How do you know if something you receive in prayer is actually from God?

In this episode of the Catholic Coaching Podcast, Matt and Erin continue their discernment series by walking through how to test spiritual promptings, private revelations, interior movements, and words received in prayer.

Building on the previous episode about prayer language, they explain how to bring what you receive back into dialogue with God, ask for interpretation, test the spirit, and look at the fruits over time.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How to discern God’s voice from your own thoughts
• Why St. Paul tells us to “test every spirit”
• How to avoid acting too quickly on strong spiritual experiences
• The importance of tone, freedom, humility, and fruit
• How to ask God for interpretation and application
• Why good counsel matters in discernment
• How to know whether a prompting leads to peace, charity, clarity, and deeper communion with God

If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this God, me, or the enemy?” this episode will give you practical tools for discerning what you hear in prayer.
