                     If You Listen

If you listen, you will hear Me, for I am communicating with you. I am
speaking to you in many ways, and I am drawing you to Me.

Expect to receive and you will. Do not be satisfied in assuming that I
am only talking to others. Allow My Spirit to move freely in your life,
so that you may receive My fullness and Know the love that My Son has
for you.

I am constantly communicating with all who will expectantly listen. Quiet
yourself, so you can learn to recognize My voice.

Learn to walk in more of Me. I am a jealous God. Get up from your laziness
and come into My presence. Ask Me into your life with more than your lips.
Ask Me with the need of your heart.

I am speaking to you in the night times. I am the voice you hear while you
work. Increase your expectancy that I would choose you.  I have plans that
were created for you. You are where you are because of My will.

Be bold in Me. I am your Father and protection. Learn to ask of Me and you
will learn how to receive. Sit with Me and be changed.

Move now as I lead you. Ask for direction and receive it. Come to My word
and find confirmation of My ways. Continue to seek Me. Do not grow weary
or become discouraged. The enemy is at work to release deception. He
wishes to shred you.

Those who learn My ways will learn the peace and authority I have already
granted. Those that move forth from their current station will be granted
more.

You can learn to recognize Me. Ask of Me what you will and find satisfaction
in knowing who I am. You are the sons of My eternal family.
