Would you agree that those who pray, believe they are speaking to god to resolve an issue, but they come up with an answer through their subconcious and believe it is god speaking to them giving them an answer?

Not really, I beleive God can speak specific details to you in your time of fellowship with Him, but the main way God speaks to us is through His word, and if you don’t know His word, you don’t know Him, or what he wants you to do. Then if you have found out in the scriptures about a particular case, for example what is God’s will for me regarding healing, or finances, or a mate, or godly living regarding an specific circumnstance, and you still need some specific guidance to a more definite path or desicion you should make, then Yes God will show you, there’s many different ways He can do this, not ususally in an audible voice, and it will cause you to take some action to resolve the issue, He is not just gonna do it for you, that’s not God, but you have to know Him, spend time with Him know His word first of all.
