We've all heard of those who've heard God speak inwardly; but how do you really know that God is really speaking? Or is it another spirit?
The danger of trying to listen to that voice is that we may actually be engaging in spirit-channeling which is an occultic practice. We may not be intentionally do it, but because of the nature of spiritual warfare where we are tempted by devils, the same can try and tempt us to go this direction or that, making itself appear as God.
And when we begin to try and listen to that voice, we can be dependent on that voice, which then draws us away from scripture as a means for instruction.
For example, "Lord, which college should I go to", "Should I marry him?", or "should I become a missionary?" The way it ought to be done is through the reading of scripture, speaking to fellow believers including Elders and Pastors, and by prayer.
However, those in the Charismatic and Word of Faith churches would have you to only pray and try to listen. Then, we look for confirmation through... signs.
This is essentially no different than one who is a psychic calling out to a spirit, angel, or deity - save - that you're praying to God when special revelation has ended with Christ (Natural Revelation - Romans 1:19-20; Special Revelation - Hebrews 11:1-2).
