Whirlwind

As an educator, one of my favorite movies to show my students was the Prince of Egypt. I absolutely adore this movie, and the soundtrack just as much because you can't help but sing along. You can literally feel God through their voices. Its a reverb. For the purpose of this story, I'll highlight one aspect that involves my personal experience with The Holy Spirit. Its stated that "the Lord is always with you", but how many of us truly understand what it means? You might believe the word when it says that it lives within you, or that we are led by it. To be honest, I know that it is both- and all around us. The best way to explain what the Holy Spirit was to my students was the part of the movie when the Holy Spirit actually descends to the earth to kill the male first born sons. You might also ask, how would I know? Well, let's just say I had an experience that allowed me to witness the power God and his promises kept. During this time I was living in a home I had purchased and working just like everyday Americans do. What made me different was the disdain people had for me for simply being a good person and a child of God. I learned that these people want to corrupt as many people as possible, especially children. I have a light that attracts the worst creatures. I think its unique to the city I live in though. There are some pretty wicked things that go on here. Now, I can't say for sure if anything was after me. If so, it had to be on the highest level of wicked for the Holy Spirit to reveal itself to me. Or, was something else going on? I had finished my day, got home, did all the routine things, and went to bed. Not too long into my sleep, was I awakened. But, I couldn't move. I was laying on my back and opened my eyes only for a moment to see a whirl of wind literally in my bedroom, and it was moving really fast. It looked exactly like the one in the movie. And I still did not have control over my body. That moment allowed me to see God in action, but then I was put back to sleep. My head was pushed down with the most care and I went back to sleep. I didn't wake up until morning. Needless to say, I felt different after this experience. It was the best sleep ever knowing that if no human had my back, God did!
