In a dream on November 30, 2014, I saw end time disciples growing in faith as we encouraged each other and helped train each other to operate in the powers of the age to come. We were being trained to do greater works than Jesus did, just as He said we would. (John 14:12) For training purposes, we were separated into three groups based on our level of spiritual development. In the first group, everyone was sitting. In the second group, everyone was walking, but in the third group, everyone was flying.
The first group had far more people than either of the other two groups. They were all sitting on the side of a grassy hill, relaxing and looking around, like they were waiting for something to happen, so they remained idle. They were all Christians, so they were interested in the things of God, but they weren’t actively seeking to grow or advance because they were content where they were and unwilling to risk losing their most valuable possessions, which were sitting on the ground next to them, just as idle as they were, not being used for anything.
The second group was also a large number of people, but not as large as the first group. They were all walking or at least slowly shuffling along, on their way to a big tall house. Many of them had already entered and were making their way through the many levels of the house. Each level contained different projects and stations where they had to complete tasks before they could move up to the next level. A large crowd of them shuffled through, attempting to complete these various tasks, but their progress was slow because the tasks could only be completed by operating in the powers of the age to come. So, the faster they learned how to do that, the faster they could advance. Everyone was advancing at their own pace, but most were moving slowly because they relied too much on their own understanding, so they weren’t open to receive from the Holy Spirit or follow His leading.
Inside the house, when the walkers saw someone completing their task, they would all ooh and ahh in amazement. So, they were encouraging and motivating each other and causing their faith to grow. Some of them were so encouraged by what they saw others doing, they followed their example and began to step out and operate in it themselves.
The third group was very small, especially in the beginning. Everyone in this group could fly, which included me. I flew over a crowd of walkers as they were walking towards the house and I saw their faces as they looked up at me. Their eyes and their whole face lit up as they gasped with amazement. They could hardly believe what they were seeing, but it caused their faith to soar and some of them believed they could do it too.
I saw some of the flyers flying through all the levels of the house right over the heads of the walkers, easily completing all the tasks required by their stations, flying very fast past each of them, like they only had to zoom by and it was all done without even slowing down. They flew through all the levels within a few seconds and right out of a window at the top level. It was very easy for them because they had learned to be led by the Spirit. The walkers were encouraged when they saw the flyers completing these tasks so easily and it stirred up greater hunger in them to learn more, which caused them to advance faster through the levels.
As I flew over a group of walkers, I saw an old friend of mine who is now the pastor of a church. He was still walking and had not yet learned to fly so I encouraged him to step out and start flying. He was a little slow getting started, but he caught on and started flying very low to the ground. Other flyers were doing the same thing, encouraging the others until eventually there were lots of people flying. All it required was to believe and step out in faith. Later, I saw the whole sky filled with flyers.
I flew over to the first group of people sitting idle on the hill and sat down next to one couple and encouraged them to at least use their money to help others advance God’s kingdom. I only encouraged them and did not try to force them and they agreed. Other flyers were doing the same thing, so the flyers were plundering the wealth of the sitters, not for selfish gain, but for the Kingdom’s purposes.
At every level, we were all learning more and more about how to operate in the powers of the age to come, but the training was also personalized to prepare us and equip us for our own unique assignments. At every level, our biggest challenge was learning to trust more what we heard in our heart than what we saw and heard with our physical eyes and ears, so we had to learn to rely totally on the voice of the Lord leading us in our heart while tuning out any voices speaking words that contradicted His words.
As I continued my personal training, the exercises became progressively more challenging. First, I learned to hear His voice and obey, but then I encountered a challenge in doing it with the right timing, which totally threw me for a loop at first. I made lots of mistakes before I started learning to wait for the Lord’s timing. In some cases, I got frustrated and even angry.
Whenever I successfully completed an exercise, the training advanced to a higher level requiring greater discernment to distinguish more subtle differences between what the Lord was saying and what I was hearing from others. At first, it sounded like the Lord was saying the same thing others were saying, but on closer examination I saw very slight but important differences.
The hardest task I was given was when the word of the Lord seemed to contradict other words from the Lord, but it only seemed that way since He never contradicts Himself. It reminded me of how God promised Abraham He was going to give him descendants through Isaac, as numerous as the stars, but then He told Abraham to offer Isaac as a human sacrifice. Those two words sound contradictory, but Abraham passed the test because he understood God would never break His promise even if He had to raise Isaac from the dead. (Genesis 22:2) Passing this test required a higher level of trusting and obeying because it seemed to make no sense at all, so in all these exercises, we were learning not to rely on our own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5)
Then the scene changed and I was with a small group of disciples riding in a vehicle that was transporting us from earth to heaven. It resembled a small subway train on the inside, but I never saw it from the outside. Some of the people riding with me came from earth while others had already died and were already residents of heaven. In the same way that God was permitting us to visit heaven, He was permitting them to interact with us as we were all working together to complete our own unique assignments because we were all part of the same mission. Many of us riding this vehicle were interacting with these residents of heaven.
My dad was riding with me on this vehicle. He died in 2009 when he was 76 years old, but in this dream, he looked like he was about 25 years old. I was so excited to share with him the great things God was doing in my life that I forgot to ask him about all he had seen since he had arrived in heaven. Surely he had seen many great things and wanted to share them. The dream ended before we arrived in heaven, but I understood all this going back and forth between heaven and earth was part of our training.
The first group was seated with their possessions beside them, representing all their God-given talents and the financial resources He had supplied them, which were just as idle as they were. Since they were ignoring His commands to draw near to Him, to ask of Him, to seek Him, to hunger and thirst for more of His Kingdom and His righteousness, they weren’t receiving the wisdom and understanding they so desperately needed, so they remained in darkness, confusion and deception, which is why they were complacent and content to wait for God to do something, not realizing He had already done everything and given them everything they needed, including all the truth and power needed to break out of their idle condition. (Matthew 7:7-8, James 4:8) So, they were squandering their life, failing to fulfill His plans and purposes, wasting their time going nowhere and doing nothing of any eternal value. (Matthew 5:6, 6:33)
The walkers consisted of all those who were hungry for more, not content to remain sitting, so they were moving forward in their relationship with God, seeking Him and growing in wisdom. Some were walking faster than others, but all of them were being delayed from flying by their reliance on their own understanding, which made them unwilling to step out in faith, trusting God with childlike faith. The different stations and levels of the house provided them with opportunities to refine their skills and grow in faith, so they were continuing to move forward.
There was nothing special about the flyers. We had only learned to fly because were hungrier for more of God than the sitters and walkers, not content with what we had, so we sought Him more earnestly and learned to hear His voice more clearly than those who were not seeking Him as much. We were not holding tightly to what we had, like the sitters were doing, because we did not regard our lives as anything worth holding onto, like we had already lost everything and had nothing left to lose, which made us more willing to step out in faith, doing what He told us to do, which was the key to flying. Our reliance on the unseen realm of God enabled us to see beyond the natural realm, so we were no longer confined by it, but we still had lots to learn.
The rapid growth in the number of flyers showed the acceleration in spiritual growth coming in our generation. Just as the world is rapidly descending into darkness, the righteous are entering a time of accelerated growth in our faith with large numbers of people learning to soar in the heavenly realm as we come together in unity, helping each other. I did not see any strife, competition, envy, jealousy or division. We were all working together, helping each other to continue advancing in faith, so that by itself was a big step in the right direction.
There were different levels of flyers just as there were different levels of walkers, as shown by my old friend who stepped out and started flying. At first, he stayed close to the ground until he gained more confidence. Even as the flyers were still learning, our faith encouraged both the sitters and walkers to step out in faith, but it was much easier to help the walkers than the sitters because they were already hungry for more. Just a quick fly over was all it took to greatly encourage the walkers, but the sitters required more effort, taking time to sit down with them and talk with them individually to persuade them to at least use their resources for God, but with so many of them, there weren’t enough flyers to reach all of them, so most of them were left on their own where they were content to remain.
