Introduction

I was raised in a Roman Catholic Church, in a small town in


Lancashire, England. At twenty years of age I was born again
while in a mining camp in Northern Canada through a Brethren
Church minister. I studied at a Brethren Bible School in
Edmonton where I experienced the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
and so attended Pentecostal churches while in Winnipeg. I loved
theology and doctrine and always knew there was more of God
to experience. I answered the call of God on my life to be a
missionary and walked to India. 1 I followed the Word of Faith
teacher John Osteen and was blessed to hear when the Spirit of
God visited Toronto Vineyard Church. Parke and Elizabeth
Horne of Hibiscus Coast New Zealand introduced me to Bethel
Church of Redding, California, USA. Finally I came to understand
the heavens are already opened 2 and that I sat in heavenly
places.3 Bible verses I had always believed but had never
experienced suddenly took on new meaning.

I heard about soaking prayer from Jason Cobb, a New Zealand


missionary, and decided to attend a soaking night held in Harvest
City Church in Hamilton, New Zealand. There I experienced the
Holy Spirit falling heavily upon me like a ten-ton truck pinning me
to the floor for over an hour. The thick heavy presence of God’s
peace filled me. The Spirit wouldn’t leave me till I promised I
would continue to rest in God’s presence the rest of my life. I was
faithful to that promise. I began to experience the Holy Spirit
resting upon me in thick heavy peace continually. Graham Cooke

mentioned he waited on the Lord for nineteen hours one time. So


I began to rest in the Lord for extended periods of time, pushing
the boundaries to twelve hours one time.

Someone explained Ephesians 1:18, “…the eyes of our under-


standing…” referred to the eyes of our imagination. That thought
caused illumination within me. I began to understand how the
Holy Spirit can use pictures to instruct us. I yielded to the
influence of the Holy Spirit who guided my imagination and I
began to experience a lifting of my spirit into heavenly realms.
The Holy Spirit suggested I let go of my earth-bound thoughts
while resting in the Lord and listen to His suggestions. I rested in
the Lord while soaking to “The Longing” by Kimberley and
Alberto Rivera so many times. During the last four songs I
imagined Jesus was risen and walking towards me. He held my
hand and told me to ascend with Him into heaven. I began to
imagine rising in spirit together with Christ into heavenly places.
“If you be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above,
where Christ sits on the right hand of God.”4

What I saw when I ascended in my imagination is recorded within


this book. I kept several diaries recording every encounter I had
over a four year period. The Holy Spirit kept telling me that I
would forget and must write it down. Holy Spirit said that I had to
share these stories with the children in our home as they would
believe. So I drew pictures of what I saw and the Holy Spirit
began to reveal many amazing things. An intimate knowledge of
the Trinity grew as the Holy Spirit taught me through my
sanctified imagination.

4
Colossians 3:1
4

Jesus said eternal life is, “Knowing the only true God and Jesus
Christ who He has sent.”5 This knowledge is the intimate
knowledge that only friends share. The Holy Spirit leads us into
this personal knowledge so that the understanding within the
mind is enlightened. We get to ‘know’ God as a loving Father,
Son and Holy Spirit in such a close manner, as the Holy Spirit
sheds light on the living eternal Word of God.

As I teach students the Bible I often ask the Holy Spirit to give me
an illustration which would explain the point. Having eight
hundred children in our Faith Outreach home, I am often required
to illustrate the point by a scene I encounter in heaven. The
anointing that rested upon me during the testimony times and the
faith the stories inspired in the children, combined with the
assurance it is in accordance with the scriptures convinced me
they are of God. Jesus said, “And they shall be all taught of
God”6 The Holy Spirit teaches us through our sanctified
imagination, dreams and visions. 7 Other teachers also call it,
“Our sanctified imagination.”

Scripturally Based

The following are some of the scriptures that encouraged me to


keep seeking instruction and revelation from the Holy Spirit.

John 6:45

John 14:26, 1 Corinthians 2:13.

Jesus said when we are born again we can see the kingdom of
God.8 We can experience what unbelievers don’t see in the Spirit
realms. We can enter realms of God’s peace, love and joy, 9 and
experience the wind of the Holy Spirit blowing around us. 10 These
are experiences Jesus taught us we can share. “I am the Door,
by me if any man enter-in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and
out, and find pasture.”11 “We look not at the things which are
seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which
are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are
eternal.”12

“We have the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I


believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and
therefore speak.”13 I believed and so I write what I see. The Holy
Spirit encouraged me one time saying, “You have faith which
others don’t exercise.” “Except you be converted, and become as
a little child, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” 14 I
believe and as I have a Peter Pan type of imagination I began to
see. In the movie “Hook” the children are all eating a banquet of
lush goodies, but the older Peter Pan could not enjoy it as he
couldn’t see the food. It was when he started to imagine he was
throwing food at the other boys that suddenly his eyes were
opened and he could see the feast spread before him.

Same with the apostles, for Jesus said, “Blessed are your eyes,
for they see; and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto
you, that the prophets and righteous have desired to see the
things which you see.”15 Though they were with Jesus for over
three years often they could not see who He was. Also His own
brothers who lived with Him for twenty years could not see He
was the Christ.16 How blind unbelief makes us. “But whenever a
person turns [in repentance and faith] to the Lord, the veil is
taken away.”17

Elisha prayed over Gehazi, “Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes that
he may see.”18 Jesus wants us to see into the unseen realms. 19
Like the Holy Spirit took John into heaven to see the throne of
God, so we can all experience the call, “Come up here, and I will
show you things to come.” 20 Jesus prayed, “Father, I will that they
whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am, that they may
behold my glory.”21 That was His desire. And everytime a believer
takes Holy Communion He has promised, “… He that eats me,
even he shall live by me.”22 A child of the kingdom sees that as
an invitation.23 The Holy Spirit will show heaven to us.24 Paul

How It All Began

In the pursuit of God I have found along with the saints of Church
history that there are stages of development as we mature. I am
not so sure about the actual number of levels that the saints write
about, however there are spiralling stages of upward
development when one is longing after God. I would like to share
some of them here.

At the beginning the Holy Spirit led me into a season of cleansing


from sins. I can remember the Holy Spirit leading me to confess
to my children my lack of attention as a father and to my wife for
the lack of peace in our home. This opened us up to a greater
realm of peace from the Prince of peace and God’s love which
began to rule and have dominion in our home. The Holy Spirit
impressed on me to be truthful and clear in all things.

I can remember praying that the staffs who were not one with me
in the spirit would leave. I had to be surrounded with people of
the same spirit who allowed God to rule over the ministry. So I
pulled away from people who caused confusion to my spirit.

I read in “When Heaven Invades Earth,” that the author travelled


and followed ministers who carried the Presence of God and
received impartation from them. His words or something similar
were, “God’s not going to come to you where you are at.”“You
have to show thirst and go following after Him.” Therefore I made
several trips to USA to pursue ministers carrying the kingdom
and glory realms. Several ministers said they had read the lives
of the Church saints and were impacted by them. So I went to
9

IHOP27 and obtained books on intimacy with God from: Brother


Lawrence, Teresa of Avila, John of the Cross, John G. Lake,
William Branham and Roberts Liardon, 28 gleaning from them
immensely.

I began waiting on the Lord to the music of Kimberley & Alberto


Rivera, Julie True, Nichole Lawrence, Ruth Fazel and Luke
Hendrickson. Also I listened to messages from Kris Vallotton, Bill
Johnson, Patricia King, Ryan Wyatt, Jeff Jansen, Heidi and
Roland Baker, Randy Clarke, Tom Jones, Chris Gore, and
desired open heaven experiences.

Encounters of the Lord began in the imaginations of my heart


guided by the Holy Spirit. I started to see God’s house and
throne, and various places in heaven. The Holy Spirit dominated
my thoughts. He ruled me. His kingdom had come to me.

I entered a season of illumination in which the Holy Spirit gave


fresh understanding of the scriptures. I saw things in the Bible in
a new way. Enlightenment! The Church father Origen said there
were four views to every Bible verse. Scriptures began to take on
new meanings during Holy Spirit led encounters.

A book on “The Seven Spirits of God,” 29 was especially helpful


and “The Heavenly Realm” by Judy Franklin.30

While experiencing heavenly encounters I was led to places that


were strange and often I began to doubt. I decided to go and

meet the prophet Bob Jones and discuss with him my visions.
When he confirmed he had been in the same encounters in
heaven, my confusion was cleared. Bob prayed and confirmed
the seers gifting in my life as oil began to manifest on my hands.
As Bob released a greater unction of the seer’s anointing he
instructed me to release it to others in India, which I have
faithfully done. I came away established in the seer’s gifting after
that meeting.

I began to rest in the love of God with the help of certain songs
which I played repeatedly till my spirit was intoxicated with God’s
love. Overwhelmed by love’s reality, I experienced passionate
feelings of fiery love as His Holy Spirit flowed through my spirit.
The intensity of God’s love grows. It consumes.

The Holy Spirit revealed Christ’s and Father’s love which began
to burn within. An abiding love which overwhelms the mind,
making it chose to live in love. I soon discovered new revelations,
which came after spending two or three days continually waiting
on the Lord in contemplative prayer.

The Holy Spirit gave encouragement to manifest the prophetic


more by leading me to read books by Graham Cooke, Larry
Randolph, Patricia King and Kris Vallotton on the prophetic. The
more I honoured the prophetic the more it manifested in my life.

As the Holy Spirit led me further into the heavenly life, I began to
see God’s Spirit in everything. An appreciation for all created
things developed. I began to understand how everything on Earth
is similar to how it is in heaven; only in heaven it is in a glorified
11

state. All things God has made are good and for His pleasure. 31 I
saw He joined the two realms together; both heaven and earth in
Christ on the cross.32 And they are reconciled and work together
in His kingdom.33

I developed a supernatural love for the Church, no matter which


denomination and am convinced Christ loves the Church, His
Body.34 Now I love all denominations, even though I do not agree
with their doctrines or mind sets. I attend their meetings in
Odisha and help them to construct their church buildings.

My understanding of God’s glory realms enlarged as I devoured


books on the glory.35 I see that Christ has poured out His glory all
over the earth as He is reconciled to all things. 36 This gave me
great optimism, and set my goals in ministry to releasing the
glory of Jesus in Odisha.37 I believe the earth will increasingly get
better and will be filled with new and greater inventions. 38 Day by
day the Holy Spirit will make the earth as it is in heaven. 39 It may
take thousands of years or more. 40 I am confident and believe
Christ will fill all the earth with the knowledge of God’s glory. 41

Experiencing the Holy Spirit resting upon me was exhilarating.


One day the Holy Spirit said, “Check My gender.” That led to a
search resulting in a deeper understanding of the Spirit of
wisdom described with the feminine pronoun ‘she’ in Proverbs. 42
Like Solomon and the apostle Paul I began to ask for the Spirit of
wisdom.43 Jesus declared His Spirit was meek and lowly in
heart.44 Peter wrote about having a meek and a quiet spirit. 45
Paul pleaded the meekness and gentleness of Christ. 46 Wisdom
is so meek, and yet radiates so much light, that she became the
focus of my life for a season. The scripture says, Jesus increased
in wisdom and favour with God and man;47 And Wisdom is
vindicated, shown to be true and divine by all her children [by
their life, character and deeds].48

As the glory realms opened so the angelic realms also. 49 To help


increase my understanding of these realms Pastor Alan Koch
introduced me to Kevin and Kathy Basconi of King of Glory
Ministries. As I listened to their messages and read their books I
felt an increase in the angelic realms surrounding me. I went to
their supernatural school of ministry and received a powerful
anointing. Waves of Holy Spirit flowed through my body for over
an hour.

I know more is to come and hope I can explain it to my


generation in an up to date fashion.

The following encounters are not in order and are just a sample
as I walked in heavenly places during the years 2010 - 2014.

