How does God view me?

Mark Virkler's picture

Questions I asked the Lord: Lord, since it is Christ living through me, how am I to see myself (Gal. 2:20)? How do You see me?

God grants wonderful pictures and illumination 

Mark, see yourself radiating My divine light, for that is how I see you. You ARE shining with the radiance of My glory. It glows from every part of your body. Some would call it an aura, others call it a biofield. I call it the glory of the Lord. For those who walk in the light, this light shines brighter and brighter. You can see this in each person’s countenance. One’s countenance is the presence they carry of light or darkness. For those who live in darkness, the light becomes dimmed, damaged, and darkened.

You are the light of the world. The world dwells in darkness. You dwell in the light of My glory. You reflect the light of My glory because you tune continuously to My River of Life that flows within you. You drink from My Fountain of Living Waters. You feast on My daily manna. You yield to My will for your life. You follow My leading. You say, “Yes, Lord,” so My Spirit is not quenched within you.

Thus, you are the radiance of My glory. Behold, I have spoken. So be it. Continue to walk in My light that My light may continue to shine forth.

Thank You, Lord, I receive this vision of myself, and choose to continue to follow the lead of Your Spirit.

Thank you, Mark.

Reflections

In the Middle Ages, the light that was emitted by followers of Christ was seen/pictured as a halo around saints’ heads. Words which express this radiance around the human body include countenance, aura, biofield, and the glory of the Lord. These may be somewhat complementary and overlapping terms. Kirlian photography can be used to take pictures of the light that surrounds all living things.

Since a picture is worth one thousand words, it is important that we see ourselves the same way God sees us. Therefore, let’s journal and see what God has to say to you about His vision of you!

Personal Application Journaling Time

Hearing God's voice is as simple as quieting myself, fixing my eyes on Jesus, tuning to flow and writing.  See this link.

  • Lord, since it is Christ living through me, how am I to see myself? How do You see me?
  • What would You speak to me concerning my being the radiance of Your glory?
  • Lord, what would You speak to me from the verses below?

Meditate on these Scriptures which discuss Jesus Christ, the LIGHT of the World

  1. "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life." (Jn. 8:12)
  2. God is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. (2 Cor. 4:6)
  3. "The eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is clear, your whole body also is full of light; but when it is bad, your body also is full of darkness. "Then watch out that the light in you is not darkness. (Lk. 11:34-35).
  4. The one who says he is in the Light and yet hates his brother is in the darkness until now. (1 Jn. 2:9)
  5. "Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. (Matt. 5:16)
  6. But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, That shines brighter and brighter until the full day. (Prov. 4:18)
  7. We have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts. (2 Pet. 1:19)
  8. Open my eyes, that I may behold Wonderful things from Your law. (Ps. 119:18)
  9. The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread? (Ps. 27:1)
  10. For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light. (Ps. 36:9)

Have you ever wished you could just sit down and have a long talk with the Lord? Wouldn't it be wonderful to move beyond having a theology that states that God loves you to actually hearing Him whisper words of love into your heart? When you're worried or confused, wouldn't you love to see the situation from His perspective and hear how He wants you to respond? When things don't seem to be going your way and your prayers aren't answered the way you had hoped, wouldn't it be great to hear Him tell you where He is in the midst of it, and what He is working out in your life? Are you ever just a little bit jealous of others who say with such confidence, "The Lord said...."?

Counseled by God

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 146 Pages

Have you ever been defeated by negative emotions such as anger, fear, guilt, inferiority, condemnation or depression? Have you tried to fight them off unsuccessfully? Is there an answer that is deeper than simply trying to mentally reason yourself out of these emotions? Is there a way that Jesus can speak a word of life into the depths of your emotional despair and bring healing on a deep level? Is there a form of Christian counseling that begins and ends with the movement of Christ within your heart, rather than simply with the words of man?
