I Am Not Done With You Yet - Journaling Prayer by LaWanda

Mark Virkler's picture

LaWanda – ♪♪ O Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder, consider all the worlds Thy hands have made.  I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder and there proclaim, my God how great Thou art.” ♪♪  O Jesus, “awesome wonder” is a great way to describe my state of mind when I think about you, Lord.  As I hear your words spoken over me in love, Lord, I am UNDONE.  As I see me - as You see me, Lord - I am UNDONE.  O Lord, Jesus, come and walk with me as you walked with Adam in the garden.  Spare nothing, Lord, as you make me wholly yours.

O Lord, I see you today teaching a small group.  I am at your feet, Lord, for I do not want to miss a thing.  I am determined to hear every word but as I lay my head on your thigh, all of that goes out the window and the joy of touching my Savior fills me up.  In that moment, nothing else matters, Lord.  In that moment, I need nothing else, save to be by my Lord.  O Jesus, thank you, Lord that you allow me to be here and even more that you want me here.  Thank you, Lord, that it was your desire in the beginning to share this intimacy with us.  O Jesus,  ♪♪ I love you Lord, and I lift my voice to worship you, O my soul rejoice.  Take joy my King, in what you hear.  May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear. ♪♪  This is my prayer today as my heart overflows with your love for me.

Jesus –  LaWanda, dear one, my precious, beloved one.  You are always welcome at my feet.  For I know that you have come, laying your heart down before me.  You are giving Me the exact offering that I desire – your heart.  For your heart is your most treasured possession.  It contains all the things you want to give me, as well as all the things you want to hide from me.  And when you offer it to me, you are giving me permission to work on those hidden things.  We already know it all, but you still try to hide them. We will bring them forth for healing in our own time, until the day that there is nothing hidden.

O precious one, what is hidden cannot be healed.  It must come to My Light to be transformed.  Until you bring it to me, it is yours and yours alone, along with the burden and weariness that comes from carrying it.  But you have given it to Me now.  Watch what I will do with this treasure so gingerly offered to Me.  My love surrounds it now and the fire of refining begins to burn the dross away until all that is left is the love that you are.  This is the love that I have poured into you since before you were you.  O my dear one, I saw you then in eternity past and have loved you continually and constantly until now.  There has never been one moment in time when I did not love you, dear one.  And what I have begun in you, LaWanda, I surely will finish.  I am not done with you yet.  The best, My best for you, is truly yet to come.

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

I recently found a verse of Scripture that perfectly describes this two-way conversation with God.  Like happens so often, it is a verse that I had read many times but…this time…it was different.  I felt like Jesus was saying to me, “This verse describes what happens in Journaling Prayer.  Share it.”  The verse was Ephesians 3:18-19 in the Passion Translation.  If you already do two-way journaling, you will immediately see the truth of what He said.  It truly is the essence of hearing the voice of God in this way.  If you do not yet do two-way journaling, I hope that it will inspire you to try it and experience for yourself...”The great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions,” and an intimacy with Jesus greater than anything you can imagine.

Ephesians 3:18-19, TPT

Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences – the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions.  How deeply intimate and far-reaching is His love!  How enduring and inclusive it is!  Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding – this extravagant love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God!”

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.
