Psalm 46:10 - Communion with God - part three - His Will or Mine?

Psa 46:10 (KJV)  Be still, and know that I am God: I will be 
exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. 

We must individually hear Him speaking to the heart. When every 
other voice is hushed, and in quietness we wait before Him, the 
silence of the soul makes more distinct the voice of God. He bids us, 
"Be still, and know that I am God."[2 PS. 46:10.] Here alone can 
true rest be found.  And this is the effectual preparation for all 
labor for God.  DA363 

Learn To Value What God Values: "I will hear what God the Lord 
will speak" (Ps. 85:8). Blessed is the soul which hears the Lord 
speaking within, and from His mouth receives the word of consolation. 
Blessed are the ears that catch the pulses of the divine whisper (Matt. 
13:16, 17), and give no heed to the whisperings of this world. Blessed 
indeed are those ears which listen not after the voice which is 
sounding without, but for the truth teaching inwardly. Blessed are the 
eyes that are shut to outward things, but intent on things inward. 
Blessed are they that enter far into things within, and endeavor to 
prepare themselves more and more, by daily exercises, for the receiving 
of heavenly secrets. Blessed are they who are glad to have time to 
spare for God, and who shake off all worldly hindrances. Consider 
these things, O my soul, and shut up the door of your sensual desires, 
that you may hear what the Lord your God speaks in you (Ps. 85:8). 
Thus says your Beloved, "I am thy salvation," your Peace, and your 
Life: keep yourself with Me, and you shall find peace. Let go all 
transitory things, and seek the things eternal. What are all transitory 
objects but seductive things? And what can all creatures avail, if you 
are forsaken by the Creator?  Renounce therefore all things, and 
labor to please your Creator, and to be faithful unto Him, that you 
may be able to attain unto true blessedness.  Thomas a Kempis [Time 
With God SB re Mark 8,9] 

"Do Not Quench the Spirit"; The voice of the Spirit of God is as 
gentle as a summer breeze-so gentle that unless you are living in 
complete fellowship and oneness with God, you will never hear it. [In His 
Time; My Utmost For His Highest re 1Th.5:19]