The Beginning
14

I imagine walking through a calm clear river 50 and allow the river
to flow through my spirit being. 51 We are born of God with a spirit
body.52 So I swim in this earthly river, in my imagination, till I
reach a waterfall.53 Then I rise up in the waterfall and often
somersault in it till I reached the top. At the top of the water fall
it’s like I’m standing on the edge of Niagara Falls. There the
glorious light of heaven shines and all of heaven beckons,
‘Come.’54

I walk for a distance, and then swim in the heavenly river of life 55
waiting for Jesus to call me.56 I often imagine angels dipping me
in the river. Two angels once dunked me in the water six times,
laughing as they declared, “He’s dirty and needs cleaning.” 57 I
laughed together with them.58 Sometimes I sink under the water
to wash away the earthly thoughts that cling to my mind. 59 The
river caresses my spirit body with God’s warm love. As I bask in
His goodness and mercy I experience a cleansing that delights
my whole being. Then when the Lord calls, “John,” I climb out of
the river on to the grassy embankment. 60 There is a golden path
at the side of the river leading up to the throne of God. 61 Jesus
waits on the side of the road often holding a new garment.

Sometimes the garment is blue, sometimes a royal red garment,


often white, and once it was like a rainbow. 62 Jesus covers me
with the garment and then asks, “Where have you been?” Or He
tells me, “Father is waiting for you.” After apologizing I walk with
Him to a rock near a bridge and sit at His feet and talk. He is
happy that I found a way to intimately commune with Him. After
receiving some words of encouragement He takes me to Father
who is always sitting on the throne 63 and at the same time waiting
in His garden across the bridge.64

Often we jump from scene to scene as the Holy Spirit starts


introducing the heavenly places to us.65 I began to see the
General Assembly of all the angels and saints around Father’s
throne.66 A vast assembly!67 At first I always positioned myself at
the back of the angels and thought I would wait till I was called
forward.68 The angels were all wearing glistening white garments,
and were exceedingly happy engaged in conversation. One of
the angels told me to go to the front but I refused. 69 The angel
didn’t force me but I understood I was not in the place I was
supposed to be. The next few times I visited this scene the
angels were insisting that I move to the front. As I began to move
forward I noticed it pleased them. It’s like the angels are always
encouraging us to rise higher to our proper place as children of
God. I cried for I was deeply touched by the angels’ meekness

and encouragements.70 They know who we are as sons of God


and know their position as our helpers. 71 It was me who did not
know who I was or the privileged position I had as a son of God. 72

On the fifth visit to this scene I stood in the second row before the
throne of God in what appeared to be the place for the new
novices. These young saints were all wearing white garments
and stood with hands lifted up in praise or prayer before the
throne of God.73 The golden ornate throne had three steps
leading up to it.

Suddenly God the Father and His Son Jesus walked off the
throne and walked to the right. Then they stopped, turned, looked
towards me and called me, “John, come!” I went to them, and
stood between them holding their hands. They asked if I wanted
to see their house. I was bewildered, “You have a house?” “Yes,”
they said. And the words, “In my Father’s house are many
mansions,”74 ran through my spirit.

I looked back at the other saints praying in the first row and said,
“Lord, what about them?” Jesus replied, “They are busy praying,
come!” I was surprised.

We went round the back of God’s throne to a glorious house. 75


Two angels stood on either side of a big beautiful archway at the
entrance of the house. Inside there was a large white marbled
hall with a wide spiral staircase leading upstairs. To the right of

the reception hall was a large door to the dining hall where a
feast was being held. I went to the two angels standing at the
door and asked what was going on inside. The door was opened
but I was hesitating to go in. The angels told me Father was
holding a feast for the prophets and encouraged me to go in, for
Father was calling. I proceeded inside and was amazed at the
enormity of the room both its length and breadth and the ceiling
reaching to the stars. Near the entrance way was a long table,
the main table, where Father, Son, and the main guests sit.
There were four long tables that proceeded from this main table
that stretched into eternity. I stood on the left side of the hall
looking at hundreds of prophets all happily eating and drinking.

Father saw me and called me to come and sit near to Him at the
main table. I went and sat rather sheepishly next to Father. He
called an angel to give me a drink. The angel gave me a glass
and poured in living water. Everyone seemed to stop and watch
how much I would drink. I didn’t drink much the first time. But
they all looked as if to say, “Drink more.” So I did, and within a
few moments I was full. Then they all smiled. A strange thick
cloud flowed over my mind and within a few minutes revelation
began to flow into me. My understanding of the Trinity as a family
was expanded. Father offered me a wafer biscuit to eat and as I
ate, Jesus joined us and I could sense the Holy Spirit standing
behind me. I finally understood I was in the family of God and
honoured to be invited to their feast. 76

The scene changed again and we were alone in the dining hall.
Father turned to an angel standing at His side dressed in a royal

76
Ephesians 3:5
18

waiters uniform and said, “He needs to go upstairs to rest.” I


thought “No way.” But Father insisted and the angel took me up
the spiral staircase to the rooms on the right. We entered a wide
hallway with many rooms on each side. The angel took me to a
room which seemed to have nothing inside. As I walked to the
centre of the room, three oblong mirrors came and surrounded
me in a triangle. White cloudy steam flowed from the mirrors and
soaked me through and through. It was like I was being
sanctified; drenched in holiness; I felt pure and clean. I objected
thinking I was clean but the angel laughed and the steam
persisted. When I came out my garment was dazzling white.

Then the angel took me into the next room. There were huge
portraits of Jesus hanging on the walls. The first one was of
Jesus the Good Shepherd. The next was of Jesus as the Lamb.
The next was Jesus as the Lion of Judah, Then Jesus as a King,
then as a Prophet, as a High Priest, as a Captain, a Rock, an
Architect, Physician, Painter, Sculptor, Athlete, and more.

All were beautifully painted set in magnificent backgrounds that


were lively and three-dimensional. Jesus’ face in each one was
different; was interactive and spoke. After admiring each portrait
and talking to some of them I proceeded to the next room.

Finally we arrived at God’s resting room. “God has a bedroom?” I


thought, “I must be out of my mind.” (I was; out of my earthly
mind and finally entering into a heavenly mind set). There was a
golden bed in the middle of large room surrounded with white
chiffon curtains.
19

Suddenly Jesus was present in the room and said, “Rest, my


son.” I protested, “No Lord!” Again He insisted, “You need to rest
my son.” The words, “There is a rest for the children of God, stop
doing your works, and enter His rest,” 77 ran through me. I
surrendered and went to lie down.

The golden bed sheet became a sea of honey and I began


sinking into it. It covered my body leaving only my face free; so I
called for help. The Lord’s hand stretched out and went
underneath me. He lifted me up out of the honey and as I looked
in the mirror I saw I was covered with a golden metallic garment
that was transparent, translucent and draped over me. I was
clothed with His majesty. It was overwhelming. I was in a daze as
Jesus walked me down the stair case, out of His house, down the
golden path back to the river and back into my mind.

I didn’t dare tell anyone what I encountered till I was sure it was
real. I wrote to Bob Jones, a prophet in USA and requested a
meeting, which his wife Bonnie graciously granted. I told Bob
about my experience in God’s bedroom. “Yes, been there,” He
replied. I said, “I sunk into the honey.” He replied, “Oil.” I replied,
“Honey.” He replied, “Oil.” I answered, “Bob, it was oil to you but
honey to me.” We laugh but I was so relieved that what I was
seeing in the heavenlies was real.

Another time I went to re-visit the hall of portraits. 78 The first


portrait was of Jesus as the King, majestic in His royal garments.
77
Hebrews 4:9-10
78
We can keep going back into the same heavenly experience and see other aspects
of the same imagination as the Holy Spirit leads us. In the same way each story in the
Bible is a doorway into an encounter. As we read a Bible story several times we can
enter into it when we start to meditate upon it.
20

In the second He was like a shepherd, holding and caring for His
sheep. In the third He was like a lamb, carrying His cross. In the
fourth His face looked like an ox ploughing the land. In the fifth
His face was as an eagle, looking down from a high rock. In the
sixth Jesus was like a lion ruling over all the animals. In the next
Jesus face was in the ocean looking over all the kingdoms within.
He was riding on a dolphin. In the eight Jesus was the Angel of
the Lord standing over a fire breathing dragon plunging a huge
sword into it. I was in a state of shock when I saw this scene and
asked the angel accompanying me what it meant. He made me
understand the LORD God was the Creator of all creatures, even
dragons. If the dragon doesn’t obey Him, He removes His life
from it. The sword was the decree that decides their fate.

In Father’s Garden

The first time I walked with Jesus into Father’s garden He took
me through a tall gate. Inside was a beautiful green garden
where Father was standing under a large fruit tree. Father was
holding a large red fruit which He had plucked and offered to me.
He told me to eat it.
21

Father began to ask where I had been and what was I doing. I
told Him about my Bible classes and what I was teaching the
students. He was genuinely interested. He asked if I would like to
see His zoo. I said yes and together we walked to a part of the
park that was very special to Him.

It made Him happy to show an unusual animal that was like a


young deer, having two long horns protruding from its head. He
asked me, “Why do you think I made those antlers long like
that?” I thought for a moment and replied, “Possibly they
represent goodness and mercy.” He looked at me and said,
“Think again!” I did but couldn’t think of anything. After a long
pause He said, “What are the antlers used for?” I replied, “To
drive away enemies.” He smiled and said, “Then?” I replied, “Do
they represent power and authority?” He was happy with that
reply and said, “So much power and authority on such a small
head hey?” I agreed.

Then Father showed me an insect having two antennae looking


like a grasshopper and asked, “What you think those two
antennas are for? I replied, “To discern what’s near.” “Yes” He
said, and we laughed at how cute they were.

I started to think about cats whiskers and said, “You were a


genius to create whiskers.” To which He replied, “It makes them
look cute, doesn’t it?” I agreed, and we laughed again. Then He
said, “Imagine what it would be like being a cat without whiskers.”

Then I commented, “What about the freckles on the faces of


some of your animals.” He replied, “Try to imagine those animals
without freckles. They would look very plain, don’t you think?” I
22

agreed. Then He commented on the black spots on a white


skinned animal. “They look nice, don’t you think?” I had to admit
they did indeed. I found I was admiring this loving Father who
enjoys His creatures and takes intricate care of all of them, more
than the creatures He was showing to me.

Then I saw a giraffe and commented on its long neck and small
head. He said, “That’s a good example of those who have a high
mind. It’s head is so high but it’s brain is so small.” We laughed.

We walked by the river again and I saw fields filled with flowers.
“Red tulips,” He said, “You like those don’t you?” We both
observed the lily flowers sitting on the water. “See how it rest on
the water and looks so beautiful.” Yes I thought, What an
amazing Creator you are. Then I looked inside the river, at the
fish swimming happily. He said, “Your world is only just now
discovering the glories of the ocean. There are worlds
underneath the waters and more hidden things to be discovered.”

Then we saw some ants and He asked me what I thought of their


antennae. By this time I realized every creature displayed an
aspect of His nature and so said, “It must be revealing your
sensitivity that discerns other creatures.” We laughed at the ants
which had eyes protruding out from their antennae and His
friendliness caused me to ask, “What made you make eyes like
that?” He replied, “Oh I just wanted it to be different from the
others. Why? Do you not like it?” I looked at Him and thought is
my opinion important? His utter sincerity and genuine
inquisitiveness about what I thought took me completely by
surprise. I’ve never had any other being care about my opinions
like He does.
23

He showed me other creatures which seemed in different stages


of growth. It was like He was experimenting in a laboratory on
different kinds of animal species. I was stunned by the sheer
wonder of them all. “Then you have not stopped creating things
have you?” I asked. He smiled and with a glint in His eye said,
“Would you like to join me in creating more creatures?” I bubbled
with joy, “Yes I sure would.”
24

So They Say I’m Slow

Another time Father and I were walking in His garden when He


asked, “So they say I’m slow do they?” At first I wondered what
He was talking about. Then a thought came about the four
hundred years Israel was in Egypt, and then the long period
between Malachi and John the Baptist. Moses had to wait forty
years, and Israel seventy years in Babylon, and concluded, “Yes,
I can understand why people think you’re slow,” but dared not
say it. But He had already anticipated my answer. “No, I am not
slow,” He said. “Come let me show you.”

So we walked together by the river of life. He asked me to go into


the river to be as fresh and lively as He was. After I came out of
the river, He asked, “Who made the channels for the rivers?” I
replied, “You did.” Then we walked to a huge tree where He
asked, “Look at how tall this tree is. Can you see its roots and tell
how it always sucks the water from the earth in order to grow and
bear fruit?”I replied, “No.” He continued, “Therefore think how my
sons and daughters must continually abide in the vine sucking
the virtue from Christ’s spirit.” He then took me into a field where
there were golden apples growing on the trees.