Learning to distinguish very subtle differences in what the Lord was saying reminded me of something I said many years ago at a home fellowship group. The leader asked each of us to share the desires of our heart, specifically what we wanted God to do in our life. When it was my turn, I said I wanted to be so close to Him that He wouldn’t even have to tell me what He wanted me to do because if He just looked at me a certain way, I would already know what He meant. I didn’t even know what I was asking, but since He has promised if we delight ourselves in Him, He will give us the desires of our heart, I believe He started training me to receive the discernment I desired, which only comes by much practice and often includes making mistakes along the way. (Hebrews 5:14) I’ve made lots of them so even after many years I still have a long way to go to get to the level I described, but thank God He continues to bear with us when we don’t catch on right away. He must be grading on the curve because otherwise I would have flunked out a long time ago. That’s what He did with Gideon when he was struggling to believe any of God’s promises. Yet, the angel of the Lord appeared to him saying, “The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!” (Judges 6:12-13) Might man of valor? Really? Then the Lord told him, “Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?” (Judges 6:14) This might of yours? What might? Gideon was the least of the least, the most unlikely candidate, but he passed the test and won a great victory because he was willing to follow God’s instructions by faith even when it contradicted his own understanding. (Judges 7:1-8:28)
The vehicles transporting us back and forth from earth to heaven were just another level of training, learning from those who were already residents of heaven. Just as the number of flyers continued increasing until we were filling the sky, so did the number of those riding in the vehicles. I believe this shows more heavenly visits are coming in the days ahead as more and more people will be caught up to receive more advanced training, which they can share with others to encourage them. (Revelation 12:5)
Seeing my dad and the other residents of heaven showed their involvement in what’s happening here on earth, which is something we don’t hear much about, but this dream shows it will become increasingly revealed to us in the days ahead. This kind of interaction is scriptural as shown by Moses and Elijah visiting with Jesus at His transfiguration. Peter, James, and John were also there with Him and they also saw Moses and Elijah. (Matthew 17:1-8) Other examples include the great cloud of heavenly witnesses, cheering us on and the great army riding on white horses and wearing fine linen following the Lord Jesus during heaven’s coming invasion of earth. (Hebrews 12:1, Revelation 19:14) Even after we depart from this life, God still has assignments for His over-comers to complete on earth, as shown by the promise Jesus made, saying, “And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations. He shall rule them with a rod of iron.” (Revelation 2:26-27 NKJV) These assignments will continue long after He returns as we will rule with Him on earth for one thousand years. (Revelation 20:4-6)
Will we literally fly? Well, why not? The Prophet Isaiah asked, “Who are these who fly like a cloud and like the doves to their lattices?” (Isaiah 60:8) Some have claimed he was referring to angels, but if so, it would not fit the context of the chapter, which is all about end time disciples. Someone even claimed he was referring to sailboats, but sailboats don’t fly like clouds or doves. Those are both things we see in the sky. So, I believe Isaiah saw end time disciples flying, either in the spirit or perhaps even physically, which is mind-blowing, but maybe we need to have our minds blown since my dream showed we were relying too much on our own understanding.
Jesus said, “All things are possible to those who believe.” (Mark 9:23) I looked up the meaning of the Greek word, “pas”, and sure enough, it means all, so His promise is only limited by our inability to believe what He puts in our heart more than our own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Recently I was thinking about how high level Satanists transport in and out of locked rooms and I was like, why doesn’t God give us that? Then we wouldn’t have to worry about visas. Then with the gift of languages, if space and language weren’t barriers then think how quickly the gospel could spread. We’d just go and speak wherever we where sent without needing visas or language training. I’ve definitely been called as an evangelist and I just started stepping out into the call through handing out tracts I wrote up and starting conversations about Jesus through the tracts and praying with people on the street. I know this is my calling even though I’ve never been mentored into it so I’m trying to follow the guidance the Spirit gives. I feel like it’s guerilla warfare, instead of a big planned crusade it’s little assignments each person is given that are coordinated by the Spirit instead of by us that knock the enemy for a loop because it’s not predictable. The Spirit moves like the wind, they can’t tell what it’s going to ask from us next.
I also confronted my first demon possession and I was able to get it’s name and break it’s curses and the woman felt waves of black coming up out of her and a lightness and freedom and I felt like there was a fire coming down on me but I couldn’t get it to come out. Does anyone have experience with that? I’ve spent over a half hour two evenings now and I’ve fasted over it but it’s super slippery and acts like I can’t see it. I saw it watching me through her the first time I met her and when I was trying to cast it out I saw it thinking “I’m not here, I’m not here, act natural.” and it was trying to hide. I’m thinking I may need to get a group of Christians together to pray over her and God would give more anointing to two or three of us together than just myself.

I too have had dreams of flying even as a child flying above my bed around my room and over the schoolyard. Other early ones as an adult were a little precarious learning types. Next full on and for purpose. Shalom!
I’ve had many dreams as well as visions of myself flying or levitating. Some symbolic and some of what I believe to be visions of the future. I know people can levitate but I’ve yet to hear of anyone who has been able to perform controlled flight. Has anyone else? St. Joseph of Cupertino is a fascinating saint to study on this topic! (Known as the saint who could fly) …. I was praying on a plane flight home a few months ago and Jesus showed me this pure white airplane hanger in the spirit to practice flying with him. He’s been giving me lessons and I truly believe I will be able to fly in the physical world one day. Along the similar line when you listen to this song (I believe I can fly) with this mindset it comes off to me as a fairly prophetic song.

Any practical info shared on the topic of learning to fly would be greatly appreciated.

Just posted today
At the 50:24 minute mark in this video about New Agers that came to know Jesus, there is a story about a group that talked to “Jesus” and angels. These people wrote down their channeled conversations and the “assignments” that they were given. The hair stood up on the back of my neck as I heard the wording used. I have heard lots of this type of information here and on other Christian sites. Discernment is SO important right now!

Thanks.Very important warning message about present day spiritual manifestations and discerning of spirits.
I don’t know how I feel about this. I believe the dream of flying was very real, and I’m pretty sure I’m one of those walkers walking towards the house, maybe opening the door. This has been a transformative year for me.
But after reading a lot about the flying accounts in the comments section, I just don’t know. I’m taking it to the Lord for an answer.
There is one thing I can know, and that is that the Word of God is my foundation. When it comes to flying, how can I know that it is not astral projection, or levitating powers that are not from God? I don’t doubt God can make man fly, after all, angels fly. It’s just much harder to distinguish where this is coming from. That’s why I am seeking God about it. But in the mean time I don’t have an answer.
Seanc I understand your concerns. I actually think part of the answer is where one is taken to when experiencing the flying. Personally, my experiences have always been if flying in the spirit…in other words my spirit is called up by God to a scene in heaven or in the sky and in the vision I can feel myself flying up but I cannot see my body (because the essence of who we are is spirit just as God is spirit). May God grant you the answers you are seeking on this matter.
James,
Awesome dream. I love reading your dreams , they are so animated and amazing. I want to train for flight school.
I have been praying for dreams and they are starting to happen. The other night my dog Jake , a golden retriever that lived to be 17 years old, the best dog we have ever had who passed away 3 years ago spoke to me in my dream.
He had made a big mess on the carpet and I was mad at him. As I was cleaning him
outside my anger turned to compassion because he was old and needed more care than a younger dog. I started talking to him with love and a gentle tone and he turned his head and spoke to me in words. “I’m sorry I let you down”
Oh if he only knew the joy and love he brought to our family for all those years.
My parents have had lots of golden retrievers, but none of them lived anywhere near 17 years, so that is amazing. I believe God will have Jake waiting for you in heaven whenever you get there.
James,I loved hearing you speak and learning who you are as a person versus just writing. You seem so humble and kind…and so intelligent.
It really was a joy to hear your heart and Rachael as well on the other podcast. It’s exciting to branch out like this.
I know you hear it all the time but thank you for what you do and what you have allowed the body of believers to participate in and to converse with one another.
My bad!!! I was reading a comment and thought this was the podcast that I never commented on!! Haha ( : Well, James, I also had dreams of flying and really enjoyed this post from you as well…. just apply my previous comment to your podcasts! Love it all…
There are animals in Heaven and some say we should ask God to take care of our animals until we get there. I had a great golden retriever that lived 17 years. I’m a great Pyrennes man now, have my second pair. Man’s best friend, sorry ladies.
