Mark's Encounters
Mark has been e-mailing me for some time now, and he has so many wonderful stories- that he got his own section!
When I was a young boy, between the ages of 11 or 12, I had my first encounter with the Lord. I remember it was a Saturday night, and I went to bed like any other night. During the night I believe I died at some point because this is what I experienced. All at once I could see myself (my body) standing in a darkened area. I was observing this with my own vision. I could see that it was definitely me standing at a forward and slightly lower position of my vision. In front of my vision and the front of my body was an elevated runway of clouds that went only a few feet to the left of my body, but the clouds went for a straight line several yards to the right of both my body and vision.The clouds were white and were rolling continuously like churning water. I look to my right and could see the figure of a man coming toward me moving along the runway of clouds. As he continued to walk toward me my angle of vision changed. I instantly was observing from in front of and elevated above the man and could see the floor of the runway of clouds. It was covered with every type of flower, which were cut and lay in the pathway of the man who was coming near to my position. All the flowers were, though cut from their stems and not inany soil still completely alive and in full bloom. As the man walked I could see the flowers ruffle from the movement of his feet passing through them. As he walked I could catch a glimpse of his feet now and again passing through the flowers. Even though he walked on and through the flowers he didn't crush or even wrinkle them. They remained perfect. I found my vision once again moved behind the position of mybody and observed my body. As the man came in line with my body he turned to his left to face my position, as he was turning my vision was immediately moved from the rear position of my body into it and my vision became the vision of the body. I looked up toward the man who was above me several feet and was directly in front of me. He was dressed in a white garment, a type of robe. The sleeves of the robe were wide and hung down to his side. Were his hands would be there was no hand with fingers. But rather a mass of very bright pulsating energy which throbbed and pulsated continuously. I tried to look at his face but could not for the intense brightness of it so I centered my vision onto his chest. I felt very comfortable at this time and all throughthis experience. I remember that I just watched him for a few minutes.He then began to shake his head "NO". I realized I just said I could not look upon his face but at this time I could see his head and he was shaking it "NO". At this time I could hear, not audibly, but in my mind"No, not yet". I then began to cry out in extreme emotion "Please let me stay." I wanted to stay with all my ability but he kept shaking his head slowly "NO". I then found myself back in my bed awake it was the middle of the night. I was at peace and rolled over and went directly to sleep.
HOPE YOU ARE WELL, THE FOLLOWING IS AN ACCOUNT I HAD JUST SEVERAL WEEKS AGO I HOPE YOU WILL BE BLESSED BY IT.ONE NIGHT, ABOUT 4 OR 5 WEEKS AGO, I WENT TO SLEEP IN MY BED LIKE ANY OTHER NIGHT. DURING THE NIGHT I HAD A DERAM. THE DREAM WAS THE FOLLOWING: I FOUND MYSELF AWAKE AND STANDING IN AN AREA LIKE A FLEE MARKET SETTING. I WAS WATCHING A MAN AND A WOMAN SETTING UP THEIR BOOTH, WHICH WAS IN FRONT OF ME ABOUT 15 FT. FROM ME. THE MAN WAS DRESSED IN BLACK. HE WAS WEARING A THREE-PIECE SUITE. HE WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF THE BOOTH, A COUPLE OF EIGHT FT. TABLES WHICH THE WOMAN WAS ATTACHING A CLOTH BORDER TO. THE BORDER HUNG DOWN FROM THE TABLE IN THE FRONT OF IT AND ON BOTH ENDS. I COULD TELL THAT THE TWO HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH SOMETHING THAT APPEARED INTERESTING TO ME, POSSIBLY WITCHCRAFT OF SOME SORT. LET ME PAUSE FROM THE DREAM FOR A MINUTE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I WAS GOING THRU A TIME OF VERY STRONG TEMPTATION FROM THE DEVIL (LUCIFER) CONCERING WITHCHCRAFT AND THE PRACTICES OF THE OUIJA BOARD. BACK TO THE DERAM, I APPROACHED THE TWO AT THE TABLE AND ASKED WITH INTREST, WHAT IS THIS? THE MAN LOOKED AT ME AND POLITELY EXCUSED HIMSELF AND THEN WALKED AWAY FROM ME. THE WOMAN, A HEVEYSET LADY, WARMLY GREETED ME & ASKED ME IF I KNEW ABOUT WICCA. I TOLD HER "NOT MUCH". SHE THEN STOPPED WORKING ON THE BOOTH AND I COULD SEE BOXS OF BOOKS AND THINGS STILL PACKED AWAY BEHIND THE TABLE ON THE FLOOR. SHE BEGAN TO SPEAK VERY KINDLY TO ME ABOUT FAIRIES AND SOMETHING ELSE, I DON'T REMEMBER BECAUSE JUST THEN I CAUGHT THE SIGHT OF ANOTHER BOOTH OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE TO THE LEFT OF ME. I TURNED QUICKLY AND SAW ANOTHER TABLE THERE. THERE WAS A DEAD MAN LYING ON THE TABLE.MY ATTENTION RIGHT AWAY TURNED TO THIS MAN ON THE TABLE AND IT WAS LIKE THE WOMAN AND THE AREA WHERE SHE WAS , WAS NO LONGERTHERE..............
