EDITOR ? Joel 2:30 says: “And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.”
When you are born again, your spirit is recreated and you are spirit filled, therefore let me reiterate this to you again that the realm of the prophetic is for everyone definitely everyone brethren.
Hearing God should be the thing that helps you to be humble to the last bit, why? Because scripture says we have the mind of Christ.
Visions are of God and they are among the most advanced stages of the prophetic.
They show the depth of sensitivity one has gained to the spiritual things. The above scripture says I will show signs and wonders, that is God speaking on that scripture, he is solely responsible for disbursing visions.
To the majority of people this dimension starts as imaginery or flashes probably.
To assert credibility of this ability in early stages, it instils a profound conviction upon your spirit and a consistent concurrence with scriptural incidences.
In scripture people like Ezekiel, Isaiah and least favourably Balaam experienced this prophetic enhancement expansively.
In the Old Testament these people were referred to as seers. The best way to develop this gift is through intensive prayer sessions and study of the word of God lest the enemy may take advantage.
I say this because I have seen people operating in this gift with errancy because they lack consistence in the word of God Usually this grows more quickly in people with an intercessory passion.
At more graduated stages, the visions might take longer periods occurring and they become more clearer, these are called trances now. You encounter this mostly in people who are in the office of a Prophet, but remember that I said the prophetic is for every believer.
In the book of Acts during the conversion of Paul there was a believer called Ananias who had this endowment, the same with Peter during the conversion of Cornelius.
Visions can become so gross to an extend that physically, there can be evidence that what was happening in the vision was happening in the natural as well.
For an instance, there’s a brother who saw himself preaching in a vision with a Bible on the pulpit, when the vision ended his Bible just fell before him and he was standing sweating all over.
In this realm you would have totally synced with your spirit that your participation is wholly-unified now in the spiritual things.
The only thing special in all this is the word of God. In this the more you get developed you will see that the angelic dimension becomes more visibly pronounced as well, why? because they are ministering spirits unto the heirs of salvation. We do not walk by sight, but by faith, which is in the Word.
Your revelation of the future is definite because you have the ministry of the holy spirit, ministers are there for the perfection of the saints, that’s why this apostle is reaching you so that you begin to appreciate this realm and use it to you advantage.