Love that Bob! My hubby and I have two Great Pyrenees and we love, love ,love them! They are so intelligent and sweet….best dogs ever! We also have an older cocker spaniel. I pray over them every day that God will always take care of them and that they will live long,happy lives. I say to God, even the dogs get the crumbs from the masters table! It’s nice to hear from a fellow animal lover! They are our best friends aren’t they ( :
Katie, I plead the blood of Jesus over my dogs and because we are no longer under the curse of the law our animals are blessed. Affectionate? If you pet them they won’t let you stop. Smart or independent? I have found them not responsive to learning commands. Is that because they are use to being independent in the fields guarding live stock or low IQ? An enigma to me.
I’ve heard from a trainer that they are just stubborn and found that ours definitely were but our youngest one is just extremely smart, of course she is mixed with German Shepherd so that’s probably it.
Oh wow, brought tears to my eyes. God bless Jake…
Throughout my whole life, I have many re-occurring dreams of me flying with ease! I know in my heart that we will be doing this some day for his kingdom. Even throughout our solar system and beyond…. don’t limit God! I’ve also had many dreams of turning invisible on command, running super fast with ease, etc. I’m game for whatever He wants….. I want to be child-like.
This is SOOOO exciting James! I fully believe I will be able to fly. As I’ve previously shared, one of my earliest memories is of flying around my grand-parents living room as a little girl! Bring it Lord! Train me up and send me out!
Man, WOW! This is really enlightening and breathtaking, Mr. Bailey. I am excited by what I just heard in your dream. I definitely believe we will be flying and doing other extraordinary things beyond our rational. Glory be to God! I know for sure I want to be a definite participant in the Kingdom of God and in this endtime harvest of souls. God Bless You!
Wow, I had a dream about this a few nights ago. It started by telling myself “it’s about Grace”, then a port hole appeared, everything was black, but I could see color in this hole, like looking trough a tube and I went through it and wanted to go into space but something stopped me from going to far. I went to places on earth and told people about God. Parts of the dream were so vivid and parts were foggy in my memory. I did not remember the dream right away then A about 10 waking up, it flooded to my recollection. The Grace part I believe was an answer to my prayer the night that same night because I was feeling so unworthy and not living up to what I should have. I know I never will, it is about the Grace. I loved that dream. I have been wanting to experience everything God intends for us and I believe that God has more for us in some really extraordinary ways. I used to wonder years ago why churches did not experience the supernatural powers of God. It turned me away from churches, I was also raised Catholic, it did not help. This really blows me away.
JAMES —-Kathy C——please ! ?
If your dream is a parable then:
The people sitting are Christians that do not follow God’s laws.
The people walking are those who live their life according to God commandments and trust Him.
The people flying are those who experience Beatitude through constant prayers (for one or more hours depend on the person).
Notice James in your dream there are three groups. The bible says some bear fruit some 30-60 and 100 fold. Also there are three groups in the “wedding party”- The bride- the attendants and the guests. Within the Bride group is the “Man child” ie Rev 12 and elsewhere and this Man child, who corporately has transformed much of their image into Christ- will lead and show others how to “partake of the heavenly nature”. We are all living beneath God’s plans for us and below the authority granted to us in the Word. Thanks
Lots of three’s going on here at Z3.
James, I heard (tho not personally) that Benny Hinn believes that when God gave dominion to Adam over all the earth, including the creatures, he gave Adam the ability to literally fly with the birds, otherwise he would not have complete dominion over them. Apparently then Adam (and mankind) lost that dominion at the fall. Have you or any of your readers ever heard that from Benny or anyone else?
Anyway, your post makes a lot of sense to me, and really challenges me, too.. Thank you for sharing it.
I have not heard that before. Thanks for sharing.
My father died when he was only 48 years old in 1986. I was a young 22-year-old at the time. I was very close to my father. It hurt me deeply when he died so very young and so suddenly and unexpectedly. I remember about 3 weeks after he died that he and I were having an enjoyable conversation while I was asleep that seemed so very real as if he was there in the room with me. It was only after it occurred to me while he and I were talking in my sleep that he was actually dead that the conversation ended, and I woke up in shock. My father was also very close to my youngest sister. She has sworn to this day that shortly after he died he appeared to her at the foot of her bed, and she was terrified. She was only 10 years old at the time, but I believe he was trying to assure both of us that he was doing just fine, and we will someday meet again in eternity. I believe God does allow the saved dead to say their goodbyes and give the living reassurance.
My ex-wife had an uncle, Chuck, who was unsaved. He was always one of these happy-go-lucky guys that got along great with everybody, and he was very funny – the life of the party. He died about 7 seven years ago. While he was on this Earth, he never sought salvation or took Christianity seriously and used to joke all the time about it. My ex-wife always was bothered after he died fearing that Chuck was in a bad place. One night, approximately two weeks after he died, she had a horrible vision of her Uncle Chuck in a spherical ball of flames in agony screaming. She had a tough time going back to sleep that night. It is an image etched forever on her mind. She has been hesitant to tell this to many members of her family.
Wow, very heavy stuff. Thanks for sharing Carl.
Carl,
I believe everything you have written here. Thank-you for sharing. These accounts match the principles in the book “Dying Testimonies of the Saved and Unsaved,” compiled by a minister, J. B. Shaw. These testimonies cover an approximate 400 year period. I believe this book was published in the 1800’s.
Thanks James for this dream. As an child I was enthralled with the book Jonathan Livingston Seagull. I knew I was called to fly beyond what was considered the norm and push the limits of flight. I have flown several times in dreams, those are the ones I don’t want to wake up from, they challenge the truth that the Father has been revealing to me in a variety of ways. That is that we as His Sons are not bound by the Laws of this Earth. We have not because we ask not or we ask amiss. As Paul Y. Cho in his book The Fourth Dimension stated, if we can see it in our redeemed spirit and reach out and lay hold of it by faith, we can pray/declare the vision and he gives the assurance we have what we ask. Our Good Father has so much for us.
Consider this. All creation groans for the manifestation of the Sons of God. Those air molecules have been longing to support us just like the H2O did when Peter stepped out of the boat. Selah!
This really tickles me.
Thanks again.
James this post resonates with me because I have had a few visions where I have flown to heaven in the spirit. I remember about a year ago I was called up by God and my spirit was flying further up but for some reason I got afraid and ended up flying straight back down to earth. Subsequently, I prayed for courage and I remember this one vision where I was entering an exam hall and started praying before the exam…next thing was I found myself flying out of the building (my spirit that is I couldn’t see my body) and I was flying further and further up, all the while singing a praise song. I remember o flew past a fruit and veg market stall and grabbed something. I continued flying further up until I reached what I can only describe as the happiest celebration/party in the clouds. I remember it was so vivid and there were bright colours everywhere. Children and adults alike were having the time of their lives. Again it was l
was meant to write that it was the most beautiful scene I have ever seen. Prior to having this vision before I fell asleep, I remember I was crying out to God for some peace as I was going through one of the toughest times in my life and I specifically recall asking God “take me to your hills where people are happy and at peace”. He answered my prayer in the most remarkable of ways. Unfortunately, Holy Spirit slowly zoned me out of the vision but I remember waking up with the biggest smile on my face…I will never forget that experience.
Awesome and encouraging experiences, Natalie.
Thank-you for sharing.
You’re more than welcome Peggy, I was just excited to read that others are also experiencing the phenomenon of flying in the spiritual realm.
I really enjoyed breading this. I love, love, love the supernatural!!!! Jesus makes all things possible. Lord I wanna fly!!!!!!
Wonderful Word, James! I will pray to be used for His purpose & open myself up for supernatural experiences to battle supernatural forces. Very exciting times!
Just a note James that many dates & times are incorrect on this post. Some from 2014 & 3015. Is this a repost of an older dream you had? Just curious.
The 2014 date shown in this post is correct. That is when I received this dream. I shared it two years ago and decided to repost it today because most of the people following Z3 did not know about it two years ago.
Thanks James, inspiring,confirming, encouraging!
James I have had numerous dreams of flying. I can remember when I begin having the first dreams. It was shortly after I got saved. At the time I believed I would fly. There was no doubt in my mind. I remember telling family members about the dreams and that I really believed I would fly. They may have thought I was crazy but I didn’t care. I know with God all things are possible. In the years since those first dreams I still occasionally have those dreams. In the dreams, I can feel the Spirit of the Lord raising me up into the air and I’m often proclaiming some truth from the Word of God. I have also walked through walls in my dreams.