After that we went to look at His universe and the Milky Way in
particular. Father said, “Look there’s that looking glass. Finally
you have a telescope that can see some more of the universes I
have made.” At first I didn’t know what He was talking about till I
looked closely and saw the Hubble telescope.

I asked Father, “How did the wise men of old discovered the
various zodiacs?” He said, “I whispered it in their ears while they
25

were looking at the stars – otherwise they would never have


guessed it.”79 I understood a little how Job felt as God showed
him the mysteries in the snow flakes, for it was clear He loves
variety.80 Not one star in the heavens or one human on the earth
is the same. “You’re all so different and I sustain every one of
them by my Spirit,” He exclaimed.81

Father looked again at Hubble and asked me, “How far can it see
now?” I wasn’t sure but knew they couldn’t see as far as His
universe was. Scientists say there are tens of billions of solar
systems in our galaxy.82 He knew what I was thinking, smiled and
with a glint in His eyes said, “And they think I’m slow.” I laughed
becoming increasingly aware that His humour was so enjoyable.
He continued “And some think the earth is going to end soon?
Where did they get that idea from?” He looked at me intently and
said, “Someone should prepare a sermon on how I sustain all
things for I made things to last forever. 83” He was so happy He
had someone to talk to who agreed with Him. And so we
continued walking.

Often times Jesus takes me to His Father where He is waiting for


me in the garden. Father always sits at a round garden table,
with a silver ornate leg and a glass top. There are four chairs
around the table. I always go and sit at Father’s right hand side.

26

He always asks me where I’ve been and how I am. He waits for
my questions and delights to answer them.

He is very polite and calls an angel to give me a drink and many


times offered me a plate with a wafer biscuit to eat. Sometimes I
can see Father’s right hand on the table. He puts it there to
watch if I will take it and hold it. I sometimes hold His hand to my
face and kiss it. It’s such an unusual hand. Long thin fingers of
an old man that remind me He is the Eternal of Days. But the
love and goodness that flows from His hand causes me to
treasure these moments.

Sometimes silence is enough. Father just wants me sitting there


next to Him. His virtue flows from His Spirit into our spirits. His
goodness and graciousness just flow like the ebb of an unending
stream revitalizing our life. His life is life to me.

After eating and drinking Jesus arrives, so we talk and I’m aware
of the Holy Spirit standing behind me influencing the direction of
the conversation. It is all in the Holy Spirit and only through the
Trinity can I enjoy this sweet fellowship.
27

Jesus the King of Glory

After learning to use the same music to rest in the Lord and the
same pathway through the river of life to enter into heavenly
places,84 I would somersault in the waterfall and at the top wade
till I am swimming in the river. Waiting for Jesus to call, I would
then rise up and walk to Him. He tells me Father is waiting and
we walk along a narrow pathway, through a gate into a lush
green garden. Trees line the river at the side of the pathway
which leads to where Father stands or sits waiting.

Jesus is young, fresh and lively. Always exuding an abundant life


filled with joy and happiness. He truly shines from the fullness of
life that is in Him. He is the life of everything in heaven and on
earth. That day we walked together to where Father was
standing, smiling as always. The Holy Spirit stood on the left, and
the Son on the right. I knelt, bowed and worshipped them with
my hands lifted up. The Holy Spirit and Jesus came and held my
arms up. They then poured the blood of Jesus over my head and
all my thoughts were cleansed at the cross. The Holy Spirit
covered me with a white garment and I was accepted in the sight
of God, because I believed in Jesus and was in the Spirit of
Christ.

During that season I returned to this encounter often. The


Father’s goodness and mercy flowed into my being from His
Spirit. I soaked in His presence, thanking Him and drinking in of
His glory. The angels gave me glasses of water which I drank till I
was filled. By this time I understood I must drink as a faith action.
84
“My Beautiful One” – Piano - Luke Hendrickson
28

That’s when I became conscious my inner man was being filled


with the Spirit of Christ.

I asked Father to give me understanding of how He can be so


multidimensional; manifesting miracles through His ministers,
anointing pastors, directing billions of angels and humans, and
able to make executive decisions all at the same moment of time.
He blesses one part of the earth while watching another part
experience hardships and does not miss a thing. I asked Him for
a download of that mystery into my spirit. How can He encounter
one saint on the throne and at the same time be engaging
another in His garden? Obviously it’s a quality of the Spirit’s
nature to be in the Son, in us, and at the same time searching
the Father for things to reveal to us. What a multi-dimensional,
multi-relational God. His Spirit is way beyond what we think. So
lovely, amazing, brilliantly wise Holy Spirit of God!

Jesus turned and said, “Let’s go to Father’s house and see


what’s happening there.” So we turned and went behind the
throne to where Father’s house is. We walked together to the
dining hall where Father was holding a feast. This time I seemed
to focus on the dishes of food: fruit, nuts, and cakes in the centre
of the table. I noticed the beautiful flower decorations adorning
the table. Angels stood at the side of the table and served those
seated. Jesus the Prince stood near the entrance way and
introduced me to the apostles: Paul, John and Peter. The
prophets: Moses, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel and Amos also came to
greet. They were so warm and friendly, meek and cordial. I was
amazed at their graciousness.
29

Then Prince Jesus went with the Apostle Paul to the large
window on the left side of the room and stared into the universe. I
was overwhelmed by the grandeur of the universe they were
looking at. Then Jesus turned, beckoned me to the dining table
and asked me to sit. Father was at the head of the table and the
apostles were on His left hand side: Peter, Paul, John, Andrew,
Luke, Mark etc; and on the right hand side of God sat the
Prophets: Moses, David, Isaiah etc. It dawned on me I was on
the left hand side.

A white stallion suddenly appeared. It just manifested and stood


before the large open window. Jesus mounted the horse and
extended His hand inviting me to ride with Him. When I respond
positively my spirit suddenly sprang towards the horse and sat
behind Him. Then the stallion raised his front legs in triumph and
took off flying through the galaxy. We gallop through
constellations and along pathways through the heavens towards
the mountains. Jesus likes to go to the mountains. One time I
saw a light brown horse, together with several dark brown horses
all around His white stallion. I love wrapping my arms around
Jesus as we ride over the mountains and love the scenes
beneath in the villages of heaven.

Often I saw children with school bags on their backs walking in


lines of two going to school. They were walking on golden paths
through cornfields where the crop was green and tall – ready for
harvest. The children saw me, smiled and waved at me. They
called out, “Uncle, uncle, are you coming to teach us today?” I
replied I would come soon.
30

Then a dear sister came running through the cornfields waving


her arms and calling, “John, come to my house. Come see what
the Lord has given to me.” I followed her along a pathway
through the cornfields to a beautiful mud house. The walls of the
mansions reflect the glory of the person who lives in the house.
The outside walls of this woman’s house reflected goodness and
as I drew near I was amazed at how low the door was. I thought
she must have been very lowly. Now while the outside of the
house was a glorious mud brown colour once I entered the
house the décor changed dramatically.

It was like entering a huge marble palace. It was a tall white


marbled hallway with a beautiful round table in the middle with
tea and biscuits served ready to be enjoyed. We promptly sat on
the two chairs around the table. The sister poured the tea and we
talked. She shared about all the beautiful gifts Jesus had given to
her which were in her home. She showed me several gifts which
were treasures indeed. We laughed and talked as I watched her
smile so radiant and her eyes glisten. She had been so poor
upon the earth with little in her house. How gracious the Lord
was to bless her with such a mansion. Outwardly it was looking
poor but inwardly glorious indeed. Her home reflected her
personality.

Another time I saw a library in heaven. An angel had escorted


me to a tall light brown coloured building. As I entered the door I
saw rows upon rows of books reaching the ceiling of the building.
The room had a glass dome in the centre of it. There was a
ladder that reached the books on the top shelves, which moved
forward and backwards as we swayed upon it, directing it.
31

As I stood on the ladder it rolled along to the shelf I needed to go


to. Climbing the ladder some of the books called me to take and
open them, but they did not leave their place on the shelf. When I
reached the shelf I was called to, a huge golden book suddenly
jumped into my hands. The picture on the front was like a portrait
of a child I knew. Inside as I turned the pages I saw the life and
history of the child. Each page had a video display like a
hologram of that part of the child’s life. The child’s hologram and
the surrounding characters in the child’s life talked as the scenes
played out. As I turned the pages each scene came alive.

I went often to the library and saw the lives of friends. I was
amazed how the King and the angels keep a record of every
child that has God’s life.

Suddenly the scene changed and I was on Father’s throne with


my head resting on His hand. He told me to look up and drink a
glass of water of life. I drank and saw Jesus as a king in a red
and golden garment walking towards the throne. My spirit
immediately cried out, “Holy is the Lamb of God.”

King Jesus the King of glory sat at Father’s side. I looked towards
Him, as He pointed towards me and told me to sit on His right
hand side. I accepted His invitation. Then I heard the seven
Spirits say, “Your training has commenced.” Suddenly I was
aware there were levels of angels and heavenly creatures
standing in adoration around Father’s throne. Various scenes of
the General Assembly Day began to flow before my eyes. Billions
of creatures attend General Assembly Day each month.
32

I felt a surge of lightning bolts shoot through my flesh. Suddenly I


was aware of a golden chalice in Father’s hand which He told me
to drink. After gulping down the living water I walked inside His
house to the dining table and sat and ate. Jesus the King of glory
came, sat and talked.

Then He told me to enter His rest. We walked upstairs to His


resting chamber where a bed was covered with a golden bed
sheet. Again the King told me to enter His rest. I lay down on the
golden bed sheets which again turned into golden honey. I began
to sink into the thick golden honey which covers our being like
His Shekinah glory. I became conscious I was resting in the
embrace of the King in one realm, with my hand on Father’s
hand on the table in the garden in another realm, while praying in
my room on earth. I was conscious of being in three places at
one time.

One time I was dancing with the King in what seemed to be an


Elizabethan court dance. Father held one hand while the Prince
held the other as we went back and forth. They enjoyed
themselves as they twirled me around. Suddenly they stopped
dancing and I saw Moses as he stood in the cleft of the rock as
God walked by. The King revealed the glory of His goodness to
Moses. His royal train flowed behind Him with universes and
eternity entwined in it.

I imagined the four faces of Jesus presented in His gospels.


Jesus face was of a loving King who also had a servant heart.
Then another face was of the Son of God who became a man,
Immanuel, God with us. I understood that the Holy Spirit sought
to change us into the same image as our glorious King. God
33

desires that we reflect the four faces of our King. The Holy Spirit
of Christ is within us making us conscious that we are children of
the King of kings. We are royalty. We have His virtue and kingly
character within us. Several times the Holy Spirit reminded me I
am a prince and must behave like a loving king’s son. Every time
I said, “Christ you are in me, and I am in you,” the presence
increased like thick heavy dew upon me. I like to keep saying, I
am in Him and He is in me.
34

God’s Sons

I saw Jesus sitting on a throne and around Him were many small
thrones with streams of glory pouring forth from them. Jesus was
releasing waves of glory to His sons who were His kings.

Suddenly His throne became so big that all the surrounding


thrones looked tiny. These tiny thrones grew into a mountain
surrounding Him. It was a mountain full of kings who He had
fathered from all generations.

Then I heard Jesus say, “John, stay longer,” and when I did I
went deeper into His Spirit. I was standing near Him when He
pointed to a golden throne and asked me to sit on it. He then
introduced me to the apostles Paul, Peter and John again. He
reminded me how Peter and John’s families were very close and
how He loves to dwell in families like that.

While sitting Father kept saying, “John, you are my son.” He


repeated it six times emphasizing, “My son” and “You are a part
of my house.” At first I could not understand, so He kept
repeating, “You are my son, sit.” I was still kneeling before Him
and hesitating to sit on the throne offered to me. Finally it
dawned on me that Kings sons sit on thrones and don’t kneel
before their monarch. I finally got up and sat on the throne
offered to me. Immediately my eyes were opened and I saw the
apostles Paul and John sitting on their thrones and saying to me,
“Now we are the sons of God. Well done. It took you long enough
but you’re finally here.” I turned to look at Father and He was
smiling, happy I finally got the boldness to sit on my throne.
35

I’ve seen hundreds of thrones with people’s names written in


gold plate on the back of the seat. They were all unoccupied for
no one had told them they were theirs. Oh blessed are those who
believe in ‘all’ the gospel!

