How do you know what you're cooking is burning? To perceive anything whether good or bad, it means your nostrils are sensitive. For example, when you have a flu, and your nose is blocked, you hardly can perceive anything around you.
So it is with hearing from God. If your heart is clogged with other things of life and very insensitive, you would hardly determine what God is saying per time. If your heart is ladden with evil thoughts of people, friends, your pastor, then you'd hardly see anything good in them.
Note that we perceive the love of God, we don't wait till we feel it, we simply trust. Knowing that God loves you and cares about you is a matter of trusting His word and promises; not waiting till you feel. Trusting in His assuring word is what keeps a child of God going and its only when you're sensitive to His ways, that you'd get the best. Remain Blessed!
firstly, hearing from him psalm 32:8 and Isa 30:21

wonderful contribution, God bless you! if we do not listen, then how do we know what to obey? If we do not pay attention, then how do we get directions? If we must hear or know what God is saying, then we must create that conducive atmosphere to get the needed reception. Let's be more quiet on the inside and be more ready to hear than to speak.
