I was a newborn in the spirit, and I began to receive dreams and visions and hearing the lover of my soul speak to me in my dreams. The Lord gave me this dream in 2014:
I could hear a man tell me that he loved me. I could hear the expectancy in his voice when he was waiting for me to respond, to tell him that I loved him too. I failed to answer because I had not met him before!. How could I say I loved Him when I had never met him. Those were my thoughts! He said to me that we were going to meet within a couple of weeks! (as we know that one day is like thousand years in God’s eye, and thousand years as one day – no one knows the day or the hour).
I agreed to meet him. I asked Him if it was okay that I went to the hairdresser first to have my hair done. At least I wanted to prepare for our meeting and look my best. He said that was okay, and that my mother was going to pay the hairdresser!.
I woke up from the dream with his voice clear in my mind.
Oh, foolish me, I thought by myself. I immediately knew that it was the Lord who had spoken to me in the dream. I didn’t see his face but could hear him like he was talking to me on the phone. I was upset over that I did not tell Him that I loved him too. I wrote down the dream and then forgot the dream for a while.
The funny thing is that I almost never go to a hairdresser. I use to cut my hair by myself.
Two and a half years later I was back in Norway. My mom had been hit by a bus and had to amputate her left leg above her knee. She was going to be 90 years old that year. She survived the accident. The healing process was a miracle. The staff at the hospital were surprised how my mom grew stronger for each day. Despite of her age and what she had been trough she was able to move back home. She was determined to continue to live at home with some extra help and care when she returned home in a wheelchair.
I knew how my mom loved to go to the hairdresser once in a while and decided to drive her to the salon. My mom claimed that I needed a haircut as well and she insisted to pay for it. So it happened that we sat beside each other that day in the hair salon April 26th 2017 and had our hair done.
That same night I had an extremely touching dream. I could clearly see in the dream that a man approached my house. Suddenly he came into my house. I could hear his footsteps approach my bedroom. When he entered my room I heard the floor made some noises since it needed to be repaired. If I was sleeping or not, I don’t know since it felt so real. I woke up and felt a big hand on my forehead. I was in awe, and said; “Thank you Jesus”. He indeed visited me and I even felt His hand.
Psalm 139:5 «You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.»
My experience is that the Lord always will confirm his word. He has several ways of doing that; It could be trough dreams and visions, signs and wonders, word by the Holy Spirit, even by using other people, like my mother as a confirmation with the hairdresser.
Encounters like this strengthens my faith in Jesus Christ when He manifests himself. The bible tells us that If we love Him, we will keep His commandments, and He will send His Holy Spirit to us. Our bodies are the Tempel for the Holy Spirit.
John 14: «15 If you love Me, keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever – 17 The spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him, but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. – 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.»
Acts 11:21 «And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.»
