The church I am in now is really missionary and outreach focused, which is great, but not so hot at actually making disciples and teaching them the ways of the LORD.

Actually, the ministries of Kenneth Hagin and Kenneth Copeland might not be a bad place to investigate, in spite of this other individual's feelings. They teach to take the Bible as God's Word, and apply It to one's everyday life for everyday things.

For instance, I have cancer; have had it for a long time. Should have died eight years ago and was bed-ridden for years. But I took God at His Word, as taught by Gloria Copeland, Kenneth's wife, saying over, and over, over and over, and over, etc. Isaiah 53: 5 and 1 Peter 2:24 "By whose stripes I am healed." God got me out of my death bed--it took a while, believe me! I still have this problem, but God is going to finish what He began, so I continue with my faith. Anyway, this is more of what Rhema is, rather than visualization, I guess that other poster was suggesting Rhema was?

Anyway, Rhema.org or kcm.org is where you could look.

The problem there is that Kenny Copeland and Hagin interpret the Bible through occultic metaphysical constructs that ammount to nothing more than witchcraft.

  Ecc 3:1   To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
  
  Ecc 3:2   A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up [that which is] planted;


God knows your days and has numbered them..that is in His word too...
