"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." Psalm 91:1
Where is the secret place of the most High? The secret place of the most High is the inner man. In you is where God can be found and known and understood. The secret place is hidden in your heart. To go there you must allow God to have you and you must yield to His word. The secret place is where you go to be with God, just to be with God.
If there are preconceived ideas you have not entered into the secret place.
If there is un-confessed sin in your life you have not entered into the secret place.
If you have a plan to extract something from God you have not entered into the secret place.
If you cannot lay down your ego you cannot enter into the secret place.
The secret place is where you go to find your true self without the facade of years of conditioning.
The secret place is where you go to hear from God. It is the place where God speaks to your condition. Most people cannot go because they think God only speaks into their situation to make them rich or to get them a new love or a new boat or to bail them out of their ignorance. And yes God will do all the above, but that's not the secret place.
The secret place is not locked, but it is also not accessed with your intellect. It is only accessed by faith. The deepest part of your being is where God resides and to get there you have to pass through: years of learning false doctrines of men, years of cultural conditioning, years of subversive advertisements, years of ungodly input and even if you break through all these you are faced with your own ego and that too must be crushed to talc just to enter in. Then to stay there you must agree with God. This is why so few people go into the secret place and the main reason why people do not return. In the secret place God speaks to His creation and not everything that God speaks is going to tickle your fancy. You will find out how far we have fallen (as a people) from our true nature. You will see things as they are without the fluff. All the personages that you use to be who you want people to think you are are stripped away.
The real you is a beautiful spirit, full of God and full of His holiness, full of life and worthy to be called a child of the living God. Stripped down without the facade you look like Jesus. The secret place is where you get to see you as God made you. It is the place to go if you want to be more like Jesus. But in the secret place there are no games, no playing loyal, no acting like you're something you're not, no one to blame, no one to point a finger at, no excuses.
The secret place is comfortable for anyone not afraid to lose themselves, not afraid to be converted, not afraid to be sent on a mission, not afraid of having to make alterations to their plan, not afraid to be revealed. God loves you and God designed the secret place to be that holy place for you and God to commune. The only reason we are afraid to go there, is because in the inner man where the secret place is, we already know that we have made some changes to that man or woman of God, that we will have to become to go to the secret place.
