Seeking The Holy Spirit
Good Choices
The problem is not the obvious frontal attacks of Satan, so that it is obvious what they are, but the subtle attacks which are the result of him having you to choose something which is good in itself, but not the choice God desires you to make.
In other words, having you settle for second best.
Satan can only distract you or deceive you, in order to have you not do God’s Will.
So this is why it is important to be able to hear The Holy Spirit, so you know when Satan is trying to sidetrack you, by having you doing second best, which in itself is good, but not what God desires you to do.
This may help….
How to Hear The Holy Spirit
It is important to be able to hear The Holy Spirit clearly as He is your guide to live as Jesus desires you to live and to fight Satan in the way Jesus desires you to fight Satan.
Remember that to be an adopted child of The Father you need to be led by The Holy Spirit.
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God,” Romans 8:14.
Preparatory Prayer
Lord, I want to hear The Holy Spirit correctly so I can do Your Will and be guided to be your follower and live as your adopted son or daughter of The Father.
I give this desire to you and am sorry for anything I have done wrong in this area or associated areas of hearing The Holy Spirit.
In Jesus’ Name I command any demons that are blocking me from hearing and understanding the truths and guidance that The Father, Jesus and The Holy Spirit desires me to hear and understand to go immediately in Jesus’ Name to The Throne of Judgment to be dealt with by Jesus and take with them all they have done to me.
I ask You, Holy Spirit, to take their place and fill my soul so they cannot come back in.
How You Hear Him
Unless The Holy Spirit or Satan actually appears to you, they can only talk to you in your mind.
When they are communicating with you, it is as if they are your own thoughts, or that you are talking to yourself.
People often mistake this for a disorder, as if there are apparently two personalities in them when demons are speaking audibly in their mind.
Also, when The Holy Spirit is speaking, they usually think it is their own thoughts. So you need to know who is interacting with you.
They communicate through: thoughts, dreams, day dreams, emotions, sensations, feelings etc.
If it is not your thoughts, or one of the other communicating methods, then it is either The Holy Spirit or Satan placing them there.
You can actually hold a conversation with the Holy Spirit or the demons representing Satan and ask them questions and they will answer.
However, only answers from The Holy Spirit are 100% truthful. Demons will answer in a way that furthers their purposes for you.
You will need to silence your mind. You may have trouble hearing Him (The Holy Spirit) especially if you are in a place full of distractions or in a place where Satan rules.
Remember, The Holy Spirit, has a still, small (quiet) voice.
He will place an impression, picture, or thought in your mind, give you an emotion or feeling, or even speak to you in an audible voice.
You will know it is from Him as it will not cause you to fear. He may speak in other ways than these, but these are the normal ways.
You may feel a check in your spirit which is a ‘No’. If He does not reply, it is also a ‘No’, so you ask Him the reason why He said ‘No’ as He may tell you and you may find out more by this than by the answer you wanted!
If He gives you an answer, it will line up with The Bible and you will have peace in your heart over it.
Remember, God will not contradict His Bible.
Satan will try to cause you doubt about what you are hearing, then cause you to reason that it is wrong or impossible, so that you believe you are not hearing correctly.
At Times, Satan will also place fear or other wrong emotions or feelings in you to cause you to doubt God’s Love, Control, Plans or Purposes for you.
Satan does this to take away your trust in God and His Love for you, your Joy in Him as well as rewards and the things God has for you.
Satan will also try to have you misinterpret or misapply The Bible in a way that suits his purposes.
At times Satan will block you hearing The Holy Spirit so you need to cast him out and stop him doing this, and ask the Holy Spirit again what you desired to know.
If you do not hear from The Holy Spirit, ask the following:
- Are you in a place in which Satan rules, so that the spiritual atmosphere is blocking The Holy Spirit?
- Are you in sin (especially unforgiveness) and do you need to deal with it using The Five Steps?
- Are you to ask this particular question of The Holy Spirit?
If you do not get an answer, it may not be the time to ask, or It may not be the time to receive the answer, or It may not be an appropriate question to ask.
So ask Him why He did not answer and this may reveal more important information than the actual answer to the question you asked Him.
Jesus may not want you to have the answer so Satan will not know what Jesus is going to do and try to stop it, or replace it with his version of what you are to do.
- Are you to command demons that are blocking you from hearing the Holy Spirit to leave in Jesus’ Name?
Do you really want to hear the answer?
Are you seriously listening or just going through the motions of listening?
You do not really need to know what God is doing, as God will always do His best for you if you seek to know Him better and to do His Will.
As long as you obey what you know God asks you to do, you will be on the path He has prepared from before creation on which are all the things He needs you to do as well as all the promises and blessings He has given you.
“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you,” Matthew 6:33.
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them,” Ephesians 2:10.
A danger is to desire something so much that you do not hear God’s answer, but one Satan is able to give you, because it is the one you want to accept.
This is why it is good to have another witness, like the Bible recommends, whenever you have an answer or prophecy from The Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is your Companion in this life, so it is necessary to be in continual communication with Him as He helps you to navigate the traps of Satan and do the Will of God.
It is hard to be a child of The Father, if you do not know what He desires you to do and The Holy Spirit has been given so you can hear what The Father desires you to do so you need to be able to clearly hear Him.
