Invisible Person in My Room
This is possibly the most amazing encounter I have ever had of the other realm. This involved both a supernatural encounter and an answer to prayer, so is included on both pages.
In 1995 I needed to find a bigger house to live in. I was recently separated with my six children in my care. We were offered 6 weeks in holiday accomodation. Then I got a rental house for 3 months. I was becoming weary of all the moving. I knew of a big 4-bedroom house that had recently become empty. I asked God for it. Found out it already had a prospective tenant, but the landlord said he would let me know if it didn't work out. A couple of weeks went by, and he called me back, said he had not heard from the other person at all, and I could have it. That in itself was an awesome answer to prayer and the children and I were thrilled!
That wasn't the end of it, though. We had not been there a week when a "for sale" sign went up in the front yard! I became quite stressed, wondering how I was going to keep finding housing for six children.
Over the next few nights, I tossed and turned, thinking about it. On the third night, as I lay worried, and was just starting to get drowsy, I became aware that there was a Person standing just inside my bedroom door. He was invisible and yet very real. Warmth and love emanated from this Presence, and I was drawn strongly as if by a magnet. I couldn't help myself. I was a bit scared, because the Person was invisible, and I tried to pull back, but the magnetism was too strong for me. As I moved towards Him, I felt a wind, and something that felt like leaves, as one might feel on a windy day underneath a tree in autumn, blowing at me, really quite strongly. I found myself repeating over and over again, involuntarily, "Wind of the Spirit, blow on me."
Next thing I knew, I was awake and it was bright morning. I felt completely at peace and no longer worried about the house. We continued to live there for the next year until I made the decision to move away to a city. At that time, the landlord told me that no one had even showed an interest in buying the house!
A Spooky Energy Form
I was visiting a friend's house in the early 1980's. As I walked into their kitchen, I walked through an energy source that appeared to be standing there in the room. Dumbfounded, I turned round and walked back over the same spot, but it was gone. I cannot explain what this was.
Invisible Touch on Shoulder - First
It was very early in the morning. I was in a moment of great stress and tension, around the year 2012. I walked into my bedroom. As I did, someone put their hand gently on my shoulder - but there was no one visibly there. However, I was immediately filled with a great peace. I went back to bed untroubled and fell asleep easily.
The Cats that Stared
I was 17 or 18, newly married, and sitting on the couch alone at home. I had recently received the gift of praying in tongues. I began to pray this way. Suddenly, I felt spooked, and opened my eyes. The two black cats, Tinkerbell and TC2, who had been sleeping on the couch peacefully, were both sitting bolt upright staring at me! They didn't look scared, but their staring definitely startled me! I wonder what they saw when I prayed?
Hit by a Bolt of Light
I was playing the piano at church one morning in the late 1980s. The people were singing very enthusiastically. At the end of one particular song, I felt strongly compelled to carry on playing spontaneously. As I did so, a bolt of light came suddenly from above and went right through me twice. Very powerful the first time, a little less the second time. It was warm, beautiful, like an electric shock but with no pain. Tears came to my eyes and I was barely able to carry on playing, as I was so overwhelmed. It was so bright and powerful that I thought everyone must have seen it. After the service I mentioned to the songleader and minister how wonderful I thought that Light was, but neither of them had seen it.
Angels Talking to Each Other
Some time around 2018, I awoke suddenly in the night in the spirit realm to the awareness that someone was lying full length alongside me, along my back. I could feel the pressure all along my body. They weren't hurting me. Then I realized there was another being in the room, standing inside the doorway. What really startled me was that these two beings then conversed together in a language I did not recognize. I could audibly hear them just as I would hear any other person talk. The one inside the door I knew to be demonic and its voice was hissy and snake-like, but the being lying beside me had a pleasant, cultured voice. I felt fear about this new unknown and asked Holy Spirit to come and help me, and immediately came out of the experience. The Bible refers to angels having their own language (1 Corinthians 13).
Angelic Space Saucer
23-24th July 2015. I had been having a restless night. In the early hours of the morning, around 2am, I had been praying in the Spirit (tongues). Suddenly, I was caught up with two men - angels? One on either side of me. The one on the left seemed to be wearing a white robe and had curly blonde or grey hair. The one on my right had short dark hair. He was wearing a brown robe.
I was taken up into space between them. I don't remember much about how I got there, but I did notice the stars around us, and pretty floaty spacey things around us.
