After reading all the comments about people and god's interaction with them, I just realized something. God has been speaking to me all along. And here I thought it was just my internal voice of reason. Foolish me!

God told me directly that anyone claiming God told them anything directly are making it up.

Romans 2:14-16 (Contemporary English Version)
14 Some people naturally obey the Law's commands, even though they don't have the Law. 15 This proves that the conscience is like a law written in the human heart. And it will show whether we are forgiven or condemned, 16 when God appoints Jesus Christ to judge everyone's secret thoughts, just as my message says.
Stephen, sorry for my ignorance in all things "church", but what is a prayer meeting?
Naturally there is prayer any time we meet. However, a "prayer meeting" is generally though as an intercessory meeting, for the lost, for the saints, for whatever and whoever the Spirit puts on our hearts.
1 Timothy 2:1 (English Standard Ve rsion)
Pray for All People
1 First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people Lately we have been led to take these meeting out of the various function halls we have been meeting in and instead to peoples home's who choose to host them. Blessings, Stephen -

Lol @ OTWO.
The only thing god put in my heart was cholesterol. An innate desire for chips and burgers.

However, you need more Spirit experience! Sure, He can pop up where and when He likes but He also likes people to seek Him out. You can easily find Him in the hearts of those who have been born again. You will find the more of Him they have the more you will be drawn to them and the places they hang out.
We'll see what happens. I'm surrounded by believers.

From slaughteringthesheep website-explaining how another Christian with the Holy Spirit wants to help you-
Here is what Mills says on his website:
Just last week the supernatural fragrant oil began to flow from my feet in abundance as we began to worship the Lord. It began coming with the fragrance of roses - this smell is symbolic for the fragrance of Christ, He is the Rose of Sharon. We placed cloth material under my feet so that the oil and fragrance would flow into the fabric. We have gathered the oil in this way so that it can be used as a point of contact, just like the fabric that was taken from the Apostle Paul in order that extraordinary miracles would begin to be released!
If you get one of these cloths, here's what Mills claims you can expect:
* Your Family To Be Saved!
* Your Finances To Flourish!
* Your Body To Be Healed!
* Your Addictions To Be Broken!And all of that from his feet! If you get one of these cloths, Mills says there is a supernatural transferal of anointing that accompanies these cloths. He says:
I want to send you one of these glory cloths that has been saturated with this supernatural oil that flows from heaven! I believe that there is a supernatural transferance of anointing that will happen as you receive this special cloth for your needs. I also want to give you an opportunity to sow into this realm of God's manifest glory. (emphasis theirs)
Yeah.
Oil that flows from heaven by way of Joshua Mills' feet? Not remotely!
Mills goes on to say:
For every generous financial seed of any amount that is sown into the glory this month, we will be sending you a free "glory cloth" that has been saturated with the supernatural fragrant oil that has flowed miraculously during times of worship. We will also be sending you "31 Promises For A Month Of Blessing" - you can read, declare and prophesy these promises over your life and begin to see them come to pass.
Ah...and there it is. The bottom line. Isn't there always a bottom line? To get the "glory cloth" that is SOAKED WITH OIL FROM HIS FEET, Mills says you have to sow a GENEROUS financial seed of ANY amount .........................................and then you'll get the cloth for free.

Yes, our conscience is that part of God that is left within Us.

Why is it that the only way to see, feel "him" is to go to your gatherings or your church? Can any of you just pass me his address so I can input it to my gps. That would be alot easier.
Why is it after I pray fervently to "him" I here no voices? Weird. What am I doing wrong? I also am around many of these "born again" people. Good folks for sure but still no voices. Why is that?
I sincerely ask, really.

* Your Family To Be Saved!

* Your Body To Be Healed!
* Your Addictions To Be Broken!This is, among other things, called the prosperity gospel and it has no biblical support. God does not promise that your life will be easy when you come to Him. In fact, just the opposite. He promises hardship at this time. But He also promises a reward. The prosperity gospel is not the message of true Christianity, IMO.