My dad served the Lord faithfully. When he died, I was not a Christian. But since that time I have had very clear dreams of him. The one I remember the most was when I seen him and I ask him if we would go to church together in heaven? He tried so hard to get me to attend church with him while here on earth. His response in the dream was, ” we will worship together”. At the time I knew very little about God’s Word or worship. I have never doubted that this was a vision from God letting me speak with my earthly father after he went to heaven giving me reassurance that I would see him again.
Thanks for sharing that Lydia.
James ; Several years ago I received ” Is 40″ from the Lord (mount up as on wings of an eagle). I pondered it’s meaning and concluded I don’t know, maybe it’s referring to the rapture because I certainly didn’t rise up in any physical way in my life. As I read your post this morning, it sorta clicked. “AH, this about rising up in our spirit where the Holy Spirit resides.” I left to run an errand and noticed a large banner on the front of a building. It said “Eagles Soar”!! I nearly ran off the road! God is good and thank you James for helping to redirect my thoughts in the meaning of rising up and soaring(flying) and accomplishing things in and through the power of the Holy Spirit. GB
Thanks for sharing that Gary.
Short encouraging message through KERRY ANN GIDDEN about angels coming down to get us, turning to resemble humans, then taking “us” to places of safety. She said this will not happen with everyone.

Thanks for sharing that Peggy I really needed some encouragement right now.
Amen, Jeff. Thanks for ALL you do! Your blog is AWESOME, and your new “Whistleblower Jeff” headlines are very helpful….. GREAT JOB! God bless!
Well I have help!
Thank God, I could never do it alone.
It’s all for Jesus and the Glory of His kingdom.
I must admit it will be nice to rest someday LOL
But He is my rest…May the Lord bless you mightily as well
James, I am noticing the dates on the comments are all over the place. Just thought I’d point it out incase you arent aware.
Yes, I noticed that, too. It seems rather confusing. It helps, though, to click on “newest” in the “Sort by:” category.
I received this dream in 2014 and originally shared it then too. I reposted it because most people following Z3 today did not know about it two years ago.
Thank you for sharing this. I have been “flying” since I was in my late 20s, I am now 63. I’ve also been given to show others how to “fly” in the spirit. It rests on faith and obedience. He, the Holy Spirit, trains us to let go of all that we hold on to and to fully trust Him. The more we do, the higher and freer we are able to fly in the spirit.
We have to lay aside all our preconceptions and even, to a certain degree, all that we think we know. You are right. It is our own knowledge, which has become our traditions, which places a limit on what God wants to teach us. We heard one teaching that was not from the Spirit but yet, we continue to hold to those teachings which we received long before we had discernment. Everything we know must be treated as filthy rags if we are to be taught more.
Paul mentions this for himself and for us. It is not that we are simply “discarding” what we’ve learned before but rather, we are “leaving them behind”. It is like learning the basics of mathematics but by leaving behind us what we’ve learned, we are able to learn far more. If we choose to “stay” only with what we’ve learned, we will not learn how to move to more advanced mathematics such as algebra, calculus, etc. One builds upon another and if we are not “flexible” enough to understand this, we will “bog down” with what we consider ‘dogma’.
Learning to “fly” in the spirit is learning how to be find that “rest” promised to us. Not until we find ‘rest’ will we finally begin to learn to fly. Now, to fly with our eyes closed and change into a relaxed position as if lying down and letting the Spirit take you where you cannot see you are going, THIS is true flying because “fear” has no more any place in us. We “look” because we “fear”. We want to “see” where we are going as if to “approve”. We are still in control. God wants us to relinquish total control to Him and allow Him to take us where we would not want to go because we will have been brought to such a place in our relationship with Him that we will totally trust Him no matter what our outward circumstances are….Even unto death.
Again, thank you for sharing this with us.
Found this interesting post that pertains to this topic. I’m not saying that this gift is a false gift but to use discernment.

Thank you Sandra, I am not exactly sure about the whole flying concept myself. I believe God can, has, and will have people travel or fly for his purposes. Whether that is something we can seek, or something that will be part of the end-times, I’m not sure.
Who believe we are going to be flying ?
If you have that kind of faith ,
Please try walk on the water first .
Try walk on a swimming pool or a river or a lake .
Just like Jesus and Peter walked on the water
( Matthew 14 : 22-33 )
If you can walk on the water , Surely you can fly .
God bless your faith .
Off Topic – A Dollywood employee found a page from the bible after the fire. The scriptures relate to “fire”. Amazing!
http://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/local/tennessee/2016/11/29/dollywood-employee-finds-burned-bible-page-after-wildfires/94630820/
It’s amazing the page found is of Joel Ch.1. It is well worth to read the article and see the versus that were eligible: 14 Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD,
15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.
16 Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yea, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
17 The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.
18 How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.
19 O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field.
20 The beasts of the field cry also unto thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
I had posted a comment on Thanksgiving about praying for Israel that was on fire and even said if this was a warning sign to us of what is to come and now this happens: fires/tornadoes yet in the midst of it all God’s word is Alive and Speaking! I am feeling so convicted because God continues to warn us and I don’t want to waste any more time of the worries of this world. We need to yield to the precious Holy Spirit and God help us to do what He has called us to do. “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.” Revelations 2:29.
Thinking of GROUP 1 in the dream that were not using their talents (or money) for the Kindgom, here is a reminder:
“Are You Using or Hiding Your Talents?”
https://believeacts2blog.wordpress.com/2016/05/08/5-8-16-are-you-using-or-hiding-your-talents/
Also, James, your dream sounds so familiar. It seems like perhaps you had published it here at an earlier time; perhaps at the time that you had the dream??
Of course, it must be almost impossible to remember all of the articles published here. There is SO MUCH information!
Sorry, I meant “Kingdom” above, not “kindgom”!
Listening to my Heart and not my Mind. That is what the Lord has been telling me lately. I try to figure things out that makes sense to me. I am going to pray that I can follow my Heart and not my Head. Thanks James for the post. I’m ready to FLY!
James,
This is an outstanding post. It is an inspiring reminder to stay in the Spirit, where all things are possible.
Thanks Peggy.
Prayer ALERT !
Please pray for a break through for a sister in theLord–E– she is having a
nervous breakdown as I right this —I am going to her home as soon as I get ready! I go like David ” In the name of the Lord ” Thank You !
LORD please help her have a breakthrough in Jesus Holy name!
Kathy,
God bless you. Remember the Name of Jesus is above EVERY NAME that can be named and that includes the names of any and every dis-ease. What you will be looking at are the “facts,” but always remember that the WORD OF GOD is TRUTH. TRUTH ALWAYS SUPERSEDES “facts”!
The Promises in the Bible are God’s Will for “E.” His WORD IS HIS WILL.
All of the Promises are YES and AMEN, and we can stand on them like today’s news.
I plead the BLOOD OF JESUS now over you and “E” and all associated with this. In the authority of Yahshua Ha Mashiach (Hebrew for Jesus the Messiah), I command the symptoms that “E” is manifesting to LEAVE in Yahshua’s Name.
I command her whole being to come into alignment with what Yahsua says in His Word about the TRUTH for her!
III John 2, “Beloved, I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health as your soul prospers.”
Kathy, find a list of Healing Scriptures and SPEAK them out in her behalf!
Prayerfully,
Peggy
Praise God —great is His faithfulness !
Our prayers were answered—concerning my friend ” E” s intervention.
Appreciate all the thumbs up, I know prayers were attached to them!
Thank you Peggy –Amen to what you wrote , Amen also –Jesse T.
The situation with E is that most people have given up on her —-you know the
saying ” they kill their own” or something like that —Heard the Holy Spirit say
GO –and I said, only in your anointing.
BUT GOD –Who is able to do abundantly more than we can even comprehend—-Came through !!!!
Prayed in the Spirit all the miles I drove —-staying on topic ” Flew ” over
to her house in —-I really believe in ” Spirit warped ” time !
James —-love this post , it’s courageous ! We live way under what
the Lord has for us —if we just step out –He will show us !
Kathy,
I felt the Holy Spirit all over me as I read your post. I claim a continued and maintained healing for “E.” I love that you told the Holy Spirit (“only in your anointing”). Awesome and correct. Kathy, I claim many more wondrous exploits for you in the powerful anointing of the Holy Spirit. May His anointing continue to grow and increase upon you. May you literally swim in it! These situations are training/victory opportunities for us right now. Blessings sent, Kathy.
