Sid: We want everyone everywhere to hear the good news, we want everyone everywhere to hear God’s voice; we want everywhere to have a stream; to have a vision. I mean twenty-four seven from the throne room. Time is growing short, God’s got a destiny and if you can hear God’s voice and you are willing you can fulfill the destiny. And my guest Mark Virkler says that everyone that takes his course can hear God’s voice. …Mark let’s review what God showed you are the four keys to hear His voice.
Mark: Alright, that sounds great Sid we can put it; we can get it down to four words; stillness, vision, spontaneity and journaling. And we can make can make it a sentence; hearing God’s voice is as simple as quieting yourself down; fixing your eyes on Jesus; tuning to spontaneity and writing. And so when a person asks how to hear God’s voice, that’s what you can tell them.
Sid: Now what about people that are sick, have you got many stories of people that have taken your course that have learned how to hear God’s voice and then found out what they had to do to receive healing?
Mark: Well, we do. We have a lot of people who received healing because these basic underline principals are principals from releasing intimacy with God and the anointing of God and the power of the Holy Spirit. And I can share a little bit of my own struggle to learn to pray for the sick successfully and than a few people’s testimonies. But for myself, you know healing was not a part of my background and when I got hungry to want to pray for healing first not too much happened. But I finally got together with two other people who were want and willing to mentor me and grow with me in the area of healing and we spent three months in focused effort in emailing back and forth two or three times a week saying “What do you do that makes healing work better for you and then trying and I’m just trying to understand what they are doing and then trying those things ourselves to see if it would make healing work better for us. And one of the guys I related to was a guy from Pennsylvania and he said, “Well what you need to do is you need to step into the light before you pray for healing.” And I said, “What do you mean, step into light? I heard you say the words but what do you mean step into the light? It took me three weeks to pull out of him what he meant by stepping into the light. But what he’s saying is God was light and if you would step into His light and see His light surrounding you before you begin to lay hands on people then His light, His power, His energy would be stronger upon you and stronger through you into the person that you are praying for. And so I began in trying that because I had learned something that we already say. We say a pictures worth a thousand words and I had learned the power of pictures over the years and I just never applied picturing or using vision as part of my healing prayer. I knew it as part of heart faith because when God spoke to Abraham the father of faith in him he did it with a picture, he said, “See the stars of the heaven, you’re going to have that many kids.” And that’s Genesis 15:5 and the next verse says “Then Abraham believed.” So belief was a direct result of seeing a picture from God and we all know that if we have heart faith we can cast them out into the sea. So I say, “God does heart faith entail?” He says, “One of the things that it entails is seeing a picture.” Hearing a Rhema Word because God spoke a Rhema Word to Abraham on chapter 12 of Genesis, “I’m making you a Father of many people.” And He also gave him a vision so He said, “Mark if you want to do a miracle you need a Rhema Word from Me and a vision from Me.” And so I understood that and so I said, “Well fine so what’s a vision look like?” If I’m laying hands on the sick and praying for them, I mean what I understand theologically is that power is leaving my hands, going into their body and driving the darkness out. The woman with the issue of blood she could feel the power of God enter her; so I said “Fine, what does power look like if I want to use a picture because pictures produce heart faith.” And every time the Bible says the imagination always with imagination of the heart and I want to use the faculty of the heart and so what does power look like? And I thought well it looks like light, so I said, “Okay God, it says in the Bible they use light in the Book of Revelation so they’ve seen the power of God; and so I say “Lord, would you anoint my hands, would you anointing me with healing power” and then I would see my hands being filled with the light, the power and the light of Almighty God; I would see His light overshadowing me. I would lay my hands upon a person and I would see that light, that power as light leave my right hand, go into their body and come back, the energy would come back through my left hand and a conduit for Devine Power; and I would see it drive out the darkness of that body. And Jesus laid hands on so two hands, that’s plural and to make an electric current work you have two wires; positive and negative so my right hand is a positive; the energy is leaving. So the word in the Greek for energy is energeous which is translated power and it means active energy. So the active energy of the Holy Spirit is leaving my right hand; going into their body; driving the darkness out