Thank you.My pastor had preached on this recently,I had just been confused over what people mean when they say they heard God's voice
I don't have many stories... but I have a couple.
So I was working at this nightmare place, a factory in August, and it was 110ºF in the place. I had problems with the heat, and the manager noticed, and sent me home.
So I get home 8 PM, I have very little money, and the rent is due, and now I have no job. I just prayed, told the Lord that I was in some trouble, and I needed help. There was no voice, no magic sign, no light from above. I went to bed.
The next morning at 8 AM, the phone rang. A company I had a applied for a job at, more than 2 months prior, called and had me come in for an interview, and two days later, they hired me.
So another time, I had a dear friend of mine, her car's windshield wipers quit working. She didn't have money to take it to a mechanic, and she was working a minimum wage job.
I went to the part store, and picked up a wiper motor, and then went to where she worked, and started working on her car. It was actually raining that very day, and she had driven to work in the rain, without windshield wipers.
If you have ever driven anywhere without wipers in the rain, you know how dangerous that is.
So I started working on this car, but this was a foreign model car, and I was completely lost as to how to replace the wiper motor. I couldn't figure out how to do anything on this car, that I was completely unfamiliar with.
I worked and worked, for about an hour and 15 minutes. Finally I realized I had no idea whatsoever, how to replace the wiper motor. I was going to have to take the whole front end of the car apart, and I didn't have the time or tools to do that.
I just stood there, hunched over the front of the car, and prayed real quick, Lord... I don't know how to do this, but I don't want my loved friend driving in the rain without wipers.
So literally in that very moment that I prayed this, the screw driver in my hand, slid over hitting a wire, a few sparks flew off, and the wipers jerked forward...... I just shuddered with my eyes closed, and said "Thank you Lord".
The wipers jerked forward because the motor was good, and sparks proved the wiring and electricity was good. My screw driver shorted the wire from the motor, bypassing the connection. What had happened was the connection was so rusty, that it stopped making contact.
All I had to do was take the nut off, and remove the wire, clean it and remove the rust, put it back on, and the wipers worked perfectly. I returned the motor, and got my money back.
In both cases, I never heard any voices. No magical signs. No shining light from heaven, or singing angels. Just clear obvious, direct answers to prayer.
That's it.
