SR: You know Lana, I’ve I I’ve said this to
you before.

LV: Mm.
SR: You’re unique, not because you teach people

how to hear God’s voice,
LV: Mmh.

SR: but from day one, you had a passion for
God, and a passion to hear His voice! How

did you have such this passion to hear
God’s voice?

LV: I would say, honestly, it was God. Like
it I honestly believe it was a literal impartation

from the Spirit of God. The moment I got saved,
I had this incredible hunger, this cry within

me that came out, that said, “God, I want
You to speak, and I want You to “, “I want

to hear Your voice, so I will do anything,
I will go anywhere, I’ll do whatever I have

to do to hear from You.” And I literally positioned
myself day and night, on my bedroom floor,

for hours at a time, and I said, “God, I’m
not moving, until I hear from You.”

SR: Now, at that time were you Spirit-filled?
Did you pray in tongues?

LV: No, not originally. So I got saved when
I was 16, I was I had this incredible hunger,

and then I just started waiting on the Lord!
And one night, as I was waiting on Him, I

felt what I now know was the presence of God,
and the power of God filled my room. And from

that moment of being baptized in the Holy
Spirit, my life completely changed! My senses

were activated, and I began to see and hear,
but yet I had no grid for it. You know like

I I was crying out for something that I didn’t
even know how to how to process what was happening.

All I knew was God, I’ve s I’ve read the Word
that says that John 10:27, “My sheep hear

My voice,” so that’s an invitation for me
to hear. So I’m taking that promise, and I’m

I want it. I want all of it.
SR: You start your prayer in a way I haven’t

heard before, and I’m going to start doing
it.

LV: Yeah.
SR: You start each morning with a question

for God: “God, what’s on Your heart?”
LV: Um-hm.

Audience: Hmm!
SR: You’re not you don’t start with your petitions,

your laundry list.
LV: Right.

SR: Why? Why do you ask that question?
LV: I had this moment of revelation when I

was sitting with the Lord one day in my room,
and I thought, “Hang on a second. This is

the ‘King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords’
that I’m sitting before right now, and He’s

invited me into this place of being able to
hear His voice. So if that’s true, which it

is, I want to ask You what You’re dreaming
about. I want to know what it is that You’re

speaking over my life, over my family, over
my city and my nation, and then I want to

align myself with exactly what You’re saying,
and decree it, and activate my faith.”

SR: There was a moment, it was, you call it
your great awakening moment! Tell me about

that.
LV: Yeah, that was the very first moment that

I’d been crying out to the Lord, asking to
hear His voice, and feasting on the Word.

And all of a sudden, one particular evening,
I’m sitting with the Lord, and I hear an audible

voice that says three words, “I love you”,
and it startled me. It was it was literally

–
SR: Did you look around to see if someone

was in the room?
LV: I did!

SR: [laughs]
Audience: [laughs]

LV: I did! It was l the only way I can describe it
was that it just shook everything within me.

It was like it was an external voice, yet
it just it went inside of me. It reverberated

within me, and it awakened me, because for
up until that point, I had struggled with

my identity, and so much fear, and not knowing
who I was, and I had pain.

SR: But it sounds so almost, I hate to say it,
almost trite. It’s we hear that, “God loves

you”, “God love “,
LV: Yeah.

SR: and we hear that all the time.
LV: Yes!

SR: Why did it have such an impact on you?
LV: Because of what I had walked through in

my life, the things that I had experienced.
I had a lot of pain in my heart, and in that

moment I realized it really is all about love.
Audience: Amen.

LV: It is about knowing the love of God. God
doesn’t love me because of what I do, right?

He loves me for who I am.
SR: That’s a hard thing for us humans to grasp,

LV: Absolutely.
SR: what you just said.

LV: Yeah!
SR: There was another time you heard the audible

voice of God. You were in a church office.
LV: Yeah.

SR: What happened?
LV: I was sitting in my office in the morning.

