How do I begin to explain how my life has changed over the last week??
Let’s start with how my prayer life has blossomed. As I mentioned in my post last week, over the course of December I began to have visions while praying. Sometimes, I would feel God’s presence, sometimes I would see Jesus, and as I prayed, He would show me things, or give me instruction. Once I was instructed to pray for my family’s protection, and as I knelt by the beds of my sleeping children and prayed, I saw angels stepping forward to volunteer for the task, where Jesus assigned them, and they took their posts.
A few weeks later, my husband — whom never dreams, I might add — said he had an eerily real dream where he met an angel in our house, who was assigned the job of protecting one of our children. He was floored, and I felt very validated by his experience.
Things of this natue began to happen a lot over the end of December and the first week of January.
The week of January 7th kicked off a very intense 48 hours that stretched my faith, and resulted in me getting a crash course in deliverance ministry. I... do not yet feel comfortable to talk about the things I witnessed and experienced, but I will say I no longer have ANY doubts about the nature and existence of the spiritual realms, or the fact that we are in the middle of a spiritual war with Jesus and everything He represents on one side, and everything else, no matter how prettily it is packaged to make it palatable (like reiki and crystals and stuff of that nature), on the other.
There is some damn scary stuff out there, folks. Damn scary because it looks OK, it feels Right, tastes Good, but it is a counterfeit, and not just any counterfeit, but one designed to snare and enslave us to the dark. 😢 Seriously: if you take nothing else from me today, if you have been involved in esoteric or the occult, or tried New Age therapies, take some time and ask God what the Truth is about such things. Please, for the love of all that is Holy and Just... please.
But... God uses it all for Good. ❤️ The rest of the week I spent deep in worship and prayer, and the Holy Spirit of God spoke deeply to my heart on what sorts of spiritual ‘housecleaning’ was needed. I ultimately burned many esoteric and ‘New Age-y’ books I’d collected over the years, I was led to clear my home of artifacts and jewelry (many of them gifts, I am sad to say) that had spiritual baggage attached to them. The spooky part of this entire process was that I would enter a room in my home, and ask for the Holy Spirit to reveal what needed to go, and my hands were led to things I never even knew were there...! The first time that happened, I sat back in awe... and continued following where I was led.
And on Sunday the 13th, incidentally the Holy celebration of Jesus’ baptism by John the Baptist, I, too, was baptised. ❤️ It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life... I could feel Jesus there with me, and as I was raised from the water, I could feel Him setting Right all the things inside me that had been tainted or compromised by things associated with the occult (like reiki, which I’d been accepting for its ‘health benefits’ for the last five years), emotional wounds I’d carried, and things of that nature. I felt renewed in a way I haven’t felt in a very, very long time.
Last night, I sat down to play my whistles, and as I closed my eyes to fully enjoy the music, I was gifted with this beautiful vision of Jesus hiking up His robes and dancing to the tunes I played. 😍 My heart leapt with Joy.
I am excited to see what the coming days hold.
