19 | How Asking for Signs DESTROYED My Discernment and How the Holy Spirit Helped Me with My Confusion

from Tune Into the Holy Spirit | Daily Prayer, Discernment, Trusting God, Biblical Encouragement, Distracted · host Chloe Hwang

"God, if it's you, please confirm what You've said with _____." Sound like you? Girl, you're not alone. In this episode, I share about a season where I asked the Holy Spirit coooonstantly to confirm His word to me about my future husband. The bulk of my daily prayer and quiet time was spent absolutely spiraling... I really struggled with discernment in this season, and I did so many things wrong. Instead of seeking God's Presence, I was desperate for immediate answers. Instead of resting on Biblical encouragement and what I knew to be true about God, I fell into anxiety and confusion. I hope that this story and the things that I learned will give you second-hand knowledge and wisdom, so that you don't have to walk through what I did. What you'll get: a vivid picture of what not to do (but why asking for signs is so alluring), what the Bible tells us about discerning God's will and about Biblical wisdom, and hands-on practicals for what to do when you are confused and in a spiral around hearing God. God's voice is something He wants you to hear! Sis, be encouraged and keep trusting God, even in the waiting. If you want to grow in discernment and learn to hear the Holy Spirit for yourself, and to trust in God more, this episode is for you.