I had the same question, “Lord, what’s on
Your heart today?”, and all of a sudden, I

hear this audible voice, and it says to me,
“Pick up your pen and write.” So I picked

up my pen, and all of a sudden the power of
God hit my hand. It felt like electricity

was going through every part of my body, and
my hand started to write at a thousand miles

an hour. I remember watching my hand, thinking,
“I can’t write this fast,”

SR: [laughs]
Audience: [laughs]

LV: [laughs] and so much of what was contained
when it within this letter from God was all

these Promises of Scripture! And it wasn’t
something I sat there going, “Okay, the Bible

says”, and I wrote it.
SR: Um-hm.

LV: It was the supernatural flow of just absolutely
beautiful truth from God about identity, about

destiny, and about His nature.
SR: But then you heard

LV: Oh!
SR: something that was [chuckling] said was

terrifying to her!
LV: [chuckles]

SR: What did you hear?
LV: Here I am, looking at this letter, thinking,

“Thank You, Jesus!, I’m going to hold this
forever. This is my letter.” And the voice

comes again and says, “Lana, pick up that
letter and take it next door to the pastor.”

Now you have to understand the context is
that I was in a beautiful church, they were

helping me understand the Word of God, they
were training me in leadership, but they weren’t

teaching on the prophetic, and understanding
the voice of God in these ways. So I’m thinking,

“God, how am I going to pick up this letter
and go and deliver it? What do I say?”

SR: [chuckles]
LV: But I had a moment, and this moment was

am I going to sit here and not obey God, or
am I going to obey God and maybe look silly?

And I thought it’s you know what, I’m I’m
okay with looking silly.

SR: [chuckles]
LV: So I went and knocked on the door, and

I mumbled something along the lines of, an
Audible voice said “Pick up your pen and write.”

The power of God hit my hand, and it told
me to bring it to you.'” And he just looked

at me and said, “Thank You very much.” [chuckling]
And I ran back to my office and wanted to

crawl under the table. But a couple of minutes
later there was a knock at the door. And I

turned around, and I opened the door, and
here was this beautiful man, and he was weeping.

And he said to me, “How did you know everything
that you wrote here?”, and I said, “It was

God.” And he said, “Today, Lana, I went down,
and I was in the restroom.” He said, “And

I said to the Lord, ‘If you don’t answer these
questions in my life today, I’m I’m not doing

ministry anymore like I’m done.'”
Audience: Wow.

LV: He said, “Every line on this piece of
paper is the answer to every question that

I asked.”
Audience: [applause and cheers]

SR: And you know, so Lana got a word, from
God’s heart just to her. LV: Um-hm.

SR: But God knew it was also for the pastor
that totally he would have shipwrecked himself

without that word. And you realized
LV: Yes!

SR: how important this gift is!
LV: Yeah! And you know, he would often say,

“From that point on, Lana, that”, “that moment
changed my life.” But you know what, that

moment changed my life too, because I realized
that God doesn’t want to just speak to me,

He wants to speak through me.
Audience: Yes.

SR: Mm.
LV: Yeah.

SR: Did you know she talked about the audible
voice of God, but that is not the average

way that God speaks to her, or most Believers!
LV: Mm.

SR: We’re going to talk about it when we come
back some things she’s learned about understanding

the voice of God that will, you will hear
the voice of God!

LV: Um-hm.
SR: Be right back!

LV: [chuckles]
Audience: [applause and cheers]

[music] ANNOUNCER: We now return to
“It’s Supernatural!”

Audience: [applause and cheers]

SR: You know, Lana, they talk about the left
brain people, and right brain people, one

are the creators, the other, are the logical
engineer types.

LV: Yes.
SR: Well I have a problem: Both of them kick in

LV: [chuckling] Yes!

SR: with me! But my logical side says if God
wants to tell me something, He will just tell

me something!
LV: [chuckles]

SR: But you found something else about God.
LV: Mm.

SR: Tell me about this lingering, as you call
it.

