The 4 Keys: Am I Doing It Wrong?
Question from Megan Montgomery: Hi, in a vision can I visualize myself as a child or an adult? I usually visualize myself as a child. For some reason, I struggle to visualize myself as an adult. I use the visual prayer A Stroll Along the Sea of Galilee. I imagine myself as a child before it says you may turn into a young child. In most of my visions, I am a child. Also, how do I keep my eyes fixed on Jesus as I write? Sometimes my mind goes all over or the vision seems to move (ex: I am dancing with Jesus). I do not know if I am doing something wrong. I ask the Holy Spirit to make Jesus come alive also.
His Passionate Love by Debra Guthrie
Hearing God's voice is as simple as: 1) quieting myself down (Ps. 62:5), 2) beholding Jesus at my right hand (Acts 2:25), 3) asking for His input and tuning in to flowing thoughts and flowing pictures (Jn. 7:37-39), and 4) journaling out His words and visions (Rev. 1:9-11). These are then tested, and they must line up with Scripture (Ps. 1:2) and be affirmed in the hearts of my spiritual advisors (2 Cor. 13:1).
Since God is lovesick, we want to train you how to teach your friends to hear His voice
The article below is excerpted from this month's CWG Newsletter. I was thrilled that the Lord allowed me to teach the 4 Keys every other weekend for several years. I know as I was on the flight out to the next seminar I thanked God for this opportunity, as I found as I repeated these principles, they were established more deeply in me.
Most Christians want to have a deeper relationship with God and hear His voice more clearly. Because we love Him, we want to talk with Him, know His heart, and just spend time with Him. But how often do we recognize that the same is true for Him? He is the Lover of our souls. He created us with this ability to love and this longing for His love.
Beginning in Genesis when He initiated daily times together with the man and woman He created, actually seeking them out even when they tried to avoid Him, all the way through to Revelation when the culmination of creation is the celebration of His marriage to His Bride the Church, the Scriptures make it clear that God the Father, Jesus our Savior, and Holy Spirit all love us and want to spend time with us. God is Love, and Love must be expressed in word and deed.
I recently posted some wonderful journaling by Debra Guthrie. If you haven’t read it yet, I encourage you to do so. Here is a small portion of what Debra heard from Jesus one day:
“I am lovesick. I am lovesick for my Bride…I yearn for her—her company, affection, companionship…I long for her every minute. I look for her every hour. I count the days that we are apart.”
“Tell her I am waiting for her, watching for her, eagerly anticipating the return of her absent attentions.”
“My Bride…my beautiful Bride…Come back to me!”
“You will tell her, won’t you? Tell her I am lovesick.”
If you have experienced two-way journaling for very long, you have probably heard similar expressions of God’s longing for His Church in general and for you specifically. I have found that actually hearing God’s words of love through journaling is the most effective way to persuade our hearts of His love for us. We may have had a theology that God loves us but that doesn’t become revelation until we experience His words of love in our own hearts.
Jesus wants us to not only enjoy our own times with Him but to spread the good news that He loves all His children and wants to spend time with them, as well. Have you told anyone how much God wants to have conversations with them? Are you prepared to lead others into the special relationship you have with the Lord? Can you teach others how to hear His voice?
This month marks the 10th anniversary of our ministry offering free video events, and it is only fitting that we return to where we started with the four keys to hearing God’s voice. This is our foundational message upon which everything else we teach is built! We encourage you to watch it if you have never seen it before. Your life will be changed.
Review, deepen, share this gift with others, promote revival
Watch it again, even if you think you know the four keys. Everyone who does so reports that the Lord shows them new things every time they watch.
Watch it with your family. What better way to strengthen your relationships with each other and with the Lord?
Gather a group and watch it with your friends. New believers and those who have walked with God for decades all are touched by this message of how much God wants to talk with them and how easy it is for them to hear His voice.
Jesus is waiting and longing. Will you tell them?

Rest in This Truth – Journaling Prayer by LaWanda
LaWanda - I see you, Lord Jesus, standing behind me with your hands on my shoulders. I can feel in the warmth of your hands, your love flowing into me. O Lord, I could sit here forever, but that is not your plan. Your plan is to fill me up and send me out so that the love you pour into me can be poured out and into those around me. O Lord, how I need to sit before you every day so that my tank is full. Thank you, Jesus, that there is a never-ending supply of your love. Help me to listen well today as Holy Spirit guides me.
How do I get past the battle with doubt?
Bev asks: The Lord speaks to me mostly via dreams and images. I have heard His voice in my inner ear, but that is seldom. I too, am left-brained and I struggle with every little bit achieved. It takes me forever to recognize that the fleeting image I've seen is His voice. I feel awkward and foolish speaking in tongues - it does not seem to flow naturally, and I constantly doubt and question. How do I overcome doubt? How do I get past the questioning to relax and enjoy the presence of the Lord? How do I get past the constant feeling of foolishness whenever I share what I've seen or heard?

Two Small Things You Can Do to Practice Your Faith in the Marketplace by Dave Kahle
For many Christian professionals and businesspeople, the prospect of practicing our faith in the marketplace is overwhelming. It’s easy to remain paralyzed in the face of so many things calling for our time and attention. In the face of an overwhelming number of choices, most marketplace Christians default to what’s comfortable and familiar, which is to focus on worldly success in business and give up on having an impact for the Kingdom.

Gender roles in the home
Question sent with a request I blog out an answer: I would love to know more about content along the lines of gender (husband, wife) - I am specifically referring to the roles, freedoms, limitations and relationship structures that exist for males and females in the home. The Western Church culture seems to have a view on gender set in stone that seems to be more along the lines of unredeemed humanity, past cultural context and hierarchical structure above Spirit-led relationships. I would love to know about a kingdom view rather than a church or religious view. Thank you so much! I’m looking forward to learning more about the topic.
