In a previous post I shared how my grandson at 2 1/2 years old had a wonderful experience of overcoming dark forces during a dream encounter. In that experience he was able to kill snakes that had been brought by monsters to torment him. I also shared how he had said that he had seen and talked to his great-grandmother who had passed away 6 months before his birth.
Just recently he and I were riding in my car and I asked him, “Have you been to see Jesus yet?” He reponded very matter of factly, “Yeah”. “You did?” I responded, a little surprised I must admit. “What did he do when you saw him?” I asked. He responded, “Just talked to me.” “Really?” I said, “What did he say?” Just as matter of factly as before, he responded, “No snakes at my house!”
This may not seem like a big deal, but it is quite interesting considering that the snake event happened last summer when he was only 2 1/2. Now he is just over 3 and we haven’t really discussed the snake event since it happened. Because his night terrors ended there was no reason to bring it up again. For him to give that particular response leads me to conclude that the conversation really took place.
So why is it that children seem so easily able to enter the spirit realm and enjoy the supernatural? Is that what Jesus was referring to when he said that if we wanted to enter his kingdom we must become like little children? Can the supernatural really become a natural part of our experience?
I think so.