Father told Jesus to take me to the feast held for His children in
His house. All His mature sons and daughters were sitting
enjoying the feast. Father asked, “Why are you surprised? I love
to throw feasts for all my children! All are welcomed, but not
everyone believes and comes.”

I sat halfway down the fourth row of table not wishing to presume
upon a higher position. Father looked at me from the head of the
table and said, “What are you doing there?” I felt awkward. He
said, “Come here, sit beside me.” Suddenly I was standing at the
side of His chair. He put His arm around me and looking straight
into my eyes said, “You belong here near to me. Look at all my
sons and daughters, how they enjoy being with me. You too!
Enjoy yourself and eat.” An angel filled my glass and told me to
drink, which I did.

On another occasion I heard Jesus voice say “Come” and saw


the Father walking to the throne. So I stood beside Father and
took hold of His hand. As I held His hand I was filled with joy.
Then we walked together towards His house. The entrance of
His house was filled with lights – white misty lights. The
archangels standing at the entrance to His house greeted us.
They were fair, tall and handsome and always made me smile
whenever I entered.
36

We went through the reception hall and passed to the right into
the dining hall where a long dining table was. This time Father
directed me to sit on His right hand side. I said, “Lord, this is your
Sons’ seat”. He said, “You are in my son now, and my Son is in
you. You are totally accepted in Him, and a co-heir together with
Him, so sit.” I sat and Father held my hand. He smiled ever so
happy as we just enjoyed each other’s company.

As His face turned He told me to look through the tall glass


windows on the left hand side. I looked and saw His vast
universe and heard Him whisper, “All I have is yours.” I looked at
Him so full of love and compassion and said, “Lord, all I want is
you. Your good spirit and your sweet fellowship is enough. My
desire is to walk with you so I get to know you better. You and
you alone are all I want.” He smiled and replied, “Come!”

He started to rise and we walked through the starry universe to a


huge stadium which was suspended in mid-air. We stood outside
the stadium and looked inside. There was a line in the middle of
the playing field where all time, past, present and future was. He
was observing the times and watching over them like a shepherd
watches over His flock. All earthly ages were recorded in that
stadium and I saw there was no end of ages.

As He looked down on the earth through the clouds, I saw Him


look at Odisha. It seemed to me like it was a drop in a bucket.
The population of thirty-three million was a small droplet. He
scooped up the droplet like clear water in the palm of His hand,
looked at it and showed it to me. I looked and then turned to see
His face so full of loving kindness. I quickly requested for mercy
for my Odisha people.
37

He called me closer to His side, and like a father with his son at a
game of cricket, we watched together. Suddenly He held out His
right hand over the stadium and light beams shone from it.
Lightning rods shot from His hand through the thick darkness
covering Odisha. The lightening rods caused the darkness to
flee. Then shafts of light appeared and poured from heaven to
earth. A season of blessings poured forth from within the shafts.
Seasons of His goodness were beginning in Odisha. Suddenly
there was lightning. The power that was pouring from His hand
deeply impressed my spirit so that I took a hold of His hand and
held it over me. Then I kissed His hand of blessing as fiery
flames of love saturated my being.

I knelt down as He laid His hand on my shoulder. I began to


intercede for Odisha. He extended His right hand of power and
authority towards me. I responded, “Lord let your hand rest on
me when I minister.” He gave no response. I spoke again, “Lord,
let your wisdom, meekness, and goodness rest upon me.” Again
He did not respond. So again I prayed, “Lord, let the works of
your powerful love and goodness be done in Odisha.”

Then He turned and said, “Come let’s run.” Amazed, I asked,


“Lord, You’re running?” He replied, “Yes I love to run. Why? Do
you think I walk slowly all the time?” I realized how little I knew of
Him. Was He suggesting I needed to exercise? I understood
without Him having to tell me. Such love and concern for my
physical health! I ran and finally caught up to Him.
38

Sons Are Stars

Another encounter started as I thought on Father’s humility


compared to His immensity. Father loves to hide Himself and yet
He is in every living thing. He is in every cell of our body giving
life and strength. He has determined to hide, sustaining and
providing the goodness of life to all. It’s the only way He can see
who will seek Him and find Him out. He’s thrilled when someone
really seeks Him and loves Him. He asks me sometimes, “Do you
think they will still love me when they find out how huge I am?” At
those moments I tell Him, “Come Here,” and give Him a bear hug
and a big kiss and tell Him He’s the most adorable lovely One in
the entire universe. Now Jesus also follows His Father’s example
and hides within us waiting for us to recognize Him. He’s
adorable too!

Then I saw the sons of God allowing God’s light to shine through
them like stars in the universe; each one co-labouring together
with God. Christ was the dominant partner in each of their spirits,
teaching them to do only as the Father willed. I saw each son of
God had come to the true knowledge of Father and was content
to yield to the Son. This unity with Christ, in obedience to
Father’s will, made them mature sons. Father was observing
which sons were conscious of the Spirit of Christ within; for they
understood the way to Him. This oneness with Christ’s Spirit is
essential to being conscious of the Father being in Christ within
us.

I saw millions of shinning stars all over the universe all linked to
Christ. They were all shinning with the love, goodness and
virtues of Christ. I thought, “Why wouldn’t they want to be like
39

Jesus who is the greatest person in the universe?” Doesn’t a


child want to emulate His parent? Jesus wanted to be like His
Father so why wouldn’t the sons want to be like Jesus. After all,
He’s our Creator, Redeemer, and the life inside our being. Father
is in Christ in me. Therefore I should want Christ to be the greater
One within me. That should be my delight. It is His will to always
be hiding Himself in me. He does not hide from me but is within
me.

Christ is the only perfect Son who does a great job of producing
sons of God within each one of us. Therefore loving the Son and
growing in intimacy causes the Father to manifest Himself in the
sons of God.

Jesus said, “Come,” and suddenly He was in our children’s home


in Jharsuguda outside our baby care building. He was waiting
and looking for the babies to come out. I asked Him, “What must
I do to bring the babies to you?” He replied, “They are my
children and I gave them to you to care for. They are my precious
stars.”

As I looked He called a boy to Himself and said, “Look, he’s my


knight in shining armour. On Sunday get a soldier’s helmet and
sword and give it to him with a command.” 85

He said of another boy, “Look he’s my star. Encourage him.”

Then He called another and said, “My little explosive one. I have
seen his zeal.”

85
Deuteronomy 31:7-8
40

Calling another He said, “Tell him I love him with an everlasting


love and put your arms around him.”

Then He called a small girl, “My pearl, my precious one! Tell her I
delight in her.”

Finally He called another girl saying, “Look my lovely one.”

Looking straight at me, He said, “I love them all so much. Tell


them when I walk around their rooms at night I put my hand on
them so they can sleep. I begin to walk as soon as the lights are
turned off and some of them sense when I stand beside their
bed. They are not too old that they escape my protection.”

Again Jesus said, “Come.” And suddenly I was near His throne
and saw healing evangelists John Osteen and T. L. Osborn
standing together clothed with royal garments. I was so happy to
see them for they were my heroes of faith in my younger days.
They were cheering me on and encouraging me to fly and press
in for greater miracles for Odisha. Suddenly I saw Odisha in the
future as a glorious land like Eden.

I saw and heard a prophet chuckle and say, “John I see you and
visit you in spirit. Don’t you want to fly?” I replied, “Yes.” Then I
saw the hand of the Lord as it was on Ezekiel picking him up and
carrying him from Babylon to Jerusalem. Ezekiel was being
carried along in the Spirit. The Holy Spirit asked, “Don’t you want
to fly?” I said, “Oh yes, I long for it.” He replied, “It is a part of
your inheritance.”

I understood the Holy Spirit was available for us, as I was flying
over the fields in Odisha to the mountains of the Kui tribes and
41

calling them to assemble in heaven. There I spoke to the tribals


in heaven about Christ being in them and increasing from one
level of glory to another. I was already flying in heaven, so I knew
Father and His Holy Spirit could enhance that experience, so that
it could happen on the earth.

Father said, “Treasure the Holy Spirit who is in you. Follow the
Spirit’s leading and do the Spirit’s will.” I said. “Yes Lord.” As the
encounter was coming to an end, He said, “Write it down or you’ll
forget it. Go and eat.” So I did.
42

Jesus’ Bedroom

Jesus called me inside the reception hall of His palace. This time
the floor was of pure marble with a stream of living water flowing
softly over it. The banqueting hall was on the right and Father
was throwing another feast. I knew I must go there afterwards. In
the middle of the hallway was a magnificent spiral staircase of
pure cream coloured marble.

The Lord called me to go upstairs to see His room. When we


reached the top step He turned to the left side and entered a
narrow hallway. As I followed the Lord, on the right hand side
was a door to His room. The door was of shining mahogany
wood with the letters ‘Jesus’ in embossed gold displayed on it.
The letters were large and bright and dancing with delight. Jesus
was so happy to show me His room and I somehow understood
the room was happy too that I had come. He smiled and said,
“Few people come here, due to unbelief.” Jesus appeared young
like a teenager. I’d seldom see Him look so young.

He called me to sit on a single bed covered with a golden sheet.


He patted the golden sheet and said, “Sit. Only my friends come
here.” I sat while He looked over the room searching for
something to show me. He pulled out a new garment from a
cupboard and asked if I liked it. I did like it. It was majestic. A
prince’s garment fit for special occasions. He asked if I would like
to try it on and wear it for the feast being celebrated downstairs. I
tried it on. The garments in heaven effortlessly fly to you and
cover whatever you are wearing and change it accordingly. I
could feel the garment caress and hug me with warm loving
feelings. It was like I was clothed with a garment of peace, which
43

felt like a soft fluffy comforter. A lovely texture! It was magnificent


cloth. Of a colour I had never seen before and which continually
changed from shiny gold to platinum to silver. I was mesmerized!
Jesus laughed and understood my amazement and called for an
angel to give me a glass of water. Whenever you find anything
difficult to understand just take another drink and suddenly you
believe, receive and enjoy the joys of heaven.

After slowly drinking the water I understood He was clothing me


for the feast. It dawned on me that Father was a King and His
house was actually a palace for the royal family. I was visiting
with the Son of God who was the royal Prince of glory. Jesus was
so unassuming, so natural, no airs and graces with Him. He
pulled me gently to the mirror to look at the garment. I stood
there in front of the mirror with Jesus at my side and burst into
tears. That one so majestic as He, would love such an immature
person as I, overwhelmed me. He stood there full of loving
kindness and smiled knowing what I was thinking. He was
assuring me He would complete my transformation into His glory
and majesty. It was communication without speaking. His Spirit
was communicating to my spirit. I looked at Him and requested
Him fill all my memories with His joy.

Enquiring as to why He had made me a serious person, He


assured me it was best. The work He had chosen for me required
such a character.

I looked at Him and in a flash saw Him as the perfected Son of


man. Suddenly another scene flashed before me and Jesus was
standing among Jews who did not understand Him at all. I saw
how serious He was towards them. I sighed seeing how patient
44

He was, and how lacking in understanding the Pharisees were. I


asked Him to give me this kind of patience especially to deal with
difficult people. He knew everything and understood everything
and I praised Him for being the most intellectual Prince that ever
lived. He truly is the greatest scientist, mathematician, musician,
and artist.

As I looked through the window at the universe He created, I


magnified Him in praise for its beauty, wonder, order and
perfections. As I returned to look at Him standing beside me,
suddenly, I knew His mind was elsewhere engaged in
conversation with millions of His creatures. I knelt in adoration
overwhelmed at the thought that He had released all earthly
languages and knowledge to the nations because of His grace.
His immensity overwhelmed me and again I needed a drink from
His fullness. “All of you, in all of me,” was my hearts response.

Jesus suggested we sit on the red carpet on the floor and play
around and have some fun. There was a toy box in the corner.
He assured me toys were alright for He had ordered toys to be a
necessary part of the growing up process. We laughed and
played tag, while all the time I was crying with joy. After
sometime we went back over to the window and looked again at
the magnificent universe. Seeing I was overwhelmed by His
majesty He whispered, “Yes but even a King has His own room
where He spends time with His friends.” Having got the point, I
knew it was time to join the others downstairs.

