I could quote several scriptures
but for this question....refer to what you rely on

Would you leave?......if your God spoke to you

Well, we all get to leave this life.

Meanwhile, we all get the choice to understand that God speaks to us all the time.

It is a connection of heat and mind.

Are you defining "speak" in the literal sense or figuratively?

In the Spirit, that is how God talks to us. While there is a Messenger on this earth we get to hear God from those lips. After they pass, it is a connection of Heart Mind and Soul.

We pray, we meditate and God answers.

If we neglect this, God guides.

If God felt it necessary to speak to us in human words, wouldn't it make more sense for him to have a full time messenger on this earth, or at least have one ready to take the baton as the other passes? Why the gap between messengers?

Free will is a part of this Matrix. If it was handed to us on a plate, then we would not have the bounty to make a choice.

Christ gave this concept as being born again, a birth that death does not overtake. Baha'u'llah has confirmed true life is that of the Spirit.

Man has been created at the end of imperfection and the beginning of perfection, with all perfection latent within us. We are given this life to foster that perfection. the world is the matrix to acheive this.

There is no real separation between this world and the Spiritual World. All the Messengers are right there, all around us.

But isn't this what happens when a messenger is present? With this rationale, why would God send messengers at all?

They are sent at the change of an age, they are sent to change the mindset of peoples. They come to warn of the consequences of not applying that change. It is only through them, acceptance of them, that we can know God.

Gods Covenant is that He will send His guidance from age to age. Our part of that covenant is acceptance.

Covenant (biblical) - Wikipedia

We are not aware, but each Messenger brings a New Heaven and a New Earth, which then becomes the standard we are set to live by.

Would you leave?

in fear you would flee?

Is this about Brexit?

I am firmly in the Remain side, although I understand that there are people who wonder why I even care.

I just do. We all exist in the same planet, and our economic and social needs are essentially intertwined, despite a lot of people loving to establish very artificial national boundaries.

I have no God (that crosses out prophets, sons, messengers, manifestations and mahdis). Sure, old is replaced by new, that is the way of the world. I already have those who will replace me. So what worry?
