Douglas M. Wicks
ABOUT THE AUTHOR Douglas M. Wicks, Sr. is an early baby boomer born in Prichard, Alabama. He was the youngest of five children born to his late parents, Charlie and Altha Wicks. After graduating from M. T.

He is a divorcee with one child, Douglas M. Wicks, II. After pursuing a career filled with many personal triumphs and painful defeats as a professional Urban Planner, entrepreneur, and elected official in Mobile, Alabama, and many years of bible study and seeking the will of God for his life through prayer and fasting, he answered his call to ministry in 2004 after an encounter with the Holy Spirit who downloaded the revelation contained in this book that changed the course of his life. He faithfully taught in a prison ministry, at nursing homes and local churches in Mobile until the Lord called him to be ordained as an Apostle in 2008. In 2010 he began Spiritual Warfare Ministries, Inc., and began to hold weekly bible studies out of his office in Prichard, AL. Spiritual Warfare Ministries, Inc. is broadcasted each Saturday, 12:30 PM, on WMOB Radio 1360 AM and WTOF Radio 1110 AM , which covers southwest Alabama and northwest Florida. The foundational scriptures for the ministry are: Galatians 1:11-12, For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel preached by me is not man's gospel. For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ. And 1 Corinthians 2:12, Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, [that we might understand the things freely given us by God].

Un-repentance versus Impenitent
Repent - means to turn from sin and dedicate oneself to the amendment of one’s life, and to feel regret or contrition for one’s sinfulness. True repentance must reflect the Fruits of the Spirit and the lifestyle of Christ, which was predicated of his love toward us "…while we were yet in sin".
Impenitent – means not to repent; no regret or contrition for a sinful act or lifestyle.
Un-Repentance (unrepentance) – as used in the text differs from impenitent in that a sinful act or lifestyle
is subjectively and selectively defined; a spirit of self righteousness through selective observance and rationalization of biblical laws and principles; willful self delusion for personal gain; replacement and compromise of truth for expediency.
The unrepentant spirit deviates from biblical truth by rationalizing and upholding subjective social norms and value judgments that have a form of godliness, but deny the power thereof. It is a demonic doctrine of deception, hypocrisy and condemnation of others who are not like-minded. Un-repentance is a prominent component of Pharisaic doctrine that emphasizes religious rightness
over godly motive and intent, and void of His Fruit(s) of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).
Vain – having or showing undue or excessive pride in one’s appearance or achievement: conceited.
Wile – a trick or stratagem intended to ensnare or deceive (enticing deceit).
However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature … the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, but God has revealed them to us through His Spirit, … yes, the deep things of God … that we may know the things that have been freely given to us by God. (1 Corinthians 2:6,7,10,12)
Introduction
It has been three and one half years since God gave me the revelation in 2004 to complete this book. The experience of being in the presence of God in His throne room, and the recording of revelations and mysteries He imparted, have been so precious and so astounding to me that I could not allow myself to become overly anxious about concluding any part of the process. I received such a wealth of revelation that so exceeded my intellect and understanding, that godly reverence consumed me. Moreover, I knew that God desired to give me so much more, but he had to first increase my capacity to receive and understand to a greater degree. I had to be expanded in all areas of my ministry to contain it all, and develop a love walk with him. Directed by the Holy Spirit, I had to be crushed a new and made to rely entirely on Him for instruction and direction.
Hearing From God is about God’s plan for man and the provisions he made available for us to prosper. It is also about the plan of Satan to deceive man and limit his relationship with God.
Additionally, Hearing from God is revelation about the very core of my existence, my needs, desires and ambitions. It answered the deep seated questions of my heart, and the mysteries that related to my dreams and visions. It helped me to understand my personality and why I think the way I do. It made me to understand that everything we accomplish is a measure of God’s grace and goodness, and that man cannot accomplish anything without ability He gives us.
I was led by the Holy Spirit to recognize that there must be a pursuit of purpose
to discover it. Each person has to pursue their own purpose. Your pursuit of purpose begins with a God given need seeded in your spiritual DNA to know the why
and the what for
you are here. If you diligently seek God to reveal His divine plan and ministry assignments for your life, they will be revealed.
