Recently, on a show taping, we were talking about the supernatural and how there is such a need for a supernatural God in the End Times. Like the Bible says to do, we stirred up our faith by talking about the times we have experienced a supernatural event. It’s necessary to do that… because sometimes we get dull in our spiritual senses!
If there’s one thing we need in the Last Days, it’s a sharp awareness of the fact that we are spiritual beings living in a temporary body. One day we will have an eternal, glorified body just as the Lord does, but for today, we need to know how to break through the natural realm we live in temporarily and touch the supernatural which is for our benefit, protection and understanding of our todays!
Let me tell you about a time when Jim and I were in Moravian Falls, North Carolina in a little cabin that has been fondly dubbed “the prophet’s cabin.” We had been in a meeting earlier in the evening where angelic visitations were the topic, and before retiring for the night, the speaker had prayed for all of us to have a supernatural angelic visitation.
Now, angelic visitations were not unusual in Biblical days. In fact, they are written throughout the Bible in numerous accounts. There are guardian angels, protective angels, warring angels, and my favorite: ministering angels. Hebrews 1:14 says about angels: “Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” So, angelic visitations should be common to those who are saved!
Back to my story. That night in Moravian Falls, I really, really wanted to have an angelic visitation. I believed the word of the prophet who prayed for us all, and I wanted a visitation! In fact, I stayed up most of the night praying and waiting for a visitation until 3:30 a.m., I went to bed spent – yet my prayers seemingly went unanswered. I was so disappointed, but not for long.
Sometime during the night, I began to have a full-on conversation with angels who were showing me things to come. I remember standing in a tabernacle watching kids practice a ‘human video’ and the angels came and fell on their faces and cried “holy, holy, holy!” Then one precious angel gave me a wink and a nod and was gone!
When I woke up, I was so excited! I told Jim “let me tell you what the angels showed me and what they told me!” …to which he replied, “no, let me tell YOU what you heard and saw.” It seems I had talked out loud in my sleep in vivid detail about everything that had been going on in my dream!
Years after that visitation, I remember standing in the new tabernacle we were building for our Master’s Commission kids and I heard the voice of the Lord say, “this is what I showed you in your dream!”
I don’t want anyone to ever think that seeking the supernatural just for the sake of phenomenon is what I’m talking about because you must be discerning of every spirit! Here’s why: if they are not sent by God to have a mission as God’s angels do, then they are fallen angels with the purpose to deceive. There are numerous accounts in the Bible of those kind of angels sent from Satan as well! Remember, Satan himself is a fallen angel.
But as the Times of Trouble come in the Last Days, I believe we can and should call upon the Lord to send HIS angels to do HIS work in this earth with HIS people.
Have you had an angelic visitation? I’d like to hear about it, and others will be strengthened in their faith by your testimony. The Bible says we will overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.
Let’s get talking and telling of the wonderful works of God!
Love,
Lori
I have ordered food but I was wondering where will I get water in time of trouble. Is there an easy way to store water for long lengths. How long does water last stored in bottles. Should I get chlorine? I live in subdivision in Charlotte. Thanks and God bless
Hi Kathy sorry for the delay in responding to you. Here’s some info on water storage. I hope this helps. Please see the link below for the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) document of disinfecting water.
http://water.epa.gov/drink/emerprep/emergencydisinfection.cfm
Keep in mind two things:
1) bleach loses strength over time. So, perhaps putting “a bit” more in is a good thought. However, too much more does no additional good/benefit. So, “more is better” per se, is NOT true in this case.
2) Do not “splash” bleach in barrels. The efficacy of the chlorine will “blow off” and the chlorine gas will be released prematurely (loss of strength).
So, here’s how to fill a barrel…: fill the barrel, or other, with about 2″ of water. STOP. Add required amount of chlorine (plus a bit more). STOP. Lower the hose or other filling mechanism to the level of the water/chlorine and resume filling. DO NOT SPLASH water into the barrel/vessel. FILL to the top… STOP!
This method enables the “best” mix of chlorine and water.
NOTE: If you fill the barrel with water, then add chlorine, it will not mix properly, and you will have micro growth inside the barrel.
Check water every 4-6 months for 1) color/cleanliness, 2) evaporation. Top it up accordingly with “good chlorine/water mix.
NOTE: Seychelle products remove chlorine (and many other things). So, if/when you need to drink this water, be sure to run it through your Seychelle bottle, pitcher, other…
Hi Everyone!
