I can only answer that question according to my own experiences. I discovered that the reason I didn’t and couldn’t have a two-way conversation with God before the Message Art was because I didn’t feel worthy or good enough for God to talk to me directly. I had also come to believe that I wasn't knowledgeable enough since I had often been told that unless you had many years of theological studies, you had no way of knowing for sure if it's God talking to you or the devil making you think he is God. Sadly, it took me decades to realize that my own and other people's fear-based beliefs had prevented me from experiencing a direct connection with God and my divine helpers.
