(Photo of Kathryn and son Joshua, the day after he returned from Iraq.)
Gods voice protects soldier from death while in Iraq
Joshua, our son, who is currently serving in Afghanistan, was in Fallujah, Iraq in 2003. He had gone on a convoy to Baghdad and called me during his break before returning to Fallujah. Joshua was saying his good-byes and getting ready to hang up when God spoke to me saying, Pray! Pray for him! I yelled into the phone, No, Joshua! I have to pray for you now! Dont hang up! Joshua said, Okay, Mom, but hurry I have to go. I silently asked God to give me the words to pray. I remember praying for his safety and for God to place his protecting and warrior angels around Joshua and the other men/women with him. We said our goodbyes and hung up.

We were very fortunate because we could talk on instant messager (IM) daily. Fallujah was less than an hours drive from Baghdad. So approximately an hour later, I went into the computer and there on the AP (Associate Press) were pictures of an U.S. convoy that had been hit with an IED and attacked. The pictures showed soldiers lying on the ground with injuries while other soldiers were standing guard. As a mother, my heart sank. Immediately, I sent an IM to Joshua to make sure he was okay. Even though there was no answer from him for hours, God gave me a deep inner peace that everything was okay.

Later, that evening Joshua sent word to me saying that everything was okay. However, I noticed something different in his conversation. Finally, a few days later during our conversation he asked if dad was there and wanted to talk to him. Joshua informed him that an IED went off 10 feet in front of him on the day that I insisted praying with him on the phone. Because he had spent just a couple more moments with me in prayer, he was 10 feet away from the explosion instead of right in the middle of it! The only injuries he had was a little hearing loss and ringing and affected sight in his eye. Other than that, he was okay. He talked of the adrenaline rush and how it was affecting him. (This is normally termed Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.)

I began praising God, because for me on that day, I learned again the power of prayer! Because of God and my obedience to Gods direction, Joshuas life was saved that day! Nothing can ever express the gratitude and awe I have for God, His Love and Protection in that experience. When we obey Gods direction and listen to His voice, amazing miracles happen, and satan is defeated. Hallelujah!!! Amen!

We continue to pray for Joshua now as he sees combat nearly everyday while they work 12-18 hour days.

Mark, thank you for your obedience to God and your desire to hear His voice! Your obedience has touched so many lives and made a real difference in my life as well as those in my generations to come. I am now teaching my little 3 year old girl how to listen to God.

Julie Stevens Spreads the Good News of Intimacy with Jesus
I am using the DVD series on How to Hear Gods Voice with our Ladies Bible study on Wednesday nights. I just had to let you know how amazing this has been for us all. We are on week 4 and the women are actually journaling and reporting back to the group. Their faces are aglow with excitement and an experience of being loved and understood by the Lord.

I am so delighted. My personal passion is to see individuals experience a more intimate relationship with the Lord and with each other and this has made such a difference. I began to journal about 9 years ago but generally I often just felt like I was making it up,
yet my theology told me that the Lord would want this kind of intimate interaction with me.

I now feel like I have the tools, support (in my sisters) and theology to support continuing with this in faith. I can't thank you enough for all your study and work to reproduce this for us. I am a professional counselor and also my husband is the assistant pastor of our church and so I have opportunities to take this message to others. I am teaching some of this at a retreat in two weeks.


Pastor Alexander in India: Your book Dialogue with God revolutionized my life. After reading your book, my ministry and life changed upside down. Now I am hearing God's voice very easily. Not only that, I am teaching this truth in all the churches and even in Bible colleges. Thank God for your ministry and the book.




Anyone who searches for Me will find Me
My name is Judy. I happened upon your book How to Hear God's Voice in a Books A Million bookstore over the weekend. I have not been able to put it down.

I am a Christian. I have taught Bible Study for our Sunday School in a Baptist Church for many years, actually taught Bible Study over our airways for the church, and a couple of years ago was able to visit the Holy Land where I taught the Bible lessons at the different Holy sites. I have also had training through ORU and so I'm probably what you might call a Bapticostal!

I am taking a sabbatical because I wanted some alone time with the LORD. Upon saying all this...the LORD has definitely brought me to you. Many of the questions you brought up in your book I have felt for years! I have not been able to put the book down. I am artistic and thought I was right-brained...but found out I was really right down the middle.

Here is my journal entry today, October 11, 2007.

 

Hello Lord. I love You and give You this day. What would You like to say to me today?

