Aren’t you glad God doesn’t have an answering machine!

Aren’t you glad that Father God isn’t silent. That when you talk to Father God or pray or even cry out to Father God you don’t hear a machine saying, “Please leave your message and I’ll get back to you!” or even worst, “Please hold, your call is important to us, you are in a cue and are caller number 281,656,431, please hold!”

But I know most of you will be thinking, I wish I could hear Father God speak to me more, and not just when I am in a desperate situation.

People say:

“I just feel so distant from Father God, I am struggling to hear Him!”

“God doesn’t speak to everyone, you have to be special to hear Him!”

“I used to hear Father God’s voices, but I don’t anymore!”

How is it so people hear from God and some people don’t?

The simple truth is Father God is always speaking.

I have heard stories of people who before they even believed in Jesus, in their desperation called out to God and had an encounter where Jesus actually walked into their room and spoke to them face to face and comforted them and gave them hope, saving so many from taking their own lives.

So how is it that when people call out to Father God in their desperation they hear Him? But when they pray or talk to him during the day, its like talking to a brick wall?
