Soldier of The Cross, your job is to be a responder.
When you take up The Cross and follow Him you are turning from independence to submission. It is an affirmative act that agrees with God.
The Indwelling Holy Spirit rarely storms our thoughts or feelings. Rather, He is calm, firm, and much of the time can be heard only when one is deliberately listening for Him. Responding to Him is a practice and, over time, His guidance, comfort and illumination become more and more clear.
The mind is always bombarded. We do not need to listen to it all. We must learn to be responsive the Him. Only then will the psi go down on the onslaught of the pressure hose to the mind.
It takes The Word of God.
It takes The Word of God.
It takes The Word of God.
Make no mistake. The Word is Alive and full of Power. No Word = crippled response.
Take it to Him in prayer.
Aloud.
Today.
