Withdraw to Quiet Places to Hear God
There is a reason why the Holy of Holies in the Tabernacle is designed to be totally quiet. Once a year, only the high priest can go in there.
Outside, the Holy Place has priests ministering in it, and the outer court is noisy with lots of work going on.
In the Holy of Holies, that’s where God speaks. A still small voice, in a perfectly silent environment.
Throughout each day, find moments to withdraw to quiet places to pray, both in words and in tongues if you can.
Jesus did this often while He was on earth. He withdrew to mountains and hills to be alone and communicate with the God the Father.
For me who is at home with my wife and daughter all day long, the quiet times I have is during shower time and bed time. In between, also times when Mae is playing by herself and I have moments to read and write. Find the quiet times and places that suits you best.
Ask God for wisdom and favor, and listen with your spiritual ears. Wait for Him to show you in your spirit or mind. Don’t expect an audible voice, although He can do that if He chooses.
If He doesn’t speak yet, don’t rush ahead of Him. Continue to pray and wait for confirmation in what you’re asking for. For example, I don’t write anything until He gives me a passage or verse, and the revelation He wants me to share.
It is more difficult to do this when you’re distracted by emotions and the loudness of the world.
“Yahweh came, and stood, and called as at other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “Speak; for your servant hears.”” (1 Samuel 3:10 WEB)
Be like Samuel who was attentively expecting to hear God’s voice. When God calls you by name and is ready to speak, be ready to hear!
