I also read the scriptures about a "trance". I had never thought how you could go into trance and a vision could take place. According to what I read, it appears that a trance happens while you are awake. Somehow you are no longer aware of what is going on in your surroundings when you see the vision.
This is true, in fact you got me looking into this further. The glory of God becomes so awesomely present during a trance. I can usually tell when one will happen now. Before I would feel all this and not know what is going on. And so fearfully (not in a bad sense) awesomely, powerful. I would question the Lord "what is that?" "what is that?" The other day when I questioned Him, He said that is My Glory!
Feels like a heavy thick blanket put over me, and He totally takes over, I could feel wind in my home swaying all around me, and waves (living water) rolling through me, and light all around shining brighter and brighter. Then boom a vision comes, and sometimes a vision doesn't come. But I just love basking in His wonderful presence like this. I usually am laying on the couch or bed when one happens. And probably should be. I never want it to stop, and will often go back to the couch for more.
Sometimes I can't even put into words what is taking place......But I do know the following scriptures are what is taking place.
Ephesian 1:17-20
Heavenly Father of glory, I ask you to give me/us the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You, that the eyes of our understanding would be enlightened; that we may know what is the hope of Your calling, and what are the riches of the glory of Your inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of Your power toward us who believe, according to the working of Your mighty power which You worked in Christ when You raised Him from the dead and seated Him at Your right hand. Thankyou Father, in Jesus name. amen.
A trance leads into a vision. It takes place in a different manner from how a vision or even a vision of the night happens. There are so many things to learn about what happens in the spirit, it is never ending. It has prompted me to go back and look at the visions that happened in such manner. I have discovered that I have experienced those types of visions many times. I didn't know that they had occurred during a trance.
Exactly.... thats what I realized too!!!!
Thankyou, and let me know anything else you learn.... there is nothing more exciting to learn about!!!
Thankyou Father.
Living in His glory,
Lady
