During the week, you'll experience solid biblical and revelatory teaching.

You will receive fresh revelation

of God's heart and redemptive plan you may not have known before. Come and discover the incredible
freedom from earthly limitations available for true sons and daughters.

Help you move into deeper revelations of the father’s love. You will begin to experience a moving from
biblical understanding to a revelation in your heart as the Father’s love, forgiveness, and grace explore
inside your inner being. Should help with any feeling that you have to work harder to be loved and
accepted. To make self available to the Father’s heart you must let down your own personal walls and
barriers.

Many people have an unconscious pain tank that holds various layers of hidden core pain. As you
experience God’s love different layers of pain will be tapped into and each gallon of pain hurts as much as
another when it surfaces. Must voluntarily deal with core pain especially if this pain is buried. Issues like
anger, fear, insecurity, shame, guilt, self-condemnation, etc. We must acknowledge our hidden core pain
and address our issues of shame, fear, and control

About hearing God’s voice and the father heart of God. I was stirred recently by the Holy Spirit and he led
me to this passage: "Ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy
Ghost, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life"
(Jude 20–21). As I read these verses, I heard the Spirit whisper to me: "David, you've never yet come into
the fullness and joy of my love. You have the theology right—but you haven't yet experienced the ecstasy
and rest of keeping yourself in my love. The Bible is filled with the truth of God's love. But at times I allow
myself to wonder how the Lord could ever love me. It's not that I doubt his love; it's more a failure on my
part to keep myself in the knowledge and assurance of his love to me.

The revelation of God's love comes in part when we are born again. If you were to ask most Christians
what they know of God's love for them, they'd answer, "I know God loves me because he gave his Son to
die for me." They would quote John 3:16: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." It's a wonderful moment when
you grasp this truth. You suddenly realize, "God loved me when I was lost, undone, a stranger. And he
proved his love for me by sacrificing his own Son on my behalf."

Few Christians, however, learn how to be kept in God's love. We know something of our love toward the
Lord—but we seldom seek the revelation of God's love for us. In fact, if you were to ask most Christians to
find biblical passages on God's love for us, they could point to only a few. Yet, understanding the love of
God is the secret to an overcoming life. Multitudes grow spiritually cold and lazy because they're ignorant
of the Lord's love for them. They don't know that their greatest weapon against Satan's attacks is to be fully
convinced of God's love for them, through the revelation of the Holy Ghost.

In his final prayer on earth, Jesus said, "Father…thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world" (John
17:24). What an incredible thought; Christ was greatly loved by the Father before creation. Then Jesus
prayed this remarkable prayer. "Thou, Father…hast loved them, as thou hast loved me" (v. 21, 23). He also
prayed, "That the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them" (v. 26). Christ was
saying, "Father, I know you're going to love those I bring into my body, just the way you've loved me."The
implication here is that when the Father loved Jesus before eternity, he loved us too. Indeed, when man was
still only a thought in God's eternal mind, the Lord was already numbering our parts and planning our
redemption: "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be
holy and without blame before him in love" (Ephesians 1:4). How long has God loved you? He's loved you
since he has existed—because God is love. It is his very nature. He loved you as a sinner. He loved you in
the womb. He loved you before the world began. There was no beginning to his love for you—and there is
no end to it. When will God stop loving you? He'll stop loving you when he stops loving his own Son—
which is impossible. Christ says, "The Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved
them unto the end" (John 13:1).
Journal His Heart.

Transcribe the words into first person, thereby turning your words into a declaration. Take your
declaration and speak it back over your own heart, your spirit…Speak it back over your life and family.
Speak in agreement with Him according to (1 John 5:14-15, Job 22:28, Deut 29:29, and feed the seed of
your heart according to the principle of Genesis 1:28 and you will see it multiply). Consider each Word or
revelation like a like a medicine meant to preserve and transform your life. The things He gives you are
meant to cause you to grow, persevere, and walk in freedom. They cause you to be fruitful and multiply.
Like talents, they should not be buried, but multiplied through the agreement of the spoken word.

The more you speak the more you will believe and become obedient to His call on your life. The words and
revelations He gives you are for rooting out, pulling down…they are to destroy and overthrow the plans of
the enemy and finally to build and plant according to (Jeremiah 1:9-1). The Lord has promised that His
grace is sufficient for all of our needs (2 Cor. 12:9). He wants to pour into us the resources that we need for
each day. As we spend time in His presence He pours in His strength, peace, patience, endurance, comfort
and joy. We learn to soak up everything we need from Him.

