I Hate Writing So How Can I Journal?

Mark Virkler's picture

Mark, I hate writing, and I essentially don’t write. Is there any chance of sending me a paragraph on what you spoke about yesterday on the phone about breaking off any lies, fears of writing, fears of English and resentments toward school teachers, so I could pray through these things and get into two-way journaling? Thanks, Noel


Noel, many of us have picked up a distaste for writing based on unpleasant experiences in school where teachers made writing an odious affair because we couldn’t get the grammar or spelling correct. So now we have some prayer work to do, to repent of ungodly beliefs, word curses, resentments and unforgiveness and spiritual forces which have been attracted to us through all these sins. So let’s get at it.

I Forgive Others…

Pray the following prayer at least once for each person who comes to mind who made writing unpleasant.

I forgive ______________ (picture their face and/or the situation) for making writing an unpleasant experience for me. I choose to release them and honor them and bless them in Jesus' name.

Repeat this prayer for each person you need to forgive.

I Repent for Embracing Lies…

I break off any lies I believe which suggest that I cannot write, or that writing is too hard, or that writing is odious. These are lies of the enemy. I repent for coming into agreement with them, and I state that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I can write. God can write through me, and give me creative, healing and compassionate words of love. I choose to hear these words and record them. Spelling and grammar are not important. This is a two-way love relationship. It is the sharing of love and creativity. Spelling is irrelevant at this point. I am simply recording the joy and ecstasy of two in love. I am receiving God’s creativity, compassion, and healing touch. Thank You, Lord.

I Break Off All Word Curses Spoken Over Me by Myself or Others...

I break off all spiritual forces connected with every negative word I or others have spoken over me about my inability or dislike of writing. These are lies from the enemy, which I now renounce. I accept the truth that I am a new creation in Christ. Old things have passed away and behold all things are new. I can write. I love to write. I am good at writing, because God is with me, and everything I put my hand to do, He will bless.

I command all demonic forces connected with these word curses to fall to the ground powerless. You have no power over me. In Jesus' name, I am set free. Those whom the Son sets free are free indeed. I am free in Christ. All spiritual forces connected with these word curses are now broken, and will no longer affect me in any way. Thank You, Lord! Amen!

I Am a King Who Has Been Commanded to Write…

As God commanded the Kings of Israel to write out a copy of the Pentateuch (Deut. 17:18), God has made me a king and I too will write out that which God is speaking to me. It is a way of honoring God. It is a way of experiencing His revelation more deeply. It is a way of staying in faith for longer periods of time, as I can wait to test it until after the flow of His revelation is done. I choose to be a king who honors Almighty God’s commands and words to me enough to write them down and submit them to others. I choose to write.

I Forgive Myself...

I forgive myself for entering into the above sins. I love and accept myself. I honor myself and I bless myself in Jesus' name. I stand complete in Christ. I am clothed with His righteousness and adorned with His glory and honor. I am spotless in His sight. I see myself this way. This is my true reality in Christ. Thank You, Lord.

I Break Off Demonic Forces...

I come against and renounce any and all demons who have attached themselves to me through the above sins. These include demons of fear and fear of failure, and ridicule and scorn, and doubt and unbelief and inadequacy, which say, "I can’t…” You are liars and I rebuke you and renounce you and come out of agreement with you. I will no longer give you a place. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I can write. I can release divine creativity and healing and power and revelation through my pen, and through my writing. I command these lying demons to leave me now and do not return. You have no place within me. Be gone now, in Jesus' name.

Take a few deep breaths and expel all darkness.

I Receive a Fresh In-filling of the Holy Spirit...

I ask You, Holy Spirit, to take control of these areas where darkness once reigned, and bring the light of God into them, fusing them to Your divine glory! I receive Your fullness, O Lord. Take control of my heart and mind and anoint my hands to write, to Your glory. Thank You, Lord. I receive this fresh new anointing in Jesus' name.

Breathe in God’s divine light and truth. Put a smile on your face. Relax and do some two-way journaling. Make it a daily practice. Let your life be transformed by the light of His glory. Show the world God is alive today, in you and through you to others. Present a living Savior to the world!

Fulfill Your Financial Destiny

Fulfill Your Financial Destiny

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 66 Pages

Though the economic system (mammon) of this world is under a curse, we have received instructions for how to move out from that dominion and into the blessing of the Kingdom of God. God’s promises to His children have not changed with the whims of government or Wall Street, nor have His directions for how to walk in those promises. We can “choose not to participate” in the economic recession that is around us if we instead choose to obey the logos and rhema of the Lord and enjoy the blessings that result.

Wouldn't it be great if there were a way for my body to tell me exactly what it needs and desires, without having to take expensive or invasive tests?

Hearing God Through Biblical Meditation

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 179 Pages | $15.99 retail list price

For many years I studied the Bible incorrectly, and it produced death rather than life. Even though I had a knowledge of the Scriptures, I did not personally experience the life and the realities they revealed. The Bible calls this the ministry of death, rather than the ministry of righteousness (2 Cor. 3:6–9). Upon coming out of Bible college, I found myself just like the apostle Paul, attacking those who disagreed with my theology.

How Do You Know?

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 180 Pages

How do you know? What is the process you use to discover truth? I did not ask that question during the first 25 years of my life. I used eleven different methods for discovering truth including: if my parents said so, then it was so. If my teacher said it was so, then it was so. If my pastor said it was so, then it was so. If my theology said it was so, then it was so. I have discarded them all and adopted a twelfth method, which is in harmony with what the Bible teaches. We teach you this method in this book.

How to Walk by the Spirit

How to Walk by the Spirit

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 136 Pages | Previous name "Sense Your Spirit"

Are you like many western Christians who have been taught little about how to sense their spirits? Do you have trouble even defining what spirit sensations feel like within you, much less recognizing them? This training was birthed from Mark’s passion to live out of his spirit, and thus release the anointing of God. The problem he faced was lack of clear biblical definition as to what his spirit felt like. So Mark looked up every verse in the Bible on heart and spirit.
