“BE STILL!”

Psalm 46:10                    (ESV

    [10] “”BE STILL”, and KNOW that I AM GOD.

        I WILL BE exalted among the nations,

        I WILL BE exalted in the earth!”

As I start another day, my mind is seemingly ATTACKED by “the enemy” doing anything and everything possible to get my focus off of THE CREATOR!  One devotional states the following:

“Satan attacks today’s children of GOD, not by trying to make them bad or busy, but by distracting them.

In addition, silence can be uncomfortable, but it’s essential for tuning into GOD's voice. In Psalm 46:10, GOD commands us, “Be still, and know that I am GOD.” To hear HIM, WE MUST CREAT INTENTIONAL SPACES OF SILENCE”.  

Even during my sleep my mind is “apparently” locked-in on other things??  I can dream the wildest dreams imaginable, ALL WITH NO SELF INTENTION TO DO SO!  That MIGHT make the probability of HEARING FROM GOD almost IMPOSSIBLE??  How can I “LET GO” of “this world” and be IN TUNE with GOD when I am NOT IN CONTROL of my mind when I am asleep??

This conundrum might be beyond my comprehension AT THIS TIME, but my brain MUST HAVE the intention of being CONTROLLED by the HOLY SPIRIT!!  I have to BELIEVE that it isn’t by chance or circumstance?  My last thought before I drift off to sleep NEEDS to be to “BE STILL” and be TRANSFORMED by the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSES!!!
