At the core all intimacy with God is abiding within his heart, the very deep part of God, his innermost core. God longs for us to partake of His divine nature (2 Peter 1:4), to be so enveloped in his love that we become true mirrors of himself, true mirrors of the nature of Jesus Christ in all love.

We can approach God to experience his all embracing love with deep compassion and mercy that causes us to be undone at our very core. It is love that strips away all guilt, shame and removes all excuses that say we can not receive love. His love fully embraces us as we are and tells us we are good enough, we are precious, highly esteemed by God and deeply loved.

As we rest in his presence and focus on his love, whether through soaking with music, meditating on his scriptures, through prayer or other means, our spirits enter into a realm of reality within the love of God, his beating heart room (or realm) in the spirit.

Many people have experienced this realm in heaven and describe it as a room made from the flesh of a heart. It is a “living” room which envelopes our spirits in the deep love of our Father. In his love our spirits are nursed in his healing balm, deep in the heart of God full which is full of the spiritual blood of Jesus Christ that heals our wounds and soothes our souls.

If we were to recount where the Father’s room is located, many will no doubt recount different journeys to get there, and recount different aspects of the room, depending on what our Father was ministering to them at the time.

As the Father’s heart room is akin to a living, beating heart, so the heart can show us spiritual impartation we can receive from his room. The human heart has four compartments, one for entry, one for exit and two atriums. The heart is responsible for making the blood flow through our bodies, which brings vital nutrients to us and carries away waste and toxins such as carbon dioxide.

Spiritually the Father’s heart room brings us life, and washes away the toxins and wounds in our soul. As we spend time in the Father’s heart room, our spirit is enveloped in the spiritual blood of Jesus Christ, which ministers healing into our soul. This is akin to the life giving nutrients in blood. The spirit of God also washes away hurts, pains, trauma and grief and so fulfills the prophecy that by Jesus’ wounds we are healed (Isaiah 53:5).

His love pours into our hearts and changes us over time. As we draw near to God by faith we may sense a change within us. We may soften towards God and we may find ourselves full of compassion. We may also sense a physiological change whereby our breathing changes, our body relaxes and we feel more lucid. This is one example of a physical effect of our spirit becoming more aware of our dwelling within the heart room of our Father and receiving of his loving care.

We may approach the Father’s Heart room by faith and receive the benefits of dwelling in his love. Over time, our inner being becomes more attuned to the love, compassion, gentleness, kindness and patience of God among many other of his divine characteristics.

Being bathed and soaked in God’s love is hugely beneficial as we embark on exploration of the heavenly realms, for faith, hope and love are foundations of the heavenly realms upon which they work. So as we attune into those characteristics of God through spending time in faith, abiding in his heart, we align with the beat of heaven. We will find that moving with heaven in our Father’s timing much easier, patience becomes a joy as opposed to a waiting game, as we eagerly yet patiently wait for the fulfilment of prophetic words and our Father’s will.

As we tune into the heart of God, our perspective on evil, suffering and ill-fortune changes as our focus becomes eternity focussed and our motivations more in tune with the all compassionate love of God.

As patience is developed on the foundation of love mixed with hope in faith, our engagement with the angelic realm can mature and deepen. No longer needing to see immediate action but by faith becoming one at rest with the spiritual surroundings, moving from “needing” to engage or “release” angelic activity, to an outlook of waiting on revelation from Father.

Although all of this comes with time, experience and maturing in the presence of God it is a journey worth taking. I have personally moved from jumping up and down with excitement because of an angelic encounter, to being secure in resting with a revelation after the Holy Spirit or an angel has told me to remain silent until a certain time, or event, has passed.
