To get a glimpse of God or to understand this prayerful worship is this….You can know God from your knowledge of the bible…but it isn’t until you worship in the secret place of the most high that you can truly experience the mental, physical and emotional connection with God. This kind of worship and prayer along with the intense presence of the Holy Spirit allows us to have a very intimate relationship with God our Father.
This type of prayer is different from other kinds of prayer because it involves not only thinking and speaking to God, but you move into a very deep spiritual connection that allows you to feel Gods presence to the point that you forget about yourself and everything around you. It’s just you and Him. This kind of prayer makes you want to cry your heart out in love for God or you may want to lie out on the floor face down. You may want to lie very still and be taken over by the Holy Spirit and be one with God. You may feel like you’re in a trance and God is ministering to you and speaking to you. He could give you a vision or give you a song that you know or one you never heard of before. You will experience the Glory of God and during this time you will feel like nothing in the world can harm you. You will feel extreme love from Him and very relaxed in your spiritman.
To pray and worship God this way you need to get ALONE with Him. It would be great if nobody was home or you could be alone in a room. This is a very special time…just with you and Him…nobody else. Some people may feel uncomfortable praying this way and I can understand that. But this relationship supersedes all other relationships and if one can be intimate with their husband…this relationship truly surpasses it. This is our God the Supreme Being in the universe, creator of everything and ruler over all and He is so in love with me and you! We just don’t get the majesty of Him but we do get a small glimpse and supernatural experiences when we get into our secret prayer closet.
So why am I telling you all this very personal stuff? Because I want you to experience God like I have. I’m not special…I just love God so so so much and I open myself up and let go and let God have His way with me. I told God a long time ago that I want to know and experience everything thing that a human being can experience with Him. There use to be a TV commercial for a bath water softener that said” Calgon… take me away”. I’ve said that to the Lord….” Lord… take me away!” Tell me everything and show me everything about yourself.
This life….our world….our existence is….ALL ABOUT HIM!!!! HE IS EVERYTHING!!! WE OWE HIM EVERYTHING!!!! None of this stuff down here on earth is as important as He is!!! We just don’t always remember or can’t grasp the fact that this is not our home…we are passing through on our way to the greatest thing that will ever happen to us….eternal life with our God!!!!
Just thinking about all God is and what He’s done for us makes me want to cry out from depths of my heart…”I love you God!!!” Thank you Jesus!!! We can’t even thank Him enough….all we can do is cry out our love and appreciation. We need to live our lives for Him so that we can bring glory to His Holy name.
I want to worship God in the deepest way I can. The more I worship God the less afraid I feel about getting through this difficult journey of life. I’m feeling this message very deeply. I feel the Holy Spirit is leading me to write this message today. I am stepping out on a limb with this message because it’s extremely personal but I feel led to give it. The cure and the answer for the Church…which is you and I is to love God very deeply. We should humble ourselves….. worship the Lord….and love Him from deep inside our heart. Stop all the busyness. All the running all over the place…get off that cell phone….turn off the TV sometimes….cut back on all the extra activities and get to the secret place and worship the Lord your God. Time is running out. Catastrophes are happening so fast and furious that nobody is promised 1 more day of life. We must seek God and get others to seek God with all their heart.
This Supernatural Being is our God and Father. We should …in our mind and heart…be on our face before Him bowed down in a very humbled position because… who are we really? We are His humbled servants and this is what we will be doing in heaven. Every knee will bow to God… but who is willing to do it now….when this act of humility will impress God the most because we have never seen His face but we believe everything about Him. Oh people of God…..let’s worship Him now.
In the days to come….I feel God will be giving me messages for this season in human history. We all see the signs and we all sense that something is going on. All eyes should be on God. We should all be looking to the Hills. I feel urgency in my spirit today unlike I’ve never felt before. Oh Lord…my God….I do so worship you! I bow before you and give you all the honor and praise that you deserve.
“Lord…help us to see the seriousness of the times and help us to know how much we need to worship you. Holy Spirit help us in our worship of God. Help us to have a humble servants heart and attitude. Help us to completely let go in our secret prayer closet and get into that place of deep worship. Thank you for all you’ve done and will do for us….in Jesus name …Amen”
God rewards those who diligently seek him or in other words…..sincerely or earnestly look for Him!

Thank you for sharing this testimony. I am a man, so this is a little awkward for me at church. Normally during worship but also (sometimes) when I am praying for others. It is uncomfortable because I feel like I should be more emotionally stable, but the fact is, it is not emotionally driven. The tears just come when I feel the strong presence of the Holy Spirit.
PS: I don’t mind at home, when praying alone. When the tears hit me, it does normally drive me to my face on the floor. It is like the ‘calling card’ of God’s presence there at that moment.

Hi Christian. So glad you worship God. The kind of worship I’m talking about here is close the door in the room and worship privately kin of worship. I have been moved during a service but keep it kind of mellow as not to draw too much attention because it all about God. I would not want to stand out more than what others are doing. There’s been times that have been a lot but I just leave the service and go somewhere in the private in the church until I get myself together and then go back into the service. God bless you!

