Come to Me - Journaling Prayer by LaWanda

LaWanda – Jesus, my precious Lord and Savior, I am undone in your presence.  ♪♪ “All my words fall short.  I’ve got nothing new.  How could I express all my gratitude?  O Lord, I know it’s not much but I’ve nothing else fit for a King,” ♪♪ so I will just say Hallelujah, Lord.  Hallelujah!  Hallelujah! My precious, precious Lord.

I see you today as Christ of the Andes, on the mountain top with your arms outstretched wide as you survey the world below.  This is a beautiful picture, Lord, but it seems kind of sterile.  There is no one with you, Lord.  And then the statue seems to come to life and you shout, “Come! Come! Come!  All ye who labor and are heavy laden, come to Me and I will give you rest.”  Now the mountain seems to come alive too, Lord, as people hear your voice and scramble to get to you.  We are all weary, Lord.  We have been carrying our burdens for way too long and they are heavy.

Jesus – LaWanda, my dear one, YES, come, come and come again but you do not have to wait until I seem to come alive in your eyes.  I don’t come alive.  I AM ALIVE!  I AM LIFE!  And you never have to scramble to get to me.  The moment you turn your eyes toward Me, I am there.  And as a believer, it is even better, for I am within you. So listen to Me now, dear one, all you have to do is turn from whatever it is that has captured your attention and look at Me.  By turning to Me, you are saying, “I need you, Jesus.  I want you, Jesus.  What I’ve been doing is not working.  I can’t do this on my own, Lord.  Will you help me?”  All of that in one glance.  Nothing more is needed, dear one, because I know you so well.  Once a day or a thousand times, I am here waiting for you to come home to Me again.  And remember, dear one, with Me every “again” is…A…GAIN!

***************

”Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.”  Matthew 11:28-29  KJV

Healthier Today Than Yesterday eBook

I am healthier at age 60 than I was at age 40! That excites me. I want to share with you what I have learned in the last 18 years since I wrote the book Go Natural.

The truths I learned then improved my health and many others have written to tell me that it improved the quality of their health, as well.

Hearing God Through Biblical Meditation ebook

Unlocking fresh revelation daily - by Mark and Patti Virkler | 179 Pages

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.

How Do You Know? eBook

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 180 Pages

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. I used various methods for discovering truth such as: if my parents said so, then it was so. If my teacher said it was so, then it was so. If my pastor said it was so, then it was so. 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.
