I think God
speaks clearly in these times because of his silence it
means he has had enough of our ways we havent listened we have gone our own way we havent acted on what his prophets have
spoken so he distances himself until such time that we will take him seriously.Thats how it was in the old testament he allowed his
people to go into captivity or bondage when they refused
to obey his word.We see this pattern repeated over and over for example In Egypt when they were in slavery it wasnt until the
people acknowledged there sin and cried out
