The Lord had been leading me to learn more about the gifts of the Holy Spirit.  I developed a hunger for more of a spiritual relationship with God.  I visited any credible church that had Christian prophets, evangelists, deliverance ministers and  permitted them to lay hands on me for prophesy and prayer.

Shortly after that the journaling started.  I remember the first time journaling happened to me.   I was recording my thoughts and reasonings after reading the Word of God.  One day, I recognized spontaneous thoughts from my spirit coming into my mind. At first  I believed these thoughts originated from my mind but the thoughts  referred to me in the third person and Jesus in the first person.  The thoughts were beautiful, Godly thoughts.   I recorded them in my journal as they came forth from my spirit.

I was skeptical to say the least.  After my experience with channeling before I became a Christian, I tested these  thoughts carefully with the Word of God.  Not only were these thoughts confirmed by the Bible scriptures I knew but they tested out by scriptures that were not known to me at the time.

These spontaneous thoughts were not the same as channeling in the following ways:

I reasoned that this must be a type of prophesy and shared my journal writing with my husband and other Christians who said that these stories, writing, and visions could be from the Lord.   They replied that some of the journal entries were definitely from God and a few could have been from God or could have originated from me.

I continued writing and one day I was watching "Catch the Fire Ministries" on TV.   Mark Virkler is the leading expert on hearing the voice of God was a guest on their show.  He struggled many years of not hearing God even though he was an ordained minister and pastor.

He discussed journaling and described exactly what I was doing--writing down what God was speaking to me through my spirit.   I found his study guide "Communication With God" to be one of the most informational Christian books I have ever read.   In his book, he explains how journaling is vitally important in a supernatural walk with the Lord Jesus.  

Journaling is an entry into learning to exercise the spiritual senses God has given all born-again Christians.  As journaling is practiced, there is more confidence to exercise the other spiritual gifts such as prophesy, healing, words of knowledge, faith and evangelism.  Many journaling beginners have their writings evaluated by other mature Christians that can tell if the writing is from God or from the soul.
