For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory displayed in the face of Christ - 2 Corinthians 4:6 |
Find a quiet spot
Let the music play
Breathe in, deeply...
Exhale - slowly
Breathe into the lyrics,
the words and melody that form the wisps of intercession
Keep breathing...
The notes, the words, the prayer
turning, writhing, flowing, spilling, swirling
Being drawn on their way
Upwards to the Father
And the release of Heavens storehouse
Envelopes our earthly frame...

As you breathe and still your soul, listen for the whispers of the Holy Spirit to speak in your heart. He may speak in words that don't seem to be your own, images, songs (because the Lord does sing over us) or even "flashes of insight". Sometimes He will let His presence be known by a fragrance you can detect, or even by physical sensations (if it won't overwhelm you!). Just know it is His desire to speak to you, to tell you "great and mighty things, that you do not know" and even things that you do know, but need reminded of. Make sure you have a piece of paper and a favorite pen or pencil handy so that you can capture the essence of your time with the Lord when it is over (not during - {smiling}). Remember what He feels like/sounds like; and let His presence carry over into the rest of your day!
