I'll give you 1 example of many times this happened. I was going through a big issue w/ my ex. I was at a park w/ my dog and I was tempted to send my ex a specific text but, before I sent it, I prayed about it and asked God if I should send it to him or not. I asked God for an answer within 2 hours and at the time, I was feeling extremely angry. I asked God if sending that text would interfere w/ God's plan and would somewhat put a damper on the situation btwn me and my ex and make things worse. Within 10 min, I heard God subtly tell me not to send the text and he completely took my anger away from me and filled me w/ the deepest peace and that peace stayed with me for the rest of the day/night.
But, I can hear God audibly (through my ears) or sometimes, the answer does come in my head, but, whenever I hear from God, he follows it by giving me extremely deep peace.
Of the 20 times I've heard God speak to me audibly over the last 16 years, 18 times, he has spoken to me through my ears. 2 times was in my head (as far as I know). It's extremely distinct. Very Very clear. Whenever he tells me to do something, I'll listen. A few times as I prayed to him outta frustration or anger, he'd give me a word --- most times it was only a few words but 1 time, it was a long sentence and EACH time he told me something, he filled me up w/ deep peace. Everything God has told me over the years has been encouraging, positive, sometimes challenging but still positive. I know w/o a shadow of a doubt that it was God. People often times talk down at me for sharing this, but, they can put me down, tell me it's all in my head or whatever, but, I tell you the truth, this is what I've experienced and I believe it was all from God.

The very first time I heard God speak to me was in school, in chapel. I was going thru some issues back then. A speaker was speaking and out of nowhere, I heard a voice tell me not to worry, that I will be ok.
Since that never happened to me before, I thought my friend said something to me. I asked her if she said anything to me. She said no. She told me it was God.
Then, I didn’t get another word from God until 2011. He nudged me to pray for someone. After praying 6 months, I asked out of frustration. He told me, one day, he will be saved. Received peace afterwards. And several months down the line, God told me that he was going to use the 2 of us one day.
I’m not going to tell u each story. Way too many. If you read my above replies, you’ll see some other stories that I wrote.
As I said, each time after God told me something, I was filled with the deepest peace.

Liquid Church. Why?
At the time, way back when I was attending Emergence. They’re both non-denomination churches.
We need to understand about devils and demons and how they operate so we can protect ourselves from them. Whether they speak to someone so they can hear them is really beside the point.
God created angels before humans, and there are three kinds. There were six archangels, and two rebelled, taking a third of the rest of the angels with them.
The other kind of Satan is Nephilim, a union of fallen angels and humans. Christ told us of angels who can take on human form when we are told to welcome strangers as they might be angels. When this kind of angel has rebelled and marry humans they produce demons. Goliath was one.
Some think that scripture warns us of these in the last days.
The goal of all of Satan is to be worshipped as God. They offer us good things, except all of these lead to death. They tell us to look to the stars for our answers, not to God. They tells us that excelling in sports, giving sports our all, leads to what God would offer. They tell us that the physical pleasure of sex is better than using sex as a marital union. Etc.
Just as Satan fooled Eve, Satan is using the very same tactics with us, offering substitutions to God's ways. God's ways lead to life, Satan leads to death.

Be careful listening to that voice. I can tell you how you will know between you and I if that voice is really God. If you have intentional sin in your life, that is not God. An only you and God knows if you intentionally sin.
You'd be better off searching the Scriptures. God told Peter that He could trust the Scripture even more than His experience on the mount of transfiguration.
2 Peter 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

They didn't have bibles at that time. A word of prophecy = definition of prophecy - a prediction
Come on Dudley, do right by the faith since saying something is no different that speaking something knowing that they both infer the use of the audible word
So tell me how you think God who only hath immortality hears sinners and I will show you why the Holy One doesn't.
Even Jesus gave a litmus test for the spiritual world that shows its substance as 99% imaginary and evidence strength less than 1%,
( 0% would an absolute lie)
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. John 3:8
So, the person who committed mass murder and then told a psychiatrist, "they heard voices telling them to kill," is nothing but 100% mental illness?
I see this as a person who first of all has no moral values, secondly is extremely vulnerable to hearing demonic voices and believing them as the right thing to do, and it is the actual act of killing that defines this person as mentally ill.
But still, to commit the act of mass murder which is clearly an act of insanity, this person did in fact hear from the pits of hell and entertained the voices until they believed in them.
The Adversary speaks to us all of time. From doing something bad to another, to thinking wrongly of another, to taking that evil thought and acting it out upon another person, it all stems from the pits of hell!!
It is not up to you to take the place of God who is the only one who has been given the authority to judge what is going on in other lifes. You may only judge what is sinful and what isn't.
I have perceived the presence of angels twice in my life, and frankly I don't care if you believe me or if you don't. Twice I made a request of them, twice I was told they had to get permission to grant my request, and twice they did what I requested.
However, my coming in contact with angels is not important, just as hearing the voice of a demon is njot important. However. It is extremely important that we recognize the calling of God and we recognize how demons work in our life today.
Adam and Eve did not understand demons, if they had we would live in an entirely different world. The information is available to us today and few people are paying any attention to it If we took the work of demons out of our churches and life today and all lived with Christ what a change we would have!!
The names of the months and days are from idols given us by demons. Our holidays are copies of days celebrating what demons led people to, only they Christianized them partly. Our newspapers would be entirely different, TV would be about families, and movies would completely change. Thrills would be in achieving something good
Out of curiosity, are you speaking of that feeling like warm waves washing over and through you and at the same time there are goosebumps on your arms?
Can you give the verses that have led you to this belief that no men ever hear locutions?
