How to Hear God- VisionS from the Lord

So there is this class (optional) on tuesday nights after dinner for an hour. it was my first time tonight and it was amazing. At first i didn't want to go, but i am sooo glad that i did. if you have ever wondered how to hear God then just be in total silence for 15 minutes and then pray for 30 minutes, thats what i did, its different though for some.
To guide our time the leader gave us 2 questions: "who have You (God) created me to be?" and "How can i become more like Christ?" And it took a while but then the Lord gave me this vision
I saw like a stadium packed, like a baseball field with people in every seat and covering the field, so much so that there was barely standing room. All of the sudden one person stand, raise their hands (like in victory) as if they are releasing chains (bondage). Then all of them stand and there are chains on their hands and each and everyone of them stand and the chains break and fall to the floor.
Then a little while later i was wondering who that first person was, and the Lord told me that it was me. and that "Their bondage will break just like yours will" in those exact words. I began to cry because it was the first time that i had heard the voice of God that clear; it was mind-blowing. Then when i was asking, who have You created me to be He said, "I (me) will be a powerful woman of God"... it was amazing, again he spoke to me with such clarity.

Since Tuesday night i have had 5 images/ visions...the first was the one above, then there was one of a man standing in a boat casting a line (fishing) out of a tiny boat and everytime he throws the line out he comes out with a fish, but the fish looks like a person. There are mounds of them (fish) in this tiny boat...Then i felt like the 'fish' were being given a second chance to redeem the missed opportunities by being taken out of the ocean (current situation).

Then the next was, i saw from someone's perspective standing facing a wall there were some missing pieces of it and they desperately wanted to be through the wall to the other side. through the missing pieces i could see a worn path with grass and a full tree with shade. then the person began to take one piece off the wall and it fell completely down and then it ended. i didn't get to see whether the person walked over the pieces to the tree or not, but it was like bondage being broken down and then freedom was at the tree but you still had to walk the path to the tree.

Monday (February 16, 2009) I saw a picture of what bondage looks like. It was a person standing and overtime b/c of actions/ lifestyle a weed very slowly attached itself to the person starting at the toes and moving up until eventually the person couldn't move. The only thing was it that they couldn't remember when it began so they didn't know how to stop it. When they were eventually cut off from the bondage it was the weed at their feet that was cut from the root and eventually the weed was dead and it fell off the person but it wasn't immediately. and the root was still there able to re-attach itself, so the person had the choice to walk away or to stay and allow it to come back , unless they allow God to yank out the root and destroy it to the source.

Right after that one i saw another. it looked like a sign that my quad has on our door, but in the vision i couldn't see what it said but i know it is important. It was a sign with words and overtime somehow someone used whiteout and did it over the words, but at such a slow pace the people didn't see the change even though they saw it everyday. And then one day once the sign was completely white, someone walked up and wondered what happened to the sign...This is how bondage is if you don't pay attention.
