How to Overcome Your Trouble Seeing and Hearing God: Connect in His Language by Dr. Patty Sadallah

Dr. Patty Sadallah has offered us some great examples of simple "training wheels" for identifying and using the eyes and ears of our hearts. Below are excerpts from Patty’s full article (with a few inserts from Dr. Mark Virkler).
• The eyes of our hearts allow us to see pictures on the screen inside our minds.
• The ears of our hearts allow us to hear the inner dialogue that takes place in our heads.
________________________________________
To surrender your spiritual senses to allow God to communicate with you is to sanctify your imagination. The degree of clarity of seeing and hearing you experience in these exercises is similar to those when you encounter Jesus in journaling. It’s totally normal! The more you do, the more you can. Practice will increase your ability.

Heart Faculties Do Function Easily and Normally: Three Simple Tests to Prove it
1. Eyes: Your kitchen sink and refrigerator: Let’s practice using these spiritual senses right now. Here are three simple tests to prove how normal it is for you to use the senses of your heart. First, close your eyes and imagine your kitchen. Look around the screen of your mind. Walk up to your sink and turn it on. Touch the water, feel the temperature of the water, and then shut it off. And then go over to your fridge and open it. Do you feel the blast of cold? Examine the contents of your fridge. Were you able to do that? You just used the eyes of your heart. When Jesus is giving you visions, it is the same inner experience, other than the visions are being prompted by the flow of His Spirit within, and not me painting a picture for you to look at. Don’t miss how simple vision is by making it something harder than this!

2. Ears: Now close your eyes and sing Happy Birthday in your mind. Could you hear yourself singing in your mind? You just used the ears of your heart. When Jesus is speaking to your heart it is the same inner experience, except He is talking. A big reason people miss hearing His voice is that they make it harder or different than this experience.

3. Guided images: Now, this time, keep your eyes open. Imagine that you are holding an orange. Is the skin thick or thin? OK. Now, imagine that you are cutting the orange in half, and putting the orange up to your nose, do you smell it? Now squeeze the orange and touch a bit of juice to your tongue in your imagination. If you were able to experience any of these senses, you were able to surrender your imagination to my suggestion. Connecting with God is no different; you are simply inviting God to engage with you through those senses.

In two-way journaling, you are asking Jesus to show you things using the eyes of your heart and speak to you through the ears of your heart. The Holy Spirit who is joined to your spirit (1 Cor. 6:17) fills these senses with revelation from Jesus.

Overcoming doubt
Hearing and seeing by the spirit is so simple and easy and normal that we are tempted to doubt it and say, “It’s just me.” This is where faith in the promises comes in.

The Lord answered this question in Patty Sadallah’s journaling:
When you call on My name, do you expect Me or a demon to answer? Let Me tell you the Truth. No demon would dare answer My call. Be careful what you expect. Your expectations reveal your true heart. If you don’t believe that I can or will answer you, you will not be able to connect with Me. Not because I am not answering, but because you don’t believe that I am answering. Confess and repent for this unbelief and welcome Me to answer. Watch what I will do!

The more you do, the more you can. Practice will increase your ability.

Use this spiritual home base to meet Jesus regularly and He will always be there to communicate, heal, direct, and comfort you as needed. Building memories with Him in your special place is a faith propeller that will transform you into your Christ Identity.

I (Mark Virkler) would like to add this
If you believe it is just your mind speaking back to you and not Jesus: Bind the demons of doubt and unbelief and rebuke them in Jesus' name and state your confession that you are a believer. You believe the Bible works in you. You are a sheep and Jesus promised that His sheep hear His voice. So you hear Jesus’ voice, period. Fear, doubt, and unbelief be gone in Jesus' name! I am a believer!

Quiet Faithfulness in Christ
Bible in a Year :
Genesis 10–12
Matthew 4
Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands.

Today's Scripture & Insight :

1 Thessalonians 4:1–2, 9–12
I didn’t notice him at first.

I’d come down for breakfast at my hotel. Everything in the dining room was clean. The buffet table was filled. The refrigerator was stocked, the utensil container packed tight. Everything was perfect.

Then I saw him. An unassuming man refilled this, wiped that. He didn’t draw attention to himself. But the longer I sat, the more I was amazed. The man was working very fast, noticing everything, and refilling everything before anyone might need something. As a food service veteran, I noticed his constant attention to detail. Everything was perfect because this man was working faithfully—even if few noticed.

Watching this man work so meticulously, I recalled Paul’s words to the Thessalonians: “Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands . . . so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders” (1 Thessalonians 4:11–12). Paul understood how a faithful worker might win others’ respect—offering a quiet testimony to how the gospel can infuse even seemingly small acts of service for others with dignity and purpose.

I don’t know if the man I saw that day was a believer in Jesus. But I’m grateful his quiet diligence reminded me to rely on God to live out a quiet faithfulness that reflects His faithful ways.

Reflect & Pray
How should your faith affect the way you work? In what ways is being a faithful worker a powerful testimony?

Father, please help me to remember that there are no small jobs in Your kingdom and to faithfully serve You each day. Amen.
