Matthew 6:6 "When you pray,
go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is
in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you
openly."
Having a secret stillness before God means deliberately
shutting the door on our emotions and remembering Him. God is in secret, and He
sees us from “the secret place”— He does not see us as other people do, or as
we see ourselves.
When we truly live in “the secret place,” it becomes
impossible for us to doubt God. We become more sure of Him than of anyone
or anything else. Enter into “the secret place,” and you will find that God was
right in the middle of your everyday circumstances all the time. Get into
the habit of dealing with God about everything.
Unless you learn to open the door of your life completely
and let God in from your first waking moment of each new day, you will be
working on the wrong level throughout the day. But if you will swing the door
of your life fully open and “pray to your Father who is in the secret place,”
every public thing in your life will be marked with the lasting imprint of the
presence of God.
