God is a God of symbols. God speaks, we just have to listen. Listening is so important, we have senses and one of the sense is the sense of hearing. Some of us are more sensitive than others in the spirit. Hearing God takes a relationship with God. You know that scripture
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
We know His voice and He knows us. I love this. God speaks in symbols, while you sleep, while awake, through others (with caution on this one, not everyone who says they are coming in the name of the father are who they say they are) you will know when it’s the Lord. He speaks in the wind and fire. He speaks when the sun comes up and lays down. God whispers and speaks violently. That tug on our heart, yes…. That’s Him too.
Fine tune your ears and tell God, I want to hear you clearly, I want to feel your presence near me. God will do it because He delights in you taking interest. Spend some time with Him,
