(September 20)
“And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room [closet], and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.” (Matthew 6:5-7)
My Precious Beloveds, I miss you when you don’t come to Me; I miss our conversations.
Many cry out that they want to hear Me. At first, many come to hear Me; then, many of these leave out of frustration. See that it is you who frustrates yourself. I have sent you My own Holy Spirit; He lives within you so that you can hear Me. I intend for you to hear Me, and I speak.
Many walk away before they learn to hear within My Spiritual realm. For most, hearing Me daily is a work in progress. Every day is a commitment to Me, your Lord; it is your exercise in patience. Hearing My voice is promised; hearing My voice repeatedly and correctly always takes patience and practice.
Come daily; rest within My presence before you begin to listen for My voice. Clear your mind of all the worldly chaos, chores, problems… Go into your “prayer closet” and close the doors to the outside world. Your spirit-man is your “prayer closet.” Close off your old physical, worldly mind; and enter into My heart and mind within your spirit-man. Your spirit-man is filled with My Holy Spirit.
It is at this depth, within this deep area of your newly born soul, that I am most often heard, and heard clearly (see Isa. 53:11-12). Do not come with an agenda, or to consult Me as to your needs. I already know your needs. Come to Me and listen for My thoughts and teachings. I am the answer before you ask. I see and know things about you that you have not yet seen.
Rest within My company first and foremost; then listen for Me to speak, Amen Amen and again Amen.
