DIVKnown for his authoritative, dynamic style, John Eckhardt combines instructive, narrative teaching about the role and power of the prophetic in the lives of believers today with succinct, powerful truths that will impact readers’ lives./div

God is not silent. He has a message He knows we cannot live without. He is speaking through His Word, His Son, and His Spirit. He speaks through His creation and in all His glorious attributes, with clarity and majesty. His message may be denied, but He will not let it be ignored. In His sovereign love and grace, He provides the most important message the human family ever encounters. The message is clear, and our eternal destiny is determined by our attention to it. He still speaks.

The world we live in today is driven by communication. It’s never been so easy to hear from family and friends. Media sources can be accessed almost immediately. We read, hear, and consume more information than generations before us would’ve ever thought possible. We can hear any voice we desire to hear instantly. Why is there such a struggle to hear from God? Does the God who created the universe still speak to us today? And if so, why can’t we hear what He’s saying? He still speaks, and He’s provided everything we need to learn to hear Him.

He Still Speaks, Now Listen is a compilation of parables that focus on your inner being. It is from there you will be shown the real you from chapter to chapter, and page to page There will come a time in your life that you must comprehend questions such as What is life? Are you existing or just surviving? Where do you live? We all must die to the power of our negative thoughts. There is no more time left. When you awake, what is more important to you? He Still Speaks, Now Listen answers these questions and the ones that have entered your mind.

Does God still speak to His children? I know that God still speaks to His children. It just takes listening and being aware of our surroundings, to recognize the little things that seem to tug at our hearts. I decided that I wanted to share the lessons that I received from God through some very unusual items and from meditating on God's Word. I wanted others to know that God does speak to them. The parables, as I like to call them, came to me through random items, at random time, and in random places. Lessons came through everyday life, whether I was walking, doing housework, playing, or just relaxing. Some lessons came in the morning, some at midday, and some at night. God is always talking. Take a little time each day to spend special time with God. Cast your cares on Him. Make your petitions known to Him. Once you have poured your whole heart out, just listen. Enjoy the time with Him, knowing He is with you. It doesn't take intelligence. It doesn't take being perfect, doing everything right. Sometimes we can try too hard to hear God, but when we just walk with Him, just enjoy His presence, we then start to hear His voice. All you have to do is take the time with Him. So grab yourself a cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy the parables of today.