and the circuits completed by the energy coming back through my left hand. And so I understood that finally and I began to practice doing that. And I demonstrated that on weekend seminars when I go out I say “Here’s how you can use vision and flow and spontaneity as you pray for healing.” And I’ll ask for somebody, I’ll ask for a simple, some healings are simple and some are hard and as long as I’m doing an experiment in front of a group and this is not my forte ministry because my forte ministry is teaching. So this is my extra ministry which is healing so I choose a simple one and so the simple one is pain, recent pain in your body is easier to heal than chronic pain. And it’s easier to heal than getting a whole new arm back you know. And so I say somebody have simple intense pain in the last week or so in your body raise your hand and want to get healed they’ll come forward. And so I’ll just teach what I just taught you, I’ll lay my hand on their body, speak to the pain and say “In the Name of Jesus and if you are listening on this radio there is no reason you can’t do this, just lay your hands on your body; see them as the hands of Jesus; see the power of God flowing through your hands and say speak to your body and speak to that pain and say “In the Name of Jesus I speak to this pain and I command it to leave this body right now in the Name of Jesus. Pain leave this body right now in the Name of Jesus and I ask for the light and power and healing of Almighty God to flow into this body. And I speak for all darkness to be driven out of my body in Jesus Name right now and for the light and power of Almighty God to fill me from the top of my head to the tips of my toes and just look to see that happen. Look and watch that happen and feel the power of God just flow into you and through you; and as you do that and as I do that basically most times a person is either healed of that pain or greatly healed if not completely largely healed. If you are largely healed the first time and this prayer works one time and you pray the second time and it will take you further the second time. And pray the third time it should finish it up so…
Sid: Now Mark I believe because I feel the Holy Spirit just bubbling throughout my body right now that people are being healed. I also believe that people that have back problems if you will bend over right now in Jesus name and you’ll see that the pain is gone. And there’s someone with a hip problem, if you will walk. You see faith without a corresponding action is dead; you don’t want your faith to be dead. So if you are driving, I understand you can’t do that so pull over to the side of the road and bend over, but why not be a doer of God’s word rather than a hearer only. I believe that not just pain Mark, but there is such a flow of the Spirit of God right now that people can be healed of any even life threatening diseases like heart trouble, I believe that you can receive your new heart right now. I believe that people with cancer that the cancer is gone in Jesus name. Mark tell me one person that comes to mind that was physically healed briefly.
Mark: Alright let me share a story here from a lady. She was from Australia, her daughter was in Australia, in a YWAM base and she was having a terrible time with her skin, rashes kept just pumping up. And so this lady said that when she prayed for her she practiced just doing this; she pictured Jesus engulfing her in light with healing anointing power and her mother let that power flow through her to her daughter. And she felt that anointing just release from her into her daughter and she prayed this from a distance because she wasn’t with her daughter. And the next morning she gets an email from her daughter saying “By the way God completely healed all of my rashes, all of them in capital…
Sid: Because time is slipping away Mark would you prophesy over the listeners right now.
Mark: Father we just thank you that you are the same yesterday, today and forever. Father we thank You that Your Word never change so Jesus is our example. And I just speak to your right now in the Name of Jesus you can live as Jesus lived out of Devine initiative only doing what you see the Father doing and what you hear the Father speaking. And the Lord is saying, “Let faith arise in your heart right now and say this is for me, this is for me.” Say, “I can do this, say I can do this in Jesus Name I can do this and anything within me that is a barrier will leave in Jesus Name; anything that blocks this will leave. Bad theology will leave, ungodly beliefs will leave but I will be like Jesus, I will see vision all the time and I will hear God’s voice all the time and I will not rest until this is established as a foundational part of my lifestyle. And so Father, I release the anointing that God has given to me to you in Jesus Name, the anointing that I have to hear and to see I release it to you in Jesus Name and I speak an ease over you that with ease you will be able to hear God’s voice as spontaneous thoughts, you’ll be able to see God’s vision as spontaneous vision and a whole new lifestyle will erupt in you as you live out of the river of God in Jesus Name, Amen.
Sid: Mark, there is such a flow and that is the word a flow of the Spirit of the Living God is a literal river, take advantage of this whatever you need…
