Visions

[AllForHisGlory]

So recently, I have been having a lot of visions during worship and such. Last sunday, our youth group had an *upper room* experience where were at first just listening to Jesus Culture and praying then all of a sudden we just openly declared the Holy Spirit to visit the room. Immediately one leader started laughing in the Spirit, while others were crying also. I have never prayed in tongues so intense before, It was amazing.

So while I was praying in tongues among all the happenings in the room at the time, I asked God to show me something. So God showed me this gigantic fire, with huge flames, and Jesus was just saying "Run into the fire!" As many other believers saw the flame, they ran, afraid of the flame, but I ran straight into it. Then Jesus said to me "You will now be consumed and burn with the Holy Spirit inside of you!". Immediately after that, our youth group leader declared (not knowing my vision) that the fire of the Spirit burn inside of us, to cleanse us, to be the flame inside us, the fire.

So anyway, lately I have had these thoughts and such in my mind, I have a desire to show my brothers in Christ (most of them which are baptist at my school) the consuming fire and power of the Holy Spirit. They seem SO afraid of Him, so afraid of the gifts. I know the Holy Spirit works in His time, not mine, but its so difficult. During the school week, once a week I do praise worship for the school. Sometimes during worship, I feel so led to do/say certain things by the Holy Spirit, but I get this fear that the school administrators will get angry. I so desperately want to see the people in that school get that consuming fire inside of them, for them to run into the flame...but...its so hard. :/

Good for you to be concerned about others' spiritual lives.

Perhaps you could try writing what you believe you're being told and give it to someone on the leadership team. This way you are released. They can review it and if they read it to the congregation, it doesn't matter who says it. Also, if they read it to the congregation, they might not say anything about you being connected to the note.

You stated the youth leader ended up saying the same thing as you were given something, sometimes that does happen.

So you have verification that what you were given was from God. As you get deeper in the Lord, you will be given messages to give. You will not be forced, of course, but you may be one who prophesies on a regular basis. Don't wander away from God. It is easier to do than you might imagine.

Well its also complicated in the fact that the church I go to is NOT connected or affiliated with the school I go to at all, its charismatic, the school is baptist. Its already tough trying to coordinate praise and worship with a baptist worship leader for school, but thats a different story, thank goodness for brotherly christian love
