[Music] Seven physical signs God is talking to you. After we received the gift of Salvation, we enjoyed peace with God, and this meant we could have a relationship with God where God is our father and we are his children. One important part of a relationship is communication, and this is also an important part of our relationship with God. We are to talk with God through prayer and hear from him concerning different areas of Our Lives. This means every believer has the ability to hear from God. The question is whether we are maximizing that ability or not. God talks to us through Visions, dreams, the inner voice, the prophetic word, and through his creation. He instructs us concerning steps that we should take and guides Us in every way. The Bible is full of accounts of different people who heard God, from the Old Testament to the New Testament. God many times may be talking to you, but you are failing to pay attention and listen to him because you do not know when God was going to talk to Samuel the prophet the first time he

heard God calling him, but he did not know he was God. He assumed that it was Eli, the priest and his master, so he went to him. This happened up to three times before Eli discerned that it must have been God that was trying to talk to him. And Eli told Samuel what to say as a reply. That day, God spoke to Samuel about different things. Many of us are like Samuel. God is calling us and talking to us, but we do not know that he is the one. We assume that it is someone else and something else. We have missed out on the voice of God many times, and this has hurt us. There are times God wants to prepare us for the future or warn us about something, but because we did not listen to him, we have no idea. Sometimes, there are physical signs that God is talking to us so that we can pay attention to his voice. Here are seven of them. One, lack of sleep or waking up for no reason in the middle of the night. Sometimes, you may realize that you are

struggling with sleeping for an extended time until a particular hour of the night, or you wake up consistently for no reason at a particular hour of the night. This may be a physical sign that God is trying to talk to you. God is calling your attention at that hour to listen to him. When we are going through the day, everywhere is so noisy and busy, and even our minds are filled with noise, and it is hard to identify God's voice in the midst of all that chaos. However, the night is the time of peace and quiet when our brains can finally pause on the million thoughts and hear the still small voice from God. When you struggle with sleep or wake up in the middle of the night, it may also be a call to prayer. So instead of wasting that time, why not spend time praying and opening your heart to hear from God? Just ask God to show you why he woke you up or why he kept you awake, and wait on him. Next time you are struggling with sleep, use that time to wait on God.

would be much easier to hear God in the quiet of the night rather than the busy hours of the day. When we study the gospel, we would notice that Jesus always spent time praying alone in the early hours of the morning when most other people were not yet awake. He understood something that we need to learn: the importance of harnessing times of quiet like the nighttime or the early hours of the morning. If you have been experiencing this sign for a while now, you know what to do the next time it happens. Two, when your heart is anxious for no reason and you experience so much stress, this may be another sign that God is trying to tell you something. One of the fruits of the Spirit is peace, and this is something we should enjoy as Believers. So, when our hearts are filled with anxiety and we are worried, something may be wrong. Matthew 11:28 says, Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. When our hearts are filled with worries and we are endlessly stressed, it may

mean that we are not enjoying rest from the presence of God. When Jesus said we should come unto him and he will give us rest, he knew how the worries of this world would become heavy burdens for us, and he knew that the way to ease that burden was to spend time in his presence. Sometimes, having your heart filled with worries may be telling you that it is time to spend time in God's presence again. It may be an indication that you have gotten so busy that you have not spent time praying or studying the word, and God is reminding you to come to the place of prayer. Anxiety and stress may be an indication that something is wrong, especially when there is no physical cause for it. So, you may need to spend time waiting on God and seeking God's direction when it is a decision that is causing you to be anxious. You may also be experiencing anxiety because you have not learned to surrender everything to God. God may be using this season to call you to surrender all your worries to him. Philippians 4: 6-7 says

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with Thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. As opposed to being anxious, God can use His peace to speak to you. Experiencing peace when you should naturally be full of panic may be a sign that God is talking to you. It may be a sign that God is telling you that everything will be fine and that what you are passing through is only for a season. When you experience the peace of God that does not make sense to other people, it is usually clear that God is with you. This can be very reassuring, especially when nothing else in your circumstance shows the presence of God. So, the presence of either worries or the peace of God can be a physical sign that God is talking to you. Three, when you hear a message or receive a word over and over again. Sometimes when God wants to get through to us, He uses repetition. He makes us hear or see something over and over.

