Aside from Joan of Arc, Mary, and Moses do you know of any Saints who actually heard the voice of God? It seems like usually they will meet or hear Mary or meet Jesus (as Padre Pio did) or get a message from an angel but what about getting information or instruction directly from God himself? Is that as rare as it seems?

What Saints heard his voice? Did they ever describe what it sounded like?

Also I know in reading about Joan of Arc the voices started out slow and became more and more intense and visits became more frequent. Is that always the case?

While not cannonized, Pope Leo XIII did hear a conversation between God and Satan by some accounts. This is what inspired his writing of the prayer to St. Michael the Archangel as well as the rite of exorcism he published. Some do say that it was not a conversation between God and Satan, but a vision he had of an army of demons preparing to decend upon the Church. Just an interesting tidbit. 🤷

I know. the Holy Trinity which says that God is one being who exists eternally as a mutual indwelling of three distinct persons who are the father, son and holy spirit. They all are God, and yet they are all distinct.

With that being said it is possible for Jesus to talk to someone and the holy spirit. What about God himself? Or that separate piece of the Holy Trinity if it pleases you.
