God isnt speaking to me.....
Q:How do you handle God not speaking to you?
I'm going through the hardest time of my life right now. I've begged and cried out to God to show to me that he's with me, to give me the tiniest sign of hope to hang on to. And I've been met with deafening silence every single time. God has NEVER spoken to me. Not one time, not ever. Never given me a sign of hope. Never shown me he's with me. Never told me to keep going. How do I keep believing in someone who is very clearly ignoring me and has made it extremely obvious that he will continue to do so?
A: He does. By the Bible. 😊😊😊✝️
John 14:6: "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
Hebrews 1:1-2: "In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son."
Philippians 4:6-7: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God."
2 Timothy 3:16-17: "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness."
John 10:27: "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."
John 14:15: "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."
James 1:22: "But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves."
Psalm 119:105: "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."
Hebrews 4:12: "For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword..."
John 17:17: "Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth."
He Gave us this Special Revelation to reveal Himself to us, and to communicate Truth, & to give us all we need for matters pertaining to Faith and life. Men moved by God wrote the Holy Scripture so we would have it. And it testifies of the True Jesus, true Way to salvation and true everlasting Life. We hear from God by these 66 books of Holy Scriptures.
John 4:32-34: Jesus responded to His disciples:"But he said to them, 'I have food to eat that you do not know about.'
Matthew 4:4: "But he answered, 'It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"
1 Peter 2:2: "Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation."
Colossians 3:16: "*Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom*, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God."
Acts 2:42: "*And they devoted themselves to the Apostles' teaching* and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers."
God spoke to us through Jesus and the Apostles, completed Scripture and by it HE speaks to us today. Only Scripture.
*Many will decieve on this, but it is the truth. 🛑Do not let false churches, false teachers and their false followers lead you astray. (Including false believers advice online in "Christian" groups).

2 Corinthians 3:18:
"And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit."
Hebrews 5:12-14: "For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God. You need milk, not solid food, for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil."
Colossians 1:10: "So as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God."

Keep growing in the knowledge of Scripture, to become mature. Take it one step at a time.✨️
What you need to do is Drill down into Scripture, studying it, to find the guidance you need [by topic, situation, etc]. Also through your Sunday School class and Fellowship Bible study where you can ask questions for guidance, as well as your pastor for counsel. 😊✝️
This is why we must be in the Word daily.
God speaks to us through Scripture and we speak to Him in prayer.
Hope that helps.