Thank you for this post, Tanya. I want to learn to worship and pray deeply like this also. For about a year now, I’ve been spending extra time alone with God (without distractions of cell phone, TV, computer, etc.) each week, but it’s been mostly Bible reading and praying; also asking and trying to listen for God’s answers. (He is so faithful!) I guess I haven’t learned to really worship and humble myself and relax in His presence. I’m praying that I’ll be able to do that more and more. The detail of your experience of intimacy with God encourages me to keep seeking that deeper walk with Him. Thank you again.
God bless you!

Welcome back Dawn to the family of God!!! The first thing to get back right with God is to repent….have a change of mind and heart of sinful things you did. Get a bible and start reading and studying girl! Know what God is saying to you in His word. Ask the Lord to help you…talk to Him. Whatever sinful things you were doing before….well try to work on being better with Jesus help. Try to keep away from things/people that will bring you down. Find a good bible teaching church and go often. Pray pray pray…talk to God! You can do this and not backslid this time. I pray that you will draw closer to the Lord in Jesus name. God bless you and keep you Dawn. You can always reach me in the side bar…oh…I want to tell you that God said….He loves you so much!! He said you needed to hear that!

Thank you for your post. Sometimes I will put in my earbuds, put on worship music, and worship Him through song. Thing is, I almost always end up crying: either overcome by love for Him, sadness for what this fallen world has become & for those who reject Him, sadness & repentant over my own failures, joy & gratitude for what He’s done for us, or other reasons. Sometimes I wonder if He gets tired of my blubbering and honestly sometimes I let that stop me from worshipping Him in that way (because I know I will end up weeping). Sometimes I wonder if the tears that are wiped away in Heaven are tears of love and gratitude? I don’t think I enter into what you are talking about because I don’t hear anything back from Him. Sometimes I wonder if I’m doing it wrong because it seems like a one way conversation, I try to listen but it’s hard & I never hear from Him during these times. I tell myself that I need to worship even if He is silent, He’s still worthy regardless. Sometimes I imagine angels joining in with me and worshipping Him together. I never hear from Him, but I hope the Holy Spirit can take my crude attempts at worship & make them beautiful &pleasing. I do know that I’m a child of God &He loves me, even if I can’t seem to get in that deep place now. It would be nice, but at least I know I will be hearing from Him in heaven, I so look forward to it. Sorry for my rambling thoughts, but thanks for reading.
In Christ.

Hi Courtney…Thanks for stopping by my blog. God does see our good tears. See this blog I wrote on that: https://godspeaks-i-listen.com/2012/04/24/god-please-dont-wipe-away-my-good-tears/
Please don’t say your crude attempts at worship. God loves all worship to Him and doesn’t think of it as crude. We all worship differently and it touches the heart of God when we are sincere in worship or worship from our heart. So just relax and enjoy your times of worship to Him. You seem like a very sweet and thoughtful person. God bless you and draw you close!

Oh msinop….please don’t feel discouraged!!! It’s not to make you feel bad about not getting there. You love the Lord…right? You serve Him and praise His Holy name…right? Then you are good. Start off by singing Him a song…like… I Love You Lord or Holy Holy Holy. Then after you sing…just talk to Him or meditate on where He is and who He is and that He is a supernatural being and the creator of ALL things.
Then this is my GREATEST secret….Tell Him you love Him over and over and think of all the things HE’s done for you. Close you eyes and let go. Listen for Him telling you He loves you too. Don’t open your eyes…just stay in the moment until you don’t hear anything outside of your mind or around the room you’re in. Your breathing will slow down as you are consumed by His presence.
Sometimes He will tell you things…Sometimes things or people you pray for will come up and it’s like you are right there with Him and He knows what’s on your mind and in your heart and He may give you a direct answer. You may have to wait to get into this place with Him because you just can’t get your mind into it. Sometimes you can fall asleep. But don’t feel bad…just keep trying at another time. After this wonderful time in the Lord happens…the Glory of the Lord will stay with you for hours or a few days but eventually it will fade.
You just keep seeking the Lord and HE will refill you. Sometimes you can have a very dry season…sometimes for a very long time. Thank God for bible study and prayer and church and worshipping the Lord. You just keep on seeking Him and loving Him anyway. I pray for you my dear sister…that the Holy Spirit will fill you to overflow…in Jesus name…Amen

Deb….I have prayed in the secret place many times as God had called me to be a prayer intercessor for many many years. But I find it harder now with the “to do” list and the illness I suffer with. The secret place is physically hard and takes a good chunk of time and this has gotten harder for me to do. It’s very important to read the bible, devotions, pray and attend church like you said and I’m so glad you do. Everyone should have some of the secret place times because it is so awesome and make us feel so good and less fearful about life and it lets you know how real God is when He responds to you in this way. It’s like a earthly reward or spiritual treat. Some people never get to do this but have a wonderful relationship with God. If you can do it…. it will enhance ones life. We are all busy these days because it the nature of our lives in 2013. I pray that you will get to experience the secret place. God bless you Deb!