I am glad you chose to join ME. I love you and always hold you dear. Rest in ME. I have many plans for you and will show you great and wondrous things as you walk with ME and talk with ME. My power is already within you. Draw upon it.

I want to tell you something. Do you see this sea? (I had pictured myself with Jesus at the Sea of Galilee since I have been there.) Right now it is quiet and serene. But a storm can come at any moment and disturb that peace. Fix your eyes on ME, Judy. Be still and know that I am God. My peace is much bigger than that storm. Search and claim it. Come wade with ME in the sea. Feel the cool refreshing waters stirring around your feet. I am the refreshing waters within you. If you are thirsty, drink of ME. Now bend down. What do you see?

I see Your reflection, LORD.

Yes, you see MY reflection because you are looking for it. Anyone who searches for ME will find ME. Anyone who is thirsty for ME will drink of ME. Anyone who searches for peace out of the storm will find it in ME

LORD, there are so many things I want to do for you and feel at my age it just may not happen. (56 years old)

I know all about your wants and desires, Judy. What is age? What is time?

What do you mean, LORD?

Look back at the sea, Judy. Does the age of the sea stop it from flowing? Does time make it stand still? No. Only I can do that. Your steps are ordered by ME. Desire ME and wait upon ME. I know the desires of your heart. I love you.

  




As though your life depends on it
The following journaling is from Pastor Terry, who is going through our Personal Spiritual Trainer program.

  You are on your journey, but you still have unsettled issues. Yes, you have been forgiven, but you still have not settled the internal struggles that have been part of your life since childhood. And rather than come to Me, you try to figure them out. Can we talk about them? I can heal them, you know. I can bring you peace in this area or these areas of your life. I know the solution, even when you dont.

Why do you want to cover them, anyway? Have I not proven My love and mercy for you? For you are special to Me, and I have a great work for you, but it will require you going into the dark places of your soul, and embracing the night seasons, and allowing Me to work in them. Repairing and healing. Sorting out what is not of Me and what is, that I may purge you of the faulty, and counterfeit, and replace it with the genuine and real.

It will take time, and your patience is requiredI wont force it, but it wont happen when you try to figure it out, and try to reason it into completion. Can you trust Me to do what you have prayed? I tell you I am not through yetLet Me settle the things within you that have been a torment for yearsthose gnawing voices, those deep questions that keep you unsettled, unsure and at unrest.

I know that inner battle for I went through them. I felt every pain, and every struggle that you are going through. And without condemnation, I can take you through where I have been. Lean on Me. Trust MeAllow Me to do what only I can dodont worry about the results, or what you will be like, or whether others will notice the changeI will do the work, and the transformation, and it will be what I desirenot othersI love you, and need you to value our time together as though your life depends on it, because truly it does

I implore you, let Me do it. I can change youand give you what you have cried for and wept for, and desiredand even beyond thatlet Me be Meand I will make you what I want you to be, and you will see Me in youfull of mercy and grace, and you wont be fooled or deceived, and the questions will be rooted in Me, and not theology, or ideology or natural understanding, but in Me, in truth.

And you will possess a confidence that is unheard of in those you know. And from that will spring wells of anointing, pools of blessing, and hands that touch and impact deeply the lives of othersTrust Me, I can do it. I really candont let your fears control you. My love is sufficient for you to know and understand that I can take you to that place you have desired, for that desire in you is My desire, and you wont be like others, or follow those same patterns, but you will be unique, different, and contented in Me.

Follow Me and only Me. Take what I have given you and process it through Me and see if I dont take it to a level you have only begun to experienceand you will surpass the wisdom of men and the knowledge of books and the abilities of natural and inborn strengths, but you will possess Me, the Holy, anointed One. Full of mercy and graceFull of power and ability, and creative words, and the ability to do ALL I have said in the past.

Trust Meyour desires will begin to change, old patterns will fall off, and I will restore what our enemy has stolen from you, even to the very core of your being, yes even your childhood, and ability to be a child and have fun and enjoy life, and peace and contentment. Follow Me, follow MeIm going somewhere, and I want you to be with MeFollow Me.

  




Laughter Is Healing to the Bones
In a small Southern town there was a nativity scene that showed great skill and talent had gone into creating it. One small feature bothered me. The three wise men were wearing firemens helmets. Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left.

At a Quik Stop on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter about the helmets. She offered a simple explanation: Haven't you ever read in the Good Book where it says The three wise men came from afar?