Amen Peggy A.
Blessings received and back to you! Sisters in flight !
thanks for the reminder James. What a good word
Sometimes going through trials on earth can burden the mind until you see it with spiritual insight.
I’m just curious??? Some of these replies are from 2014??? The date at the top of page implies you had this dream last night. Can you please clarify?? Is this a repost??? Or is there a glitch in the replies?
I re- looked and saw how your post says you had this dream 2 years ago. Is this part of the instructions. To re-release the dream in 2 years? 😉
Please read the first sentence.
I had a dream on 11/24/15. I was with several people and they were watching me as I demonstrated how to supernaturally fly to Heaven. I was meeting resistance and could only go up about 7 feet high. Suddenly, Jesus came flying towards me very quickly. I realized I couldn’t ascend because my body was not like Jesus’s body. His body was Spirit and mine was not. Jesus was wearing a white robe. EOD. After waking I asked the Lord for interpretation. I heard Revelation 21:10 ” and he carried me away in the spirit to the mountain great and high and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God.”
I didn’t record this dream in my journal until11/30/15…(interesting date). At that time I asked the Lord for further interputation. He said to turn on the TV. Rabbi Kurt Schneider was giving a message titled ” A parallel reality”. He was preaching from Galatians 5 on the deeds of the flesh. Some of the key points I recorded from his message were: Resistance is key, Builds Spiritual muscles and Discipline yourself.
Thank you James for re-posting this article.
Amen James , just a week ago HOLY SPIRIT brought up that old song to me —- Believe it or not I am walking on air — seemed silly at the time , Now I understand what HE is saying with the song .
John,
From the show “The Greatest American Hero.” A Blast from the past. Now that song will be in my head for the day! LOL! Here are the lyrics so everyone can have it in their heads all day!
Look at what’s happened to me,
I can’t believe it myself.
Suddenly I’m up on top of the world,
It should’ve been somebody else.
Believe it or not,
I’m walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it’s just me.
It’s like a light of a new day-,
It came from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
Making all of my wishes come true-.
Believe it or not,
I’m walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it’s just me.
God transported Philip in Acts 8:39 and probably Ezekiel too.
James,
Just want to say thank you. This post is moving and humbling. I’ve had dreams of being able to go through walls and flying but I can’t say that these were from the Lord. You are so right when you say “our mind is the greatest hindrance that we face.” I pray that the Lord might also show me these marvelous things that you and others are experiencing. I haven’t experienced much in way of the supernatural – just a little and too often the bad side because of sin – but I pray that I grow in obedience and learn to yield my heart and mind to Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Of course each person has different gifts but I think the description of people sitting, walking and flying has more to do with the degree to which we are yielded to God. Clearly you are yielded. Matthew 5:8 – the pure in heart will see God. May countless souls be saved through your ministry. Please pray for me to be effective and bold where I am (Ephesians 6:19). Thank you and God bless!
Amen Eduardo. I claim effective ministry and boldness to fulfill everything God has called you to do in the name of Jesus.
But they that wait upon the Lord shall mount up with wings as eagles…
I can bear witness to this as I’m going through training myself, via dreams.
As the article stated, you’ve GOTTA be led by the Lord’s voice, emanating from within your heart. The enemy is masterfully subtle — and can deceive so, so quickly and efficiently in the “dream world” if you’re not holding fast to God’s voice (that, and if you’re not adept in knowing His Word).
I’m finding that diligent, elongated prayer time with Him is a must, also.
He must increase. I must decrease.
I love this message 🙂
Amen agree. I also had a flying experience But not on earth in the Heavenlies.I was flying so far that the earth was just a dot when I glanced back. But got scared and asked Holy Spirit to take me back witch just took a blink of the eye. It happened a few times were I gone other places as well. We are spiritual beings with a body mind and soul. Just ask The Holy Spirit and He will show you,
I had a similar dream a year ago. It was awesome. Therefore I take it as confirmation that the Lord is preparing His people for such a time as this. We have assignments to do as we all were created with a purpose. God’s will be done.
Spirit is moving! LORD recently gave me dream pertaining to Rev12:14’s woman (New Jerusalem/Mother of us all/144K) takes flight to wilderness (I’ll be posting a video about it, soon): I sensed our/144K flight to wilderness occurs upon execution of Feast-of-TRUMPets’ judgments “October 15” date YAH SET & revealed to me (Amos3:7); upon United Nations’ 70-yr completion, which is 10/2016 (Jer25:12). (The “October 15” registered yet the year He showed me did not stay in my memory; I should have written it down right away but was too dazed from dream & vision). Regarding people going back-n-forth from heaven = Dan12:4’s “to & fro”; “increased knowledge” =144K gleaners get nourished at mealtime in-between harvest assignments like Ruth 2:14, which also reflects when we/144K are killed (Dan12:7; Rev11:7) yet rise after 3rd day (Hos6:2; Rev11:11-12). A fellow servant was told we get our wings on our b-day, day of our Ezek9:4 Visitation, marking/sealing; makes sense as such will be my 3rd yr since visitation, as Daniel, et al & Apostle Paul were in training for 3 years prior to service; Dan1:5; Gal1:17). I look forward to more gleaning from this cite I was just led to. You may want to visit my channel, see Trib Est. Timeline/Outline http://youtu.be/VJkKOI7eqng (think you’ll like the music ? (Note: I need to edit my timeframe as my “daily bread” affords me better insight – PTL). Also see vid#8, reflecting when YAH declared HIS Feast-of-TRUMPets to me; currently in Beginning of Sorrows awaiting FOTs Trumps to sound: “Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! They walk, O LORD, in the light of Your countenance. In Your name they rejoice all day long, and in Your righteousness they are exalted. For You are the glory of their strength, and in Your favor our horn is exalted. For our shield belongs to the LORD, and our king to the Holy One of Israel.” Amen. –sister Ruth
Timing is one of the most challenging things to deal with. We know these things are coming, but we are not given any dates. However, the scriptures reveal many specific things that must happen before the rapture of the church, which helps us locate other events as well.
Both John and Jesus identified the sequence of end-time events listing the same events in the same order, so that gives us a roadmap to follow (Revelation 6 and Matthew 24). Based on that, we know we still have years to go before we reach the end of this age because many major events have not happened yet, including the next big one, which is world war, which occurs after the breaking of the second seal. There are still five more seals after that. I documented some of these events in my post, https://z3news.com/w/ten-things-that-must-happen-before-the-rapture/
Based on all that must happen first, I do not believe we are going to see the fulfillment of Revelation 12 this year.
Rick Joyner speaks about not only walking on water but also walking on air (“greater works shall you do”). ( Incidentally Mel Tari in “Like a Mighty Wind” speaks of the many miracles the LORD performed during the revival in Indonesia which included walking across a river in flood stage). I’ve had many dreams about flying but the power lines are annoying.
Hi Martin, I am curious–what do the power lines represent?
I’ve flown many times in my dreams too. I can only do it if my heart is right with God and I have to mentally connect with him. I laughed when I read Martin Semroks dream. I too, have to watch out for the power lines. I’ve always thought they were earthly distractions that we sometimes need to gingerly manuvier around. I do believe we will really fly. There are times when I feel so close to God, that I just want to go outside and jump up and soar. I know in my spirit that God told me it isn’t time yet. I’m patiently waiting.
Martin, I haven’t encountered power lines yet but have clipped a few tree branches. I find I am still working to perfecting my landing….it’s that first step back on terra firma.
Have you ever found yourself with actual wings? Like in Isaiah 40:31? Most of my flying is done with actual wings. My recent training has evolved around how to use them…pumping them harder to go faster…tucking them in to dive…turning…etc.
