I've heard the Holy Spirit speak many times, sometimes an incredibly quiet whisper, occasionally a distinct voice in my ear. Sometimes loud enough to wake me from sleep.
Its not always clear whether its God or my imagination. But thankfully, my heavenly Father is still teaching me to listen, and has been doings so for nearly 60 years.
Hearing God's voice has been a wonderful experience. It has on occasion even saved my live. Mostly it is about his caring fatherhood, directing my path at work or home.
He has given me revelations by vision or dreams for fixing machinery. He has told me what businesses to buy. He led my wife to me by word of knowledge. He has on several occasions told us which house to buy.
The list is endless of his sovereign interventions in my life.
There are times when I have completely misinterpreted his direction, but He always enables me to extract myself from the holes I fall into.
I thank God that he has not left us fatherless. He didn't just toss a book of instructions and expect us to learn it. What sort of father would do that and then walk away in silence.
