Escape to a Place to Hear God's Voice

When I first started blogging in 2009, I was led by the Spirit of the Living God to name this blog The Spirit Says.  

I read in the the Holy Scriptures that we should be led by the Spirit of God and not by our bodies/flesh.  When I read these words, I immediately believed that if I was led by the Spirit of God in my ways that I would prosper.  Therefore, I was led to call this blog The Spirit Says because everything I put out there would mostly be impressed upon me by the Holy Spirit.  

I try, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to behave and conduct myself under the influence of the Holy Spirit.  I look forward to be judged by Christ Jesus to be told if I did a good job or not by living a life that is influenced by the Spirit of God.  

Aside from how I live and behave, The Spirit Says, is a blog for me to share with you about what the Holy Spirit has impressed upon me to share. 

Today, I want to tell you that the Lord wants to bring you to a place of peace.  He wants to remove confusion and uncertainty from your life and bring clarity to what you are going to face.  

The photo below is a labyrinth that is located at my former place of employment.  I took this photo in the spring with my Canon 80d using a 70-200mm lens.  I edited the photo myself to bring out the greens a little more.  The reason why I actually photographed this place is because it became a place of answered prayer for me.  Sometimes, I would pray and other times I would sit silently hearing what the Spirit of God would say to me.  I would hear the birds chirping, see the squirrels running around the bushes, and often hear the buzz of a fly or two.  Overall, I would lie on my back and look up to heaven and just stare off into the realm of the spirit.  The Spirit of God would show me things to come, give me peace about a situation that troubled me, and provide clarity about things I did not understand.  


 
What was most powerful about this place was that I could enjoy this Prayer Garden without any interruptions.  More significantly, I could hear the Holy Spirit speak to me without any interruptions.

I must share with you that:  

God wants to bring you to a place where it will be just you and Him.  He wants to bring you to a place where you will, without a doubt, hear Him say He loves you.  He wants to bring you to a place where you will acknowledge His mercy that sets you free from things that eat away at your soul.  He wants to bring you to a place where He lays out His plan for your life.  He wants to bring you to a place where He can share things with you that were once mysterious.  He wants to pour out wisdom, knowledge, and understanding upon you. 

Get to a place where you will not be interrupted.  A place where you will not be distracted.  Perhaps a spiritual place of peace and joy that can only be birthed within you by the Holy Spirit instead of a show, food, person, and/or activity.  

Find a place to hear the voice of the Lord because your life depends on it. 

Your Life Depends On You Clearly Hearing His Voice!
