God Redirects and Brings About Good
God directed Abraham to go up to a mountaintop and sacrifice his son on an altar. When the time came for the sacrifice, God redirected Abraham and said, no, don’t sacrifice Isaac (Gen. 22:1-19).

Pastor Arno Heinrichs has taken seven courses toward his doctorate at Christian Leadership University. He has translated more than a dozen of our books into Portuguese, including the 4 Keys LEARN seminar guide along with the full 4 Keys book. He is now hosting seminars in Brazil on the 4 keys to hearing God's voice. I am thrilled to pass the torch of raising up the message of communion with God to Pastor Arno to carry across Brazil!
Jesus said many difficult words. He told us to do several things that are the direct opposite of what we want to do, for example:
The journaling below is from Ian Wilkinson, one of our Christian Leadership University students. It is a word of encouragement and guidance for these times of great change.
God’s plan: That I see Jesus at my side always. Tuning to Spirit flow turns this godly imagination into a living encounter with Jesus.
Godly imagination transforms into a vision when I pray for the eyes of my heart to be enlightened, tune to flow, and the Spirit brings the scene alive. These visions bring joy, peace, and hope.
My daughter, Charity Kayembe, has written an amazing article on this topic of what it means that we are witnesses of Jesus Christ. She has graciously allowed me to reprint it below. Thank you, Charity!
Please read: The Great Commission, Part 1 – Am I “beholding Jesus with me at all times”? (Available here). What does it mean when Jesus says in the Great Commission: "Behold I am with you always." Does "behold" involve seeing Him present with me as I walk down the road of life? What is the definition of the Greek word (Strong's G2400) which is translated "Lo" or "Behold"?
The Great Commission: "All authority is given to Me in Heaven and on earth. Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold (Greek: G2400), I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen." (Matt. 28:18-20 Modern KJV)
LaWanda – O Jesus, precious Lord and Savior, what gratitude I am experiencing this morning. So very grateful to be in your presence, Lord. So grateful, Lord, that because of the Cross we can come boldly to your throne of Grace. Thank you, Lord, that you have snuggled me into your secret place. O Lord, that you have drawn me here, that it is your desire to fellowship with me blows me away, Lord. O Jesus, I bow before you now. I love you , Lord. Hide me you hour Holiness, Lord Jesus. There is none like you, Lord. None like you.

Why are there four Gospels describing Jesus' life? How are the three synoptic Gospels different from John? What does God want to say to me through the life of Jesus? Can I really imitate Christ and be like him? Yes, Jesus came to model the lifestyle God has empowered us to live!

Dr. Andrew Hardy takes you through Acts and the General Epistles in 10 sessions. This is part seven of our Through the Bible series, which provides you an in-depth overview of the entire Bible. You may choose to begin with the Life of Christ, and work your way through the entire New Testament, and then follow this up by going through the Old Testament.
In the book of Acts you discover the vibrancy of the early Church. The Holy Spirit descended upon them in Pentecost and filled them and the room in which they were seated. Empowered by the Holy Ghost, they immediatey won 3000 to the Lord. Miracles followed, many were healed, and the world was transformed by these anointed disciples.
In the General Epistles we learn of the struggles the early Church faced, and the amazing teaching the Apostle Paul provided to keep them on track. You receive a glimpse into the heart of Paul as he passionately encourages his readers to know who they are in Christ and ascend into the heavenlies, where they are seated with Him in heavenly places, ruling and reigning. These books take you into the depths of Scriptural truth as revealed by the Holy Spirit. Pray for God to give you revelation knowledge in your heart and mind as you meditate on His Word (Eph. 1:17,18).

Can I succeed like others have? What do I need to do? How do I go about it? What if I don't have the gifts necessary to do something great? The wonderful truth revealed in Scripture is that God uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary feats, especially when they say, "Yes, Lord" to the destiny He has prepared for them!
Mark Virkler | 16 DVD Sessions
Can you imagine starting new believers off with the Holy Spirit! What if the first thing you were taught as a newborn Christian was how to connect easily and daily with the Holy Spirit Who was living inside you, anointing you, empowering you and transforming you?
This CD set of the 10-hour course will draw you into a classroom experience with others who are learning to hear from God right alongside you. It follows along with the LEARN 4 Keys to Hearing God's Voice notebook (available for $4.95). Because Dr. Virkler is teaching directly from this booklet, it is recommended that you purchase both the LEARN notebook and the complete book entitled 4 Keys to Hearing God’s Voice. You will want to meditate on the teaching and do the exercises found in the large book if you intend to fully internalize the skill of living daily out of God’s voice.
A complete description is available by clicking here, where you will find information on the 60-minute version of this product. The main difference is that these 10 sessions are shorter, averaging 40 minutes each. You asked for it and it's finally available! The same core teaching now abridged, making the sessions easier to fit into your Sunday School class, home group meeting or lunch hour Bible study.
