How to hear God?

As Christians, we have the Paraclete Indwelling Spirit, John 14:

17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

  1. The Paraclete speaks to our consciences (Romans 8:16). This is not a physical sound wave to be heard in your ears. It is not a voice in your head either. It is an intuition in your spirit. You can sense the rhema-word quietly.
  2. We hear from the written word of God (2 Timothy 3:16-17). I employ first-order logic to interpret the Bible.
  3. We hear from mature spiritual Christian brothers and sisters.
  4. A lot of the time, God does not have any particular rhema-word for us. Then, let the peace of Christ guides us.

John 14:

26 But the Helper [Paraclete], the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