Jesus stood up and beckoned to go downstairs. The name


“Jesus” was still dancing on the door and was calling, “Come
again.” We were at the top of staircase when I hesitated. I stood
45

upright and poised to begin the descent conscious I was wearing


royal apparel. I was becoming a prince like Him and should act
like Him. Suddenly we were at the bottom of the staircase where
a mist was flowing from the dining hall. The Lord accompanied
me to the doorway of the dining hall and then left.

The angels at the door knew I needed another drink and offered
me one. I drank the water of life and enter the dining hall. Some
modern day prophets came and greeted me. As I entered the hall
I saw our glorious Father sitting and rejoicing with all His children.
He always made everyone exceedingly happy.

This time the angels were flying over the tables supplying all the
delicacies and fruit. All the guests were in beautiful glorious
garments. I thought about the dining hall scenes at Hogwarts in
the Harry Potter movies and immediately the Holy Spirit said,
“Yes, see how they copied what’s happening here. They can only
duplicate what God is doing.”

I went back to the throne of God where other sons were sitting
near to Jesus. They were rulers over various parts of heaven
enjoying their inheritance. They were kings because of their
relationship with Jesus.

I asked the apostle Paul to teach me how he received so much


understanding of heavenly things. I immediately realized he had
prayed for the Spirit of wisdom and understanding. 86 Then I
requested he impart that same Spirit of wisdom and
understanding to the same depth that he had. Paul had enlarged
the realm surrounding him so that the Spirit of wisdom was free

86
Ephesians 1:17
46

to minister to him. The angel standing near me started making


me laugh and I bubbled over with joy. Then I understood laughter
released wisdom and understanding too.87

As I sat on a throne I was aware of a group of angels standing


behind me lazily leaning like they had nothing to do. One of them
started yawning in a very strange manner. I was surprised at his
behaviour and enquired what was wrong. He said, “John, you are
so boring. We have been assigned to accompany you but you
give us no work to perform.” Suddenly I saw an army of angels
that were behind him waiting for my orders. I immediately started
releasing the angels to various towns of Odisha to bless them.

The eyes of my understanding were opened and I knew I could


call or commission angels and they would come. I was a
‘gateway’ for angels to come from heaven to earth. Angels are
assigned to us and are waiting for us to call to them for help. So I
called.

I then saw the mountains were filled with angels riding upon
chariots. They were moving to and fro and watching over the
earth.

Angels

87
Psalm 16:11.
47

I was thinking of God’s pre-creation glory and how everything


came out from His glory. I saw creation coming out of Christ’s
mouth and continually expanding in every direction throughout
the universe. I saw Christ was the glory in the centre of
everything and all life radiated out from Him. God is light and
from this glory; light, spirits and angels were created. He liked
spirits and angels for He made billions of them; enough for every
human to enjoy several.

I saw Jesus as the Angel of the Lord with huge dazzling wings.
His wings fascinated me, and as I thought of all the wings He
made on angels, fish, insects, butterflies and birds, I realized
these all reflected His likeness too. The eyes pictured on the
peacock’s feathers were intentionally looking forward like God
always does. The rhythmic movement of the wings as they fly,
flutter, or hover, fascinated me. The up and down graceful
movement corresponds to the breathing in and out of creatures.

God’s Spirit breathes in and out. Spirit is called ‘Breath’ in


Hebrew. And His Name Yahweh, Yah – Hey, Yah breathes out,
Hey breathes in, the same movement as wings, up and down.
Like the fish fins breathing in and out in water. Like the waves of
the ocean moving constantly in an up and down way.

So the wings of the cherubim on the mercy seat in the tabernacle


reflect the nature of the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Every angel, spirit, bird and butterfly enjoys flying. The butterfly
captured my attention as it changes from a caterpillar, rests in
chrysalis form and then comes out as a butterfly – a small type of
an angel. Angels who assist God, love to hover over all of His
48

creation, providing care and protection. The Angel of the Lord


loves to fly with angels and talks to them while they fly.

“Come,” Jesus said, “Let’s fly together.” He carried me on His


back at first which was like riding on an eagle’s wings soaring
over mountains and valleys. Then after a while I had confidence
to fly at His side holding His hand learning to ride the wind drafts.
Sometimes Father would draw alongside and I would hold His
hand as the three of us soared through the heavens riding on the
winds of the Spirit. Later I learned to bless the towns and villages
I flew over, covering them with the love and peace of God.

I saw a field of roses. The roses were standing straight with no


thorns on them and were so beautiful. From the field of roses I
flew to the Lord’s garden and to His table. I held His hand and
requested Him to send breaker angels to Odisha to dispel the
darkness in the land. I saw Father turn to Michael the archangel
and tell him to dispatch a breaker angel. I looked as Jesus
agreed with Father and immediately I knew a breaker angel was
dispatched to Odisha.

Father looked at me and said, “Drink of the spirit of revelation,”


and then He commissioned an angel to show me more in His
house. This tall beautiful angel took me into the Father’s house
and as we entered the angel said, “This is the portico. Come
quickly I have to show you other rooms in Father’s house.” I
passed the dining hall where Father’s table was. I thought this
dining table must be associated with the table of showbread in
the earthly tabernacle, for it was the pattern on earth of God’s
house.
49

This angel revealed a realm that represented the golden


candlestick. He took me to a room full of light. At first it was a
white cloudy light which changed to a blue heavenly light and
then to red lights, followed by a golden light, and finally a
rainbow. The lights lived and vibrated, giving off waves of
radiance that one could tangibly feel. By now I understood it was
not what we saw but what we received that was transferable. So I
welcomed the lights to shine within me.

My spirit repeated, “I am a child of light.” The room filled up with


the light of truth and I understood Father was the Father of lights.
I saw the Trinity pouring their light into my spirit. I absorbed their
light and was filled with a fullness of spiritual brilliance. Their
white cloudy Spirit was so meek, gentle, kind and tender. It made
me feel so lowly that I was willing to yield more to them.

After sometime in that room I knew I had to go to Father’s bed


and rest. As I lay upon the bed I sank into the golden honey
again. This time it was different. I knew I was soaking in God’s
nature. Peter said, “We are partakers of His divine nature.” 88 This
time I let God’s nature permeate through my being. I wanted
every fibre of my being to absorb His loveliness. I stayed there a
long time till I was drunk under the presence of heavy dew. I was
filled with joy, drinking in of His fullness. Paul wrote there is
fullness in Christ that is available.89

Glory School Activation90

2 Peter 1:4
89
Colossians 2:10

February 7th 2011
50

The prophetess Patricia King has an activation session at her


glory school; where she teaches how the Holy Spirit leads us
personally into realms where pictures become to the imagination
a reality. What you believe you see, you have. She mentioned a
sister who saw angels all the time, teaching her to see by hearing
the Holy Spirit tell her where the angels were in the room. After
that, whenever she saw beams of light she knew angels were
there.

She testified how Prophet Bob Jones held her hands and said,
“Up, up, up” and described what she saw in her imagination as
she was going up. She saw mountains tipped with snow and
eagles on top.

While participating in this activation, the Holy Spirit took me up


into heaven and I saw fields green and ready for harvest. Then I
saw two large mountains that merged into each other becoming
one. In the middle of the mountain was a glacier frozen over a
sea of glass. Overlooking the glacier was a house. It was a
mansion in the mountains. I heard the Lord say it was His winter
house.

Suddenly I realized the four seasons on earth pertained to His


four faces. I thought of the four corners of the earth and how the
four angels protected and overshadowed the earth. 91

I thought of the tree of life. 92 It was glistening like shimmering


silver with a single red apple which looked glorious. I was told to
take and eat the apple. I did and life flowed within me. Then I

91
Revelation 7:1
92
Revelation 22:2
51

saw an orange and then a banana, a peach, and then a pear, an


avocado and then a bunch of grapes. I remembered the twelve
kinds of fruits growing each month on the tree. I saw the leaves
and took some for the healing of Odisha.

In the next encounter the Holy Spirit told me to reach out for a
scroll. I took two scrolls which I opened and read. One had the
word ‘Adoption’ written on it, reminding me I was adopted by
God.93 I put that scroll into my spirit. Then the Holy Spirit showed
me the seven Spirits that were tutoring me. 94 I cried at their feet,
especially in front of the Spirit of the fear of the LORD.95

The Holy Spirit showed me abeautiful mansion on the side of a


mountain covered with snow, standing on what looked like a
glacier. It was a double story home, oblong and brown with a
slopping roof. It looked decorated as though it was Christmas
and I was able to look inside.

Suddenly the mansion changed into a square golden mansion.


The Holy Spirit asked if these mansions appealed to me. I replied
to the Holy Spirit that I did not want these things and would prefer
to have a heart that could see and understand more clearly the
things of God.96

The Holy Spirit heard me, for I was suddenly in the river of life
again and the crystal clear water was washing my spirit. The river
sanctifies our heart by caressing it with waves of love. The Spirit
told me to dive deeper into the river as there were deeper
93
Ephesians 1:5
94
Revelation 3:1
95
Isaiah 11:2
96
Psalm 51:10
52

realms. As I dived in deeper, the water overpowered my earthly


thoughts, helping me to stay focused on the things shown.

The Holy Spirit said, “Swim deeper and see the beautiful realms
He has made.” I swam deeper and deeper. I looked and saw the
river bed was covered with gem stones, radiating light, shinning
so bright, especially near the waterfall.

As I swam deeper I saw a beautiful treasure chest lying on the


bottom of the river. An angel was guarding the chest. As I swam
near the treasure chest the angel encouraged me to look inside.
When I opened it I saw a golden crown with gemstones on it.
There were golden chains with medals having gemstones on
them. Also there were kingly rods of authority and royal orbs. The
angel told me to take and to wear them. He specifically told me to
tell my children to dive down deep into Father’s heart and find the
treasure chest He has waiting for them.

Suddenly I was overwhelmed by the Holy Spirit’s generosity and


was conscious I was in the Spirit. It is like our spirit wakes up to
the deeper, wider, higher levels that are surrounding us. I began
to cry.

Suddenly I was sitting with Father in His garden where He


offered me eye salve to anoint my eyes. I had requested Him to
see more clearly the things of God and as I smeared the eye
salve on my eyes, it began and I saw more clearly.

Hanging in the universe I saw a huge heart-shaped fire. Jesus


was standing at the door of the heart on a pathway that led to the
centre of the fire. His hand was stretched out beckoning me to
come and walk with Him into Father’s heart. I walked with Him to
53

the outside of Father’s heart. The consuming flames of fire were


so intense it was simply too hot. Jesus stayed constant, looked at
me and said, “Don’t fear. Go in.” I closed my eyes and took a
leap of faith through the flames of fire and landed on a sandy sea
shore inside His heart.

I was so relieved as I saw a calm blue ocean lie before me. An


angel smiled and said, “Dive in.” And so again I dived deep and
swam as far as I could till I saw another treasure chest. Oh what
mysteries! Oh what delights! Oh what treasures await those who
will go deeper into Father’s heart? Father stood by the side of the
treasure chest and opened it saying, “Behold there is nothing
secret that shall not be revealed. Nothing hidden, that shall not
come to light. Tell your children what you have seen. Keep
reminding them, all I have is theirs.”

Then Father told me to drink. I drank so much till I was full. He


knew I was thirsty and I knew He was releasing His seven Spirits
into me. I was so intoxicated by the Holy Spirit I could feel His
quickening power as it flowed through me. My conscience was
spiritually aware that I was under the power of God and
absorbing the glory of the LORD into my spirit. Father smiled.

A visit with the Saints

Father picked me up in His arms and spoke to me about the


things He was creating. He asked, “What do you think about my
creations?” I said, “They are all perfect. Magnificent.” Then
Father told an angel to show me more and I was back at God’s
throne. The angel said, “Come and meet the others who sit on
thrones.”
54

I saw Paul and Moses seated very near to Christ. I went to greet
and thanked them for the revelations they gave in the scriptures.
Then I saw John and Peter and thanked them for the profound
impact their words had in my life. While looking at them I realized
I needed these saints to lay their hands on me to impart the
grace for more of their level of spiritual understanding. So I went
to Paul and knelt before Him and he put his hand on my head
and imparted spiritual understanding. Then I knelt before John
and asked for a greater revelation of God’s love. I knelt before
Moses and asked for the spirit of meekness and revelation. From
Peter I received boldness and an enlarged heart. Isaiah came
and I asked him for prophetic insight into the kingdom of God and
Christ. Ezekiel released understanding of the open heavens,
visions of God and the angelic realms. Samuel imparted
prophetic anointing and David, great faith. I finished by thanking
Matthew, Mark and Luke for their glorious gospels.

