The following prayer is a powerful one to declare and decree over yourself and your home to help silence the voice of the enemy who may be causing chaos and confusion and preventing you from hearing the voice of the Lord and creating space to hear His voice.

Heavenly Father, I now repent, break, revoke, rebuke and renounce all spirits of fear, doubt, confusion, anxiety and double-mindedness preventing me from communicating with you right now in the Name of Jesus. I muzzle, bind and silence any unclean, demonic, witchcraft and occult spirits with the blood of Jesus and make them null, void and obsolete. I close and seal shut any doorways of the enemy with the blood of Jesus. I declare and decree that I have a mind and heart of Christ, I am a child of the Most High God, I hear my Father’s voice, and I hear my Lord loudly, clearly and confidently. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Dedicate a sacred space in your home, a prayer closet or room that is comfortable and has your Bible, journal and pen. This is a space where you go to every day to be with the Lord. It’s you and His sanctuary.

You can prepare the space each day by saying -

I plead the blood of Jesus over this room. I send blindness and confusion to the enemy’s camp and all monitoring spirits. I declare this room to be the room of Christ and the Holy Spirit, and Father God. Only the Highest Love of God is permitted in this space. In the Name of Jesus I declare this. Amen.

Sitting in your prayer room declare -

“Lord, here I am! What would you have me know right now? I am here and ready to receive you. I love you. “

You can play some worship music in the background to set the energy of the space. Or you can sit quietly in the silence. Allow His Spirit to lead you into the time with Him. Surrender any expectations on how it’s going to look and unfold.

You can also pray -

Lord, please set aside my thoughts, wills, ways, perceptions and projections, so I may clearly here Your wills, ways, perceptions and truth for me. Arrange my thoughts and my heart to be Your thoughts and heart, Lord. In Jesus’s Mighty Name, Amen.

Fasting is another great way to clear the inner vessel to hear from God. You may wish to fast for a day, a few days, a week or a few weeks, its entirely up to you and what you are being led on by God. It can be just drinking water between 6am-12pm or till 2pm and then having a light meal in the evening or it can be all day of just water and then breaking the fast in the evening. Create a fast that works best for you and your life and ask the Holy Spirit to lead and guide on the best ways and times to fast.

If you’re ever unsure if the voice you’ve heard is from the Lord, simply question the spirit by saying -

Do you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord & Saviour and came in the flesh?

If you get a no, state that you muzzle and bind it with the blood of Jesus and declare that you will only hear God’s voice in the Name of Jesus.
