Hello everyone. I'm 22 years old and I only became a Christian since March of this year. I am still new to the faith but I am very excited to further my journey with God. A year ago today I never would have imagined myself loving reading the bible, praying every day, and listening to Christian music. I am so grateful I found Christ. I wanted to make this post because something remarkable happened tonight. For a backstory, none of my parents are Christian (yet!) and at the moment I am the only Christian in my family. So this makes this story it even more amazing. I was showing my dad some pictures I took when we went out for dinner as a family and when we arrived on the picture of me and him, my mom made a comment saying "Oh that's a nice picture, father and son" and my dad added in "and the holy ghost". I didn't say anything and I was very surprised when he said that at first! Keep in mind my dad would never say anything like this because he isn't Christian or religious in any way and never talks about that stuff. But then after some time I realized it must have been God sending me a message to keep up the work I'm doing and not give up. I just knew it had to be the Lord there was no other explanation. This was a very incredible experience I wanted to share and I'm just wondering if any of you have any stories like this where God was talking to you through someone else? We have one amazing God! :)

Never had God talk to me. But let’s just say God is still in the “ vision “ business. Beyond belief.

I think God spoke through my dad like that once. My dad suddenly said to me that inappropriate content was from the devil. I was secretly watching it at the time and never told him about it so he wouldn't have known.

Hello everyone. I'm 22 years old and I only became a Christian since March of this year. [...] We have one amazing God! :)

As funny as it sounds, I am actually glad God speaks to you and not to me - it encourages me that both you and God will be on my side (when I do the work of the Holy Spirit).

It's not that I just want God to like me, actually I feel like God likes me a little too much - its just that I already talk too much.

I am really learning to speak when spoken to - thanks for sharing!

My Father out of the blue said to me one day its not all about sex. He said something a little more ghrpic and direct. And I held sex up as the most important thing on the planet.

So you never read the bible? In these later days God has spoken through His Son. I know for a fact God has spoken to you.

Praise the Lord! Once you've accepted Jesus as your Saviour, the Holy Spirit (Ghost) takes up residence in you. Remember that God is omnipotent so can do absolutely anything and it sounds like what happened to you was exactly what you needed at that moment to keep you on the path of salvation. I pray that the hearts of your family softens and they are willing to hear you witness to them about the ABCs of salvation by accepting Jesus Christ. Remember that people around you will notice the change in you but may not be able to articulate how you are "different". Keep walking with the Lord as He could return for his "bride" at any moment! Maranatha!!!!!

It happened to me when I accepted Christ, I prayed 'Lord if you want me you'll have to take me as I am and make me what you want me to be'. It was like he reached down and grabbed me and said, 'you got it', not audible really but unnerving. Sometime after that I was reading the 22nd Psalm and caught a vision of the cross, I mean I could see it clearly in my minds eye. I put that Bible down and wouldn't touch it for weeks. I finally picked it back up and one evening I was browsing Job, an early favorite of mine. In the 38th chapter I saw what I can only describe as a vision of the approaching whirlwind.

It just happened early and I'm not prophet but I think it was the Holy Spirit getting acquainted. The thing about these experiences is they are for you, telling others makes a fine testimony but mainly it's between you and God. When I pray I like to take a couple of minutes and wait, I mean you never know, and I feel like God does reply in a way.

Grace and peace,
Mark

I’ve had God speak to me several times and am extremely grateful for those experiences. Speaking thru people? Yes that has happened to but he spoke audibly thru me as well. When he speaks to you audibly, you know he’s there and cares and is trying to help u in that moment. When he does that, you need to listen right away.