Then I knelt before them all collectively and thanked them for all
they had imparted to me through the scriptures. I thanked and
honoured them, desiring the same grace they had received from
Christ, would abide in me. Then the scene changed again and I
was sitting at the feet of Christ on His throne and simultaneously
sitting at the feet of Father (who was also on the throne), and I
was also on earth in my prayer room. I was conscious I was in
three places at the same time.

One time I went suddenly into a vision of Genesis eighteen


where Abraham saw three visitors. While the three divine
persons were walking towards Abraham I stared at them trying to
see their faces, but they were covered. The Trinity wanted to do
a new miraculous work upon the earth and they couldn’t do it
55

without telling their friend Abraham. The words, “Anything too


hard for the Lord?” kept running through my spirit. The Lord had
come to fulfil His Covenant promise of a supernatural miraculous
child for Abraham. I understood how the Holy Spirit cut Sarah’s
heart with the word, “Is anything too hard for the Lord” and Isaac
was conceived. It was God’s supernatural miraculous work. I saw
them sitting under a tree enjoying communion with Abraham. The
vision impressed upon me how much the Lord enjoyed
fellowshipping with His saints.

I heard the words “And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever,”97 and thought of how David loved being in God’s house.
David obviously visited God’s house in the heavenly places and
enjoyed fellowship with God for He saw His Lord sitting at
Father’s right hand on the throne. 98 Surely the prophets
experienced similar encounters? God has a dining table in His
house and enjoys fellowship with us at His table. I realised that’s
why we celebrate the Lord ’s Supper. It’s the Lord’s Table. I went
in Spirit to God’s table five times that week and spent time
fellowshipping with God.

During that season, I was at the throne of grace and saw Jesus
standing covered in thick golden oil with His Holy Spirit swirling
around Him. I saw a white mist which was all around His feet and
it spread in all directions throughout heaven. I knelt in the mist
and laid all my agenda’s at His feet. I submitted my life, and my
family members to His will, requesting Him to use us in Odisha. I
saw the Father and Son sitting on their throne and talking to each

97
Psalm 23:6
98
Psalm 110:1
56

other. Jesus said to His Father, “Shall we tell him what we are
planning in our visitation?” This was repeated several times.

Jesus the King of Glory

One time the Lord took me to the Garden of Eden. I saw Adam
and Eve were so full of the Holy Spirit that both Father and Christ
enjoyed fellowshipping with them. I saw Adam’s spirit was
covered and indwelt with a glory light from the Holy Spirit.

Suddenly I was propelled forward in time, and saw Jesus’ blood


giving me access to receive Christ’s life and glory. The glory God
gave to Jesus, He has also given to us, so that we can be one
57

with Him.99 This oneness is in the Spirit of the Father, and Son.
We have been restored to the glory that Adam had in Eden. The
Last Adam; Jesus, has restored the glory of God to man. So now
we have been called to pursue the glory of our Lord Jesus
Christ.100

Firstly I saw the blood of Jesus on the heavenly throne. On His


blood rested the living water of His Spirit life, which offers life to
all who drink it. I saw over-laying the water was the Spirit of glory.
The Holy Spirit was revealing, “There are three that bear witness
on earth; the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three
agree as one.”101 The glory was resting on the water and Jesus
blood.

God’s Spirit is so full of His glory that He longs to give it away.


Paul declares we believers have already been glorified because
Father has freely given us all things. 102 Father has a loving
compassionate Spirit that enjoys giving everything He has away.
He just loves to give His glory to His children to see what they will
do with it. We have inherited a kingdom of power and glory.

Next, I saw King Jesus was dressed in majestic royal garments


of red colour. The colour of His garments changed and He was
then in a golden garment. Then I saw He was sitting on a white
stallion with a long white fur cloak covered with eyes. This cloak
flowed over the back of the horse and touched the ground. His
majesty was awesome. Jesus is the King of glory in every
respect of His nature, character and personality.

58

Jesus then requested me to accompany Him. As Jesus turned


around, out from the back of His body, He also appeared in a
white garment quickly moving forward and calling me to
accompany Him to the garden. Suddenly He ascended the
throne in His royal garments to give a judgment. He had to
render justice for someone who was earnestly praying to Him.

He saw me staring in amazement at what just happened, as His


white garment came from within His royal garment, as He
ascended the throne. Jesus asked; “Why are you marvelling?
You will see many unusual things, more than this. Only believe!”
My understanding increased as to how He can be in several
places all at the same time, executing differing works. It’s the
glory He has within the Godhead and within Himself.

In another encounter I saw the Lord walking towards me in such


a bright shining light with lightening proceeding from His
hands.103 I was flooded with the love of God like never before. I
got so full of the Holy Spirit that it seemed like lights were
exploding inside of me as I received more light in my being. In
these encounters I’ve learnt to honour the Holy Spirit and His
accompanying spirits that stand before me and to ask that the
light they carry be transferred into me.

Recently the Spirit of wisdom has been appearing before me in a


bright shining white light. 104 She is so sensitive that I must be
careful how I talk to her. She is so meek and incredibly pure and
bright. I’ve never met beings as humble as the seven Spirits of
God. One time the Spirit of understanding stood behind wisdom
103
Habakkuk 3
104
Proverbs 4:7-9, 8:1-21
59

like a shy young woman. She made sure she was welcome
before she manifested. I was so stunned by her meekness it
caused me to repent regarding the meekness of God.

Another time I saw Christ standing on His throne in a full blaze of


glory brighter than the sun. He told me to stand by His side. I did
and it was like two candles standing side by side and their flames
becoming one. Teresa of Avila had used the same metaphor and
it captured my imagination. I yielded to Christ’s Spirit and allowed
His virtues to flow into me. I melted under the sheer beauty of His
glory and loveliness. It was like He was the tall light and I was the
little light radiating what He was in me.105

I asked the seven Spirits of Christ to guide me. 106 They made me
kneel down at His side and expressed love to the beloved Jesus
through adoration. I knew the fullness of God was in Him and He
was allowing that fullness to flow into me.107 I was overwhelmed
by His goodness, presence and love. 108 As I was kneeling He
said, “Come” as He took me to the gate of His house. The gate
was huge and a vine was growing, covering the entrance of the
gate with glory.

The Cloud of His Presence

After soaking again for one hour I was filled with clouds of glory. I
heard the Spirit say. “You must pull from the unseen realms your
inheritance. You have grace to go into the cloudy realms.”

I understood that what I see the Father giving in the glory cloud
from His invisible realm, must be prophesied to those on the
earth under my sphere of influence. The Spirit said, “Get the true
revelation from inside the clouds and prophesy it.”109

Then the Lord said, “Son of man what do you see?” I knew
Ezekiel had seen an army of dry bones. 110 He said “Look and see
the invisible realms of heaven. Do not look at the circumstances
on earth but look at the things you cannot see with your natural
eyes. The things you decree should come forth from the
heavenly patterns.111 Everything is a copy of the heavenlies.”

If God can raise the apostle John into the heavens to see His
throne then He can do the same for you. 112 As the sons of the
kingdom we can see this as an invitation for all to come up
higher. Paul saw three heavens and you can too! 113 Come up
higher!

I’ve come to discern God’s presence in every cloud. Father fills


every cloud with the water of life to pour forth upon His creatures.
Recognizing God in the clouds all started when I saw and heard
a cloud talking to me in heaven. At first I thought it was an angel
but then Father clearly said, “No it’s me.” 114 Then whenever I was
in heaven visiting the villages I would look up and see Father in
the cloud smiling at me. I realized the Father spoke to Jesus on
the mount of transfiguration, and to Moses on Mount Sinai and
the more I searched the scriptures I found Father was often
found in the cloud.

It seems Moses coined cloud language for the prophets. Moses


wrote of the clouds in Noah’s day that brought the judgment of
the flood. Father was certainly in the cloud that descended to talk
to Moses at the door of the tabernacle. 115 Moses often went into
the clouds to talk to God. The cloud went before Israel as a pillar
of cloud by day and a fire by night. 116 The glory cloud sat on the
ark in the tabernacle and so filled the house the priests could not
go inside it was so thick.117

Isaiah saw the Lord riding on clouds into Egypt, 118 and asked,
“Who are these who ride on the clouds?” 119 In David’s great
psalm he pictures God as coming in a cloud to rescue him.
Ezekiel saw God’s chariot inside the cloud. But it was when John
saw the Lord as an angel robed in a cloud that I began to realize
God wants His sons to be robed in clouds too. 120

You see I love riding with Him in His clouds. The angels ride on
the clouds and the apostles and prophets came along with Jesus
and judged the Old Testament age riding on the clouds. 121 God
used clouds to rescue Israel and at the same time it judged
Egypt.122

As I grow in understanding of God the ‘Cloudy One,’ 123 it is my


desire to ride with Him in the clouds, visiting parts of the earth
and the universe in the future. I will see those of you who believe
in clouds, riding on the clouds, in the heavenly places.

Father’s Plans

Another time when I saw the Father and Son I again asked them
for the seven Spirits that were on Christ to tutor me. As I made
the request a strong anointing covered my mind. Then I saw the
Father and Son lying down and peering over a map, discussing
their future plans. The Son agreed with the Father’s ideas. The
Holy Spirit was waiting on the Father, happy to disclose what was
coming up next upon the earth.

I was led to contemplate how the Son waited an eternity to


become a man. He waited three days for the resurrection, fifty
days for Pentecost, and then thirty more years for His Kingdom to
be consummated. So I concluded, if Jesus waited for His Father
to make all things submit to His rulership of love, and then waits
for the next part of the plan of the ages, I should learn to be a lot
more patience and wait on the Father also.124

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit were standing beside each other
as one royal family and I saw the Son preparing to speak the
worlds into existence. The Spirit of wisdom stood beside the

124
Psalm 110:1
64

Son.125 Seven Spirits proceeded from the Father through the Holy
Spirit as Father breathed in and out. The Holy Spirit breathed
wisdom through the Son, and then understanding. The Spirit of
the fear of the LORD permeated Jesus’ being so that He only did
what the Father suggested. Jesus would not deviate from
Father’s plan.

It was a revelation from the Holy Spirit how sons should respond
to the plans proceeding from the Father. Sons must have the
mind of the Father revealed to them by the Holy Spirit and submit
to it.

As I was looking at all the meek and gentle spirits in heaven I


remembered what Solomon said, “As a man thinks in his spirit so
is he.”126 I thought about us humans being so stubborn in our
thinking. We come into the world with no perspectives. The ones
we now have are the accumulation of thoughts we have picked
up from others. The dominant thoughts in a country, society, or
church are faithfully passed down from generation to generation
through the leaders. We hope our leaders are speaking truth but
eventually find out differently.

I recalled how my plans changed over the last decade. I had a


solid knowledge of the Bible from the Brethren perspective but
had a shock when I received the ‘baptism’ in the Holy Spirit. Then
when pursuing the prophetic gifts, 127 I was surprise to find out
prophetic people didn’t all think the same about God’s end-time
plans.
125
Proverbs 8:23-31
126
Proverbs 23:7
127
1 Corinthians 14:1
65

This made me realize that there were a lot of different


perspectives being held by a lot of nice people. So I stay with
one dominant thought, “If Jesus and the apostles wrote it, then it
is the truth!” My thoughts and plans must stay in line with that,
even if I didn’t understand it at the time. I believed Father showed
Jesus the plans for the future.

I recalled when I finally yielded to the full preterits view of the


Book of Revelation, I was greatly liberated, and God’s plans
opened up. I’ve been free to think about God’s eternal plans for
Odisha ever since. I stay faithful to the Word of God but free to
see it from God’s perspectives and plans.

Once having researched every view I was examining, I found


people’s perspectives stayed in-line with the ministry or college
they were associated with. They are paid support to stay in line;
whether its theology, eschatology, charisma, or the kingdom.
When others saw that I was changing my plans and perspectives
according to the Father’s plans they separated.

