As applied to the evil we see being exposed today.

LaWanda –♪♪ I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice to honor you, O my soul rejoice.  Take joy, my King, in what you hear.  May it be a sweet, sweet sound in Your ear! ♪♪ O Jesus, this is my prayer today.  This is my prayer, dear Lord.

We make “tuning to flow” one of the four keys to hearing God’s voice. However, I have read three books recently on prayer and none mention “flow” as being what His voice in our hearts sounds like. This is extremely sad.

Politics often becomes extremely negative. This is very unfortunate, as it creates animosity and division. The Spirit leaves when there is no harmony (Ps. 132). God loves the peacemaker and calls us to be peacemakers.

I don't like listening to either conservative or liberal news as both paint the opposite in the worst possible light and put them down. This tarnishes one's spirit. I don’t want my spirit tarnished. So it is crucial I read limited amounts of political news, and journal regularly and see God’s purpose in all that is going on around me. Jesus did. We can!

The journaling below is from Kenneth Day has received his master's degree from Christian Leadership University and is currently working on his doctorate. He learned to hear God's voice in CLU's Communion With God course. Does God want you to also experience this training?

LaWanda – O Jesus, precious Lord, ♪♪ “I enter the Holy of Holies.  I enter by the Blood of the Lamb.” ♪♪ O Lord there is no other way under heaven whereby we must be saved!
