Daniel & Vered-Chen Rozen - Soaking in God's Presence
 

Soaking in God's Presence

 

Turning Hearts Back to the Father –

Through Intimate Praise And Worship

 

Psalm 37:7 „Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for him.” When we soak in God's Presence, we are in a PLACE of REST where we wait upon Him... (Secret Place).

 

Give God Time. Yeshua Messiah – Jesus Christ invested His first 30 years in preparation for His ministry. Moses spent 80 years becoming a great leader. TIME is YOUR FRIEND. DON'T HURRY. REMEMBER – PATIENCE is the WEAPON that forces deception to reveal itself.

 

The Lord is good unto them that waith for Him,to the soul that seeketh Him... It is good that a man should both hope and quietly waith for the salvation of the Lord.” (Lamentations 3:25,26). „Soaking” is a term used to describe the practice of expectantly waiting and resting in God's love:, It is one of the most powerful revelations offered to me...

 

Is 'Soaking' in the Bible? What is soaking? Why do I need to soak? Where can I soak? How do I soak? Can I trust that it is the Holy Spirit working? How long do I continue soaking?

 

This is what the Bible says: Psalm 23:1 „The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul”; Psalm 4:4 „Meditate with in your heart on your bed and be still.”


Matthew 11:28-30 „Come unto me all ye who labor and are heavey laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowy in heart and you will find rest for your souls.”


Hebrews 4:9-11 „There reamin therefore a rest for the people of God. For He who has entered his rest has himself also ceaesed from his work as God did from His. Let us therefor be diligent to enter that rest.”


What is Soaking? 
During previous revival's people referred to it as waiting on the Lord or tarrying as they lingered expecting God's revival blessings. Although „soaking” included waiting on the Lord, in this present move of the Spirit it means much more than that.  To „soak” in God's presence is to rest in His love rather than to strive in prayer. As we rest expectantly in God's presence, the Lord takes control and begins to draw our attention to God's word either in the scripture or through impressions or pictures we see in our minds eye.


Why do I need to Soak?
There is a deep need in every one of us to be close to our God. Experiencing God is something to be sought after and not to be avoided. While we base our theology on God's word, our experiences with God make it all come alive. The Bible is a book of experiences, of men and women of God through out history, whose lives were changed through a divine encounter. Your life will be changed as well as you encounter Him. 


How do I Soak?
You may  sit in a chair  The main thing is to be in a safe place so that you can be vulnerable. Set your affections on Jesus. Experiencing God's presence is what will cause you to love the Lord with all your heart and soul. (Matthew 22:37) Humble yourself before Him. Give all your worries and cares to the Lord talking to Him about them.


Pray a prayer like this. „Adonai Yeshua / Lord Jesus, I invite You to come and search my heart. Come close and let me know your love." Let worship rise up inside you and give yourself to the Lord. If you become distracted, then re-focus on Yeshua Messiah. Remind yourself why you are soaking and listen to the worship music.

 

Can I trust the Holy Spirit is working? Yes, you can. Remember everything we receive from God we receive by faith. Faith must be positive and focused on God. Not negative and fearful. Yeshua Messiah said in Luke 11:11-13 „If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”

 

How long do I continue soaking? It takes about fifteen minutes to quiet the business of life and enter into rest. But Jesus Christ is the Lord of the sabbath, and He wants you to enter into His rest. The fruit of the spirit is love, joy peace, so we need to take quality time with Him. You cannot force or hurry this. The idea is not to "get" something, but to "be" with someone.Take time just to be with Him; to love Him, and let Him love you. If you fall asleep, that`s o.k.


If you are interrupted, you can always come back for more. You will know when your time is finished. You can feel a satisfaction in your heart and a release to go and get on with life.
So, soak and get ready for the wonderful things that  Abba / Father is about to do as we „Catch the Fire”.
