Hear, See, Move ...
According to Revelation 1:10 and 4:1, 2 John heard. We can expect to hear when we are in the Spirit. This is not natural hearing but supernatural. We will hear the Voice of God. This is that same Voice that walked in the Garden with Adam.
There is also a supernatural sense of being able to see. Revelation 4:2 recounts that John saw "a throne" and One sitting "on the throne." The grace (gift) of Discerning of spirits includes the seeing of various things in supernatural realms. Many are the Scriptural accounts of such occurrences of supernatural sight. Many times these experiences are so clear that one does not know if the seeing is natural or supernatural. Other times it is as if one is superimposed over the other. Either way, it is a marvelous experience that leaves one knowing that they have met with the Lord.
Ezekiel 37:1; Revelation 17:3 and 21:10 also reveal to us that we may expect to move in the Spirit. Each records that the person involved was carried away in the spirit to another place (realm) where certain things were seen and/or heard.
Might we still have these experiences today? Yes! Yes! Yes! I'm still looking forward to flying "Phillip Air" one of these days. Remember, he baptized the Ethiopian Treasurer and came up out of the water in a different city.
We are safe in the Spirit. There is absolutely no reason to fear the supernatural when we are in the everlasting arms of God. What is most important is that we seek Him and not the experiences.
Seek Him with all that you are. Then hold on as He draws you into the realms of God and reveals to you the hidden things.
