How to hear from my Word


Many read the Bible at face value, as if they were reading a normal book and feel they have gained understanding and know how to apply it. Egregious things have been done in my name because these readers have a flat, human understanding of the Bible. My Word will be misinterpreted unless I, myself, am revealed in it by my Holy Spirit. That’s because my Word is living and active (Hebrews 4:12): If you allow it, the words of the Bible actively get inside your heart and change you from the inside out. 

My Word is me talking to you, and you cannot hear me properly unless that Word is illuminated and infused by my Holy Spirit. Whenever you open the Bible, say a prayer that my Holy Spirit will show you what I'm saying through it, and help you to apply it and hear me speaking directly to you.

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

About the Author

Cyndi is a Christian writer with a heart for grace and freedom in Christ. Through fresh reflections and scripture‑rooted devotionals, she invites readers into rest and relationship. She longs for those who see themselves only as “sinners saved by grace” to know they are truly good in Christ, and for those who strive and battle, to hear that the fight is finished. Her writing is shaped by the promise from Isaiah 40:1–2 — God’s call to “Comfort, comfort My people with gentle, compassionate words. Speak tenderly from the heart to revive those in shame, and proclaim that their warfare is over. Their debt of sin is paid for, and they will not be treated as guilty. Prophesy to them that they have received from the hand of God twice as many blessings as all their sins” (paraphrase from TPT). She lives in Florida with her husband of 37 years and their dog, Smudge.
