How Did King David Live in the Continual Presence of the Lord?

Did you know that King David visualized the Lord at his right hand all the time? I sure didn't. Not until Brad Jersek showed me Acts 2:25.

“David said of him, I saw the Lord before my face at all times, for he is at my right hand, so that I may not be moved” (Acts 2:25 BBE). “I have set the LORD always before me …” (Ps. 16:8 KJV).

King David knew how to abide in the Lord’s presence (Ps. 91).

Have you ever defined what "Godly Imagination" is?

We know what vain imagination is, and what evil imagination is. What is godly imagination?

"Godly imagination" is defined as “Picturing things that God says are true.”

We know God is with us always (Heb. 13:5), and King David saw that reality, by setting the Lord at his right hand. So King David used the eyes of his heart and practiced “godly imagination.” We can and should be doing the same thing - picturing the truths that the Lord wants us to focus on and make a reality in our lives.

But we don't just stop at godly imagination; we follow it up with the prayer for God to illumine the eyes of our hearts (Eph. 1:17,18). We step from the godly imagination into His divine visions (Acts 2:17). This happens when we tune to flow, allowing the Holy Spirit to take over the scene and bring it alive (Jn. 7:37-39).

At that moment we are moving from a godly imagination into a vision where we experience Jesus’ presence and healing touch.

We have learned to live as Jesus, doing only what we see the Father doing (Jn. 5:19,20). How valuable is that!

Prayer: One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD And to meditate in His temple (Ps. 27:4). I have set the LORD continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely (Ps. 16:8,9).

Divine Healing Toolbox CD/DVD Set

Divine Healing Toolbox CD/DVD Set

by Mark Virkler | 1 CD, 1 DVD

Jesus healed all who asked Him and our goal is to be like Him! He commissioned His disciples saying, "Heal those...who are sick, and say to them, 'The kingdom of God has come near to you'" (Lk. 10:9).

We begin with the assumption that we agree that it is God’s will to heal. Having prayed for healing for people for years, Mark has seen many wonderful miracles and also seen times when it appeared that very little happened. This short teaching describes some practical steps he has learned which make his prayers for healing more effective.

Hearing God Through Biblical Meditation

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 179 Pages | $15.99 retail list price

For many years I studied the Bible incorrectly, and it produced death rather than life. Even though I had a knowledge of the Scriptures, I did not personally experience the life and the realities they revealed. The Bible calls this the ministry of death, rather than the ministry of righteousness (2 Cor. 3:6–9). Upon coming out of Bible college, I found myself just like the apostle Paul, attacking those who disagreed with my theology.

Speaking in tongues involves a miracle wherein you yield your vocal cords to the flow of the Holy Spirit, trusting that God is forming the syllables you speak into a language. It may be a language of men or of angels (1 Cor. 13:1). You choose to speak (Acts 2:4) but you choose not to form the syllables consciously, and instead let the Spirit give the utterance (Acts:2:4).
