God Speaks-1
Does God speak to us? The first reference in the Bible. Gen.1:6,9. This reveals the fact that God exists and has personality. Only a living being can speak and communicate.
God speaks to man, Gen 3:9-10. God establishes a two way communication with man (prayer does that).
God speaks to Abraham, Gen12.:1-4. God speaks to Moses, to lead His people out of slavery, Ex.3:6-8.
God speaks to His people to establish a Covenant with them, Ex.20:1-3.
God speaks again to His people through the Prophets to pull them out of idolatry. Hag.1:1-4, and then God stopped speaking to His people for 400 years, but He did not abandom them. Finally. God spoke again through His Son to establish a New Covenant, Heb.1:1-2.
God speaks now on a higher level through the Holy Spirit to His Church, Acts13:1-3.
The New Testament closes with the book of the Revelation, Christ's message to His Church, Rev.1-3.
Has God stopped speaking? No, Heb.3:1-5. God still speaks to us, when we are ready to listen, Heb.13:8.
We need to develop spiritual hearing, When we hear God speak, then we know He is alive and He hears us.
