Stories to Inspire
Our Heavenly inheritance is expanding all the time. Just one of those areas of inheritance has been traveling in our spirit with Holy Spirit to do Kingdom missions. And it’s been an amazing adventure.
But, as we all know, it’s also Biblical to ‘travel’ in our body. Jesus did it, Philip did it, Ezekiel did it, Paul did it… etc. And we even have modern day examples.
A convincing and significant record of these phenomena are recounted in the writings of the Catholic mystics (Remember, that was the only church there was until about 500 years ago). Sadly, we lost many of those Heavenly realities. BUT, what we lost is being regained in this last century. And we’re actually seeing some of this recuperation happen right before our eyes.
Don’t you love it! We’re stepping into that same reality that inspired John to write:
“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.” – I Jn 1:1
These ‘Stories to Inspire’ are of the ‘seen and touched’ kind! Thank God!

Where’s Betty?
It was a Tuesday evening worship service. Betty took her place on the same seat in the front row, where she always sits.
That day there had been a huge and very devastating earthquake in Nepal. So we spent time during worship praying for Nepal.
As I was leading worship and sometime in the middle of our time of prayer, I looked up and realized that Betty wasn’t in her seat. I thought that she may have stepped out for a minute to go to the bathroom. But, ten minutes later she was still gone. I thought to myself, “I hope she’s alright. I’ll ask her later.”
Afterward, Betty was walking around, so I asked her, “Are you ok?”
“Sure, why?”
“You were gone from your seat for a while during worship.”
“No way. I was here the whole time.”
“I thought you may have gone to the bathroom.”
“No, I never left my seat.”
“Ok then, where were you?”
“I was in Nepal, walking the streets. People were bumping into me because they couldn’t see me. I could smell the street life and hear and feel the terror. So, I released the Presence of God… the Peace and Power of Jesus over the people in the streets. Then I came back.”
Even as we talked about it afterward, Betty was completely unaware that she had not only traveled with Holy Spirit in her spirit, but in physical form, also. It was very hard for her to comprehend!
What a deal!! This Heavenly mission with Holy Spirit involved Betty’s spirit AND body! And there’s so much more ahead, for all of us! – LA/TN
