What does the Bible say about God speaking through prophets?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible reveals that God spoke in times past through the prophets to the fathers, conveying His messages over various times and in diverse ways.

In Hebrews 1:1, it states, 'God, who at sundry times and in diverse manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets.' This signifies that God's communication with humanity has always been purposeful and intentional, as He used prophets to elucidate His will. The prophets not only delivered God's messages but also prophesied about the grace and salvation that would come through Jesus Christ. In addition, the way God utilized a variety of methods, including dreams, visions, and direct speech, underscores the intentionality behind His revelation to mankind, reflecting His deep desire for relationship and communication with His people.
