God speaks to his people in many ways. Through the Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16, Psalm 119:11, 105) This is the most clear and effective way of God’s communication with his people. If you want to know how things works perfectly, you need to read the manual. The scriptures are God’s manual for his people. Through the inner still, small voice of Holy Spirit. (Acts 11:12, Acts 13:2, Acts 16:6-7, 1 Kings 19:12, Isaiah 30:19-21) Through the advice and counsel of men and women of God. (Provebs 12:15)

God speaks to his people in many ways.
1. Through the Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16, Psalm 119:11, 105): This is the most clear and effective way of God’s communication with his people. If you want to know how things works perfectly, you need to read the manual. The scriptures are God’s manual for his people.
2. Through the inner still, small voice of Holy Spirit. (Acts 11:12, Acts 13:2, Acts 16:6-7, 1 Kings 19:12, Isaiah 30:19-21)
3. Through the advice and counsel of men and women of God. (Proverbs 12:15).
4. Through the audible voice of God. (Acts 9:4-5)
5. Through dreams. (Matthew 1:20-21) There are many instances in the bible, when God clearly communicates through dreams.
6. Through visions. (Acts 10:9-18)
7. Through angels. (Luke 1: 26-38)
8. By circumstances. There is a danger though, letting mere circumstances run our lives, can be opening doors to Satan. So be wise with regards to your circumstances and expect God to speak to you through them.
9. By inner conviction and peace. It is similar to the inner still, small voice of Holy Spirit. God can give you deep conviction and inner peace about something.
The fact remains that if you will seek God, He will be found by you but it must be with your entire or whole heart.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." (Hebrews 11:1, 6)
"And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:13)
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." (Matthew 7:7-8)
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord." (James 1:6-8)
"For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it." (Romans 8:24-25)