Key #4 – Journaling, the writing out of your prayers and God’s answers, brings great freedom in
hearing God’s voice.

God told Habakkuk to record the vision (Hab. 2:2). This was not an isolated command. The Scriptures
record many examples of individual’s prayers and God’s replies (e.g. the Psalms, many of the prophets,
Revelation).

I call the process "two-way journaling," and I have found it to be a fabulous catalyst for clearly discerning
God's inner, spontaneous flow, because as I journal I am able to write in faith for long periods of time,
simply believing it is God. I know that what I believe I have received from God must be tested. However,
testing involves doubt and doubt blocks divine communication, so I do not want to test while I am trying to
receive. With journaling, I can receive in faith, knowing that when the flow has ended I can test and
examine it carefully, making sure that it lines up with Scripture.

You will be amazed when you journal. Doubt may hinder you at first, but throw it off, reminding yourself
that it is a biblical concept, and that God is present, speaking to His children. Relax. When we cease our
labors and enter His rest, God is free to flow (Heb. 4:10 ). Sit back comfortably, take out your pen and
paper, smile, and turn your attention toward the Lord in praise and worship, seeking His face. After you
write your question to Him, become still, fixing your gaze on Jesus You will suddenly have a very good
thought. Don't doubt it; simply write it down. Later, as you read your journaling, you, too, will be blessed
to discover that you are indeed dialoguing with God. Some final notes: Knowing God through the Bible is a
vital foundation to hearing His voice in your heart, so you must have a solid commitment to knowing and
obeying the Scriptures. It is also very important for your growth and safety that you be related to solid,
spiritual counselors All major directional moves that come through journaling should be confirmed by your
counselors before you act upon them.

Journaling His Heart

Journaling His heart is a place of intimate communion where He shares His thoughts, feelings, impressions
and words. Yes He longs to share words with us, words of encouragement, instruction and even correction.
Sometimes we expect some mysterious voice, but for the most part Holy Spirit speaks to us in our own
voice. Many times the thoughts of God, especially when positive, are dismissed as simply our own
imaginings, while the lies of the enemy of our soul are accepted as fact. Despite any negative aspects of our
past with all its hurts and wounds we must determine to separate the goodness and mercy of our heavenly
Father’s character from all we have experienced at the hands of others. Journaling God’s heart to us will
free us from the chains of the past. In His word He tells the truth sets us free. When we journal His heart,
His words of love and affirmation will set us free. We must choose this day not only who we will serve but
who we will believe.

Journaling Basics No Need To Be An Expert

There is no need to be an expert writer, no need to know proper grammar, and no need to feel inadequate in
any way. Don’t pause to fix punctuation or grammar mistakes. This is a time for free writing. Let your
thoughts stream from your heart, from His heart. God is waiting to hear and speak. He longs to fill the
blank pages held within the tablet of your heart. You can respond back and forth to the things He says to
you or wait and end with a prayer of confession, proclamation and declaration, agreeing with what He has
said about your life. Maybe He will speak to you in a poem. There is no right or wrong way. Trust Him

Give It A Try

First write a few sentences of gratitude, expressing your love to the Lord. This opens the door, breaks down
barriers, freeing you to express yourself. Let the thoughts and emotions come to the surface. Don’t try and
push anything down into a place of denial. Express your fears, your failures and your successes to Him. He
has answers and encouragement for everything. If you have any negative beliefs about yourself, write them
down and ask Holy Spirit what Father is saying. If you have trouble hearing an answer, I encourage you to
look up some scripture relating to what you feel or think. Find out what God says on the matter, agree with
Him and then write it down by personalizing it using your name and directing the scripture at YOU.

Example:

You might suffer from low self-esteem or fear and this would be a good start. Your name,
______________ you are My beloved and the apple of My eye. I have not given you a spirit of fear but
love power and a sound mind. Continue on with what ever thought from Holy Spirit you hear, such as: I am
here to change the way you think about yourself and set you free from all the words others have said to
you. Give Me every negative word or judgment spoken to you by others. Let me replace them today with
My words, My words of love and grace.