I have had several flying dreams, also. The first that I recall is that I had climbed a mountain. Someone was behind me and I saw the top of the mountain coming closer as I walked on the path, but I realized that I had no where else to go, still someone following me. I heard, Trust Me. I didn’t know what to do? I was just frozen for a moment of inner turmoil, then I stepped off the mountain. (no I wasn’t tempting God). At first I began to fall, but slowly, or slow motion, then I perceived the hand under me, and I began to fly. Another memorable dream was that I was in the air, observing something really amazing. It was like a map, or circuitry of some kind, and I knew it was for transportation. Next, I am in the dream, no longer observing it, and where ever I thought to go, I was already there spontaneously. I thought, this is how it is in heaven, moving in the spirit. One last dream. I saw something that looked like little almonds or seeds on a white background. It was way up close for a moment, I couldn’t tell what it was, It immediately moved back and I saw layers of white upon white, still wondering what it was, then It moved further back and I saw that it was an angel. I thought, where are it’s feet, then the angel moved up close, so that the little spots that I saw in the white became very clear. They were eyes. As soon as I realized that, I was amazed, and the eyes acknowledged that they were there in the wings. I then understood that the angel didn’t need feet, it moved in the will of God. These that I have written here, and the ones I have read here, speak to me of transport. It has been mentioned about Phillip, and in Paul’s testimonies, As Paul said, he wasn’t sure whether in the body, or in the spirit, but he testified that he was in the third heaven. Amen
Loved the article and your experiences. I’ve had flying dreams as early as ’76, the year I got saved. Now, many years later and too many dreams of flying to recount, the dreams of flying are, in effect, a picture and type of what it means to flow in the Spirit of God. Since we’ve been born again according to the Spirit of God, we are growing in Him, learning to trust Him as He proves Himself to us. Like the Ezekiel river from the throne, we are drawn to step in the ankle deep waters. We are still in control while He begins to introduce us to Himself and show the refreshing and peace He can bring us. We are drawn by Him out into the deeper waters of knee deep. We are still in control with our feet on the earth but are beginning to feel the power of His Word in us. As we gain greater confidence in Him, we are drawn out to the waist deep waters. In the waist deep waters, the power of His Word becomes very compelling as we are discovering how His Word is powerful enough to carry us away and it is in this part of the waters that we are being taught how to let go of our control and trust His control. Yes, we are learning how to swim. Finally, in Ezekiel 47, the waters get to be so deep that we no longer can touch the bottom with our feet and lose all control and must trust Him to carry us as we learn to fully trust Him in all things.
The dreams of flying I’ve had were initially learning how to fly. At first, I had to run and jump and would stay in the air, just above the ground, for great distances. Then I tried to gain altitude but kept flying into obstacles like trees, communication lines and power lines. Eventually, not long, I learned to simply “will” myself into the air and literally float as high or low as I chose. There were those of my family who saw me and tried to jump high enough in order to pull me back down to earth where they were. Even my mother commanded me to come down but I dared not to. I knew that what I had was something special and if I obeyed my family’s words/commands, I would lose what new found freedom I had.
The next few dreams, I was teaching my family members to fly. I would go straight up for about 30 feet and float down. They would not try so I lifted up from the ground, turned on my back with my hands locked behind my head for support, close my eyes and fly. Judging by the reactions of those on the ground, I was sure I came dangerously close to a particular building but fear never entered in. I kept my eyes closed, not through fear but because I trusted the Lord completely and knew that wherever I went was because He was the One carrying me there.
Many more flying dreams through the years with each their own lesson. Whether we will be flying in this world physically or not, to me, is not the issue. The flying “lessons” I’ve had all pointed to one irrefutable truth, God wants us to mount up on wings as eagles, not literally but spiritually. Flying in dreams indicate a freedom in the Spirit as God entrusts more and more of His plan into our lives as we leave behind the restrictions of earth and turn our focus on the things above. We pray for the kingdom of heaven and God’s will be done on earth in the same way as it is in heaven. We need to be more heavenly minded than earthly minded. This is simple and basic truth that so many refuse to accept. Satan has deceived many who cannot believe that everything in this world needs to be forsaken. The concept of death to self cannot get past the natural mind of most Christians. He wants to change that and one way of working that change is for them to see what God can do through one who is completely sold out to the Spirit of the Lord.
One of my early prayers was to ask the Lord to so transform my mind, my thinking processes, my perspective to where I will no longer think as a man but to truly take on the Mind of Christ. To think as He thinks, to see what He sees, to understand as He understands. I wanted my mind to be so transformed that all my thoughts will be His thoughts and every word I speak will be His words and not my own. He has answered this fervent prayer and now, many years later, I can say that I can literally “hear” the heart of my Father. As such, He sends me to those He wants me to speak to and all they hear from my mouth is the Father’s heart towards them. Every soul He sends me to is greatly impacted by His touch in their lives as the secrets of their heart are revealed and Jesus is magnified.
The way to “fly” is the same as the way to “swim”. We MUST relinquish all control to the Holy Spirit. The promise to the born again believer is that we’ve been given the “power” to “become” sons of God and Romans 8:14 confirms this by declaring that “those who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God.” The only path to sonship is by way of the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit. He was sent to prepare us for sonship. Jesus spent 30 years of His life being prepared for service but was first “approved” as a son before any service was performed. He learned to “fly” before ever taking flight. He was continually in the Spirit being carried away by the Spirit to wherever and whenever the Father wanted to take Him. He showed us how important it is to be completely reliant on the Spirit of His Father which is the Holy Spirit. This is what Jesus did, He was no longer “bound” by earthly rules. His was a walk in the Spirit, just like the wind He told Nicodemus of. We are carried by that wind of God’s Spirit to wherever He chooses. If we are to be “translated” through supernatural transport as Philip was, then to us, this is not something that will take us by “surprise” but will be reflective of our “normal” course of walking in obedience to the One who has orchestrated all things before there was any.
Faith laid the foundation while obedience builds the house. We will do everything the Spirit of the Lord says to do, no matter how “impossible” it may seem. I have seen it, been used in it and during those events He allowed me to participate in, I did not “react” while the event was happening but later, long afterward, that elation came as the full impact hit me but “during” this time of obedience, His peace completely enveloped me and nothing I saw or did seemed “strange” as they were all perfectly “normal”.
I would be excited to literally fly and while in heaven, there is nothing to prevent me from flying but on earth, God “may” have plans to allow physical flight but supernatural transport is more than likely the avenue He intends with plenty of scriptural proofs of this.
Sounds as though you could of been in your translated body as Jesus was when he was risen from the dead. Except those who are translated won’t have to die first!!! You must have been in the facilities that are forcing the mark of the beast and evading them as Jesus also did to those who tried to trap him.
My son left this earth 2 years ago at the age of 28. Three months after he passed, I was worshipping alone in my room and was taken to my home in heaven. My son had built me a music room and we worshiped together in that room. After that I went to heaven again and again. It was marvellous. So nice, to have like-minded experiences with other believers.
When you went to heaven , did you fly in your spirit or in your physical body ?
Can our physical body with our clothes on fly and enter the Heaven where all the saints and angels abide ?
Aren’t Angels and the saints spiritual being ?
Hi Kim, wow what you shared made me cry. I lost my mom two years ago, she was only 67. I miss her so much, besides my husband she was my best friend. She loved the Lord and is in her heavenly home. I asked the Lord tonight if I could have an experience like you did with your son. It would be awesome to just see my mom and see heaven and where she is. Thank you for sharing. Blessings, Corrine
Kim I just finished a book called Josiah’s Fire by Tahni Cullen. It is the story of an autistic boy who has angelic visions and frequent visits to heaven. He describes our loved ones who are now in heaven as having tasks to accomplish to assist us still here on earth, and of mansions and rooms that are unique to each one of us based on the desires God has placed in our hearts. Your visitation description is so similar to what Josiah describes it’s uncanny. God bless you Kim.
Have you heard this song by Jason Upton called “Fly”
It contains an awesome testimony at the bottom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHRWo-TrjXQ
No, but I’ll have to check it out. Thanks!
Revelation 4:1 says, After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”
I decided to go and step in by faith and the Lord met me there in the spirit. Over time I began to have encounters with Him especially one where I was sitting on the top of a mountain with Him overlooking a huge valley. One day he said to me to jump off and fly. My first thought was how I was going to land. Just as I thought that I saw a vision of an eagle landing. Anyway i jumped off and began flying over the valley. Each time I stepped into heavenly places i was encouraged to practice flying. The Lord told me he wants me to fly because when i can fly i can go anywhere. Sometimes i would crash land on the mountain and the lord and i would laugh. After a few months i found that i could soar. The Lord told me that i had always wanted to fly jet planes because i am an eagle. More recently i have been stepping in and instead of soaring like an eagle i find myself taking off and moving like superman. Your post encouraged me to share my own experiences with flying.