LV: Yeah. I had a dream one night, and all
night long I heard a voice that I knew was the

Lord, saying over and over again, asking a
question: “Where are those who will linger?”,

and it was all night long. And as I was waking
in the morning, in that kind of a wake-sleep

state, I remember my heart saying to the Lord,
“Lord, I will linger. What are you saying

about lingering?”, and He said, “To those
who linger, I will entrust the secrets of

My Heart”, and I woke up. And from that point
on, the Lord began to speak to me about the

place of a positioning of lingering. That
the Lord is looking for us to be people that

sit with Him, and just linger in His presence.
SR: What do you do

LV: Um-hm.
SR: that means lingering?

LV: My lingering place looks like it looks
different every day, but mostly I will just

sit with the Lord, and I will create a space
where I will worship or I will soak. And I’m

asking that same question, “Lord, what is
on Your heart? What do you want to say right

now? I’m not rushing out of Your presence.
I’m here to know You. I want to hear Your

voice.” And so I I make intentional times
to actually just be with Him.

SR: Where does expectancy come to see God
speaking all the time? Is that important?

LV: Absolutely. I really believe that there
a key to hearing God’s voice is being expectant.

It’s looking. I talk a lot about in my book
about looking for Him everywhere. Just, you

know, He’s always speaking, He’s always moving,
so it’s my responsibility to be looking, and

asking the Lord to calibrate my eyes and my
ears to understand the language of the Spirit,

and the ways that He is speaking every day.
SR: it is almost like a different language!

LV: Absolutely.
SR: You look you told me you look a lot

LV: Um-hm.
SR: for repetition.

LV: Yes.
SR: Explain that.

LV: Yeah. The Lord spoke to me very clearly
when I was um a couple of years ago asking

Him about understanding the language of the
Spirit, and He said to me, “Lana, pay attention

to repetition.” And so I began to, well, my
first thing I did was I prayed that the Holy

Spirit would enlighten me to patterns in my
life, that He would help me to see the repetitive

things, in the positive, that was happening.
But the Lord spoke to me very clearly, and

He said, “Lana,” He said, “go and research
things.” He said, “Go and research. If I highlight

a symbol that you don’t understand, go
and look at it in the natural, and have a

look at what the”, “what the facts are about
certain symbols, and just watch and see what

I’ll do.” And that’s exactly what happened
to me with one particular symbol that He kept

highlighting over and over.
SR: What was that?

LV: It was the Eiffel Tower. So I was sitting
in a coffee shop, and I was having a coffee

with Jesus and I looked up,
SR: stop for one second.

LV: Yes.
SR: Isn’t that a neat idea!

LV: [chuckles]
Audience: [chuckles]

SR: Coffee with Jesus!
Audience: [laughs]

LV: [laughs]
SR: I like that idea!

Audience: [laughs and applause]
SR: [laughs] I’m sorry! [laughs]

LV: [laughs]
SR: Go ahead.

LV: Yes. So I was sitting, having a coffee
with Jesus, and I looked up and there was

a painting on the wall of an Eiffel Tower,
and I knew straight away that the Lord was

highlighting it. It was it was like it was
3D to me, I couldn’t stop staring at it. I

thought, “That’s interesting”, and I asked
the Lord, I didn’t hear anything. For the

next 3 to 4 weeks, I started seeing the Eiffel
Tower everywhere I went. People gave me gifts

of the Eiffel Tower. I didn’t tell anybody.
So I sat down, and I started researching on

Wikipedia and different things, and found
out that the Eiffel Tower was an antenna for

communication, it was used to call troops
to the frontline, and it was rooted and grounded

in the city of love. And the Lord spoke to
me, and He said, “This is a prophetic picture,

Lana, of what I’ve called you to do.” He said,
“You will”, “You will tap into My heart, and

hear the sound waves of Heaven and what”,
“what’s being released in My heart.” He said,

“And then you will take it”, He said, “and
you will decree it.” He said, “And you will”,

“you will see My Spirit awaken My people and
call them to the front line, into everything

that I’ve called them to be, but always rooted
and grounded in the”, “in the love of Jesus”,

right, “the revelation of My love that never
changes, and nothing can separate them from

My love.”
Audience: [applause and cheers]

SR: Hm. And you know something?
LV: Hmm.

