Have you ever wondered what happens when we pray in the Spirit? When our mind doesn’t understand what we’re saying, who does? And what do they do when they hear this supernatural intercession?

I love hearing stories of supernatural encounters and the last time we offered free access for a limited time to our Everyday Angels training series, testimonies poured in! So in this article I’m thrilled to share two things with you. First, I want to let you know that our Worldwide Video Event for October is Everyday Angels! So if you missed it last time it was available, now is your chance to join us: register free online here.

Secondly, I wanted to share with you a few of these amazing experiences with the Lord of Hosts and His heavenly hosts. You will be so inspired to hear what some of these angels said and did and I hope the examples encourage you to press in for ALL that God has for you.

Many times we receive messages from God through our dreams, but we don’t recognize or understand them. Scripture reveals that God speaks over and over again while we sleep, we just aren’t aware of it (Job 33:14-18). For example, often if a dream feels dark, we automatically dismiss it. If we are being chased in our dream or if we are somehow under attack or feel threatened, we assume the dream is just our own fears manifesting at best, or the enemy influencing us at worst.

While not as common today, many of our biblical heroes interacted with angels. For example, Daniel engaged various angels in visions by day and in dreams by night (Dan. 7–12). Similarly, Zechariah had a long-ranging conversation with “the angel who was speaking to him” that lasted no less than six full chapters (Zech. 1–6).

Have you ever wanted a sneak peek inside the members-only forum of our Hearing God Through Your Dreams module? We have lots of amazing dreamers and budding interpreters in our group and I’ve asked permission from one of them to share her exceptional dream work with you.

Just because a dream is frightening doesn’t mean it’s not from God. When the Lord established His covenant with Abram, the Bible says that as deep sleep came upon the patriarch, “terror and great darkness fell upon him” as well (Gen. 15:12). Likewise, when Jacob awoke from his dream of the heavenly ladder, he, too, was afraid (Gen. 28:17).

Some people wonder, Why should we see angels? Why learn about angels and how could we actually work together with them anyway?

Like most of you, we are now watching our pastor livestream his sermons into our home as the new way of doing church. Pastor Joel recently preached an excellent message on Walking Fearlessly, sharing faith-building Scriptures reminding us that God is our refuge and we are more than conquerors in Him. Joel also shared very transparently about his lifelong struggle with anxiety, and how just a few years ago, he experienced breakthrough in this area and now lives free from panic attacks. Hallelujah!

Back in January some friends at church mentioned the Coronavirus. I don’t usually watch the news and hadn’t heard of Covid-19, so I was only half-joking when I asked, “Do you need to drink beer to get that?”

Fast forward two months and we are all now keenly aware of exactly what that word means. While it is easy to look at the natural realm and feel anxious, God calls us to set our mind on the spirit realm instead (Rom. 8:6). We’re not to focus on the news and what is seen in this physical world, but instead we are to seek the things above and look at what is unseen (Col. 3:1-3; 2 Cor. 4:18).
 

We have just returned from our ministry trip to New Zealand and God did so much during our time there. Leo and I conducted workshops on the sacred supernatural: Hearing God Through Your Dreams, Everyday Angels, and 4 Keys to Hearing God’s Voice. At every event people had incredible encounters with Jesus and the company of Heaven and learned how to receive Holy Spirit’s ministry to them even while they sleep. So exciting!
