How do you discern if you receive an intrusion of thought or something comes across your mind- if whether or not it is the voice of God? I do believe that the voice of God is the Bible, and scriptures tend to come to mind, however, I listened to a pastor who said that God told her to do this and to do that. What do you suppose?

G'day Shannon: intrusion of thought or something comes across your mind «The second stage is the non-arising of distractions on account of the weakening of the numerous distracting thoughts, and the effortless and natural unidirectional flow of the mind-stuff. At this state, the mind-stuff is favourably disposed towards illumination as the obstacles to such illumination are rendered inoperative.» www.swamivenkatesananda.org/clientupload...

When people spend time with the Lord they get to discern what is of the Lord .God does not speak audibly to most . There is such a thing as Gifts of the Spirit of God .I did a Life in the Spirit Seminar years ago . Most mainline churches give those seminars . For instance there is the gift of knowledge . A person knows from within her /his spirit that someone needs healing of the right knee. That comes in different ways to different people . One may have a little blackboard in his mind . Written on it is right knee . Others its an impression AND THEY KNOW FOR SURE SOMEONE IS BEING HEALED . In a prayer meeting quite often more then one person get the same message

Self-awareness helps. Hatha yoga and meditation teachers will show you how.

Thanks for your input. There are times when a scripture is placed on my heart and then I come across the passage a little later- almost as if it is verification that I need to hear the passage. I believe that sometimes God also tries to speak to us when there is more than one of the same occurrance.

G'day Shannon: a scripture is placed on my heart
I found tantra difficult, and had to quit!  come across the passage
You are obsessed, ritualistic. I need to hear the passage.
«Scrupulosity is a psychological disorder characterized by pathological guilt about moral or religious issues. It is personally distressing, objectively dysfunctional, and often accompanied by significant impairment in social functioning. It is typically conceptualized as a moral or religious form ofobsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD)»
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrupulosity God also tries to speak to us
«An auditory hallucination, or paracusia, is a form of hallucination that involves perceiving sounds without auditory stimulus. A common form involves hearing one or more talking voices. This may be associated with psychotic disorders such asschizophrenia or mania, and holds special significance in diagnosing these conditions.»
