Mark Virkler's blog

The following question was emailed to me: A spiritual friend said to me, “God is a jealous God. Jesus is not actually 'God.' There is only one God.” This counsel has hindered my journaling. So my question is, “Does the Father approve of me calling Jesus My God?"  

In April of 2021 I was diagnosed with stage 3 adenocarcinoma pancreatic cancer. After an exhausting two-week period, the consensus was: They could not surgically remove the cancer due to how it had wrapped around the arteries. It was recommended that I have an aggressive chemotherapy regimen. I was told that it was the strongest chemo that any man could receive and that it was only being given to me to prolong my life. All three hospitals that evaluated me agreed that there were no other options that they could offer me.

Jesus speaks: "My WORD is eternal – waiting for you to discover it.  Each verse you find…in that special moment comes ALIVE for you.  It feeds you and it comforts you.  It guides you." 

“TENT TIME” is a FREE curriculum for children based on Mark Virkler’s  “4 Keys to Hearing God’s Voice”. The 4 Keys are combined with the TENT TIME concept of encouraging children to experience hearing God’s voice by doing what Moses did in the “Tent of Meeting”. It captures their imagination, engages their hearts, and the end result is that children experience hearing from God during class and at home.

With thousands of churches holding thousands of different theological beliefs, what is the chance that my theology is correct, perfect, and completely true? I’m going to assume there’s very little chance that my theology is totally correct and completely perfect.

I define inner healing as "allowing God to replace the pictures in the art gallery of our minds, removing pictures that do not have Jesus in them, and replacing them with pictures that do." Below, LaWanda shares two inner healing encounters which set her free and gave her life!

This is both a continuation of God’s glory breaking out and a fresh outpouring. It is exciting. It is an answer to prayer! It is not the first time Asbury has experienced revival. They had a great outpouring in 1970. I visited Asbury Theological Seminary when I was looking for a graduate school to attend.

Probably our favorite text assigned while Patti and I attended Roberts Wesleyan College was the book, A Harmony of the Gospels by Stevens and Burton. In this same class, we were also assigned The Life and Teaching of Jesus Christ by James S. Stewart. You can read the first two chapters free here.

Jesus speaks: “This is the importance of confessing My Word… In the moment that you are speaking it, you are claiming it as YOUR truth -  right now, in this present situation. But also know that EVERY time that you proclaim My Word, you are prophesying over your future as well.”

Who rules? God? Congress? The World Economic Forum? Evil bureaucrats? Jesus was at peace in the midst of the evil Roman Empire. Why? Because His eyes were fixed on His Heavenly Father, and He did only what He saw and heard His Father doing (Jn. 5:19,20,30).