That is awesome! I love knowing people like you are out there going after all God has for you! Keep on flying and the rest of us will try to keep up with you!
I once felt like the Lord was telling me to go back and look at a word I had written down earlier. As I went through those words, I came to the one I felt He was leading me to. I had forgotten about the word I had written down. It said …. From Clark Kent to Superman.
You are very welcome James!!! It is my honor and pleasure to serve the one true King!!!
James, thank you for sharing your dream, sometimes on our journey the father seems to show us direction and encouragment through differant situations and people like yourself who take the time and effort to share boldly what He desires for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see,last night i had a dream that mirrored what this dream is saying……so seeing this today sooo encourages me….and is making me pursue even more passionatly what i believe he is doing with those who are willing to step out and enter into this next dispensation. thank you Brother…..and Be encouraged…..Greg Salazar.
Thanks!
As I was reading this dream and all the comments I was thinking how much this correlates to our lives here on earth. We are all given tests and assignments to see how obedient we are and will be to the Lord.
When we are going through trials & tests on this earth, when we listen with our minds and when we don’t allow the Holy Spirit to guide our decisions then we fail the tests miserably. However, if we will listen with our hearts, if we will allow the Holy Spirit to guide us and if we will discern what we have been taught for years to be open to learning new things then we pass these tests and assignments with flying colors. When we wait upon the Lord He gives us strength and guidance and we soar like eagles!!!
Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Thanks Rebecca! I needed to hear that today.
Hello James,
Your dream is quite profound!!! Thanks so much for sharing. May I share it on my http://www.ecclesiaofburningones.wordpress.com ?
Elizabeth
Sorry to take so long to reply. Your comment somehow mistakenly went to my spam section. I just found it. It is fine with me if you want to share my post. All I ask is a link back to Z3news.com. Thanks!
Sir! I have the most amazing back up to this dream, to encourage you. I am in Scotland and asked God to give me more edifying friends on facebook. Ones who i could feel were my brothers and sisters in Christ. I don’t know how it happened, but after stumbling on just one or two christian pages which i liked, i then began to fall into a network of on fire end timers who are so clued up it’s exciting! A small group of them are very focused on running and spreading the news that is best encapuslated in this website: http://www.thecallofthebride.com/
Please please take the time to read through this site and think about how it matches up to your dream. If it does, then it’s time to join in on spreading the word!
James,
I heard you on Trunews tonight so I look you up on the web and the flying dream caught my attention.
Throughout my Christian life I have had several flying dreams. Almost all of the dreams had me praying in tongues intensely as sort of a fuel for flight. In many of these dreams I am trying to teach others how to fly. I am astonished often in the dreams that others can not seem to get it. In one particular flying dream I fly up from the earth praying in the spirit seeing many others on the ground including some family members. In this dream I flew into the stars and I saw the stared outline of bird (phoenix) and then a stared outline of a bear. I researched this constellations and found that they are at extreme opposites of space; thus inferring praying in the spirit covers the realms of ‘ depths and heights’ .
Romans 8:26-27,38-39
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
thanks,

Thanks for sharing those dreams Charles! We’ll have to take some flights together!
Hi, just a few days ago I dreamt that security guards in a medical facility were trying to arrest me but I manage to out-outmaneuver them and run then I ended up with a group of unbelieving people who were lured to a place where people were being put to death, I managed to out-outmaneuver the guards at that place and run away. I woke up then went back to sleep, then I dreamt that I was back at the medical facility. Again, the security guards tried to arrest me again, I out-outmaneuvered them again then ran out of the facility then all of a sudden I was flying, really flying like superman, not to boast, really I was flying in the air. I believe as we approach the ends of the age, the devil is going to release a lot evil things in the world like genetic hybrid-super soldiers, but I believe the Lord has already something far greater in mind for the devil and his hordes.
This is just a wonderful format to share spiritual revelation. I believe I can fly!
“Learning To Fly”
by Tom Petty
Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
[Chorus:]
I’m learning to fly, but I ain’t got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good ol’ days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
[Chorus]
Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I’ve started out for God knows where
I guess I’ll know when I get there
I’m learning to fly, around the clouds
But what goes up must come down [and up again]
[Chorus]
There is a song by Switchfoot called “Float” that reminds me of flying in the Spirit every time I hear it. I’m not sure this was the intention of the writer, but I envision being trained (discipled by Jesus) to “FLOAT” more and more in the future. I used to have many flying dreams when I was much younger, and I want that back by the Spirit of God.
The Lord wants us to float above the circumstances in this life through our listening to Him and promptly obeying. I need much work on this, but I am willing to go flight school!
Hi James,
I love this article. Just a few days ago I was thinking how great it would be to fly like Phillip.
Mar 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
If you are in Jesus Christ and He is in you then you should be able to do everything he can do.
We died with him, we were resurrected with him, he rose up to the clouds, we should be able to rise up to the clouds…if we believe.
Miracles will manifest the sons of God.
There is a remnant of believers who are willing to dare to believe what He said and you are one of them!
Awesome Revelation! Let heaven invade earth.
I have never responded to anything on line, but I had to. I just heard you talk about your dream on trunews. The best part of that conversation was the ending, where you talked about The Lord’s light shining on us in this dark world. You told the audience to read Isaiah 60. Wow what a blessing, because I feel in my spirit that The Lord is preparing His church for such great things. You just confirmed to me what I have been feeling in my heart for a long time.
Thanks for sharing that Connie. I believe we are entering the most amazing days ever on this planet. The darkness will increase dramatically, but so is the light. I am excited about it too because it has already started! That was my first time ever on the radio. I felt very nervous so I am glad to hear something good came from it!
Truthmatters, I like your anonymous name; truth does indeed matter, very much! And you’re right, that any “truth” must stand up against the truth of God’s word; if it doesn’t, then it isn’t truth! It only takes a little bit of dog poop added to the brownie recipe to make the brownies inedible, and it only takes a little bit of falsehood to turn a truth into an untruth. Joel 2:28-29 in the Old Testament and Acts 2:17 in the New Testament both address the true prophecy that God’s servants (male and female saints who do His will) will see visions, dream dreams, and prophesy in these end times. But I gather that you already understand and accept that. It seems your concern is more one of making sure that a dream or prophecy aligns with the truth of the Bible. That is a good — essential! — aim. Especially since the Bible warns us that many false prophets will arise (Matt 24:11). In evaluating these dreams, have you considered 1 Cor 2:9 (and the surrounding verses for context) which says, “However, as it is written: ‘What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived’ — the things God has prepared for those who love Him — these are the things God has revealed to us by His Spirit….”? James and I are declaring that these things have been revealed to us by His Spirit. More to the point, how about John 14:12-14, spoken by Jesus: “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in Me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son…”? (Clearly, this presupposes that you ask something within the will and purpose of God, since anything else would not glorify God.) So we know that the miracles and other things done by the Holy Spirit through His servants in the end times will include things that not even Jesus did while He walked the earth. That makes flying possible. And anything else that accomplishes God’s will and purpose. Consider also Matt 17:20, “He (Jesus) replied, ‘… Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, “Move from here to there,” and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.'” Nothing! Nothing within the will and purpose of God. Do you have that much faith available to you? Yes! Ephesians 2:8 proves it: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God…” If you have the faith to believe that Jesus saved you from an eternity in hell, then you have the faith given to you by God. If God has given you His faith, there cannot be anything insufficient about it. In other words, you have the God-given ability to believe; you only need to make the decision to do so. In summary, there are only three prerequisites: (1) You must be a saint (believer of Jesus’ payment on the cross for your sins, enabling you to spend eternity with God rather than in hell). (2) You must ask and act within God’s will and purpose. (3) You must have faith. This last part seems to be the biggest stumbling block for many, who believe that the time for miracles has passed, that they were only given to the apostles in the New Testament. If you fall in this category, I recommend that you first declare that you are willing to change your mind if you are wrong, and then pray for the Spirit to reveal the truth to you. Also pray Mark 9:24, “Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, ‘I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!'”
Debra,
You stated this above:
“It only takes a little bit of dog poop added to the brownie recipe to make the brownies inedible, and it only takes a little bit of falsehood to turn a truth into an untruth.”
Here is a correlative passage from the Holy Bible:
Book of Ecclesiastes 10:1
“Dead flies make the perfumer’s ointment give off a stench;
so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honor.”