Choosing to be different, I embraced Father’s plan for Odisha


and decided Father is always right and my thoughts must line up
with His. I saw my perspective of God’s plan change from God
wanting to destroy this earth, to Him continually filling this earth
with His glory through us.

Those with this mind of Christ receive and agree with every
thought proceeding from the Holy Spirit. The Father wants all His
children to have this kind of mind-set and fit in with His plans like
Jesus does.
66

I saw the Father and Son peering over the plans and mutually
agreeing they should include time for humans. They are above
and outside of time; and as their universe has no end, I believe
there will be no end of time on the earth. And why not? The
gospel promises all we need for all eternity.
67

Seven Levels

It is good to revisit the revelations I received, using them as an


entry point or as a doorway to another encounter, for there’s
always more the Holy Spirit will reveal. One time I received
ecstatic joy over the truth of Christ being in me. Joy caused my
spirit to rise, “In His Presence is fullness of joy.” 128 And, “If you be
risen with Christ seek things above...”129

I saw what seemed to be like seven levels surrounding His


throne which were circular and spiralling up into the universe
growing wider and wider as they ascended from God. The levels
going up looked similar to the rings around the planet Saturn.
They were circling bands of glory light ascending from the throne
of God, which is in the centre of the universe and were
continually expanding as they stretched beyond the far parts of
the universe.

Then I saw below the throne of God, seven levels that were
ascending towards the throne which were also expanding and
stretching throughout the universe. The lower level was very
wide and living within it were billions of humans who possessed
faith in Christ. They dwelt in bliss in towns, valleys and mountains
which were scattered everywhere. On the higher levels as one
ascended up, they were of smaller dimensions, for those who
came under Christ’s rulership.

On the highest level were the saints, the martyrs, apostles and
prophets. They were seated on thrones. I saw the Father and

128
Psalm 16:11
129
Colossians 3:1
68

Jesus were rejoicing over all the various levels. It is amazing to


see Father’s love for Christ’s Body, the Church. It is His mystical
Body which ministers to all within the various realms in His
kingdom. Father loves to be engaged within the lives of His
creatures as He goes forward ever increasing the realms under
His domain.

Over these seven ascending levels below the throne, I saw the
seven levels above the throne descend and over-shadowed
them. The levels above the throne comprised of angels who
minister to the Lord. They were all on various levels; archangels,
seraphim, cherubim and a variety of angels that were close to the
Lord. I recognised the Angel of His presence on the highest level.

On the other levels I saw angelic armies. One army of angels had
faces looking like lions and another angelic army had faces of
eagles. Also, I saw an army of angels riding golden chariots
through the heavens. These seven levels of angels compliment
the levels that were given to the humans.

The throne of God unites the two realms; the angelic and the
human, so that they can minister together to each other. Christ
the Creator Redeemer united the two realms on the cross. This is
so the blessings of the heavenly kingdom can pour continually
within the earthly realms, providing humans with the ability to rise
up into their heavenly position. We can rise, because we are in
Christ who has already risen. He has paved the way for us and
He is in us enabling us to rise higher.

Following this I saw the Holy Spirit breathing upon people till they
were filled with love. When their love was glowing, they were able
69

to move to the next level. There is always a test of our love


before we can rise higher. The Holy Spirit orchestrates
circumstances so that our love for others is manifested.

After a severe test of choosing to love someone who was trying


my patience, I heard the Holy Spirit say, “You can rise higher
now.” Staying full of love, graciousness, kindness, goodness and
patience is the key to ascending to higher levels.

I saw Jesus and the Holy Spirit stand before the Father and He
was filling them with love. As Jesus and the Holy Spirit spoke,
Father was proceeding out from their mouths in loving kindness.

Then the Father stood at the side of Jesus and released the Holy
Spirit of life giving water through Him to us. His life giving water is
full of love. Drink it, become intoxicated with it, and we will find
we rise to higher levels in God.
70

Christ’s ‘Mystical’ Body

I saw the outline of the ‘body’ of Christ represented as a human


body superimposed and lying over the whole universe. It looked
like a three dimensional transparent body which one could see
through. Within His body the earth appeared so small like a tiny
dot within the universe.

Then I saw the Spirit of Christ hovering like an eagle over the
earth. He was embracing all the earth in His loving arms. I
understood it to be Christ’s ‘mystical’ body containing the fullness
of Him filling all and in all. 130 I was aware of the immensity of
Christ’s omnipresent Spirit filling the universe.

As I looked more carefully, I saw a tear in the centre of this


spiritual body, through which heavenly glory flowed towards the
earth. Christ’s body torn on the cross had opened a way for
God’s Spirit life to flow to the earth. The Holy Spirit filled Christ’s
glorified spiritual body with wave after wave of glory till the glory
filled the entire universe.

Following this I saw a channel of glory-light stream from heaven


to earth providing a way for humans to ascend to God. Christ’s
body provided a portal, a passage way from earth to God.
Christ’s body was Jacob’s ladder through which I could ascend
into the heavenlies.

The vision changed and Christ’s spiritual body appeared like a


tabernacle tent. The Holy Spirit began to teach about the Old
Testament tabernacle which pointed to the Ark and was also

130
Ephesians 1:23
71

God’s throne upon the earth during the Old Covenant. The Holy
Spirit explained how Christ’s spiritual ‘body’ is now the place from
where the Spirit of Christ rules the earth in love. He explained
when love sits on the throne in our spirits, glory flows.

Next the Holy Spirit showed that the table of showbread was a
type of the Father’s dining table where we sit and commune with
Him. As the Holy Spirit pointed to the golden candlestick it
suddenly transformed into Jesus body, that was full of light.
Inside Jesus’ body of light I saw another golden candlestick with
seven lamps radiating intense light throughout His body. I then
understood the seven Spirits of God were radiating light
throughout Christ body.131As I invited these seven Spirits to shine
in me, the light of the knowledge of God flowed into me. Christ is
the light.

Afterwards I saw Jesus as the King of Glory seated on the throne


in Zion with hosts of angels all around, singing and praising. Zion
is God’s government place in the heavens. Surrounding Zion I
also saw countless galaxies and universes.

I saw Zion as a realm within the city of New Jerusalem. Inside


New Jerusalem were mansions that God had made for His sons
and daughters. His sons and daughters that rule are the
corporate Son of God. They are His king priests who reign over
realms of heaven. They are the head in this ‘body’ of Christ.

The sons and daughters rule within Christ’s body through Christ’s
Spirit which is in them. I saw the sons and daughters dancing
with Christ. I asked the Holy Spirit why Christ likes to dance with

131
Revelation 5:6
72

His sons and daughters. The Holy Spirit said dancing is the most
public form of intimacy two or more can have. I then started to
dance with Christ and felt Him release His glory into me. I sensed
it was the glory of His wisdom, understanding, knowledge,
counsel, power and reverential fear that flowed into me. I asked
again for more.

I danced into Christ’s body and spun around in the spirit entering
into what appeared to be Father’s and then Holy Spirit’s part.
Standing there in spirit, the Trinity walked into me and my spirit
filled more. Then the Holy Spirit said, “You’re growing in the
knowledge of Christ’s Spirit.”

As a son of God I felt led to release glory into Odisha and prayed
for the local Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) for
Jharsuguda. I thanked Jesus for calling me to Odisha, to which
He replied. “I am preparing things. I am preparing you for what is
about to happen.” I replied, “Lord please advise me what to do!
Let your Spirit of wisdom advise me!” He replied. “Just keep
coming up here to fellowship and I will advise you.”

I saw Odisha filled with waves of glory. All the fields of Odisha
were full of a glorious harvest. The trees were producing new
fruit and the Holy Spirit said, “Odisha will be the head and not the
tail.”

The Spirit of Christ


73

I asked the Lord, “I want to know how Christ can be formed in


us?”132 The Holy Spirit pointed to the New Covenant, made by
Jesus with His Father, which was revealed at the last supper. 133
In the New Covenant, Jesus revealed the promises that show we
can partake of the divine nature.134 The Holy Spirit revealed the
importance of dwelling in Father’s house, of staying full of the
Spirit, and of believing the ‘glory’ Jesus has already given to us.

While contemplating how Father had put Christ’s Spirit within us,
I heard Jesus say,135 “My Father has put My Spirit in you. You
decide how much of my Spirit you want to host.” 136 Suddenly I
understood the Son’s Spirit was put within us to assist us in
becoming sons of God, rulers of His universe. He reminded me
why the epistle to Galatia was written. The Galatians came under
the dominion of a “religious spirit” instead of staying under the
dominion of the gentle Spirit of Christ. 137 The Galatians had
formerly received the Spirit of Christ and as long as they trusted
in His grace and love, He dwelt within their spirits. The gentle
nature of Christ was formed in them as they allowed His Spirit to
abide in them.138

Suddenly I saw Christ standing inside the sun. 139 The radiance of
the sun’s light surrounded Him and I saw seven Spirits flowing
over and through Him to us. Jesus yielded and was taught by

132
Galatians 4:19
133
John chapters 13 to 17.
134
John 17:21; 14:17; 15:4, 2 Peter 1:4.
135
John 17:22
136
Galatians 4:6
137
Galatians 4:9
138
Galatians 5:22-23
139
Psalm 19:4-6
74

these seven Spirits that flowed continually within God’s Spirit. 140
Those who invited and allowed Christ’s Spirit to flow within them
received the seven Spirits. I saw the Spirit of wisdom,
understanding, and knowledge manifested out of them also.

I understood that the Galatians chose to be taught by religious


spirits, as they thought the knowledge of God was above simple
trust in the Holy Spirit. They denied the Holy Spirit leading them
into an intimate relationship with the Father, who loves to walk
hand in hand with every creature. Father enjoys living life ‘in’ His
creatures.

I saw Christ when He was a little child and watched as the seven
Spirits taught Him His identity as the Son of God. He was
baptized with the Holy Spirit and received authority and power to
do miracles. He was under the seven Spirits of God until the
sacrifice of Calvary. He said, “Wisdom is justified of her
children.”141 He became perfect.142 Christ’s body was raised by
the Holy Spirit.143 When Jesus ascended and was glorified in
heaven a divine exchange took place. It was like the Holy Spirit
said, “Because you obeyed your Father while you were on earth,
now I will obey you and pour out your Spirit on whoever asks for
it.”

This Spirit of Christ rules the new creation body of Christ. We


have received the Spirit of Christ. 144Like a father’s spirit is passed
on to his child so we believers have been given the Spirit of
140
Revelation 5:6
141
Matthew 11:19
142
Hebrews 5:9
143
Romans 8:11
144
Romans 8:9
75

Christ. Adam died and Christ’s Spirit became the new Fatherly
Spirit that gives life to all His children.

The Spirit of Christ within us has the seven Spirits of God. These
seven Spirits teach us our identity as the sons of God. We grow
spiritually when we receive their tutoring. They offer words of
wisdom and knowledge which have the power to release Gods
power and glory when we speak them.

It is Christ’s Spirit that is in us and the Father who dwells in


Christ’s Spirit now dwells in ours.145

Father has already blessed us with all spiritual blessings in


heavenly places in Christ.146 These blessings include Christ’s
glory. I finally understood that Christ in heaven has already
poured out His ‘glory’ to me, as Christ is in me. It’s my
conscience that was just not spiritually aware of it. Now every
spiritual blessing includes visions, words of wisdom, discerning of
spirits, miracles and all the gifts of His Spirit that are in Christ in
me. Therefore I possess these gifts not because of me, but
because Christ in me possesses them. I was just not believing
and exercising what’s already in me.

Christ who dwells within is constantly sharing these things to my


spirit, purely by His grace and favour. Paul wrote how God
revealed to him that Christ was in him. 147 And Paul said, “Christ
lives in me,”148 It was like lights went on inside my conscience
and I started saying, “Christ lives in me.” Christ is being formed in
145
2 Corinthians 3:17
146
Ephesians 1:3
147
Galatians 1:6
148
Galatians 2:20
76

me because, “The Father has sent the Spirit of His Son (Holy
Spirit) into my heart.”149 I kept repeating, “I am in Christ, and
Christ is in me.”

Paul also wrote, “You seek proof that Christ is speaking in me.” 150
Oh that challenged me. Others must see evidence that Christ
lives in me. Finally I understood why others emphasized, “Christ
in you is your hope of glory.” 151 Obviously their conscience woke
up to the truth that Christ glory was within them. I concluded
therefore that my duty as a son of God was to release Christ’s
glory to the people in my realm and to Odisha. I saw that as a
son of God representing His house, it was my duty to release
Christ’s glory to a needy world. Christ died in order to live in me
and release through me His realms of glory.

