#12 Stop Saying "God Told Me"

Send us a textIn this episode, I discuss the implications of claiming divine communication, particularly the phrase 'God told me.' I emphasize the importance of using language that reflects personal conviction rather than asserting divine authority. The conversation explores the risks associated with misusing such claims, the consequences of spiritual abuse, and offers alternative ways to express one's faith. I also provide insights on discerning God's voice through scripture, peace, wise counsel, and the fruits of the Spirit, ultimately encouraging listeners to approach their faith with humility and discernment.God does speak, but we must be careful with our language.Saying 'God told me' can be manipulative and risky.There are real-world consequences to claiming divine messages.We should express our feelings of guidance without claiming infallibility.Trusting in God involves submission, not just hearing a voice.Discerning God's voice requires checking against scripture and community advice.Peace is a sign of God's guidance, not the absence of fear.Using spiritual language can lead to misunderstandings and doubts.Faith is about being faithful, not just sounding spiritual.We need to focus on how God communicates through various means.
