"Of course, the Lord talks to you more as you talk to Him more. It's like most other relationships, the Lord loves to have you talk to Him! Several years ago I asked the Lord what I, insignificant speck that I am, could do to minister to His heart in some small way. I said 'Father, you have such terrible burdens. You have the whole world and all of its troubles to look after. Is it possible for me to do anything, to give you pleasure, or to minister to your heart?'
His answer was 'Yes! Talk to Me child! Talk to me. Most people only ask Me for things. They aren't willing to talk to Meand make Me a part of their everyday life.'
That's what He wants. God desires to have our fellowship.”

"I must tell the truth, and the unpalatable truth is that everyone who comes out of occultic involvements will undergo demonic torment for various periods of time. Jesus illustrated this very well in His parables:
quote Matthew 12: 43-45
Clearly when Demons are cast out of a person, they will try to get back in, and if they are unsuccessful, they will go and get seven other stronger than themselves to try to get back in, but Jesus also said:

“The Holy Spirit is the only one I know of who can convict someone of their wrongness in these areas without destroying them! I believe this is the meaning of the Scripture which says: And above all things have fervent charity [love] among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8) If we truly love someone, and they do many things that irritate us, we will get on our face before the Lord and ask God to deal with us so that we can fulfill the conditions of love.”

“It has been my experience that when I am having difficulties with someone in my home through their rebellion or whatever, the most effective way of dealing with the situation is to get on my face before the Lord and ask Him to deal with me. Almost always, the Holy Spirit shows me some area of my life that is not totally pleasing to Him. As I deal with that area, I find that the Lord is then free to deal with the problem in the other person’s life without my ever having to talk to them.”

“Many times people ask me how I pray for our protection, food, bills, etc. My answer is, “I don’t.” I have already covenanted with God for them and I see no need to waste His time, and my own, by praying for things already covered in a covenant. It is my business to walk in obedience to the Lord, and it is His business to provide for me and guide me.”

“There is one other reason for my not hearing the Lord when I am in distress. Recently, I experienced a situation that caused me much grief. I sought the Lord earnestly, but did not hear Him speak to me until after the situation had been resolved. I was not in rebellion against Him, rather, my prayer was, “Father, Thy will be done, I accept it whatever it is.” Later, the Lord showed me that my emotions were so intense that they blocked me from hearing Him. I asked, “What can I do to prevent this from happening again?” His answer was, “You cannot do anything, you cannot control your emotions. I just want you to ask Me, and I will take care of them for you.” How simple the answer! If you are in an intensely emotional situation and seem to be unable to hear the Lord, perhaps it is because of one of these two reasons.”

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. (Galatians 6:7) Please notice, no exceptions are made here for Christians!”

'43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. 44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. 45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.' Matthew 12: 43-45

'29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.'

"We cannot call upon the gifts or force them to operate in our lives whenever we choose. They are in operation only when God chooses. We must walk in obedience and faith. Part of that faith is understanding and acceptance that the gifts operate only as the Lord wants them to.”

“Page 29-30:
"No, God is God, and He works however He wants. He works in each person's life differently. The scripture commands '...be filled with the spirit' (Ephesians 5:18. You have asked the Lord to fill you with His Holy Spirit and you have made a total commitment to Him. Now you must get down on your knees and, in faith, thank Him for keeping His promise and ask Him to work in your life as He chooses. Then go on and you will see the Lord begin to change your life.”
