An International Fellowship of Spirit-Empowered Believers
Glo Held "Taken into the heavenlies"
Good-God Mornin! I had a dream/vision last night that takes my breath away and makes me want to weep with joy...I dreamt that I was praising God but it was a very feeble attempt [my whole heart wasnt in it.] This is unusual because usually I am a crazy in love with God praiser/worshipper. Some background: lately I have been in a "going through' period in my walk with God. I have pretty much stopped going to church on n off for about 9months ago-because I felt like it there was just religion going on and not what God intended church to be.[I dont say this in judgement] The only thing I miss is worship. I love to sing praises to Him! God is taking me to a new place-this I know. So back to dream... I am praising but my hands are barely up in the air and then I can feel God's hand on my arms and He is whispering in my ear saying 'higher Glo higher my child 'and gently lifting my arms.higher there is slight resistance on my part but He keeps whispering in my ear "higher-higher' and I obey to the point where I have lifted my arms so high in praise that I feel one with the God and the air/atmosphere like just melting into the air[hard to explain] and am looking up and I see the sky open and such intense light and Love my breath is taken away and I am lifted off the ground and am raised up,up,up feeling so light-feeling just one with the Father and then Nothing-it all just stopped.!!!.I remember thinking Am I dead? Have I died? but all at the same time in such awe and my breath taken away and iIfeltweeping....I am crying now...such a wellspring of emotions...I didnt want to leave I wanted to stay in that light and love....well thats all ...I am stilll in awe and taken aback...please pray and let me know what God may say to you. And oh Mr Virkler-thanks ever so much for starting this-site-what does'Koinonia" mean? havent read your book but have journaled a bit with God and your website has helped me with some tips to journaling. Thanks again my brother in Christ! In His love and light,Glo

Reminds me of what John Crowder calls an ecstacy.

Hi Glo...it sounds to me that God may have been communing with you in your dream...especially if you felt refreshed upon waking! I have had those dreams when life seemed too heavy and overwhelming that only God could intervene and upon waking I knew in my spirit that God had ministered to me.
Remember that Solomon received his gift of wisdom during a dream!
Psalm 127 says "It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of [anxious] toil-for He gives [blessings]to His beloved IN sleep. AMP.
I believe God is carrying you during this difficult time in your life!
(One key phrase that stood out to me in your dream is stay in the light [truth of God's word]).
You are loved!

Sounds to me like you got taken to Heaven in your dream. The catalyst was Praise and Worship.

Hi Glo,
I feel the Lord is speaking to you in this dream, for such a time as this. Desiring for you to go higher and higher with him. That He is desiring to lift you up out of the heap of ash that you may enter into his redeeming presence. I feel He wants you to know He is able to carrry you through this time in your life but not apart from Him. I feel You need to respond in obedience to the voice of the Holy Spirit and He will lead you to victory as you begin to do this He will bring greater revelations to you.

Wow! That would be like dying and going to heaven! Makes me think of "He inhabits the praises of His people" and the higher we lift our hands the more surrendered and yielded we are and the more we worship and praise Him.

Hi Glo, your dream is pure Love!. Thanks for sharing Jesus in it. I was feeling depressed and heavy spirited. God spoke saying :Praise Me." My reply to Him was "I don't feel like it."
His answer was swift in coming- - "I didn't ask you to feel like it. Just DO it."
Very feebly I uttered under my breath, "I praise You." "Say it again, He replied." I repeated the words over and over "I praise You." Suddenly the 'stinking feelings' left, and my heart was lifted in true praise and adoration! It was later that I heard Jesus say - "I don't live in your feelings. I live in your spirit. And remember that I live in your praises. Lift your heart to Me and I answer you with Myself!"

She had the right word... Wow! adding, what a moment to envy. He heee.. Kidding... really, I know how he feels. When the LORD does this, it is to teach us something. He definitely is calling you to a higher level in His Spirit. This means... GRADUATION! The Lord is showing you that you are ready to move to a higher level than you have ever known before. Trust me, just when you think you have gone as far as you can, there more to receive in the LORD. All I got to say is, when you start climbing higher in the Spirit realm, "Trust God"... And do not fear! he will not let you drown.
Let me share with you my reason He took me into the spirit realm for a visitation. The dream was Jesus sitting at the head of the table. He looked at me, and all the sudden I saw his face. I said... your so lowly! Then, it was like He took me into his eyes. It was soooo beautiful there. After that, I felt myself pulling out. I was saying to the LORD, It's so beautiful here, I didn't want to leave. I won't forget that as long as I live. be sure to keep a balance of His word and Spirit. you are going places for the LORD. Meaning, He is going to use you mightily in time.
So you wonder what was it the LORD was wanting to teach me? Meekness! :}
