God’s truth will illumine, sustain and anchor us. As we take it in and meditate on it, exchanging our old beliefs for his truth, we are powerfully renewed, redirected and changed. His life begins to permeate us; His Spirit creates new understanding. God’s exchange program is to take the words from the world, flesh and devil that are crippling and menacing, arrest them and exchange them for life-giving truth! Write out these thoughts and release them to the Cross, asking God to take them. Then, listen and receive what He is giving you in exchange, renewing your mind. By doing this, you are replacing the toxic with the true, the broken with the whole. His word unfailingly bears fruit in due season, restoring us to wholeness.
Steps to listening prayer:
1. Begin by acknowledging His Presence. Thank Him that He is with you.
2. Write out the negative thoughts you have been having.
3. Take time to be still and listen to what God is saying now to replace the lies.
4. If He gives Scripture, read and take it in. Ezek. 3:1 “Eat what you find; eat the scroll.” Scripture has authority possessed by no human word or reasoning.
5. Spontaneously respond to the word with thanks and worship.
6. Continue to meditate on and cultivate what God has given.
