“The things we most need to know, solve & figure out will be healed at the listening level- that place within us where God’s spirit witness with our spirit (Rom 8:16). Here God speaks to us of things that cannot be understood through human wisdom or shuffled around & filed away in the mind.”

The listening begins in the resting when our pace has slowed- our mind begins to settle + we can begin to listen- we are told to BE STILL + KNOW Psalm 46:10

It is in the stillness that we find the knowing- the understanding the spirit of wisdom + revelation

“I keep asking that the God of our lord Jesus Christ, the glorious father may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation.” Ephesians 1:17

BE STILL + KNOW: raphah yada (hebrew)
raphah: to relax; withdraw 

To let go
To be quiet
Yada: to know, learn to know
perceive , see, find out & discern, to consider to have knowledge, be wise
