It is a unique experience, but it wasn't what I heard but what I didn't that proved to be the important thing. After hearing the voice the though came, why would an entity that has the ability to speak out of thin air need you [me] to do anything for him....
And it was like Really! (Why would the LORD be dependent upon a mortal to do for Him) And while it sounded like He was chuckling as I heard, "Don't listen to voices!" While the experience never really made much sense to me except until just a few years back when I had read the writings regarding there being two distinct classes of thought, one being the thought that we ourselves form from reason and reflection and the other being the thought that bolts into our minds.
While it still didn't make sense at that point, shortly afterwards I begin having problems regarding my property lines for my home. Having put a storage building and fence in the backyard, the neighbor to the side and the neighbor who waited until after extensive work have been put in before raising any concerns/objections. Being as reasonably sure of my position in the matter I suggested that if they had a grievance the only thing I could say would be to talk to the City. Which the did and when the City official came out he cited the one neighbor next to my property who was building an addition on his house without a permit. Of course that raised the tensions, not to mention my concerns having found a serious flaw in the deed to the property.
In a 100 year old subdivision one would think the issues of boundaries and property lines would have been resolved, yet when I purchased the property I still purchased Title Insurance and I filed a claimed so that they would bear the burden of the expense of resulting the any issues such as additional surveys or whatever the situation could lead to with the neighbors etc.
The long and short was the Title Insurer stalled for months, then reassigning my matter to another Claims attorney that again lead to delays and the point where he wouldn't return my calls. So one morning I was basically out of options other than litigating the matter since I couldn't get the Title Insurer to either resolved the matter or deny the claim which I would need to speak the Claims Attorney which of course wasn't returning my calls.
So I considering going around the claims attorney's direct line by calling the number of the legal assistant at the Insurer who had notified me months earlier that the claim had been reassigned. Then I thought to myself, I am going to call and I will be ask whose calling and then tell me let me see if he is in his office, put me on hold for 10-15 minutes while everyone in the office laughed and put their bets down on how long the idiot would hold before getting the message that they were going to do anything and hanging up, and when I wouldn't hang up she would pick up and tell me, 'I am sorry, he is not in his office, can I take a message."
So I asked the LORD his opinion if that sounded about right and out of the blue the thought came to Google her name. Now why in the heck would anyone google a legal assistants name and I remembered the message about the thought that bolts into one's mind out of nowhere like a bolt of lightening. While not so dramatic, I was sure that I didn't think it, wouldn't have thunk it, but since it didn't hurt anyone I Googled it.
So I call the number from the email, and the story plays out per bateim, even when picks up after putting me on hold asking if I wanted to leave a message, so I reply in the negative and ask if I could ask her one question, so he nicely responds yes and I ask if she was the 2007 Miss Nebraska USA. It caught her by surprise and she asked how I knew that. I guess I have a
friend in Jesus I replied. And low and behold, the Claims Attorney had just stepped back in his office and my call when thru. After discussing the matter with the Claims Attorney, the Insurer settled my claim for the full face value of the policy.
I think the audible voice I had heard on a few occasions is because man is going to be able to transmit actual electromagnetic pulses directly to the neurons that carry the sound wave from the ear to the conscious mind which results in our hearing audible sounds. And the LORD doesn't want to use it to deceive others. Of course I don't know how you hear my words out of the fire in front of you
