So this is late, and I apologize, but I wasn’t sure how to share this amazing night. Still not sure I can put into words the experiences we had.
Two weeks ago, Nicole and I got to go to Gresham for a concert. It’s a worship group out of Tennessee called All Sons and Daughters. They were doing a night of worship and conversation.
There were hundreds of people inside the sanctuary with us, standing room only , all eyes on the stage as they played.
The spirit was absolutely overwhelming in there. They really knew how to bring the presence of the Lord to everyone.
Not only was there worship songs , but like I said, there was conversation too. A couple times through the concert, the pastor from their home church (who was traveling with them) would give a word and share stories from his life.
One of the times he opened up the front of the stage for people to come and take communion, dance, and pray. Nicole turned to me and said she was going no matter what. But there was no one stepping forward, and I was hesitant. Finally she said I’m going with or without you.
We were the first ones to step forward, before hundreds of people, and pray together and take communion. I can without a doubt say that God blessed us for being faithful.(more on this in a bit) The overwhelming peace that I felt for being faithful can’t even be described.
After communion, we went over to one of the prayer books and both did a piece of prophetic art inside. We don’t have pictures of them, but that’s ok because God has a plan for them.
After all of this, we went into the back of the sanctuary so that Nicole could dance. For those that don’t know, Nicole loves to worship by dancing. She even has her own tabret. To me it’s absolutely beautiful and I love the spirit she brings when she dances.
While she was dancing, I had an overwhelming vision, which upon looking back, I feel was given to me because we were faithful. I saw myself and Nicole at another worship night, and Nicole was dancing once again. But on my shoulders, watching the group playing, and dancing like Nicole, was our daughter. She was looking over at Nicole from time to time, and moving her arms like Nicole did.
I will say here that Nicole is not pregnant, in case you were wondering. But we are talking about starting a family in the near future.
But to both see and feel, clear as day, your child, and to know that she loves you, and wants to be like you, without reservation, is something else. It makes me excited for the future when that vision can become a reality.
I was completely wrecked by the vision though, and broke down in tears of joy. Even now, remembering it, I’m tearing up. I can’t even begin to imagine the insurmountable love a parent has for their child. But I’m starting to get an idea of it.
It’s hard to say what else happened that night because I was full of joy and prayer and the spirit, and just worshipped and praised God for the love he has given us.
I do know that after the concert, the group asked those who wanted to stay, to come and talk with them and to let them get to know about you. It was a fun experience and you could sense the anointing that God put on their lives.
