The 4 Keys: Am I Doing It Wrong?

Mark Virkler's picture

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. 


Mark’s response  

I always encourage people to see themselves as a child, since Jesus said we need to become as a child to enter the kingdom.

Now, when the flow begins, then split your attention. Part of your attention remains on the flowing picture and part on your writing (or you can speak into your smartphone which can do the recording/typing for you).

Megan – Thank you so much. I tried it today and It was successful.

Mark – Awesome! You are taking the right steps. Picturing, tuning to flow, letting the scene come alive, and having your living encounter with God. Isn’t Christianity wonderful? That this would be available to everyone, every day, is truly beyond our wildest dreams. So pass the 4 Keys on so others can enjoy what you are enjoying too!

Two-way Journaling Application

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).

  • Lord, what would You speak to me concerning the way I am applying the 4 Keys to hearing Your voice: Stillness, vision, flow, journaling?
