To Soak and Wait upon God's Presence

How To Soak and Wait upon God's Presence...


A very practical lesson this time...
  1. Find a comfortable place to lie down.
  2. Allow the busyness of your thoughts to quieten down (don't fight them).
  3. Invite the Holy Spirit to soak you in His presence.
  4. Pray and surrender yourself to the Holy Spirit ... mind, body and soul.
  5. Focus on the lord's presence within you.
  6. Rest in faith, believing He is working in you.
  7. Take as much time as you can.
    (Try to give at least 20 mins to start to relax and receive.)
  8. Get up refreshed and full of the Holy Spirit.
    Watch as God changes you and the world around you!
As we wait on God a settled faith and abiding presence allows us to accomplish the works God has already prepared for us:
"There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.
Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience." (Heb 4:9-11 NKJV)
Other Scriptures: Psalm 23:1-3; Psalm 4:4; Matthew 11:28-30; Hebrews 4:9-11; Psalm 46:10; Isaiah 40:29-31; Psalm 27:14; Isaiah 55:1-3; Luke 10:39 Prayer that changes things
All prayer changes things in one way or another, but we next consider two kinds of prayer specifically given to change situations, and turn things around.
