Is It Possible To Have A Conversation With God? (ritual, prophecy)

“Read all religions and when you have understood this, you will understand where the magic of the world comes from.
Then when you understand this build a place and from that place, peace will spread and others will follow…..”

This went on for about half an hour in total and so a lot is fragmented; at the end I was told “when the time comes, you will remember”, I can still see the pictures of much of it that was presented to me.

I do not believe you can have a one on one conversation where you actually hear God's words. I do believe if you pray or feel you need a dire answer to something that you hear that answer in your head or through a dream. Thus feeling these thoughts came from God.

That's actually very similar to what God said to me. I haven't finished reading all religions yet, so I haven't started building the place.

Don't worry, I have
At the time we had no internet and so didn't understand, was thinking a temple to have all religious books in.
Yet as on another occasion of making my site, i had so many coincidences to make it; then straight after others copied the same idea, so doing what is asked.

Seriously God asked you to do that also? If so can you help have a look at this Pharisee issue as it would help stop the fighting, if we can at least get half the world to listen.

Most current Christians only follow as everyone else does with no real understanding of why, so the more we get to understand that half of the books is false and stands against Christ, then the rest will follow.

Please note: I'm not terribly interested here in gathering opinions that it is impossible to have a two way conversation with God because God does not exist. If you absolutely feel a deep and abiding compulsion to state such an opinion, then have at it. But I think everyone is already well aware of that POV, and while it's a legitimate POV, it would be practically trivial here.

I do not think in the sense that there is some booming voice that answers my questions but yes, we talk. Hashem relates to us through our suroundings most times. We have to be very sharp and watch what's going on around us to see what Hashem's saying to us. Especially those around us. How others treat us can be a direct reflection on how we treat others. And especially if it is your wife.

Jesus said "I go to prepare a place for you, but I will not leave you alone. I will send to you the "Conforter" (the Holy Spirit) who will dwell in the hearts of the believer's and guide them. Where two or more are gathered in My name I am with you also.

I believe so. I think that you just have to learn how to 'listen'...You will hear God in many ways...maybe as a voice, but more often as a feeling or intuition. That is how I most often 'hear' when I slow myself down enough to 'listen'.

I would concur, this is the true purpose of prayer. People are very quick to start a conversation with God by asking and griping and pleading and praising but then they say amen and finish the prayer. Bamm they're done. But rather if we listen and don't take for granted the usefulness of prayer, God will speak to us. Some people call it intuition or conscience when after they pray they feel the have received an answer of types to their question. That is God, his still small voice. I think too often people expect an enormous blast of sound or miracle of sight to feel they have been spoken to by God. Instead realize that at the beginning all you may hear is his still small voice.
But once you learn to listen to that voice and follow it you will find that it speaks often and it speaks in ways you never thought possible

I believe that a conversation with GOD is all-natural and available to everyone who has the time or interest. GOD is very approachable and very appreciative of our companionship.

A two way conversation is indeed preferable to any growing REALationship. I cannot possibly standardized a format for every individual because everyone is different but the way I connected to this BEing was through direct confrontation with no previous expectation. You have to leave your faith out of the process. Over moments, I let GOD describe Himself to me and I made the decision to decide if I wanted to continue a REALationship with this entity.
