Recognise your Prophet
Numbers 22:30 And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.
God speaks to man in diverse ways, His ways are beyond total understanding of man. God speaks regularly and always, but the problem is with man's hearing.
There are several radio stations all over the world that broadcast from time to time, some are even on air 24 hours every day. The fact that one is not hearing the broadcast from a station does not mean the station isn't on air. It is likely one's radio is not on, or the radio is not tuned to the station.
God choose different means to reach man, He speaks audibly to man, like He did with Moses, He uses symbols. He speaks through dreams, visions, prophecies, etc.
He speaks directly to the heart of man when devotedly studies His word (The Bible). Isn't it wonderful that He chose to minister to Balaam through a donkey? That's the unquestionable God.
It takes sensitivity of His spirit to get the message He chooses to pass across through whatever medium He chooses.
Balaam was surprised at the sudden change of attitude of the animal, instead of seeing the hand of God in it, he chose to continue spanking the poor animal until the Lord came to the rescue.
Are you sensitive enough to the voice of the Lord though the countless means He has at His disposal? Are you close to Him enough, even while doing your legitimate business, to be able to say, "speak Lord, for your servant hears?
He can use a mad man, a sinner, anyone... You can't succeed going your life without specific directives from Him, so recognise your prophet.
God bless you..
Prayer key:
1. Lord thank you for another day like this in Jesus name.
2. Lord, give me the sensitivity to know when you are speaking and to act accordingly in Jesus name.
3. Lord, make me spiritually inclined to the means you chose to reach me.