I have really enjoyed reading each and every account where angels have intervened for your safety or even when they just wanted to encourage you. I know that in the Revelation Days ahead, the ministry of angels will be even more active… and how we need them!
God bless you all and keep you in the shadow of His wings!
Love,
Lori
I would like to tell one more instance in my life where I believe I had angelic visitation. I was a young woman with 2 small children. I was fixing a simple dinner of homemade soup and sandwiches. 3 men knocked on my door and this is what they said. We are travelors on a long journey. We would like to know if you will feed us. Since my husband was not at home I told them I would feed them on the porch. After the meal, the man in the middle of the other two. Looked at me. He had the most piercing blue eyes. It was as though he could see into my soul. He said, woman, you don’t know what you have done here this day. You have helped us today and one day we will help you. Not long after that we moved to the country. I was driving to work one day. There were 10 foot ditches on either side of the road. I was driving way to fast. The road was iced and it was raining. I lost control of the car. I remember seeing the look of terror in a families eyes as I just missed their vehicle. I was going head on towards a pole but hit the ditch going about 80 or 90 mph. The first impact bent the car into. The car became airborne and was tossing in the air.I remember being quite high up. All I had time to do was pray Jesus help. In mid-air it was as tho something caught that car and straightened it up. In the air. There was a field on the other side of the ditch. My car felt as tho someone placed it on that field. It did not come down with a thud. But was gently placed on the ground without even a bump. Like it was a feather. When my husband talked to the man about could the car be saved afterwards. The man looked at him and said I am sorry the person in this accident must have died. He said no, she is just a little shaken up with some bruises and a bump on her head. Could it be that those men who came to my house were angels. I think so. Their manner was different. They didn’t have robes on. But there was just something about them. The atmosphere around them seemed holy. The shortest prayer I have ever prayed. Jesus help. Our God is a God who is not far off. A prayer does not have to be lengthly and long to get God’s attention. Just since and from the heart. Remember he is just a prayer away
Several months before I was diagnoised with metatstatic breast cancer I had a visitation from Angels. I was asleep yet awake and they were taking me closer and closer to angels singing…It didnt last long and then I found myself back in my bed awake but fully aware that I had been somewhere other than my bed, at least 4 giant angels in white robes areound me taking me toward more angels and then were singing. Im thinking perhaps this was to comfort me that JESUS was with me in the test of my faith and my health I was soon to expericence. ITs been 2 1/2 yrs since and I give God the Glory and stand on HIS WORLD for total healing. I look around me at others with cancer and tho it no picnic I am indeed blessed and share my testimony whenever He leads me. I overcome by the blood of the lamb and my testimony ! Praise GOD.
Lori,
Years ago when my middle granddaughter was 4..She loved singing all the songs we sang at Church. her favorite was “I lift Your Name on High”..One afternoon we were sitting outside playing in the pool.Her and I, sat on the steps and she started her singing, it always touched my heart..And the Angels love to hear songs of out Lord and Savior..While singing we both saw the Angel hovering above our pool house, awesome in size and brown gold-ish robe flowing he was just listening I was startled at first and my granddaughter just said, he’s the Angel I always see when I sing, so outside when she swims and plays she has seen this Angel.It was a moment I will never forget..And in the blink of an eye he was gone..
Hi Everyone!
This is so exciting! I love to read how the angels have made themselves real to all of you. You know, we are really going to need to have our spiritual senses exercised in the days to come, so that we can make it through whatever we have to make it through! Angels are real, and they are just a breath away.
Keep telling your testimonies! Some day, someone who may not know the Lord may read about these experiences and be drawn to Him because of them. Remember, it’s the goodness of God that leads to repentance. When people understand the love and care God pours out on those who are His, they can’t resist Him!
Love,
Lori
Lori,
I don’t think i have ever had an angelic visit but years ago i use to have dreams about the tribulation time, my mother was in shock about it and talked to several pastors about this and they all agreed i should go to someone who could interpret what the dreams mean, they were just so real to me, i truley believe God was showing me things to come in the future. i never did get some one to tell me what my dreams mean but it sure would be nice to know what they meant. maybe someday someone will be able to help me with them.
