Do you have a daily devotional? The Lord speaks to my prier through my Daily Bread devotion. I pray every morning but its like I speak to my best friend. Afterward I like to do my devotional. God uses my devotional to answer my prayers which I prayed just before. It's personal like he was sitting next to me. I don't know how He talks to others, but God has spoken to me that way too many times for it to be some fluke. It has left me in awe at times. I strongly believe we should pray every day knowing Jesus is right there and he wants to talk to us. Edited July 25, 2022 by Mike Mclees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is the last time you did? Can you talk to Him like he is sitting next to you ? Does God speak back to you? In the morning when I start and at night when I finish. For sure. I try to practice the presence of God during the day. Not always successfully/constantly. I still work in my shop throughout the week and try to consult God regularly, giving thanks when things are going well, or heed an instinctive halt to check something I'm doing, and often readjust a setting done wrong. More thanks. I come up with praises when stuff fits first time, and am constantly saying " O you of little faith. (and sorry Lord) Often wondered what it was like when Jesus was a young carpenters apprentice, did He also talk to the heavenly Father during His work. When He was learning and smashed his fingers with the hammer driving a peg, did He just smile, or did He as fully man, sinless, praise the Father instead of cry out in pain like I might? How did He vent? I often consult God when I'm typing a reply on the forum, like just now. Am I building someone up, am I edifying someone, or am I only trying to impress. I hope it is an insight/experience to benefit someone. God somehow will usually let me know with a sense of confidence, or a feeling to rewrite it. Not uncommon for me to do this several times, and then delete it. So yes, He speaks, but usually through His word, that I have within me, scanning my thoughts, and keeps the checks and balances.

God does not speak to people so much as He gives us understanding and word packets. The Bible is pretty clear that we are to be a pleasant aroma before God. The angels mix our prayers with incense before the alter of God and the Golden Bowel. Long after the message is delivered we are still trying to make sense out of what was revealed to us. The angels work with us to help us understand. When I was going through a divorce my wife claimed I was hearing voices. The attorneys subpoena and affidavit me. Even my own attorney turned against me. But I do not hear voices so I just explained to them how God "talks" to people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
