to bow my heart before Him and let God be God. I wanted Him still to speak, but HE would speak when HE wanted to on His terms and it would be good and right and perfect. A few days later, I heard Him again.

HE may not speak the way you expect or want. I want you to be okay with that. Sometimes it's the still small voice, sometimes it's through another, sometimes it's a nudge or a gentle push or holding back.

Answer the questions and find out. okay what are all the questions? Okay number your answers. Give serious answers, try not to say i don't know. 1. What do you expect to find in your result of seeking Him? 2. Did you do what you were supposed to do? 3. Why do you need His voice? 4. What do you expect Him to say? 5. His sheep know His voice, what does it take to be His sheep?

Unlike Waris, I will not play games with you and force you to answer my questions first before I answer yours. Me personally, I do hear Him, in various ways. HE has spoken in dreams, sometimes as I wake up (not audibly), through people (confirmations), the Bible, a sense of direction to do/not do something, etc. I have talked to Him and He has talked to me in conversation form (again, not audible). Sometimes I hear Him when I am writing (journal), sometimes when listening to worship music, sometimes in conversation with other believers, and more recent in bowing down/laying prostrate (facedown) before Him. Just so you know i asked first. This isn't a game, these questions will help. You should know if you didn't lie a previous time I tried to help you and get mad because i asked you questions that didn't need to happen if you would have just told the truth the first time. 1. Did you do what i told you to do that you said you would do? (That was over 2 months ago) The last time i checked, all liars have their part in the lake of fire, God hates a lying tongue, Holy Ghost is the Spirit of truth, Jesus Christ is the truth, liars are of their father the devil especially ones that try to disguise themselves with a different username. 2. Should i be listening to your advice about hearing God?

Waistedyears555@hotmail.com -- I think a good starting place is to realize that our status and identity in Christ is not based on how well we hear the Lord or see in the spirit or feel God's presence... or anything like that. It's quite possible for a person to truly be a Child of God, a joint-heir with Jesus, and a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven - without hearing the Lord's voice or those kinds of things. We should start with a confidence that we're in Christ and one of His. So we begin from a place of trust and confidence and rest - knowing that we belong to the King of the Universe. This should be our foundation. (Perhaps you're like this already, but I couldn't tell for sure. So I wanted to mention this stuff.)
Once this foundation is in place, then we can absolutely seek more of Him in a variety of ways, and particularly to hear Him more clearly and more often. I'm happy to help if I can, and I'm glad that others are willing and have already been doing so.
I think I'll leave it there for now. I'll be praying for you and perhaps I'll have something more to add later.
As for this issue with Waris and ~J~, perhaps we could handle that elsewhere if necessary, and maybe try to leave things behind us and move on as much as possible.

Well she brought my name up for no reason. And last time she decided to lie and instead of calling her out so she can repent, all of you guys wrongly accused me. 1. How can I move on when you guys instigate things and still haven’t given a reason why you can’t see who started the problem?

OK, in one of your responses you said "I don't have the strength." I think one of the goals should be to make sure you keep your cup full - to stay full of the Holy Spirit. You can look for videos about keeping your cup full on Doug's Youtube channel if you want, but one of the main ideas is to just ask.
"...how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!" (Luke 11:13)
You can check out the rest of the passage for a better sense of the context, but the idea is that if we simply ask the Father to give us more of the Holy Spirit, then He will give more to us. This can help to give you strength, as well as things like love, joy, peace, etc., and may even have a more direct impact on your ability to hear His voice.

In regarding 'blasphemy' if you are concerned about it, then believe me you have NOT committed the 'unpardonable sin'. So many people get tripped up by this. I said ****** holy spirit and that makes me believe I commited the unforgivable sin and what sort of confirms it for me is that I don't hear his voice I want to be forgiven and be friends again with the Holy Spirit problem is I don't hear gods voice after trying hard for 17 days how did you get there? (hearing God) . I believe God has forgiven you for this no matter how many times the enemy whispers blasphemous thoughts do not feel condemned. Rebuke it in the name of Jesus.

Jesus Christ says that if you love Him you will obey Him. As sheep who follow the shepherd, so His followers will know His voice. If you want a relationship you will love him and if you love him you will obey him. 1. Why are you reading the bible? 2. What does He say to do? If you want to work on hearing a voice you can look at the books and videos that teach you how. 3. Are you working for relationship or working for a voice or working to feel happy?
