Question:

I have been experiencing visions when I sometimes close my eyes or talk to Jesus Christ. The visions usually consist of nature/rainbows/crosses for instance I would see a door in a dark room and than I walk to the door and open it and suddenly its a forest full of life with waterfalls, trees, plants and animal. I have a lot of these visions and sometimes they get quite and sometimes they come more than expected. Do you think this is a way of Jesus Christ speaking to me?

Answer:

I am very skeptical about this kind of thing, but I have to admit that I can’t see anything wrong. There are only two possibilities; God or the devil, and I am having difficulty in seeing why the devil would give you visions of God’s creation. I wish my dreams were like that, I usually wake up in a cold sweat! I have no certainty about something that I have never come across, but you are talking to Jesus, and it seems like He is talking back to you through God’s nature! Of course, I am only going on the tiny bit of information you are giving me, but I just can’t see how the devil would feature in this scenario. No, I think that you have been blessed and received a gift that many of us would like to have!

But I would like to give a warning. If this is an elaborate scheme of the devil, he will subtly try to pull you away from Jesus. Remember, the devil is invisible, very clever, stronger than us, and finally is able to plant thoughts and images in our minds, so just be on your guard if things should change. In the meantime, keep up your relationship with Christ, and ask Him to protect you from any of the devil’s deceptions, because if he could deceive perfect people like Adam and Eve, we will certainly be deceived without God’s help.

Matthew 24     23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect25 See, I have told you beforehand.

2 Corinthians 11:14   And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

James 4:7   Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Stick close to Jesus Christ, your Saviour, and you cannot go wrong. God bless!

Matthew 24:23-25

23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.
