Accessible

There are loads of good books out now on Hearing God but this is the most accessible and concise I have ever read. Peter Lord accomplishes this spiritually, scripturally, experientially, logically, comprehensively and simply! That is quite an accomplishment and it is obvious the Holy Spirit helped him write it. Thank you, Peter Lord.

Prepare To Have Life In Your Prayer Life!

This is a brilliant presentation by a brilliant author. Like many others, I first heard of Peter Lord through James and Betty Robinson's Life Today program. I bought the book after hearing Brother Lord's testimony. Prayer will never be appreciated if it is beleived to be one way communication. This written work declares the truth regarding two way communication with God. Reading this book carefully and applying the principles presented will completely change your life. This is an excellent book for both the Bible scholar and the New Christian alike.

Masterpiece!

Take your time in reading this book. Relish it. It is deep, rich, and full of insight on hearing God. He reminds us of the statement made by Jesus, "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." An analogy helps make his point on the importance of hearing God, that like skiing downhill blind, we cannot see even a portion of the future, but the Holy Spirit is our Guide.Two way communication is vital to relationships. In our relationship to God, listening is necessary in prayer. The one who listens to God and responds positively will hear even more, Lord writes. In order to listen effectively, external distractions must be eliminated.There are many practical tips on hearing God more effectively in this book. A review doesn't do justice to the richness of the content. I highly recommend this book.

Great Book!!!

This book is a great book. It is full of great ways to think and "hear" how the Lord speaks to us. It is full of information and ways to communicate with God. I recommend it for anyone who may not know where to start.

Practicle Handbook for Christians who want to hear from God.

Back Cover: Does the Bible teach that we can and should hear God speak to us today? How can we hear God's voice? How can we know whether the thoughts are God's, or from the devil? How can we find God's will for most things of life unless he tells us? Peter Lord answers these questions as he underscores the necessity of learning how to listen for the voice of God. He believes that for many Christians prayer life is so difficult because it is basically a one-way conversation. This handbook is an easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide to two-way communication with God. Those who pursue such a relationship will be rewarded with a vigorous prayer life coupled with a dynamic and personal encounter with the God who reveals himself in his Word.