SR: You would have missed that
LV: Yes!

SR: if you didn’t do the research!
LV: That’s exactly right!

SR: I mean that I [sighs] I have to tell you,
with all of my logic, I wouldn’t have figured

out to do that!
LV: Yeah! [laughs]

SR: [chuckles]
LV: Yeah!

SR: You know, [sighs] the things that you
have learned over these decades,

LV: Hmm.
SR: they’re so important for us to understand,

LV: Mh.
SR: because literally, God is speaking to

us in a heavenly dimension,
LV: Yes.

SR: and she has learned revelation as to how
we can hear this. But here she is in her

home country, Australia,
LV: [chuckles]

SR: no interest I mean she loves America as
a great country, and the good wonderful things

we’ve done, but [chuckling] zero interest,
and she had as much interest in the Presidential

election as I have in the Australian
LV: [chuckles]

Audience: [chuckles]
SR: political election. Minus zero.

And all of a sudden, God starts speaking to
her about it. And also, will you pray, when

we come back, an impartation for us to hear
God’s voice?

LV: Absolutely.
SR: Would you like that?

Audience: Yes! [applause and cheers]
SR: Be right back!

[music] ANNOUNCER: We now return to “It’s
Supernatural!”

Audience: [applause and cheers]
SR: So, so Lana is not a political person,

LV: [chuckles]
SR: especially not the politics of the United

States.
LV: [chuckles]

SR: And so you’re kind of minding your own
business,

LV: Yeah!
SR: and what happens?

LV: I go to bed one night, and I have a dream.
And in my dream it was one of those dreams

that was so vivid and I saw Donald Trump,
and he was standing in an arena, and he was

putting he was speaking really passionately,
but I couldn’t hear anything he was saying.

And then all of a sudden I was taken above
the United States, and I remember I was like

floating, and I was looking down, and across
the nation, in red letters, it said the word

“Trump”. And then all of a sudden the nation
began to shake, like violently, and as it

was shaking, the letters rearranged, and it
became “Triumph”. And I hear this booming

voice, in my dream, that says, “Donald Trump
shall lead the United States into triumph”,

and I woke up.
Audience: [applause and cheers]

SR: But, so, she had several dreams,
LV: Um hmm.

SR: and he becomes President. But then

she had a very strong warning
LV: Um hmm.

SR: about President Trump.
LV: Um hmm.

SR: What was that?
LV: Yeah, after that dream, the Lord I really

felt gave me His heart, to really just be
praying for him. And one morning I was sitting

with Lord, having my coffee, and I said, “What’s
on Your heart today, Lord?”, and straightaway

a vision opened up in front of my eyes, and
Jesus took me into a room. And we were standing

at the back of the room, looking, and at a
table, a planning table, I saw um what I saw

the enemy, and there were all these demons
all around him. And they were looking at a

blueprint. And I knew that it was a blueprint
of not great things planned to come against

Donald Trump. And the Lord looked at me, and
He said, “You must call the intercessors to

be rising up in the Body of Christ to be praying
protection over Donald Trump, as he moves

into everything that I have for him.”
SR: Somehow, despite what our limited information

is telling us, God has the big picture, and
all I know is, I want to follow God!

LV: Amen.
Audience: [applause and cheers]

SR: And I want to pray right now, for the
protection

LV: Um hmm.
SR: of President Trump.

LV: Mm.
SR: Would you agree with me?

LV: Mm.
Audience: Yes. [applause]

SR: After all, God says we’re to do that.
LV: Yes.

SR: Father, in Jesus’ name,
LV: Mm.

SR: we agree that there are Angels all around
him.

