Listen to the Still Small Voice?

According to Hebrews 1:1-2 the Bible says:

"1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 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."

As a young believer, I would often hear Christians talk about hearing a "still small voice". This "voice" was telling all of these Christians what they need to do or don't need to do. The "voice" was the way that most decisions were made, and the only way to know God's will for sure. The concept for this comes from the Old Testament in 2 Kings where the Lord speaks to Elisha this way. It falls into one of several "various ways" God spoke to our ancestors before the time before Jesus came others were: a burning bush (Exodus 3:1-6), a talking donkey (Numbers 22), and a mysterious hand writing on a wall (Daniel 5). But I never heard anyone say they were waiting on or had heard an animal speak or a burning bush.

No there is a great misunderstanding of what it means to hear from God. You see from the point in time that the Book of Hebrews was written, Jesus had already completed his earthly ministry, died, was resurrected, and ascended to Heaven (Luke 1). You see God has revealed all that he wants his people to know in the Word of God. We are to live within the bounds of Biblical Commands and Biblical Principles. As Proverbs says, "Wisdom is calling out!" (Proverbs 1:20)

Let us not forget brothers and sisters that it is impossible for us to complete the joy of our Lord by "being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind." -Philippians 2:2 We will never be of full accord and of one mind if we are all hearing a difference/conflicting still small voices! So this is not just an issue about misunderstanding how God speaks, but it has far reaches into the unity of the church. I think the truth is that many Christians are too lazy to read the Bible so they lack the knowledge and therefore the wisdom to make God glorifying decision. So may you be satisfied to know God has spoken once for all in the Bible, and may you rest in His Word!
