God spoke in the Old Testament through his servants the prophets in order to reveal His purposes and plans to His people. God spoke through His son Jesus in the gospels in order to demonstrate His redemptive plan to humanity through Christ. Jesus clearly came to seek and save that which was lost, namely the ones who were separated from God, in essence everyone. Jesus said that when He left the earth, He would send the helper who is the Holy Spirit of God. What's amazing is that now through each redeemed believer in Jesus Christ they have the Holy Spirit of God Himself abiding in them. The Holy Spirit is the truth, He is the comforter and the One who guides us. In other words, He is the voice inside me that leads me to the Father.
I am amazed and in awe of the way the trinity works and how they speak and have spoken in times present and past. There is no excuse for us not to listen, we must listen and obey. When God speaks He is seeking immediate response. He usually speaks to reveal something He wants accomplished. I desire immediate obedience when God speaks. I have not been very good at it, but i am repenting in my heart and asking the Father to help me overcome fear, disbelief or doubt, and whatever else would stand in he way. I want Gods favor over my life. After all, I am his son and He is my Father.
