Look UP and Be Filled with Joy and Hope by Eric McCracken

Mark Virkler's picture

God speaking in Eric's journaling: Ask My people to look up! Exhort them to engage the eyes of their spirits and see what I AM doing!


Ask them to incline their ears that they would Hear My Voice and believe! That they would Hear My Voice and KNOW Me! Yes! Truly I long and desire to converse with My children, let the one with an ear hear Me, and then the one who hears may respond to Me. Oh how I long for this in My Church! I AM alive! I AM still speaking! I AM still giving vision, if you will only have the faith to receive and hear! Look up, oh Church and see! For I AM doing a new thing! Look up, oh Church and see! For I AM among you and guiding you. Incline your ears, oh people and Hear Me! For I AM crying out that you might only listen and know Me with a deep knowing! Incline your ears to hear! You call on Me, oh Church and ask for My glory, but will you look to see it? You call on Me, oh Church and ask for answers, but will you hear them? Arise My people and wake from your slumber! The time has come that you incline your ears to Hear My Voice and open your eyes to receive My vision. Here I AM! I stand before you with good gifts if you will only receive them! Look up! Look up! Today, I AM calling My Church, Look Up! 

Mark Virkler's reflection on God's instruction

If you look at the horrendous evil taking place worldwide around us, you will be filled with fear and terror that society may collapse.

If we simply review the Bible for atrocities, we will find plenty.

  • The world was destroyed in a flood because man's imaginations were continually evil (Gen. 6:11-13).
  • A homosexual mob demanded a visiting male be turned over to them, and instead a father sent his daughter out to be raped all night and she was found dead at his doorstep in the morning (Gen. 19:22-30).
  • The Israelites were enslaved into a lifetime of labor in Egypt, and Christians were set afire as tourches and slain by lions by the evil Roman government.

I am instructed NOT to gaze upon evil as it destroys my spirit, soul and body. Instead, I am to fix my eyes on Jesus (Heb. 12:1,2). Only then will I find peace and hope. Today we are all challenged to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and hear from Him, the Wonderful Counselor, as to what He is doing and what He would have us do to release His light into the world in which we live.

Journaling application

Lord, I love You. I am so thankful that You rule, and that You have seated me beside You in heavenly places to rule and reign with You (Eph. 2:6; Col. 3:1-3). What would You speak to me today?

Fulfill Your Financial Destiny CDs

Fulfill Your Financial Destiny Audio CDs

by Mark Virkler | 22 Sessions

Newly recorded for 2023! Though the economic system (mammon) of this world is under a curse, we have received instructions for how to move out from that dominion and into the blessing of the Kingdom of God. God’s promises to His children have not changed with the whims of government or Wall Street, nor have His directions for how to walk in those promises. We can “choose not to participate” in the economic recession that is around us if we instead choose to obey the logos and rhema of the Lord and enjoy the blessings that result.

How Do YOU Know? CDs

by Mark Virkler | 12 Sessions on 4 CDs

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 eleven different methods for discovering truth including: 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. I have discarded them all and adopted a twelfth method, which is in harmony with what the Bible teaches. We teach you this method in this series. 

This is a 12-session audio series on 4 CDs.

How to Walk by the Spirit Audio CDs

How to Walk by the Spirit Audio CDs

by Mark Virkler | 6 Discs

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.
