Supernatural Boot Camp for Kids

My Supernatural Boot Camp for Kids is doing great. The kids are loving it! They journaled today using the 4 Keys. It was life-changing for me to be able to truly give concrete directions on how to hear the voice of God.

L saw Jesus building sandcastles in the sand, and He asked her to join Him. He told her she was His princess.

J “I heard God tell me to move the skate board to the garage. I did. Daddy was backing up in the truck and he went off the curb. He would have ran over my board had I not obeyed God.” J was thrilled.

J and Jesus played hide and go seek in the forest. They hid behind the trees and ran through the forest.

Z slid down rainbows with Jesus. Jesus was laughing and didn’t want to stop playing.

L followed the steps of healing prayer and prayed for her sister’s foot. The pain immediately left.

Z and J prayed for a lady and the pain in her wrist went away.

My kids are so enjoying getting to know Pappa!
 


Response from a grateful mother

My daughter has had the privilege of being in Kathy's bible boot camp over the past several weeks. To say that she has enjoyed it would be an understatement. She has learned journaling with God, having visions, soaking in His presence, how to hear God's voice and practice using her prayer language.

Her favorite thing was learning how easy it is to pray for people. She usually defaults to her prayer language, but with Kathy's encouragement and teaching she is learning how to hear God's voice and speak that over people also. She has been a sponge soaking in all that was being taught.

As a mom it has been so helpful to be able to use what she has learned in every day life. Just the other day, she was anxious and expressing fear about going back to school. When asked, she was able to quiet herself down and look to see where Jesus was in this situation. As she quickly located Him, peace replaced fear as she sees Him with her at school.

I am eternally grateful for this study and for Kathy's obedience to God in teaching our kids. A beautiful foundation and intimate relationship has begun for our children and I am so excited to see all the fruit God will bring from it!

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.