Hi Lori, my own encounters with angels have been perceiving rather than actual seeing – so far. 20 years ago the Lord spoke to me as I drove along a road out looking for work. He said I am going to move in that valley. The valley was 2 miles away in a rural district which I didn’t know at all. I now live in that valley, and 8 months ago I was walking near the place God spoke, I reminded Him of what He said. I returned home, a walk of 3 miles, and suddenly as I looked up at one of the hill sides surrounding my valley I knew there were thousands of angels around me – everywhere. I continued walking, and not being sure what this meant asked God what to do. I remembered that they have as one of their duties to help us, so prayed for God to release them to bring salvation to all the people of this valley, by whatever means they could. I neared home I found the presence of heaven all about me, the very presence of God was like the air we breathe, all of heaven is filled with Him; it was incredibly invigorating and life giving, and there were so many angels everywhere! I passed an old Methodist chapel, now converted into a home. I sensed two angels posted on either side, they were different to the others about me. It seemed they were waiting for something. The nearer I got to my home the more congested the heavenly realm became, it was like a busy day in town, pushing past so many people.
I FEEL I HAD AN ANGEL TALK TO ME, I had ordered a beautiful wicker mirror, I culd hardly wait for it to come in, It took several days the excitement was building, It finally came and was as beautiful as I had imagined. I was cleaning house when a voice said, I WANT YOU TO TAKE THAT MIRROR TO YOUR SISTER. I IGNORED IT, again it said I want you to take the mirror to your sister, I said nooooo, Again it said take it to your sister, I was so upset, I put it in the car and went to her house, She came to the door and had been crying. I told her I don’t know why but I was told to bring this to you. She pulled it out and looked and the tears started, I asked her what was wrong, she said i was praying this morning and I told the Lord, Lord you have forgotten me and you don’t know who I am. When I pulled out the mirror and saw my self it was like God telling me, I see you like the reflection looking back at you, HE DOES KNOW WHO I AM.
2 weeks before my great-grandmother died I was staying at moms house, I was sleeping in the room my great grandmother Elizabeth was in. She had trouble breathing at night. She always prayed every nite out loud. This night was different than when I heard her prayers at nite as a child. I shared the same bedroom as a child with her. She prayed God just this one night, let me sleep without smothering. That’s what she called it. I always remembered her labored breathing at night. I woke up in the nite, it was to quite. I looked over and standing in mid-air I saw an angel in a white robe, with a strip of saphire blue about 3/4 the way down his robe. He had short dark hair. I was seeing his profile. He was standing directly in front of her.Looking towards her as she slept like a baby. When she woke up the next morning she was so excited. She said I slept like a baby, I didn’t smother at all. For the next 2 weeks she would tell me that every corner of the room she would see Jesus with a lamb. I never told her about the angel. I knew God was about to take her home. I was just 18 or 19 when this happened. When I was 19 I awoke from sleep hearing someone call my name. A glowing saphire Rod was held out to me. I didn’t know what it meant. I actually went to pray throughout the night. Knowing what I know now, I would that I had answered hear am I Lord. Do I believe in angels, yes I do. Do I worship angels, no never. All worship, power and praise be to our God who sits on the throne
In this dream, I was in a field, looking at this very large church. Suddenly a volcano began to rise up from the ground behind it. People were running and screaming in all directions. Sheer panic. Lava and brimstone began to flow. I could hear the screams. I looked away from the church and saw a green grassy knoll. I knew I could run there for safety. But I had to make a decision. Would I run to safety or to the church in danger and save the things of God. I made my decision and ran towards the church. All the while hearing the screams of people. Inside the church I found a small bottle of oil, I took that. I found an antique picture of Christ, it seemed very valuable, I took that and the third item was a star of David. I took that. I ran to the green grassy knoll. Facing the church, I looked to my right and saw 7 black christians. They had their heads bowed in prayer. I didn’t understand I was with them on the green grassy knoll but not of them. I thought I should be with them. I believed in God’s holy Son. But for me there opened up in the ground a pool of water. It seemed to be alive. Moving. It was just wide enough to fit my body into, and deep enough to submerge myself in. I knew I was supposed to go down into this living water and hold my breath as long as I could. I went down into the water, knew I would have to come up for air, I was concerned about being burned with the lava and brimstone. The first thing I noticed when I came up for air, I was not being burned. I looked to my right where the christians were and instead of having their heads bowed in prayer, they had their hands raised and were praising God. I looked towards the church, Just a huge field now, but something different. There was a multitude of angels with brooms. Some were smiling, one seemed to know me, he smiled and waved directly at me. There were keeping the path clear to the Christians and to me.It reminded me of what I thought the Red Sea must have been like. But instead of walls of water, it was walls of fire and brimstone. The angels were protecting us. I didn’t understand some of this dream. I did find out later my great grandmother escaped Germany as a young child and arrived by boat in America. Her sister, brother and her. Jewish children unaccompanied by adults. I learned later about the Jewish type of baptism from study. I may mispell it, but a Mikvah was what I submerged myself in in the dream. Sorry so lengthy
