RE: "hearing voices"...God doesn't speak in an audible voice, at least not to me.....it's a much clearer voice than that. It's so clear and so right-on, precise, and pure in the message, perfect in the timing, and the power of it. It's also something that I clearly wouldn't have come up with on my own. And is always what's best for me. Only then do I know for sure it's from God.
It doesn't happen often...not every week, nor every month even...not to me anyway. It sometimes happens to me just after a deeply sincere heartfelt prayer, or a profound moment in life. And always when my relationship is close with Him. If I'm in a state of disobedience, not reading scripture, not prayerful, or not seeking Him first in all things, then I hear nothing. And that happens because I'm not perfect.
Disclaimer: You may call this post proselytizing but it's no more proselytizing than atheists, agnostics, and general naysayers posting their opinions, thoughts, and beliefs to readers of a different persuasion. I have no interest in changing minds of those who don't want it. But I do have an interest in my freedoms of speech and religion.
