5 Tips to Hear God for Big Decisions

Sooner or later, you’ll have to make your move. Do you go this way or that way? Do you take this path or the other? There are decisions that mark a new season of your life and choices that lead to exciting adventures or new experiences. After nearly 30 years…

How to Know You’re Hearing God, Part 1 [Episode 141]

The question I’m asked more than any other is, “How do I know if I’m hearing from God, myself or the enemy?” Well in this episode of Spirit Connection, I’m going to help you build a foundation for hearing God and also to cultivate the spiritual atmosphere around you. These…

Prophetic Word: The Seer Gift and Anointing Returns

“‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days,…

You’re Too Blessed to Be Stressed

There’s a realization that sets in when you’ve been in a hard time for a while and it seems the difficulties aren’t ending any time soon. So, what does this mean? How can you move forward when the storm is still raging around you? My message to you today is…

Growing in Spiritual Authority [Episode 139]

It’s an uneasy time right now, but I want you to be able to say, “I’m blessed in the mess.” This week on Spirit Connection I talk about how to understand and develop spiritual authority in your life. It may not look and sound the way you’ve expected! But you…

3 Ways to Have Eyes to See

Now is the time to get on the Lord’s timetable. But how can you position yourself when there’s so much noise surrounding you? You need to tap into the seer gift, which empowers you to see what’s going on from God’s perspective. This is how Jesus calmed the storm, walked…

The Sound of Heaven is Filling the Earth

I feel an urgency in the spirit surrounding my latest prophetic word that God is filling the Earth with new joy. I released last week that the joy is here now, but we have to storm the Gate of Joy to walk through it. Have you ever noticed that sometimes…

Open the Heavens to Get Your Joy Back [Episode 137]

In this episode of Spirit Connection, we talk more about the prophetic word of “7 days, 7 weeks and 7 months from Pentecost” and the Gate of Joy that is opening on July 19, 2020. It may be hard to imagine how joy could come in the midst of all…

Storm the Gate of Joy!

A Gate of Joy is before you! Are you going to walk through it? The prophetic word I gave in June is that medical and supernatural solutions for the coronavirus are being released from Heaven. Seven weeks after Pentecost—which is July 19—a Gate of Joy is going to open up.…

Prophetic Word: Joy is Returning to the House

At Pentecost (May 31, 2020), the Lord spoke to me that in 7 weeks—July 19, 2020—the Gate of Joy would open over people. You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to…

Move into Divine Opportunity

Divine opportunity is knocking on your door right now. Before you let your thoughts tell you, this cannot be possible, I want you to take a minute … and breathe. Yes, the world seems to have gone crazy. Yes, there’s a lot going on. But that doesn’t change the fact…

What to Do If You Feel Forgotten by God

Have you ever gone through a season of life when nothing seems to be working for you? You may even begin to feel forgotten by God. You were promised all these amazing things, but they never seem to come to pass. Your feelings may feel even more intense due to…

Do you have a goal you’ve been meaning to pursue, but haven’t accomplished yet? Many of us have heard God concerning our destiny and have many wonderful dreams or great ideas, but—when it comes to taking action—we have trouble making progress with concrete steps towards these goals. So how can we turn these dreams into reality? Here are four practical steps you can take right now!
1. Decide what to focus on first.
We are in a season right now when God is calling many people to write books, start ministries or businesses, or do things that you might have put off. The hardest part of this is simply getting started. It’s important to understand that saying “yes” to one doesn’t mean saying “no” to all the others. Sometimes we have to say “not right now” to some ideas so we can focus our efforts towards completing one task at a time.
2. Take small steps towards your dream every day.
When I was writing my new book, Hearing God Every Day, it was hard to find the time and energy to take on this large project the Lord had asked me to do. It’s easy to put off things or procrastinate when this happens because the task at hand feels so big. This is why I chose the strategy to do one small step towards my goal every day. Remember, every book was written one word at a time—just like every goal was accomplished one task at a time! “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.” Zechariah 4:10 NLT There’s no need to feel like you have to accomplish your goal all at once. It takes time to make dreams come alive. Also important is knowing how to stop the dream thief of procrastination.
3. Do what works for you.
I also needed to write my book in the way that works for me. I put up large poster boards on my wall so I could visually see how my book would come together. God designed you to function in a specific way. You don’t have to fight against it—work with it! But by the grace of God I am what I am. 1 Corinthians 15:10 NIV The world needs to hear the message God has given you in the unique way God spoke it to you.
4. Get a solid support system.
I brought together a small group of friends who helped pull the message out of me and helped organize it for my latest book, Hearing God Every Day. Don’t feel as if you have to accomplish your dreams all on your own. God will often send friends, leaders and partners to help you! This is a time for your dreams to become a reality! I can’t wait to see what happens. Blessings! Doug Addison DougAddison.com P.S. Need help hearing the voice of God in your everyday life?