I had a dream that I was in the Valley, between 2 mountains. There was a man there who smiled and began to sing. The blood that Jesus shed for me.way back on Calvalry. Then he pointed and I looked. I saw a man hanging on a cross, not like the pictures we see. This man was marred horribly, hardly recognizable as a man, a bloody pulp hanging on a cross. Then the man sang, it reaches to the highest mountain. Once more he pointed. I looked to the top of the mountain and I saw a man in a white robe on the top. A stream of blood began to flow down the mountain to the valley where I was, as the man sang, it flows to the lowest valley. Then he sang the blood that Jesus shed for me, it will never, ever lose its power. Then he made a strong arm, like God’s got you covered. Angels are sent to minister to those that shall be heirs of salvation. I will post another dream

Joel,your angel visit sounds alot like mine. Many years ago I was out walking my dog when she pulled hard in the direction of “who knows what she saw”. I had major back surgery several years ago before that which left my legs weak and made it impossible for me to get up on my own from sitting on the ground. My dog’s pull caused me to fall so there I was holding onto my dog and unable to get up. One minute nobody was around to help and the next there was a man and woman asking if they could help me get up. I started to explain to them why my legs wouldn’t allow me to get up on my own when the woman simply said, “We know.” After helping me up, the man even knew the correct way to stand behind me and lift me up by placing his arms under my arms, they started to walk away. I turned around to face the direction they walked off in and nobody was there. My angels just simply appeared out of nowhere and disappeared after helping me! What a blessing!!!
Hello,
I’d like to tell one of my stories about an angel visitation. One dark night a few years ago my son and I went to the grocery store. It was on a dark road (no streetlights). On the way home we were coming down that road at the speed limit of 45 MPH. All of a sudden in front of us in the center of the road was a BIG truck. It was an old truck, one that sits up high and has the big iron or steel bumper on back. It had no lights on. I guess it was stalled. By the time I saw it in the light of my headlights I was too close to it to stop and just closed my eyes…All of a sudden I felt myself (or an Angel) turn the wheel very very quickly. It was a hard turn to the right. The car swayed and I opened my eyes and saw the big steel bumper passing within inches of the drivers side of my car. I struggled to stop the car and finally did. My son was speachless and said to me “Mom we were almost killed just now.” He said if it hadn’t been for expert driving we would be dead. I told him (while leaning my head on the steering wheel and shaking) Son….I can’t drive that good. There is no way I turned that wheel like a pro. I told him an angel must have been there and saved us. I truly believe that because I really can’t drive that well.
Before 911 – it was some months before. I was helping my mom (she moved to heaven in 2002), and I was standing in the kitchen. I was under a lot of stress and prayed that the veil would be opened (something like that). I looked out my kitchen window. Up in the sky was a huge angel (angels are not small) just very intently looking at me. I remember he sparkled – I’ll have to check what I wrote about him before I say anything more incorrectly. The Lord knew 911 was coming and that my mom would be moving to heaven the next June. I remember how this angel sparkled.
I want to tell you how God used me I believe to save 3 children . This happened the 27 th of August 2012 . I was out doing a few things for the lady I work for . I had just left the post office, instead of going the way I all ways do. I went the back way . I was stopped behind two cars in line to turn in to a school . It was around 3:15 in a 25 mph school zone . When a lady hit me going 45 to 50 mph . I was ,or a angel was pressing so hard on the brakes I didn’t hit the very small car in front of me that had two small children in it . The police report said the lady was drinking and on drugs . She gave a statement that she was on her way to pick up her children from school , when she saw the line of cars and didn’t know why they were stopped. I thank God he put me there . I know he will take care of me . I wasn’t Hurd bad . My jeep was .
Lori, I haven’t had an angelic visitation, but I’ve been wanting to write you to let you know how much I enjoyed your book. You’ve gone through more than anyone I’ve ever known, but just look at you! God has shaped you into an incredible woman of faith. Thank you for your honesty, Lori. Although I have never undergone an abortion, I believe your story would be such an encouragement to women who have.
Please encourage Jim to let you talk more. I appreciate all he has to say – and I LOVE his guests’ insights – but whenever you speak, my spiritual ears really perk up. Have you ever considered having a show of your own just for women?
God’s blessings,
Jeanette Taylor – Saginaw, MI
