When I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, it took me many years wondering how the Holy Spirit speaks to us. “Does He speak like a human being?” I kept wondering. Then one day, something happened to me. Read below to see what exactly happened to me.
How God saved my children from a poisonous snake.
I remember one time my children, who were young at the time, used to play on a rug that we usually left on the lawn in front of our house. They usually rushed to that rug after breakfast.
The voice from heaven.
That particulay Saturday, as I was having breakfast with my children, I heard a voice in my thoughts telling me to put down my cup of tea and go quickly to the yard in front of the house.
This voice was not audible to my ears. It was like a thought speaking to me. It was a special thought that only my mind and soul could hear.
I ignored the voice and continued sipping my tea. To me, this sounded like a funny thought. But I soon realized it was a special thought from heaven. The Holy Spirit was talking to me, but I didn’t know it.
The voice in my mind spoke again.
As I lifted the cup again, I heard the same voice, within my thoughts, repeating the same instructions. This time I was sure this was the voice of the Holy Spirit. It was the voice of God. I immediately left my cup on the table and followed the instructions of this voice.
As I stood in the front yard wondering what to do, the same special thought came into my mind saying:
My children are always the ones who clean this yard. This morning I will surprise them because they will find it well cleaned.
This was a voice from heaven but I heard it like a thought in my mind. I briefly stood still waiting to take action.
At that very moment another special thought followed. This thought said:
I will start this cleaning by removing that rug.
So, I proceeded to first remove the rug before cleaning the rest of the yard. .
The moment I lifted the rug I saw a long black cobra snake uncoiling from below. I quickly called Florence and we killed it before it could do any harm.
Had it not been for God’s intervention, the Holy Spirit talking to me, and for my obedience, surely my children would have been bitten, by an agitated snake.
In conclusion, I can say that the Holy Spirit talks to you through special thoughts. If you continue paying attention, you will start differentiating between your ordinary thoughts, and the voice of the Holy Spirit.
How the Holy Spirit actually talks to you.
