I had heard it happen to others. But it had never happened to me. Until that night, that is.
I had just returned from a leaders’ meeting at Chroma
Church. It’s important to note that leaders’ meetings at Chroma are a little
different- around 100 of us gathered and for most of the time, it was a time of
celebration as we listened to the amazing stories happening in and around us.
At the end of the evening, we all went through a ‘fire
tunnel’. This is a kind of prayer tunnel with each of us walking between two
lines of people as they pray prayers of blessing and invite the Holy Spirit to move
upon us. And He did – move, that is.
By the time I got to the end of that praying tunnel, I was
drunk in the Spirit. This is not something to be feared but something entirely
Biblical (Acts 2: 15).
I drove home drunk (unlike alcohol, it’s considerably less
dangerous!) and I went to bed drunk.
It was then that it happened. I dreamed I was preaching at
Chroma. Nothing particularly strange there - I was due to preach in two Sunday’s
time. But the strange thing is that as I awoke, I could remember every word of
the preach, including the Bible verses I had used.
For me – for most of us – when I dream, it’s forgotten the moment
I awake. But not this time.
My planned preach was ditched and two Sunday’s later, I
spoke the words I had first received in that dream while still drunk in the
Spirit.
It was on revival. Of course it was. We are still in revival
at Chroma, and so grateful for all the Holy Spirit is doing with lives changed,
new people finding a faith in Christ, and many being healed physically.
And the talk? It can be found here, starting at the 1 hour
and 9 minute mark. Enjoy- and do visit us if you are not part of Chroma Church!
