It’s as Simple as a Choice – Journaling Prayer by LaWanda

Mark Virkler's picture

LaWanda – O Jesus, precious Lord, Holy One, how you continue to reveal yourself to me!  O Thank you, Jesus.  Your word to me is so full of life, Lord.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.


Jesus, how do I see you today?  O Lord, I’m at your feet again.  I think this is my favorite place to be, Lord.  At your feet with my head on your thigh.  O how sweet is time spent here in your presence.  Resting upon this Rock of my Salvation.  Calling out to Him, praising Him.  Touching Him.  Having your hand on me, Lord, imparting ALL that I need…to do what you have called me to do.  Even as I rest here, Lord, keep me conscious of you today, Lord, and impart to me now all I need to give you glory.  Help me to do this, Lord.  It is my heart’s desire.

Jesus – O My dear LaWanda, My precious one, you will be conscious today.  As I said yesterday, I am breathing My breath into you and it IS changing you, bringing to mind ALL that you need, exactly when you need it.  All to glorify Me, to keep you in fellowship with Me.  Confessing your sin is good but better to not even go there in the first place.  Simply make a choice in that moment and choose Me.  And as you do, you will find more and more opportunities to do so every day.  Not that you are constantly sinning.  No, but Satan is constantly poking at you, trying to find a place where you will succumb.  And when he finds one, LaWanda, it’s as simple as a choice.  Just say My name.  Just say “Jesus.”  Quietly in your mind say, “NO, I am choosing Jesus in this moment.  I may be weak in the next one, but in THIS one – in THIS moment – I am choosing Him.”

Submit yourself to Me in this moment.  Resist the devil and he WILL flee.  He MUST.  My word says it.  He MUST go!  Then thank Me for the grace that you have just been given and go on about your day.  Remember, dear one, that I am with you…ALWAYS.  So there is NEVER a time when you are without Me.  I abide in you forever and you in Me…for ETERNITY!!!

Rest in these thoughts, LaWanda.  The Spirit of Him who raised Me for the dead abides in you and gives life to you.  What a glorious thought this is!  Do you realize just how powerful you are, LaWanda with a capital “W”?  Ponder these thoughts, dear one.  Meditate on these verses.  Let them strengthen you deep within your soul, as I breathe fresh courage for this day into you. Let it bring your faith to life, dear one, as you choose Me again and again!

How Do You Know? eBook

How do you know? What is the process you use to discover truth? I did not ask that question during the first 25 years of my life.

If my theology said it was so, then it was so.

How to Walk by the Spirit eBook

How to Walk by the Spirit eBook

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 136 Pages

Are you like many western Christians who have been taught little about how to sense their spirits? Do you have trouble even defining what spirit sensations feel like within you, much less recognizing them? This training was birthed from Mark’s passion to live out of his spirit, and thus release the anointing of God. The problem he faced was lack of clear biblical definition as to what his spirit felt like. So Mark looked up every verse in the Bible on heart and spirit.

Imagine That eBook

Imagine That eBook

by Rev. Jimmy D. Smith | 85 Pages

Beginning sometime around my 72nd year, my imagination really started to wake up again.  I was reading Dialogue with God, by Mark and Patti Virkler, when wheels began to turn.  In the weeks that followed I decided that this was a “do” book, not just a “read to learn” book. I began to do what the book suggested. Somewhere along the line I felt that the Lord gave me permission to experience the freedom of using my imagination to worship Him, to talk to Him, and more importantly to hear from Him.
