Introduction

This book is a compilation of the invaluable lessons I've learned and the profound ways in which I've come to know the Lord. He has become my most trusted friend, a relationship that has blossomed in the secret place. Prior to this revelation, my experience of God's power was minimal, if at all present. Now, it's time for the Church to ascend to new heights of spiritual authority.

There's a common desire among believers for the transfer of God's power through the laying on of hands. While there's some truth to the effectiveness of real impartation, it's crucial to understand that it doesn't come without a cost. This book, which has been in the making for quite some time, addresses that necessity. It aims to guide you through shedding the constraints of religion, drawing nearer to God, tapping into His power, and experiencing Heaven on earth.

God has revealed to me that the purpose of this book is to lead His people to the Secret Place, where they can unlock and embrace His power.

The Secret Place

Understanding the imperative to dwell in the Secret Place and remain in close communion with our Almighty God is at the heart of our spiritual journey.

This chapter explores the preparation of our hearts for a devotion that transcends our private moments of prayer and permeates every facet of our lives.

We initiate our exploration with a biblical portrayal of the Secret Place, illuminated by a concise study on the life of Joshua.

In Psalm 91, the Secret Place is depicted as a bastion of protection, offering refuge and fortress under the Almighty's shadow. This divine sanctuary shields us from harm, embodies trust, and assures us of safety amidst the chaos of life. The psalms eloquently describe the provision and protection afforded to those who reside in God's presence, emphasizing the promise of divine intervention and support.

The scripture further unfolds the dimensions of provision and promotion, revealing the comprehensive care and elevation promised to those who seek and love God earnestly. These passages underscore the availability of the Secret Place to every believer, inviting us to delve deeper into the intimate fellowship and understanding of God.

The essence of this chapter, however, transcends the personal benefits one might seek in the Secret Place. It emphasizes the Lord's yearning for a relationship of fellowship and intimacy with us. This is vividly demonstrated in the narrative of Jesus and His disciples, where before granting them power and authority, He first invited them into a relationship of closeness and companionship.

This invitation extends to us, urging us to prioritize our pursuit of God over the pursuit of His blessings. As we earnestly seek Him, delighting in His presence, He promises to fulfill not only our needs but the deepest desires of our hearts.

Our exploration of the Secret Place and its significance is further enriched by examining Jesus' teachings on prayer and fasting, highlighting the rewards of a devoted and private communion with God.

The chapter delineates three pivotal characteristics that endear us to God: an intimate love for Him, a deepening knowledge of His nature, and a relentless pursuit of His presence. These attributes, as explored through Psalm 91:14-16, form the foundation for a life transformed by encounters with God in the Secret Place.

The life of Joshua serves as a compelling example of the transformative power of dwelling in God's presence. Joshua's dedication to the presence of God, his refusal to settle for secondhand experiences of the divine, and his desire to know God personally, positioned him for the unique honor of leading God's people into their promised inheritance.

Joshua's story underscores the profound impact of cultivating a life centered around the Secret Place. It is here, in the depths of personal communion with God, that we are equipped, empowered, and enveloped in His grace. This sacred space, though nurtured in privacy, accompanies us, influencing our environment and inviting the reality of God's kingdom into our daily lives.

In conclusion, the Secret Place is not merely a retreat for spiritual rejuvenation but a realm of divine engagement that shapes our identity, mission, and impact in the world. Joshua's legacy invites us to embrace the Secret Place as the cornerstone of our relationship with God, promising a life of divine satisfaction, victory, and fulfillment.
