Secrets Revealed During the Night Visits

If you are really interested in speeding up the development of your soulical senses and experiencing greater dependence and intimacy on the Lord, schedule a time to wake up on your own in the middle of the night simply to spend time keeping Him company. Don’t necessarily hear something, just listen. Don’t expect that you will see an instantaneous or reciprocal response from the Lord. Those who seek, and keep on seeking, find, and for those who knock, and keep on knocking, the door will be opened. Let the Lord respond as He chooses; you just make yourself available.

Can’t Sleep?

If you find you can’t sleep, rather than trying to quiet your mind, or find something else to fill the time, like reading, watching TV, or cleaning the fridge, seize this prime opportunity to spend time with the Lord, turning your focus from yourself to His grace, and simply making yourself available in the sheer naked faith that He is already there waiting for you to wait for Him.

A Word of Caution

The reasons the Lord likes to visit us at night are also the reasons that make the night seasons an excellent time for demonic activities. When we are asleep we are most vulnerable to the enemy’s suggestions, and if he can get us to believe his lies at night we are more ready to accept them as truth in the cold light of day. So be aware that the night is a battleground. Especially if you are choosing to seek the Lord on your own, you are treading into territory the enemy has (illegally) laid claim to. He will put up a fight! So be prepared to recognize his presence and exercise your authority as necessary. Over time you may find much more going on in your life in the night seasons than you ever thought possible, which may in turn cause you to change your priorities during the day. This is exciting and important stuff, and the Lord wants us to enjoy learning to depend on Him for this warfare as well!