Audience: Yes.
SR: We agree that there is a wall of protection

around him and his wife and his children.
LV: Hmm, hmm.

Audience: Yes.
SR: And we agree “no weapon formed against

him can prosper”.
Audience: Amen.

SR: And we agree that you will give this President
wisdom.

Audience: Yes!
SR: Wisdom is the principle thing!

LV: Mm.
SR: Wisdom to run this country. For what purpose?

I know Your purpose, God! America has not
fulfilled its destiny. We are to evangelize

the world!
Audience: Yes!

SR: That’s why we have to
LV: Mm.

SR: pray for America to be all that God’s
called it to be!

LV: Amen.
SR: Now Lana, you had a vision, how one word

from God can change everything.
LV: Yeah. I had this incredible vision, sitting

with the Lord. I was going through a season
of incredible battle of the mind. There

was so much stuff going on in my head. And
I said, “Lord, I just I need to hear Your

truth, because I know that it’s one Word that
You speak can shift everything. So Lord, what

is Your truth?”, and straightaway I had this
vision, and I saw Jesus. And He was kneeling

down, leaning over a tree stump, and His hands
were tied. And as I looked up to the right,

there was a man with a whip, and on the left
was the enemy. And the enemy was standing

there looking at me, and he was accusing me.
He was he was accusing me of things in my

past. He was saying, “This is who you are”,
you know, this is “You’re not going to do

this”, and he was absolutely going after me.
But every single time he spoke, the man on

the right would whip Jesus across the back,
and He would cry out and it still makes me

emotional He would cry out, and He would decree
the truth of who I was.

Audience: [applause]
LV: He would decree who I am, and His great

love for me, and what He had called me to.
And every lie that the enemy spoke against

me, the Lord decreed His truth. And, in that
moment, I knew that Jesus has taken it all,

and He’s taken my sin, He’s taken everything.
And and I stand in Him righteous, and free,

and forgiven, and washed clean by the blood
of Jesus. And that encounter changed my life,

because I saw the demonstration of His love
in a way I’ve never seen in visual form. And

here I was, thinking it was the voice of God,
decreeing truth, that broke the power of those

lies in my life.
SR: I want you to pray for us to hear God!

LV: Yeah. Lord, I thank You that we have the
Promise that, “My sheep hear My voice”. So

Lord, right now, in the name of Jesus, I release
an impartation to every person watching, to

hear the voice of God. May He surprise you
in ways with His voice. Lord, I pray for the

Spirit of wisdom and revelation. Lord, I pray
an impartation of dreams and visions, Lord

encounters with You. Lord, that joy would
burst forth in their life as they seek after

You and seek Your heart to hear Your voice.
Lord, and that the invitation of Your heart

to see and to hear, and that You are a God
that confirms Your Word, would just fill Your

people, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Audience: [applause]

SR: I want you to tell people, eyeball to
eyeball, how powerful they are, and that they

can shine!
LV: Yes. I want to encourage you today. You

are powerful today, wherever you are, whatever
you’re doing. That as you walk with Jesus,

and you hold His hand, that He has greater
plans for you than you could ever imagine.

That right now today, that the Holy Spirit
wants to flow through you in ways that you

could never have imagined. That you are called
to shine. That you are an atmosphere shifter,

that you are called to release the love and
light of Jesus. And so today I want to encourage

you, that as you go about your day to day
life, be asking the Lord, “What are You saying,

God?” “What are You doing?”, and “Use me today,
to minister, and to extend Your Kingdom”,

because one word of encouragement, one word
can change somebody’s life. And you know what,

it’s not about having all your I’s dotted
and your T’s crossed. [music] The Lord isn’t

looking for ability, He’s looking for availability.
Audience: Yes.

LV: So you are powerful today. And your “Yes”
to Him, you hold onto your hat because God

is going to blow you away by what He is going
to do through you.

SR: “You are God’s workmanship, created in
Messiah Jesus

for good works”, now do ’em!
LV: [laughs]

Audience: [applause and cheers]
