Personal Revelation - God Teaches You How To Think With Him
from ToddTalks--Spirit By Design: Your Weekly Survival Guide · host Todd Andrewsen
Send us Fan MailIf you’ve ever second-guessed a prompting, you’re not alone. We get honest about what personal revelation actually feels like when it shows up in normal life: a thought that lands with quiet clarity, a feeling of peace that won’t let go, or that moment when your mind and heart agree and you know you need to act.We talk about why God expects us to think, not outsource our agency to algorithms, anxiety, or anyone else. The pattern is simple but demanding: study things out, pray, ask, listen, then act. Along the way we connect scriptures and modern counsel, including Doctrine and Covenants 8 on revelation in the mind and heart, Joseph Smith’s James 1:5 question, and President Russell M. Nelson’s warning that we won’t be able to function in the latter days without the Holy Ghost. In a world of deepfakes, fake news, and constant noise, spiritual discernment is not optional, it’s survival.We also unpack a powerful analogy from Elder Dale G. Renlund: revelation works within a framework, like aviation. Inside the laws, you can safely use incredible capability; outside the framework, you crash and burn. That framework includes scripture study, prayer, covenants, and stewardship. And we push on the practical challenge many of us face: getting quiet enough to hear God. Stillness, reflection, and even meditation can create space for the Spirit of truth to guide us.If you want a clearer way to recognize promptings and trust what you receive, listen now, then share this with a friend, leave a five-star review, and follow Todd Talks Spirit by Design so you don’t miss the next episode.Support the showYou can reach me anytime at email: [email protected] @toddtalks_ig
