Greetings!
These are glorious days! Difficult days but glorious days! I am sharing a little bit of an encounter that I had with the Lord in 1980. This was not a dream or a vision but a trance. Trances are a deeper level of awareness then dreams and visions. I have only had this one trance.
Acts 10:10 Then he became very hungry and wanted to eat; but while they made ready, he fell into a trance.
Acts 22:17 "Now it happened, when I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance 18 and saw Him saying to me, 'Make haste and get out of Jerusalem quickly, for they will not receive your testimony concerning Me.'2 Cor 12:2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago-whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows-such a one was caught up to the third heaven. 3 And I know such a man-whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows- 4 how he was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. Definition of Trance: Greek: an ecstasy, ἔκστασις ekstasis, fell upon him. In Acts 11:5 Peter says that in a trance he saw a vision. The word "trance, or ecstasy," denotes "a state of mind when the attention is absorbed in a particular train of thought, so that the external senses are partially or entirely suspended." It is a high species of abstraction from external objects, when the mind becomes forgetful of surrounding things, and is fixed solely on its own thoughts, so that appeals to the external senses do not readily rouse it. The soul seems to have passed out of the body, and to be conversant only with spiritual essences. Thus, Balaam is said to have seen the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance Numbers 24:4, Numbers 24:16; thus Paul, in praying in the temple, fell into a trance Acts 22:17; and perhaps a similar state is described in 2 Cor. 12:2. In the case of Peter, however, there was a supernatural influence that drew his attention away from present objects. In this video I share only a brief overview of this encounter and a few practical things that you can do.
