While God spoke dramatically in the Old Testament through voices, dreams, angels, and theophanies, such experiences were rare even then. Today, our primary, constant way to hear God is through His living Word—the Bible. True revelation and guidance come from daily studying and meditating on Scripture, not delegating it to others (2 Timothy 3:16-17). All prophecy must align perfectly with the Bible (1 John 4:1), and we should follow only those rooted in the Word. Like the Bereans (Acts 17:11), test everything against Scripture. The Holy Spirit illuminates truth to believers (1 Corinthians 2:14). Be a diligent student of God’s Word—it’s the unshakable foundation.
