A word of warning: The goal of meditation is not meant to be a way to contact spirits, talk to God or anything related to that. It can happen and certainly does, but that is not the goal of meditation. The Buddha would have considered such phenomenon to be unimportant, irrelevant and not worth giving acknowledgement. They are distractions from the practice of meditation, designed to give temporary highs and remove you from your state of meditative contemplation and silence. They are ultimately products of the mind and probably products of your subconscious and childhood upbringing. When a voice compels you to speak, acknowledge the voice and do no action. It is just another thought, like any other. Let it pass by as you would any other thought.

Of course, you could roll with it too and talk to God all day. Choice is yours. Just be aware that what you are doing is not meditation proper and is not the goal of meditation.
