We call this godly imagination. Then pray and ask the Holy Spirit to bring the scene alive (Eph. 1:17-18). Now tune to spontaneous flowing images, flowing thoughts, flowing emotions and flowing power\/energy. These are Jesus\u2019 voice, vision, emotion and power coming to you through the Holy Spirit.

You will not fall into the sin which you were tempted to commit. You see what Jesus is doing. You hear what He is saying. He obviously is not committing sin, and He is showing you how to resist as well. You watch Jesus in action and then do what you see Him doing.

As you write in faith, the flow continues.Faith allows God to move (Heb. 11:6). Doubt and unbelief cut Him off (Matt. 13:58). By writing in faith for 5-15 minutes you end up with a paragraph or a page of revelation from the Lord.

You will discover most of the time this flow is the voice of the Holy Spirit who flows within you as a River of Life.