I APPROACHED THE DEAD MAN LYING ON THE TABLE. THA MAN WAS MOSTLY NAKED WITH JUST A SHEET WRAPPED AROUND HIS WAIST AREA. IN SOME WAY THIS MAN ON THE TABLE APPEARED TO BE ME IN AN ADVANCED STAGE OF AGE. I THEN SAW SOMETHING QUITE FRIGHTENING TO ME. THERE APPEARED UPON HTE MANS CHEST A SMALL CREATURE, A TYPE OF GREMLIN, FOR LACK OF BETTER WORDS, HE WAS VEYANGRY AND EXCITED. HE WAS JUMPING UP AND DOWN ON THE CHEST OF THE DEADMAN BEATING ON HIM WITH HIS FIST AND YELLING "LET ME IN, LET ME IN!" THIS SCARED ME IN THE DREAM. I THEN WOKE UP IN MY BED. I IMMEDIATELY PRAYED TO JESUS TO DELIVER ME AND PROTECT ME FROM THIS EVIL SPIRIT THAT WAS ATTACKING ME. I WAS QUITE SHAKEN BY THE DREAM. I WOKE MY WIFE AND ASKED HER TO PRAY FOR ME. I CONTINUED TO PRAY FOR PROTECTION AND DELIVERANCE FROM THIS EVIL SPIRIT. THEN I FELT MY HEAD BE FORCED TO THE LEFT SIDE OF MY BODY SO MY VISION WAS LOOKING AT THE OUTSIDE WALL OFOUR BEDROOM. IT IS ON THE SECOND FLOOR OF THE HOUSE ABOUT 15 FT. ABOVE THE GROUND LEVEL. I THEN SAW THREE ANGLES OF PURE FIRE COME INTO THE BEDROOM FROM OUTSIDE THE HOUSE. THEY CAME RIGHT THRU THE WALL. I HAD SEEN ONE ANGLE OF FIRE EXACTLY LIKE THESE BEFORE IN THREE OTHER VISIONS I HAVE HAD PREVIOUSLY WHICH I WOULD LOVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT LATER, SO I WAS NOT AFRAID. BUT UNLIKE ANY OHTER VISION OR DREAM I HAVE HAD IN THE PAST.
MY WIFE WAS THER AWAKE WITH ME. I TOLD HER "THE ANGLES ARE HERE." THE THREE ANGLES HAD THE SHAPE AND SIZE OF MEN, BUT WERE COMPLEATLY FIRE. I COULD SEE THE INDENTATIONS OF THEIR FACES IN THEIR HEADS. I COULD ONLY FOLLOW THEM, WITH MY VISION, TO THE CENTER OF THE FOOT OF THE BED. I COULD NOT TURN MY HEAD ANY FUTHER TO THE RIGHT. THE ANGEL CLOSEST TOTHE BED TURNED AND FACED ME. I COULD TELL, EVEN THOUGH I COULD NOT LOOK ANY FUTHER TO THE RIGHT, THE OTHER TWO ANGLES CONTINUED TO THE RIGHT OF MY POSITION. WHEN THE ANGEL TURNED AND FACED ME, HE THEN CAME THRU THE BED AND SPREAD HIMSELF INTO A WALL OF FIRE ALL OVER ME. I WAS ENGULFED IN FIRE. I WAS NOT BURNED NOR ANY HAIR ON MY BODY SINGED THE SLIGHTEST. I THEN BEGAN TO TALK OUT LOUD. NOT IN ENGLISH BUT ANOTHER LANGUAGE UNKNOWN TO ME. I COULD HEAR IT BUT I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND IT.I THEN TURNED TO MY LEFT AND STRETCHED OUT MY HANDS AND ARMS DESPERATELY REACHING FOR SOMETHING. I CONTINUED TO SPEAK, ALMOST A CRY, IN THE LANUAGE , THAT I DID NOT KNOW , FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES. I COULD STILL THINK WHILE I WAS SPEAKING AND I REMEMBER THINKING WHAT IS THIS? I SENCED IT WAS MY SOUL TALKING TO EITHER THE ANGEL OR JESUS HIMSELF, ALTHOUGH I DID NOT SEE JESUS. WHEN THIS TALKING STOPPED I FELT A VIOLENT TREMOR GO THROUGH MY BODY AND MY BREATH TAKEN AWAY. I FELT THREE OF FOUR OF THESE TREMORS. I TRUELY BELIEVE NOW LOOKING BACK THAT THE TREMORS I FELT WERE THE RESULTS OF MY SPIRIT RE-ENTERING MY BODY.AT THE END OF THE ENCOUNTER I FELT PEACFUL AND VERY TIRED. I TURNED OVER AND WENT TO SLEEP WITH NO THOUGHTS OF WITCHCRAFT OF OUIJA BAORDPRATICE DRAWING ME TO THEM OR HE PRATICE OF THEM AGAIN.