again till we finally realize that it is not just a coincidence. Have you ever had a situation when you needed answers about something, and then it seems that everywhere you turn, you are receiving the same answers? You go to church, and that is the topic of your pastor's sermon. You call a friend, and suddenly they bring up a situation around the same topic. You are scrolling through Instagram, and it is still the same. It almost seems like you keep hearing the same thing over and over again. This may be God's way of speaking to you. It may be the physical manifestation of the fact that God is speaking to you. Instead of ignoring and dismissing it as a coincidence, you can just pray to God to receive clarity on the topic and to be sure He is the one speaking to you through this means. Four, when you experience illness, God wants you to be in perfect health, and that is why He made healing available for us in Christ. The Bible is full of accounts of people who were healed, delivered, and even

raised from the dead. Although God may not be the one sponsoring your illness, he may speak to you through it. John 5:14: Later, Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, See, you are well again. Stop sinning, or something worse may happen to you. The backstory to this statement was that Jesus had recently healed this man who had been paralyzed for a while. After healing him, Jesus had slipped into the crowd. When Jesus met him later on, he told him to stop sinning so something worse would not happen to him. The cause of his sickness was sin, and because Jesus cared about him and did not want him to suffer again, he spoke to him about it. Sometimes, God may speak to us through our sickness. He may use that season to teach us faith in him and to teach us to walk away from a kind of lifestyle. Does this mean that everyone who is sick is sick because of sin? Of course not. Jesus was walking with his disciples when they saw someone who was born blind in John chapter 9:2-3. His

disciples asked him, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? Neither this man nor his parents sinned, said Jesus, but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. The blind man was born blind not because of sin, but so that God's work may be displayed in his life. Jesus went on to heal him. If you are experiencing any illness, know that the word of God provides for your healing. Confess the word and listen to whatever God will teach you in this season. Five: an open door or opportunity. Another physical sign that God is talking to you is that he opens a door for you or makes an opportunity available for you. Sometimes you may have been praying to God for direction on what next to do or where next to go, and it seems as if you had not heard anything from him. In such a season where a door opens that points you in the right direction, it may be a way that God is speaking to you. When we look around us, we sometimes find the answer to our

prayers when Moses and the Israelites needed to cross the Red Sea. What God used was a rod. God used what they had in their hands to help them. God may be using that open door as a way of speaking to you concerning the next step to take. Six, a physical encounter you cannot explain. Sometimes when God talks to us, it can be quite direct. We can have a physical encounter that our minds cannot deny. Here, God talks to us so clearly that we are so sure that it is the voice of God. An example of this is when we hear the audible voice of God. Other people around you may not hear it, but you are so sure that your ears heard God speak. Moses had an encounter like this when he saw the Burning Bush. Moses saw a bush that was burning but was not consumed. That must have been such a strange sight for him because he drew close to see what was going on. It was then he heard a voice speaking to him. There is no way he could deny such a physical encounter. Another person that

heard a physical encounter was Apostle Paul. He was traveling in an attempt to persecute more Christians when he saw a bright light. He heard a voice speaking to him, but those around him did not hear anything. The voice said, After this encounter, Paul was blind for some days before God sent a brother to pray for him. When you have a physical encounter, you know that it is the Lord who is speaking to you, and you cannot deny it. Not everyone has this spiritual experience, but for those who do, this is a physical sign that God is talking to you. Seven by talking or confirming his word through those he put around you. God may talk to you through people around you. This happens especially when he wants to confirm a word that he has spoken to you in secret. He can use your parents, friends, members of your church, your pastor, or your mentor to reach you. He can even use strangers to speak to you sometimes. God may use this sign when you have drawn so far from him that you no longer listen to his voice. He uses

other people to talk to you because he cares for you and wants to reach you even when it seems that you are so far away. When God reaches you through this means, do not despise it, but let your heart be open to receive God's word. This is the reason we have some gifts of the Spirit, like the gift of Prophecy, word of knowledge, and Word of Wisdom. Many times when you receive prophetic words, it just helps you remember that God sees you and loves you enough to send someone to speak to you. If you are watching this video now and you have been going through a hard time and you have been wondering if God cares about you at all, I want you to know that God sees you and he is with you. He never stopped loving you for one minute, and he will help you get through this season. You did not stumble on this video by mistake. God is with you. Never forget that and never let any lie of the enemy convince you otherwise. God may use physical signs to

talk to us, but there are times that he does not. Hearing from God is not always dramatic; sometimes it can be as simple as studying the word of God and seeing what he says of you. It may be as simple as having a knowing in your heart about something, and it may be as simple as hearing God speak through your thoughts. In whatever way God chooses to speak to us, the important thing is that we listen to him and pay attention to his words. Pray with me: Dear Lord, I thank you because you are with me and because you speak to me. Thank you for your unfailing love for me. Thank you because of the different ways you speak to me and reach me. Lord, I pray that my heart will be sensitive to your voice, that I will not struggle to know when you are speaking to me, and I will pay attention to listening to your word and obeying you. Thank you, Lord, for always hearing me. In Jesus' name, amen. [Music]