Any God inspired pursuit will be filled with opposition and trials, valleys and peaks, victories and defeats, steps forward and steps backward, and periods of silence from God. It is the times of … having done all to stand, stand therefore
(Eph. 6:13), is when you will face your greatest challenge and experience your greatest reward. As I look back over my life I can see these patterns, and have begun to experience the rewards of pursuit: the recording of the revelations and insight God has given me in this manuscript, Hearing From God. Every time I read the revelations given me, I am enlightened anew with bits of additional insight. I still believe that there is much more revelation to be gleaned if I continue to seek him more diligently for it. God always rewards diligence and faith.
In the reading of this book, I want the readers to be able to distinguish between the revelations the Holy Spirit imparted to me, which I wrote in italics, from insightful commentaries he put in my spirit to write. I also attempted to validate both (revelations and commentaries) with biblical scriptures and examples. I was challenged by the fact that some of the terminology used is not in the bible and some subject matter is uncommon in most traditional religious instruction. Although some subjects and terminology are not common, they all are described in the bible in similitude and parabolic pictures that could only be uncovered by the Holy Spirit. In these end times, as God pours out His Spirit on all flesh, the revelation of such mysteries must be revealed according to His promise to the saints. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth (about all things) and Life; a gift from God to prosper us in accessing all the provisions of his kingdom.
However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature … the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, but God has revealed them to us through His Spirit, … yes, the deep things of God … that we may know the things that have been freely given to us by God (1 Corinthians 2:6, 7, 10, 12).
Another challenge in writing this book was to determine how to separate revelations of a personal nature from those given for the edification of the body. In the original manuscript, I included people, places and activities that are excluded in this volume to protect their privacy as well as mine. Much of what is shared is explanation of events and situations, dreams and visions that related to specific events in my life that have spiritual significance for ministry. I was amazed how God revealed to me that certain encounters and memories with strong emotions attached to them had spiritual significance. It is God’s desire that the residents of his kingdom, the saints, fully understand the methodology of the devil and discern his presence in all environments. By revealing how demonic spirits were operating in confounding trials and challenges in my personal life, I was able to understand their influence on my behavior, as well as some of the behavior of others. Hence, some personal descriptions and revelations are included as examples to bring edification to events and circumstances in the life of the reader.
In retrospect, I know that it took empirical knowledge and my soulish
experiences (i.e., intellect, emotions, feelings, perception, etc.) to understand the dynamics and affects of demonic spirits on myself and others. The ones that troubled me most presented an emotional conundrum that was beyond my soulish understanding. Many of the negative behavioral outcomes I experienced were the results of the spiritual warfare that was being waged against the plan of God for my life. I was imparted revelation knowledge about spiritual warfare that takes place within and between people, and over territories (geographic areas). If I were to minister in the area of spiritual warfare successfully, I had to acquire knowledge of kingdom principles and knowledge of the devil’s troops and stratagem. This book is a comprehensive account of how the Holy Spirit revealed this knowledge to me and its purpose.
I was particularly challenged to receive the revelation about time and space, and the universe that included a mathematical equation that I could comprehend in theory only. I was never a good math student and did not enjoy and appreciate the wondrous beauty and efficacy of math until I took inferential statistics in graduate school. My knowledge of math is so limited and elementary that I did not attempt to seek understanding from reference books to expound on it further, nor did I attempt to evaluate it through expert review. I simply present it as it was revealed to me without fear of criticism. I believe that someone with training and expertise in the fields of math and physics will at some point further develop this equation and confirm the word of God. I hope the person will be spirit filled.
Likewise, I present the revelation about light energy and the light energy power conversion process. I have little knowledge about this subject and no formal training in any related field of science. I know that many questions will be asked and many will dismiss such simplistic references, and that there may be harsh criticism from both the scientific and religious communities. Validation of these revelations, the lost continent/city of Atlantis, and others presented herein will either be confirmed or refuted within the succeeding months and years. My only defense is that I heard the voice of God, recorded the information to the best of my comprehension, and was obedient to his call.
A major challenge in editing the manuscript was trying to determine how to present revelation and information on similar subject matter that was given at different times. Most of the contents of the text are presented in the order in which it was revealed to me. These appear under different subheadings and sections, but relate and connect to subjects described in other sections. The common thread that connects them all is God’s desire that the saints have knowledge of all his provisions and the tools to wage successful spiritual warfare. The reader is challenged to connect the dots
and pray for discernment.
I was challenged by my knowledge of the word that God moves in due time and season(s) to complete his plan in the earth, and that I had to be available and prepared (made ready) to avoid missing God when he speaks. The challenge of being ready and available, preparation, is a godly burden with pressure from his Holy Spirit; his way of bringing you to the intersection
