“I want to tell you to be quiet. Yes, My People, be quiet before Me. Be quiet WITH Me. I AM your God. I AM the Great I AM. I control all of creation. Yet I yearn to be with you. To speak to you and have you speak to Me. I do hear your prayers ‘on the run,’ as you say. I never turn aside sincere prayer. But I am unable to speak to you often because of the chaos and the noise of your world around you. I want My People to learn to hear My Voice. This does not come easily or quickly. This comes from spending time quietly with Me, allowing your soul to rest and marinate in My Goodness. I speak in many different ways. I have much to teach you. Are you one that says, ‘God doesn’t talk to me?’ I TALK TO YOU EVERY DAY. I talk to you OFTEN. It is not that I do not speak. IT IS THAT YOU DO NOT LISTEN. You will not know how to hear Me and discern My Voice if you do not allow Me to teach you. Yes, I can shout at you if needed – and then you will hear Me. I do not choose to shout at you constantly. You must draw away from the noise of the world. Draw away with Me. The voice of your enemy is loud and long and very compelling these days. I have warned My People that they, too, can be deceived. You must learn how not to be deceived. Do you think I would choose that My People hear the enemy’s voice more than they hear Mine? Is this what I called you to? You learn to discern the enemy’s voice by learning to discern MY VOICE. If the voice is not of Me, it is from the enemy. Discernment is not learned in a day. I call you, My People, to face your priorities. Put them under a microscope. Examine and see where your heart lies. For your heart lies with your priorities. Come to Me, lay all your priorities on the altar before Me. I will sort through them. What does this verse mean – ‘He will give you the desires of your heart?’ I cannot give you the desires of your heart until you bring all your desires to Me and ask Me to sort through them. Then I will take away what is not of Me. And I will give you what I desire to be your priorities. Your Yes is required.

“Come to Me in the quiet place and learn My Voice and My Desires for you. This is a personal invitation from the Most High God. I counsel you to respond wisely. Amen.”
