Nelson Mandela said: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.” Indeed, God often speaks to our hearts using our own language. Paul’s Damascus road experience confirms this fact: “I heard a voice speaking to me and saying in the HEBREW LANGUAGE, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? … I have appeared to you for this purpose…” (Acts 26:12-18). If we honestly desire to know God’s will, He’ll make it abundantly clear. Don’t fret about His purpose for your life, or what to do on a pressing issue. He’ll speak in your language—He’ll speak to your heart. There’ll be no doubt in your mind.—Samuel Koranteng-Pipim
