"Draw near to God and He will draw near to you."? James 4:8. When Samuel first heard God's voice, he was "in the tabernacle of the Lord where the ark of God was" (1 Samuel 3:3)
That was a good place to be, because that location was as close to the presence of God as a person could be in those days-unless, of course, he were the high priest who entered the Holy of Holies once a year.
Close to God is where every leader belongs. That doesn't mean you have to be in a place of formal worship; it just means you need to have an attitude of worship wherever you are. It's a posture of the heart. That's a lesson I learned while in college and then took into the ministry.
When I was attending Circleville Bible College, I used to go out to a deserted house after my classes and spend time with God every afternoon. It became my special place to connect with Him. Since then, I've always had a special place I visit to listen to God. If you want to become the kind of person that others listen to, then get better acquainted with God. Connect with Him on a consistent basis, and you will greatly increase the likelihood that you will connect with others.
