I enjoyed the session and to my pleasure she spoke about the importance of soaking. I knew of the concept of "soaking", which is to soak in and with the Lord. To spend time with Jesus, usually with soft praise music and quiet. Just you and the Lord. No Bible, no cell phone, no paper. Just good conversation and hopefully a vision or two. Beni Johnson actually ended her session with 20 minutes of soaking.
I was thinking how cool it would be to have the night end with some soaking. Since I also love to share new tools that bring us closer to God with the kids I decided to have some soaking time as part of our bedtime routine tonight. I played some music by Alberto and Kimberly Rivera. Great stuff and you can find them on Spotify!
So I played some music for my 2 year old to go to sleep by and my older two boys and I had about 15 minutes of soaking with the Lord. My four year old doesn't yet understand the concept of talking to Jesus in your head but that is ok. I figure I am laying down the foundation for a strong relationship with the Lord on the cellular level for him. My 6 year old loved it. He even had a vision of an angel telling him not to be afraid and another vision of floating up to heaven and speaking to Jesus. He so inspires me!
I am still on a journey to "see" Jesus in my spirit. But I know as I spend more time chatting and soaking Him up, my spiritual eyes will open up and that will be as real to me as my physical surroundings. I did get to have a good chat with my Father Jesus and it is so nice and peaceful in the house.
I will definitely be taking a good soak on a regular basis. Thank you Jesus for new revelation on how to walk daily with you.