The Mind of Christ

I was resting in the Lord and very soon was in the Spirit of Christ.
I was conscious I was in heaven walking alongside the river of
life together with the Lord. I put my hand into the river to drink

149
Galatians 4:6
150
2 Corinthians 13:3
151
Colossians 1:27
77

living water and then resumed my walk with the Lord. My mind
was distracted and when I returned, Jesus gently asked, “Where
have you been?” The meekness and tenderness of His voice
crushed my pride. I told Him it was difficult to stay centred on Him
and asked for an increase in His Spirit to help me focus. I sensed
the Holy Spirit wrapped Himself around me. He was very
precious at this moment and I asked, “How will my mind ever be
like the mind of Christ if I can’t focus?” The Lord smiled.

Suddenly I was aware of the anointing on Jesus at His baptism.


The Holy Spirit hovered over Jesus crowning Him with God’s
seven Spirits which infused His being. The Holy Spirit led Jesus
and lifted His Spirit into heaven so that He sat at the right hand of
God while His body was still on the earth. 152

The Holy Spirit taught Christ’s conscience so He could be in two


places at one time. I asked the Holy Spirit to explain how Jesus
could do that. Then I saw the Holy Spirit and Father’s Spirit rising
up out of Jesus and making a pathway into the heavens. It was
like a shaft of rainbow colours were going with the Father in
heaven. The seven Spirits were coming and going to Jesus and
were teaching Him about His Father and creation. Jesus was
conscious He was the Son of God and had spoken and released
the glory and power of the Father at creation.

Then I saw Christ as a young man growing in the Spirit of


wisdom which abided in Him. The Holy Spirit told me wisdom
instructs us the same way. I cried, “Lord, let the mind of Christ be

152
John 3:13
78

in me.” Then I was reminded to let His mind be in me which was


in Christ,153 to allow it to be in me.

I knew I must be meek. So I took the posture of one who knew


nothing until the Holy Spirit spoke. I understood through waiting
in His presence, drinking in of His Spirit and being led by His
Spirit, that the Spirit would reveal to me the mind of Christ.

By this time I could sense the dew of His presence was getting
heavier and a thick cloud of His Spirit was covering and purifying
my mind preparing me for another revelation. He said, “As you
allow God’s Spirits to flow within and fill up your spirit, soul and
mind; so your thoughts will be subdued, cleaned and clear, so
they can be influenced by my thoughts, ideas, and pictures.”

An understanding of related thoughts on the mind of Christ


flooded my mind, and it was like I knew without knowing how that
knowledge was obtained. Usually a word within the mind gives a
thought, or idea and as I follow that thought it leads to another
and then another, resulting in the light of understanding.

But the Spirit’s way of giving knowledge, seems to be, that as we


receive His words on one subject, a whole body of information on
that subject tags along with it and you just know. This is the mind
of Christ on a subject, supernaturally given to our spirit.

I saw a ‘seed’ that represented the divine nature of God. This


seed, the Son of God, entered the Virgin Mary’s womb and the
Word became flesh. The Holy Spirit explained how the Son of
Man waited till His Spirit grew into manhood. I saw Jesus when
He was twelve years of age in the temple and at the same time
153
Philippians 2:2
79

saw him as the Son of God seated at God’s right hand in heaven.
He was conscious He was in Jesus’ body growing in earthly
knowledge and yet at the same time was conscious of being the
Son of God at the side of the Father. I concluded, if Jesus was
patient and waited till He was thirty years of age, then so I should
be patient for my spirit to grow to maturity.

I saw the follow thoughts flow from having the mind of Christ:

“As a new creation, born of God’s Spirit, I am connected to


heaven continually. I am seated in heavenly places in Christ.”

“I am in Christ’s Spirit and Christ is in me for a Divine reason.”

“I have been given exceedingly great grace and so must rule


dispensing grace, goodness and love.”

“Jesus wants me to be where He is in heaven so I can behold His


glory and release it to others.”

“God is happy all the time. So I must be continually filled with


joy.”

“God has made us to be a blessing. He has blessed us with all


His spiritual blessings in order to release them to others.”

“God has crowned us with glory, honour and dominion.”

“The reign of sin and spiritual death has finished so I must


witness His eternal life and immortality to others.”
80

“I think on Christ’s heavenly life; how He is shining and radiating


glory; full of energy; never tiring; always pulsating life. He is
forever running forward, loving, being the life in all His creatures.”

“He thinks how mortality can be swallowed up by His eternal life.”

“How I can have a glorious spiritual body like His, and be


conformed to Christ’s heavenly image.”

“He has given us believers His kingdom to rule.”

“He has given us access to His secrets, mysteries and plans.”

“He has given angels to work with us and for us in order to rule
the realms appointed to us. Heaven and earth has been joined
together by Christ.”

“We are heirs and joint heirs of Christ and rule and reign with
Him.”

“Christ showed us what the Father wants us to do on earth: to


heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and fill the earth
with glory. Freely we receive this ministry, freely we give it.”

“We bring every negative thought unto obedience to this mind of


Christ.”

I Love the Way You Love Me


81

This song, “I love the way you love me,” of Alberto Rivera led me
into another encounter. The song caused me to cry as I recalled
His goodness, mercy and loving-kindness which led me from my
birth, to my salvation, through to my walk to India and to today. I
saw His loving heart was so gentle. I repeatedly played the song
until I saw His cross and the Father’s face as He looked upon His
Son, the Lamb on the cross. I expressed passionate love
towards Him and experienced a deeper love than ever before. I
ran to His loving arms and embraced Him. I hugged Him tight as I
felt His face next to my face. He put His hand on my face so I
held His hand and wanted it should never go.

I continued embracing His presence. We sat on a bench before


His throne. He continued to embrace me. His love was
overwhelming as I hugged Him close. His tender gentleness
melted me as wave after wave of liquid love flowed through me. I
kept falling at His feet in worship and He kept lifting me up. This
continued for the longest time till my heart and hands became so
heavy with His presence. The atmosphere felt thick with the Holy
Spirit. My mind bowed and thanked Him for giving me that
encounter. ‘Grace’ is the divine enabling that causes us to
experience Him intimately.

I learnt that the Father often just wants us to sit quietly near Him
and not speak. A smile of approval is sufficient. “God is a
rewarder of those that diligently seek Him.” 154 This verse
encouraged me to stay in the Holy Spirit and to continue to ask
for more. As the song came to an end I was in a trance like state,

154
Hebrews 11:6
82

so overwhelmed by the Holy Spirit that I feared to move lest I


disturbed Him.

The more I yield to His Holy Spirit the more I can feel Him rising
within and drawing me deeper into grace. I was captivated by
Father’s smiling face. He loves to talk but does not always want
to talk. Just having Him near was enough.

I revisited the garden and the table where Father sits and looked
at the chair where Christ sits and sighed. I don’t need a new
revelation of Him every day. Just resting in His pleasure and
enjoying Him is enough. His presence got thicker and heavier
then and great peace falls upon me. I sensed I was abiding in
Him. It was enough. I was satisfied.

I heard Him say, “Do you want to dance.” My heart said yes. I
stood up and put my arms around Him and waltzed. He loves to
lead and I find it hard to follow. He stops. I relax and tell Him He’s
the loveliest person in the universe. I hold the Lord in a tight
embrace. Check to check. Nose to nose. I can sense Him. The
aroma of His presence intoxicates. I am my Beloveds and He is
mine. I dance with Him for I love the way Jesus loves me.
83

My Birthday Gift 2011

I spent four hours resting in the Lord’s Presence. His meekness


captivated my heart and as I yielded to Christ’s Spirit within me I
went into the spirit again. As I moved from scene to scene
scriptures were running through my spirit. I saw, “Without faith it
was impossible to please Him for he that comes to God must
believe that He rewards by offering fellowship with Him.” 155 I went
to Christ’s throne and had the confidence to sit on a throne next
to Him and offer prayers for Jharsuguda and Odisha. I was
wearing a white garment. Then I went to Father’s throne and sat
at His feet. An angel came with a drink which I drank requesting
the Spirit of wisdom and revelation. The angel was observing
how thirsty I was, so I drank more.

Suddenly Father stepped off His throne and stood in front of it.
He called me and said to come with Him. We walked together. I
was beginning to understand how much he loves to walk with
humans. I remembered Enoch, Abraham and Moses, who
walked with God because they were meek in heart. A holy light
flooded my spirit as His graciousness infused me.

As we walked He was joined by His Son. We all stood together


on the throne. Father asked me. “Where were you when we
made the world?” I couldn’t answer. Suddenly I saw all the
children of God like babies in their spirit bodies standing behind
the Father and Son and rejoicing in all that the Godhead were
creating. And I was there! What a revelation! What a birthday gift!

Mission Testimony

155
Hebrews 11:6
84

The following is a testimony of what we found happening in our


children’s home as a result of the continual resting in God’s
presence.

1. A peace that passed understanding permeated everyone, (it’s


called the kingdom realm). It caused everyone living in the
campus to adopt a spirit of peace and oneness. God works
invisibly influencing those creatures that let Him reign over them.

2. All the administrative and ‘building works’ of Faith Outreach


were completed on time. The Lord was orchestrating the rhythm
of the work, without us outwardly knowing it was Him. Afterwards
we all realised it was accomplished by His grace. He seems to
love working this way; invisibly hidden, but actively participating
in everything moving forward.

3. The finances for the construction works came in early. The


craftsmen appeared on time so we were encouraged to go ahead
and build. There was His touch of glory on the work.

4. The compound seemed to be overshadowed, as though we


are under the wings of God.

5. Everyone became careful to discern God’s will and obey what


He wished to do next.

6. There is an open Heaven in the office where the staffs gather


for morning prayer. The daily pray is different as we yield to Him
and continue till we can feel His tangible presence.

Experiences with Children


85

Jesus said, “Come, let’s walk deeper into the garden.” So I went
with the Lord passing the lush green fields into a field of red
roses. These red roses were calling out, “Greetings, John.” I
looked to Jesus and He said, “These are the flowers that you
have cultivated for me.” Suddenly I was in the church in
Jharsuguda with the children who came to the altar for prayer
and I saw myself giving them a flower in the form of prophesy
from the Lord.

Then I was back in heaven in the garden and saw a pink rose
with a child’s face in the flower. Then I saw a golden rose with
the face of a man I had not seen before but understood he would
be in the meetings later that day. I was told to tell the
congregation they were all flowers of great value, precious and
beautiful to Him.

I was led by the Holy Spirit, 156 to share with the children in our
children’s home in Odisha, about angels and how to receive
ministry from them.157 I shared on the gate of heaven and how
angels come down the ladder with gifts. 158 The Holy Spirit said,
“There are angels in the hall surrounding the girls.” I started
calling out the names of the gifts I was seeing in spirit as the
angels released them to the children. The children held out their
hands to receive spiritual gifts as the angels released gifts into
their lives.159

There was a strong powerful presence of God in the hall. I called


the children who had no father to come forward for prayer. So
156
8th-9th February 2011.
157
Hebrews 1:14
158
Genesis 28:12
159
Revelation 2:1
86

many children came forward. I saw the angels giving spiritual


gifts and scrolls to the girls and told them to put the scrolls into
their hearts by faith.160 Some girls received beautiful ornate
garments. Some received jewels. Others saw the words on their
scroll. One saw she received a crown, and others golden chains
of wisdom and authority. The presence of God was so thick on all
of us. It was wonderful

Conclusion

Jesus is always calling us to rest in the Lord and what better way
than to join Him in the imagination of our mind. The good
Shepherd is waiting to walk with us beside still waters in order to
restore our souls. Let us join Him in His heavenly places
beholding His glory and sit with Him on His throne. We believers
are sons and daughters of God, born of the Holy Spirit who have
every right to enjoy our inheritance in the heavenly places.
Father is always longing to walk and talk with us. Let’s join Him in
the garden and sit and visit with Him. Let’s walk with Him besides
still waters. Let’s ride with Him on angels wings. Let’s see what
God will show us in heavenly places. The possibilities are as
endless as eternity. Let’s enjoy the heavenly places now. It’s our
inheritance.