Hi James,
Thanks for your sharing. You mentioned about the detailed instructions from the Lord that apply to you only. PLEASE work on those and bear fruits…MUCH Fruits so that NO man (Jews or gentiles) can deny that God work through you by HIS Holy Spirit. ” For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.” (John 3:2b).
Year 2015 is the Year of HIS Power

dreams and visions. must fit biblical truth .You following the dreams as truth and will not rightly divide the truth .
Your dream reminds me of dozens I’ve had, either about flying on Kingdom business or teaching saints how to fly and work in other supernatural gifts of the Spirit. Details differ, but the same concepts! The Spirit only gives us the gift(s) we are ready for (have enough faith for). But each success increases faith, enabling more success,… Here’s one short example, recorded in my journal May 28th – my only dream with pillows:
I was teaching someone like my brother how to fly. We flew while sitting upright on big, fluffy pillows. He was a good student and learned quickly. Then we had a lot of things to carry, and as we divided the load between us, I wanted to give the big, heavy piece of sheet metal to him because his pillow was so much larger than mine; I assumed he could fly with the heavier load while my small pillow would sink to the ground under the weight. But he was unable to hold it, so I took it after all. I found that my pillow did not sink at all.
This dream reminded me that the Holy Spirit has enough power and strength to carry ANY load. We must not doubt, but walk – or fly! – by faith and not by sight. The only way we’ll be able to travel reliably under marshal law is supernaturally. Looks like you, James, will be among those teaching others how to travel in the Spirit, whether by flying or translating (Acts 8:38). For a lesson on translating now, see Bruce D. Allen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZsaNzZKLUw.
Who needs airline tickets anymore? Sounds fun to me!
Lanie Bailey yes so many following dreams and so called vision over God word these days .Those departing from the truth unto lies and fables .
Please explain why the Bible is filled with examples of God giving His people dreams and visions. He is the same God today.
Thanks James for this encouraging word, btw just read this verse last night which resounds with what you said;
Eliahu”s rebuke to Job; (Job 33)
13Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.
14For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.
15In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
16Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,
You must have struck a nerve! Consider it joy. In some instances, this one included, I think that the more the trolls show up, the more “on the mark” the message is.
I have to disagree there. I think relying on troll comments is not a good measurement of whether the message is “on the mark”. Anyone can feel persecuted by anyone who simply disagrees with them. Even occultists can claim that their message is “on the mark” because Christians are against their works. Does that now validate their beliefs in demons and that Lucifer is the real god? Nope.
There is truth that many depart from God’s truth unto lies and fables (recent example: false prophecies surrounding the elections). There is also truth that God does speak through visions and dreams, and this I know personally. Discernment and clinging to the Word is key here.
The ones stoned for being false ..You are not being persecuted you being judge rightly by God word .But you pride in yourself refuse to listen .
Some things are best left in God’s hands. “But these men revile the things which they do not understand; and the things which they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed.” (Jude 1:10)
I did a programme with Rick Wiles on Trunews back on April 28th of this
year, i believe it to be a parallel to flying high, but involving christians on
the Lords ball diamond. The Lord was imploring His people to get into the
ball game. Get out of the dugout and get up to the plate, get into the game.
As your faith grows you will start off hitting singles on my behalf, i will
strengthen you, encourage you, so that you will start hitting doubles, then
triples, then home runs. But wait the best is yet to come. You will soon
as it were be flying high because you will be hitting GRAND SLAMS FOR
ME. Nothing is IMPOSSIBLE for those that BELIEVE.
Hi James,
Awesome post! I even found out from one of the comments that loving Jesus and going to the IHOP prayer room every morning to love on God and seek His face means I belong to a cult! WOW!
I don’t know how Philip in the new testament was moved from one place to another without walking, but one thing I do know, is that legalistic doubters will NEVER experience the ‘greater works’ Jesus promised we would do before He returns. Jesus had to deal with the pious ‘religious’ people who eventually put Him to death, and so do we. Keep doing what you’re doing!
James Jansen
Glad you liked the post James. Not sure why IHOP got attacked in these comments but I hope they will keep on doing what they are doing too because they are a huge blessing to me. Thanks for the encouragement!
OK so wow. My first two responses did not make it past cyber land. One of these days when I have more time, will post again.
All comments get received for review before they show up online.
Hello James. Thank you for sharing your dream. I just listened to your dream on the Rick Wiles show so found your blog. The Lord has shown me and spoken to me that there will be a group of people in the soon coming days who will truly walk as He walked in the earth. These people will be full of the Holy Spirit and will cause many to come to the Lord and many to be encouraged and healed.
I do, however, want you to ask the Lord about a more spiritual rather than literal interpretation of your dream. I believe that the group of people flying is symbolic in nature, the flying represents the spiritman being empowered by the Holy Spirit as opposed to people trying to complete tasks in the flesh. This group of people will be completely in the Spirit and able to perform great things for the LORD because of that.
Also, the picture of the bus and your father in it with you as well as others who have gone on before is not literal. It is symbolic of the spiritual investment they have made in your life and the lives of others on the bus. Their prayers for you live on before the Lord. The Word they implanted in you lives on and is part of the spiritual DNA with which you will be operating. It is a cooperative and multigenerational work.
His blessing upon you, James
Linda Conner
Sorry for the delay in replying to your comment. It somehow got buried in our spam section so I just now found it. I agree with your interpretation of the dream. My conclusion was to embrace radical faith to do anything, including flying. It appears you have a gift for interpreting dreams.
Kingdom Now, Manifest Sons of God, Dominion Theology……..Oh yes contemplative prayer……..IHOP….Elijah List………..channeling…….. deceived people. Read farther in Daniel after a season of EXPLOITS read on now……..they will be tried by the flame and the sword. They seem to miss that part and many others taken out of context. Only the “new breed” will be flying around so gloriously while the others will be giving their very lives for HIS name sake. You don’t need another dream or vision or book to see what is so blatantly before your very eyes. Just google these so called prophets and seers and just put debunked behind their names and do your own due diligence. Get ready American Christian it is not as rosy as you think, just look at those being martyred right now , pray for them and for yourselves so you are not part of the falling away all the while you think YOU are going to be doing all these great miracles instead of HIM. Take the focus off self and put it on Jesus. Be Christ centered instead of man centered.
The Lord’s prophets have always been persecuted and even killed. It is an honor for me to be persecuted with them.
Great stuff. It strikes me that the your dream illustrates the same dynamic that occurs in these posts: some wish to embrace what the Lord is giving through dreams, visions, etc, while others wish to remain earthbound and closed-minded. As a pastor I see this sort of thing all the time, and I deeply wish everyone would take flight. Alas, that is not so. Bless you James!
Jesus being God spoke to Moses and Elijah .You not God nor am I . Bible forbids talking to the dead .Please read it you follow your own opinion far to much . As for your dream hey we all have dreams does not mean God gave you the dream . I know from my past post, you are very much against any telling you anything of truth .
The greater thing is to sow to the harvest by witnessing it not something you have to learn to do.it just have to go and just do .Get some gospel tract and witness .
Hey Jim,
Excellent dream, pretty amazing actually. I’ve had similar thoughts during my prayer times. About a year ago, I was just praising the Lord & the thought came to me about flying around heaven. I imagined flying around heaven checking out what was going on then coming back & telling people what I saw & heard. Pretty soon, I imagined that there was a lot of us, in this generation, that would go to heaven. We were flying around, dodging the Guardian Angels, checking out everything, even places that were sorta “off limits” for us to know about. It was like the Guardian Angels were complaining to God about us saying, “God, we cannot stop these people from flying around here. We run one group out & there are more flying in from other directions, it is like they are everywhere.” God sorta chuckles & the Lord Jesus just says, “These 21st century Christians are something else, they are finally getting My Message & being free in Me. Don’t get too upset Michael, they are not hurting anything.” I whole heartily agree with your dream, we haven’t begun to scratch the surface of what God will allow us to do for Him if we learn to follow the Holy Spirit that dwells in our hearts. It is such a battle not to listen to the religious thoughts & fears in our minds that we were raised up in. But, I have determined I am going on with the Holy Spirit even if no one goes with me. I’ll see you flying around heaven!
Great to hear from you Darryl. I look forward to seeing you in the air!
