Some people claim they hear the voice of God. Is this true?

Yes, it is. The Bible teaches that God can speak to His people and reveal His will to them. The Bible states in Hebrews 1:1-2 "In the past, God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe."

This verse teaches that God has spoken to humanity through the prophets in the past and now speaks through His Son Jesus Christ. Additionally, the Bible teaches that God can speak to individuals through His Spirit, which indwells believers. In John 16:13 it states "But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come."

It is worth noting that the Bible also teaches that not all voices that claim to be from God are from God. Deuteronomy 18:20-22, it states "But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, is to be put to death."

Therefore, it is important to discern whether a voice claiming to be from God is in line with the teachings of the Bible and the character of God as revealed in the Bible. It is also important to be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit and to seek the counsel of mature believers in discerning the voice of God.

It is possible for people to hear the voice of God. The Bible teaches that God can speak to His people through His Son Jesus Christ, through the Holy Spirit, and through the prophets. However, it is important to discern whether a voice claiming to be from God is in line with the teachings of the Bible and the character of God as revealed in the Bible. It's also important to be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit and to seek the counsel of mature believers in discerning the voice of God.

It's also worth mentioning that hearing the voice of God doesn't always mean an audible voice, but it could also be a sense of peace, a feeling, a thought, or a vision that comes to someone. Additionally, God may communicate with people in different ways, for example, through the natural world, a dream, or through a person.

In the end, it’s important to remember that the primary way that God speaks to us is through His word, the Bible and that the Bible should be the standard by which we judge all other revelations or claims of revelation.

It's also important to note that hearing the voice of God is not something that only happens to certain individuals or special people, but it is something that is available to all believers. The Bible teaches that all believers have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, who is the one who guides and directs us into all truth. However, this doesn't mean that everyone will hear God's voice the same way or with the same frequency, some people may hear God's voice more frequently than others.

Hearing the voice of God also requires a willingness to listen, a humble and teachable attitude, and a desire to obey. Isaiah 55:3, it states "Incline your ear and come to me; hear, that your soul may live." The Psalmist David also wrote in Psalm 85:8 "I will listen to what God the Lord says, he promises peace to his people, his faithful servants but let them not turn to folly."

In conclusion, it is possible for people to hear the voice of God, but it's important to discern whether a voice claiming to be from God is in line with the teachings of the Bible and the character of God. It's also important to be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to seek the counsel of mature believers, and to have a willingness to listen, a humble and teachable attitude, and a desire to obey.