Journal Using Worship, Meditative Prayer or Soaking Prayer

I have found that a time of quiet worship and meditative prayer opens my heart up to hear the still, small
voice of God as He speaks to me in gentle whispers. For example, try the song I Exalt Thee. Tell Him all
the reasons you exalt Him and He will tell you all the ways He loves you During these times when you
enter into your quiet place of worship keep a journal, a bible and pen handy. As a matter of fact, it is best to
keep a journal of some type with you at all times. He may give you thoughts which need to be explored
later.

Journal Using Scripture Verses

Times of Bible reading are also fertile ground to hear His thoughts and instructions. Alone time with God
creates a sea of opportunity. Pick a verse or daily devotion, mediate on it, pray and listen for Holy Spirit to
speak. This is separate from the above mentioned scripture search. We need not wait or feel we should only
journal when in a place of trouble or emotional need. Holy Spirit is always there desiring to give
instruction. Take advantage.

Example:

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are
become new.” (2 Corinthians KJV). 1. I am Your new creation and the old things of My life have passed
away. I choose to give up, to lay my old ways of thinking at Your alter. After continuing with more self-
proclamation about what say it would be good to listen for a response. Feel free to incorporate as many
scriptures into this process as you like. The more you include the more encouraged you will be. 2. Write
your name. __________ are My new creation and I have removed the old man that you were. Right now by
the power of Holy Spirit I am touching the deep places of your heart, renewing your mind to think like Me.
Once you have completed your entry it is an opportune time to take the things Holy Spirit has said and
write them back as a prayer or declaration of agreement according to what He has spoken to you.

Journal to Minister Healing to Your Inner Child

As you spend time in worship, the Lord may remind you of a time in your childhood. Whether you
remember a painful or joyful experience, listen and write down the words Holy Spirit speaks to you. Let the
Spirit of the Lord speak gentle healing words to any painful situation that wounded you when you were
young. Write as if He is speaking to a child. As these words are written and you read them out loud healing
will take place, freeing you in your present. Maybe you were made fun of on the playground or picked last
for teams. Maybe you were told all your life you would never amount to anything or told you were stupid,
lazy etc. The old saying “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” is one of the
biggest lies ever perpetrated by the enemy. Life and death are in the power of the tongue so words have the
ability to encourage or destroy (Proverbs 18:20-22). Just a side thought, remember this when you speak to
others.

Example:

Imagine the situation and the feelings you still harbor over it. Consciously give it to the Lord and ask Him
to speak to you about how He felt when the circumstance took place? Write your name. ____________ I
was there and I saw it all. It was never My heart toward you. I always choose you first. You are My favorite
one. I formed you in your mother’s womb. No matter who forsakes you, I will never forsake you and take
care of you. I have always known you. I planned a destiny for you before the worlds were formed. It was
My will for those who nurtured you to help you discover just how special you are, but they like you, have
free will and chose to walk a different way in this matter. I am here to day to rectify the situation, remove
the sting and fill you with My love and acceptance. Open your heart and let My shepherding heart speak to
you.

Journal by Writing Your Concerns in Question Form

Write your concerns in question form, then stop close your eyes and listen. If you still struggle, imagine the
Lord telling you how much He loves you. Write down His words of love which you know are based on
Scripture. For example: I love you with an everlasting love. You are My heart’s desire. I just want you to
know I am for you and not against you. Open up and let Me pour My goodness into your life today…
Other ways to start are: written prayers, a Bible verse or a favorite worship song. Once you start with what
the Word says He says and feels about you, the rest will come. Don’t be afraid and trust Holy Spirit to lead
and guide you into all truth. He will speak to you with scriptures stored up in your heart. This is why it is so
important to read and know the word. The more you know, the more He can use to speak back to your
heart.

Journal Conclusions and Results Conclude your journal entry with some questions for further reflection
based on what He has said to you, or with specific points of instruction He wishes for you to walk out in
your everyday life. You may want to come back later and enter your journal on the computer, adding
relevant scripture verses and thoughts. I have found when I do this the Holy Spirit speaks even more to me,
blessing me with the Father’s love. Your Journal has the potential to become the catalyst, the jumping off
point, catapulting you into the greatest transformations of your life. It becomes an altar of remembrance, a
collection of God’s heart, and yes, an expression of the greatest love story ever told to the one He loves the
most-YOU