We came to what appeared to be a big saucer-like structure, with quite high concave sides, and we went down into it. It had no roof - was just open to space above and appeared to be just sitting there in space. On the floor of the saucer it was like the earth, with grass and turf. There were a few people sitting at computer terminal-like things, although not quite like ours on earth.
The angels, or one of them, said to me something very like, "Now is the time for the wealth of the nations to be released to the earth".
They took me to one of the computer terminal things where I had to press something. Apparently my pressing that did the releasing of that wealth. Then we turned round and began to walk back up the sides of the saucer. I began a conversation with the angel on my right. The one on the left just continued walking along in silence, although I was happy to talk to him, too. I asked the one on the right what his name was. He said in a conversational way that he was not supposed to reveal his name to the people of the earth. For some reason I wasn't surprised by that and accepted it.
It seemed my whole purpose in going there was just to push that button to release that wealth. We got to the top of the side of the saucer, and I looked down and saw the pretty stars and the spacey floaty things, and impulsively, I went, "Wheee!" and leaped off the edge, into space. Apparently they leaped with me. I floated down amongst the spacey things, and next thing I knew, I was lying awake in bed. Already the memory of what was said was fading.
An Armoured Being
Just before 7am, 25 May 2020, as I was waking I found myself in the spirit realm. I realized someone or something was in my bedroom to the right of my bed. As usual, my defences came up and I started addressing it in the name of Jesus. My bedroom door was shut, but I could hear running as if the door wasn't there. I was also praying in tongues while using the name of Jesus.
I could feel a warm pressure on my right arm and I wanted to shake it off. I heard soft cries, like a woman's dolly-type voice going, "Ohhhh! Ohhh!" as if under attack. I made a huge effort to lunge myself to the right, with the intention of getting up to open the door.
At that moment, I saw a person beside me. Was around 6ft tall or a little more. "It" was wearing a long garment or cloak, but I could not see right to its feet. It fit snugly and was made of an armour-like material, having a distinctly fancy quality although in one sense was also plain. There were fine patterns on it. The being's head was covered in what looked like an armoured mask, with slanting gaps for eyes just like Spiderman's. It was holding a weapon. Again hard to describe. A sword, perhaps, but with a finely made handle in its hilt - so fine as to almost be like a very fine netting. The entire person and its weapon were dark in colour. Keeping in mind, my bedroom was dark. The being began striding towards other end of my bed, and I demanded, "I command you in the name of Jesus, what is your name?" To my dismay, it carried right on walking around the end of my bed, coming up the left side and stood there for a moment looking down at me. I could see it quite clearly (hence able to describe some detail). It did not answer my question, which puzzled me. I was aware of its power to wield that sword, but it did not try to hurt me at all. It's expression seemed stern and business-like, as though he had more pressings things to do. The being just seemed to turn and stride off the other way, disappearing. I was wide awake in the dark.
I managed to collect my rather startled wits together and turned the light on to check the time. It had just gone 7am.
I then wanted to know, whose side was it on? Why didn't it obey my request to know its name? I asked the Lord about it. Later on I was looking out the back window and thought of the verse about angels, "They do His bidding." HIS, not ours (Psalm 103:20).
Invisible Touch on Shoulder - Second
It was late in the year 2017. I had been accused of something. The matter was overwith but I still found myself defending myself over and over again in my head. As I was sitting on the couch one morning starting to do this again, an invisible arm (I sensed it rather than saw it) reached across and touched me gently on my right shoulder. I immediately snapped out of my track of thinking, with an instant reminder that the matter was overwith.
Supernatural Rain
In the late 1980's, my husband and I had spent several hours praying for a lady late into the night. In the morning when I woke up, I realized my hands felt as if they were being rained on. I stretched them out in front of me and sat there marveling. It was just like the feeling of soft rain falling on them and went on for quite a while. In fact, it was when I finally put my hands down that it stopped.
Heavenly Choir
When I was 16, my youth group went to a big youth evening event in a nearby city. There were several hundred people there. There was a time of singing, and suddenly, near the end of of the singing, people began to sing their own praises to the Lord. Out of all those people, singing their own tune and their own words, I could not hear a single voice out of tune - and as an experienced and trained musician, I could tell! The atmosphere and surrounding sky seemed charged with a huge powerful force. It was like listening to a huge, angelic choir, echoing around the sky. I was struck speechless with awe. For the rest of the evening, I was quiet. My mind was completely taken up with that beautiful, powerful time of praise to God.
I kept thinking, what kind of huge power is this that can cause five hundred people to sing their own song and be in tune with each other, all at the same time?
The experience impacted me deeply.
