my question is, is Jesus Christ in you? Yes or no? and have you heard the voice of the shepherd?
I heard the audible voice of the Lord before I learned to hear His still small voice.
Which testimoony would you like to hear? They both have one...I can't wait, hear this one.
It was saturday morning and both of my sons were staying with me again. I was sleeping and they got up and started fighting. I mean really fighting. Woke me up, shook the house. I go out and I start seeing damages to the house. Furniture, walls. So I got angry and got up and went out and yelled at them to stop.
The more aggressive of the two had a bad attitude and was very uh, voiceferous to me shall we say? So I decked him. He got up and snatched up his phone and said I'm calling the police and you're going to jail! And he proceeded to ring up the cops...
So I am no fool, I know how C. Springs cops are. I would go to jail. So I lit out the door walking so I wouldn't be there when the cops rolled in. The problem was I had been in an auto accident about 6 months before then and broke my back in 2 places. So I couldn't walk far. So I started praying. Lord, please dont let me go to jail today. Please dont let me go to jail today.
Then suddenly without warning and without the presence of God, I hear a voice inside of me and it said turn right at the corner. I felt elated because I was praying right then so I knew it had to be God. So I turned right.
Then the voice said, turn right in the alley.
Turn left here. Sit down and rest here. (in the sun!), then, get up go right go left up the alley. And so forth and so on. I couldn't walk more than a few blocks before needing to rest. And my old 1993 van was on gas fumes so I had to walk and stay close to home. and sometimes the Holy Spirit's prompting took me across an intersection. And I would look back and forth up and down the street while crossing.
Several times I saw cop cars crossing the intersection a few blocks down. Always a few blocks down. I knew they were searching for me.
Stop here and wait. Go now and go left then right on the next street...etc etc.. This went on for about 45 more minutes. Then all of a sudden I hear, it's safe to go home now, they have left and the search is over. So I walked home and thought, praise the Lord, I didnt get arrested. But what now? It all starts over again? Lord, please bring the Spirit of Peace to my house and upon those children. And when I went home and walked in my younger, more aggressive son immediately apologized to me and continued to clean the place up...(Thank You GOD!)
This incident of hearing Holy Spirit's voice was a special incident I believe. It was not the same (still small voice of God) that I have come to learn to hear. It was, different somehow. There was no, is that you God? I knew it was and that my prayer was being answered. But it was somewhat louder than the still small voice that I am used to. Like God cranked up the volume to make it easier for me to hear Him? I dunno.
But God does so speak to people every day.
Usually they don't recognize His voice.
