Does God Speak Through People?

from Arise, Women of God

SummaryHave you ever been pleading with God for an answer to a specific problem, only to suddenly feel like you've been struck by lightning when a friend, a mentor, or a pastor shares the exact phrase you've been begging for? It is easy to assume that if the answer didn't come directly from Heaven to your mind, it wasn't official. But if you are asking, "Does God speak through other people?" you are in the right place!In this episode of the Arise, Women of God podcast, host Tamara K. Anderson and guest Wendi Christensen explore the beautiful, human relay system of Heaven. We discuss why God often pours answers back to us through the lives of those around us. Tamara shares her powerful "but if not" journey—the day a simple sermon shifted her entire perspective on her children's autism diagnosis and taught her the true meaning of faith. We also look at the biblical story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath, proving that God frequently uses a human mouthpiece to deliver miracles. If you feel like God is ignoring your prayers, tune in to learn how to widen your lens, recognize His messengers, and use "safety checks" to verify the guidance you receive!Episode TakeawaysThe Human Relay System: God often uses the people around us—a friend, a pastor, or a mentor—as mouthpieces to deliver the exact answers we have been praying for.The "But If Not" Faith: True faith is knowing God has the power to heal or fix a situation, but choosing to trust Him even if He doesn't ("but if not").The Widow of Zarephath Principle: Just as God used Elijah to raise the widow's son, He often uses human messengers to deliver profound answers when we are too broken or caught up in the mess to hear Him directly.Safety Checks: If you receive a message through someone else, verify it. Does it align with the Word of God? Does it bring the fruits of the Spirit (love, joy, and peace)? If yes, God is speaking to you.ResourcesReady to start recognizing the messengers in your life?
