Holy Spirit surprise – travel in the Spirit

I was in a prayer meeting.  We were all praying in tongues.  I suggested that we ask Holy Spirit what He was praying through us and then ask if we could participate with Him.  Within a minute or so, and without warning or any lead-up ‘thought trail’, I found myself ‘flying’ over Northern San Diego County – Vista and then Carlsbad, CA.  I ended up about 150 feet above RC’s house.  I could see the ocean in the distance and I could see down inside his house… but I didn’t ‘go in’.  I was aware of the essence of the ‘burden’ that I was praying in tongues, but didn’t say anything in English.  That lasted a few minutes and then the encounter ended. 

At the end of the prayer meeting I told the group about my very vivid experience and informed them that the tickets were already purchased tickets for my wife and I to travel to SD County in two weeks.  After that point my ‘flying’ encounter got completely ‘sealed off’ to me.  I didn’t even think about it once, until near the end of this story.

My wife and I traveled to SD.  Without any thought of my spiritual ‘flying’ encounter, I called up my friend RC, and invited him and his wife out to dinner.  RC said, “Come over to the house, we’ll talk and then go to dinner afterwards.”  We did… and we had an amazing time.  (In retrospect I realize that our conversation touched the essence of what I prayed about in the encounter.)  We went out to dinner and had two hours of a super good time.  Debbie and I remarked when we drove away, that was probably the most meaningful time we’ve ever had with them. 

Two days later, I was riding in a car with another friend MH, who said, “Isn’t that where RC lives?”  At that moment, the ‘flying’ encounter that I had with Holy Spirit in the prayer meeting two weeks before, suddenly reappeared from my memory.  I quickly exclaimed, “MH, I came here in the Spirit two weeks ago and in our recent time with RC and his wife, we ‘lived out’ essentially everything that I encountered two weeks ago.  Wow!  It all unfolded like the encounter.”

We were both amazed!  Two weeks ahead of time, Holy Spirit had taken me to set some things in place and in motion.  Then He sealed it up, so that memory wouldn’t guide me.  Then two weeks later, after the great time of fellowship was over, God unlocked my memory so that I recalled the encounter and could see the power of traveling in the Spirit and traveling in time. 

Wow! Wow! Wow!  This ‘above the line’ world is so fascinating and captivating.  More Lord! – MLH
