HEARING GOD SPEAK

God does not have to make vibrations in one's eardrums to talk to them. Being the omnipotent creator, He has a more direct connection to our minds. When He speaks to men in visions, for example, no vibrations of the ear happen. This communication is just as real and legitimate as vibrations in the ear. I think more so, actually. He has talked to many in dreams. There is no reason or need for Him to wiggle our ear bones at any time, including when we are wide awake. He is still talking. The question is whether or not we are listening.

Quite a few people's experiences-- though maybe very real to them at
the time like Mother Teresa's --are imaginary.

I also think that the spirit world goes about its business mostly undetected:
the Holy Spirit's business too.

So, are all these experiences fake in your opinion or would some of them be genuine? Are they all imaginary?

Perhaps Tobin's Spirit Guide can help with your questions. It's available from
amazon dot com in a variety of price ranges.

I’m not buying something from Amazon or anywhere just because you don’t want to answer a question.

Hey, when I play the Audio Bible, am I hearing the audible Voice of God?!!

Lol! I’m just messing with y’all! Couldn’t help but poke some fun in the thread..lol!

God does speak to ALL of us… we ALL are born with spiritual ears and eyes…

Say something to yourself in your head.. sing the ABC song… you can hear yourself in your head. How?! Your physical ears heard nothing.. how could you hear?!!!

You heard your voice with your spiritual ears!

Now, be careful… demons will also speak to us in our thoughts/head… you can hear them, too…sounds just like your voice.

We need discernment, we need to learn to recognize all the voices and know when and who is speaking to us.

No one is allowed to speak during times of “testing.”

Know and understand, what we heard in the Light we hold on to in the Dark.

Our faith - what we know and believe will be tested.

No worries, hold fast!

Hello @Lafftur what’s your take on people experiencing something supernatural with God?
Like a sight, sound or smell?

After weeding out the fakes, do you think some experience legitimate things or is it all in their head?

Thank you for answering that and I agree.
I was asking more from a logical and reasonable point of view to anyone who would like to discuss with me this notion of What is Real vs What’s in your head or what we perceive.
But the approach that you suggested is valid and it’s something that I do frequently,

There are many times when I am reading the Bible and I have a question or there's a specific subject. Sometimes a verse is brought to my thought and I don't remember what the reference or even the book is. I open to another section of the Bible and my eyes tear up.
Why do I weep? He brought my eyes directly to the verse that He brought to my mind.
Sometimes it's as if Jesus was sitting with me and I ask a question. I turn to the exact page without leafing through and my eyes go straight to the answer. This is very humbling.

Thank you!
This is a wonderful explanation.

I've learned about the voices that come from the enemies of God and mankind. Some of them will claim to be God. You know that it isn't because they are speaking to those who are unbelievers.
The spirits lie.
Those unholy spirits often torment and try to stress the person.
They tempt those people to sin and to harm themselves and others.
Some who speak to New Agers and eastern gurus, will claim to be an alien, higher consciousness, dead relative, famous person,or God; these are all devils/ demons.
Many schizophrenics suffer from demon possession. I've been studying this subject recently.

I have never heard one through voices in my head or anything like that because I'm a saved believer in Christ. However, I have had several speak audibly through others. One tried to murder me without warning. I was scared until the Lord brought to my mind loud and clear as He applied it specifically to this creature. The Lord told me,

"Greater is He Who is in you than he who is in the world."

Immediately the fear left and I knew for certain what I faced was my mortal enemy. I looked into the face of a demon as manifesting through it's chosen host.

The Lord was in His temple and there was no reason to fear....only for His power to cast the demon out. He had the victory.

The character is blind.

I would say you would be hearing the Word of life.

I know it is written in Matthew 10:27, "What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light:" but if what you heard in the light leaves you in the dark, then maybe you can explain the verse in John 8:12 wherein it is written, " he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."
I agree.
