Some highlights of transcript
“So recently, I was praying with friends over my “struggle” with hearing God. For many months, I’d been praying for the ability to hear God better. I was envious of others who seemed to get downloads from Him all the time, either through direct dreams or actual thoughts deposited in their brains. Sometimes, I would get an image in my head or maybe see a word; but no active dreaming. I would pray and be met with silence or get distracted.

When I was praying with friends, first, God showed me that I had inadvertently idolised my dad. I grew up being “Daddy’s girl” and he was my key source of comfort. So, when he got sick and passed away, it was devastating and even though it’s been years – I’m still dealing with the wounds. God showed me that instead of having Him as my first love, I had put the memory of my dad up on a pedestal and that is what was blocking me from hearing God. So, I repented for idolising my dad, holding onto earthly comforts and coping mechanisms, and asked God to take the primary position in my heart. After that, my mind became clearer. "
