RECAP
In the Last two episodes, we looked at the importance of Hearing God, and highlighted a total of 10 obstacles to hearing God. (Please visit www.tenets.tv/blog and facebook page @tenetstelevision to catch up on the teaching)
HEART PREPARATION IN HEARING GOD SPEAK
There is a posture that enhances hearing God. We need to position ourselves to hear. Hearing God can be compared with listening to a radio. The old radios had a knob and had to be tuned into a particular radio station. God is old school; you’ve got to tune in.
A whispering gallery is usually a circular, hemispherical, elliptical or ellipsoidal enclosure, often beneath a dome or a vault, in which whispers can be heard clearly in other parts of the gallery. Just as there are physical whispering spots, in the spiritual there are whispering spots.
1.SOLITUDE (Matt 6v6)
In teaching us how to Pray Jesus first started with the ‘where’ of Prayer. A level of hearing God is best achieved in Solitude. Solitude is key to hearing God.
Sometimes you find a whispering spot at other times the whispering spot finds you. The whispering place should be unique to you. listening precedes hearing 1 Sam 3v9.
Sometimes you find the whispering spot, at other times the whispering spot finds you.
There is no magic in the place. The magic is in the consistency.
The Whispering Spot Could be a Physical place or a Spiritual posture (Asking God Questions, wake up at night, Praying Speak Lord your servant is listening)
Listening doesn’t happen by default, but by intent.
The Principle of one: Dedicate to God 1 hour a day, 1 day a week, 1 weekend in a month, & 1 week in a year.
Application Guide.
Find a Whispering Spot, go on a retreat, Schedule a regular time to pray, re arrange your house, rearrange your schedule, cut off some entertainment, fast social media, schedule time to be with God.
