I just came across Mr Doug's book "Dialogues" and I'm SO EXCITED!! Because within the last almost 1 year God has done the same with me! Led me into personal dialogue and I write it and He talks. I'm so glad there are others!!!! Anyone else have this too??

It doesn’t happen to me as I don’t hear God that often/that well yet, but that’s really cool! When you write the dialogues, is it in the same format as Doug has them written?

I talk and then HE talks. It is in similar format. It is amazing that the GOD of the entire universe, heavens, etc would speak to me in conversations. I've grown up with a lot of misperceptions about who God is as our Father along with abandonment issues. So GOd has been very patient with me and shown me what a perfect Father is - it is HIM! HE talks to me about even the little things - such as my food intake. Sometimes He will tell me what or how much. HE made us, HE knows everything about us. Is it any wonder HE wouldnt talk to us intimately considering HE already knows us to closely? It is a HUGE LIE to believe that GOD wont speak to humans on a personal level. Probably one of the most damaging lies among churches/denominations. I remember about a year back searching the web to see if anyone else like me also has 'dialogues' or 'conversations' with GOd and I could hardly find any results. Why is it so rare? It's not that GOD isnt willing, it's that we don't have faith or believe HE can do that. I don't know how it started for me one. I mean, I just remember it was December 18th 2017 and I sat down and started having a conversation with GOD in my journal. It blew my mind! He is SO patient and SO kind and SO Fatherly!! IT's incredible! HE is really tough sometimes and pulls no punches, HE says what HE means but it's always to help not knock down or beat up. But HE is so kind and so full of wonderful little blessings and surprises.

Matthew, I went to your profile and saw your website. Why do you have a film about ROmania?? I'm FROM Romania!! I was born there, adopted out when I was almost 4 years old.

That's amazing. I would love to have that kind of intimacy with Him. Well, I'm Romanian I was born and raised in Chicago, but my parents were born in Romania. My last name is Popa, so that basically spells it out. I went on a short term mission trip last year with this missionary organization that my family is a part of and I was in charge of making a video for it, I'm actually in the process of making a few other videos at the moment as well.

That's so cool!!! Hello fellow Romanian! I'm from Timisoara. Anyways, yes this Dialogue thing is the craziest coolest thing ever and it's HIS idea! It is so good to know that yes God wants to instruct us, teach us, train us, spend time with us, etc. We are NOT alone in this journey, we have a perfect Father. I have pages and pages of journaled 'Dialogue' both on computer documents and in a hardback journal.

Matthew, don't give up. You are young (Don't forget Timothy was young) and you are chasing His heart. Keep trusting and drawing near. Never give up!

My dad is from Arad and my mom is from Alba Iulia.
This gives me a greater faith and desire to seek that dialogue with Him. I already know He has big things in store so I look forward to it!

I’m in the same boat as Matthew. Have only heard real clear a couple times.

Alright! I have questions now! (I had these for a while, but wasn't sure if/when to post them)
(Side note: Writing this after the questions. I think a testimony would probably answer quite a bit, but it's up to you.)
1. How did you come across Doug/FOTM?
2. How did you come to know Jesus?
3. Have supernatural things happened since you were young?
4. How did you start hearing God?
5. What led to the start of the dialogues?

1. Youtube, someone had posted a video of the time Doug met Jesus and stepped into the Mind of Christ. That video was POWERFUL!!
2. After adoption, I was raised Christian (Assembly of God denomination). I've always on and off hungered to know Him intimately though, in a real way, even as a child.
3. Supernatural things - dreams. I've had prophetic dreams, many which I've stored in my heart and files, some of which were about people I knew.
4. The super close journey to God has started in the last couple years. I've been seeking GOd for myself about the last 5-6 years but actually knowing Him closely and hearing Him more regularly started in the last I'd say 2 years.
5. Seeking Him, just wanting to know Him. One evening (December 18) I sat down to my journal and wrote what I felt HE was saying to me and it just continued and continued, like a conversation between a Father and His girl. It's been almost a year now. It isnt every single day. Sometimes He is silent. I used to get very scared by it, but sometimes I see He wants to know if I'm going to trust and obey. Also, it is a time to realize that this Dialogue is not an entitlement. HE is GOD and can do as He pleases, speak when He pleases. I do not hold the strings nor can I control this relationship, I can only submit to Him. Sometimes HE is very firm and tough. Other times He is very very tender. He does discipline (creatively), but only after I already know what Ive done wrong. He can be funny and playful too. HE is so perfect towards me, giving me exactly what I need.

Not sure if your question was for j or everyone but here’s my response Was spinning out of control, getting sleep paralysis, and almost astral projected. (Unwillingly) so started looking into that and demons. My parents/church growing up Yes supernatural things happened. More-so as I’ve been older I’ve heard Him a bunch my whole life I just didn’t realize it was Him till now. I Haven’t really had dialogues like that.

Thanks for sharing Demitri. Tell us more about supernatural things that have happened? Be careful though, especially since you've been involved in demonic activity.

Not sure if your question was for j or everyone It was just for @j, but that’s okay, I like hearing people’s stories and testimonies
