Yes, God does speak to us today, in much the same and diverse ways he has spoken in the past. In the Bible God speaks in dreams, angels unaware, through prophets, teachers, preachers, inspiration, in times of prayer, praise and worship and locutions to mention a few. The Bible tells us that God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. If one is proud, arrogant, controlling and power seeking, it would be rare for God to speak to this kind of person. If one is poor and meek like Jesus, Jeremiah, the prophets and John the Baptist, God speaks to these types of individuals. Ultimately, he likes to speak to those who obey what he is telling them. The more we obey, the more he speaks, The less we obey, the less he speaks to that person. Mary was obedient to the message of the Angel in spite of the cost of hatred, stoning and persecution. To hear God's voice means to say yes when we know it will lead us to persecution for his name's sake.
