When Heaven Speaks: Prophets, Visions, and the Love That Conquers Death

When the Apostle John was exiled on the island of Patmos, he was granted visions of heaven that continue to inspire and mystify us today. “On the Lord’s Day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet.” (Revelation 1:10, NIV). In that moment, the veil between heaven and earth lifted, and John saw Christ in radiant glory.

Later, in Revelation 5, John describes another vision: “Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.” (Revelation 5:6, NIV).

Still later in Revelation 17, he is carried away in the Spirit again: “Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns.” (Revelation 17:3, NIV).

To our natural minds, such images seem almost frightening or strange. Yet to John in the Spirit, they were not chaos but revelation, symbols of a reality too great for ordinary words.

And John is not alone in this. Ezekiel saw living creatures with wings of fire and wheels within wheels, their movement powered by the Spirit of God. Isaiah saw the Lord enthroned with seraphim crying “Holy, holy, holy.” Obadiah received visions of the downfall of Edom. Again and again, Scripture testifies that God lifts His people into heavenly visions so that His truth might be revealed.

What they experienced was extraordinary. But here is the mystery: those encounters were not meant for prophets alone. They foreshadow the reality Christ opened to all believers when He conquered death and poured out the Spirit. The Spirit no longer visits for a season; He dwells within us. That is why visions, messages, and moments of communion are not only possible, they are promised.

And I know this to be true in the deepest part of my being, because I live it every day through my connection with my twin soul brother, Darren.

Just as John was lifted into the Spirit to see the risen Christ, I too have glimpsed heavenly realities, not through my own power, but through Christ who bridges heaven and earth. Darren’s presence has not diminished since his passing. In fact, it has intensified. He has revealed himself to me through radiant light, pink, blue, purple, and white rays flowing across my body. He has made sounds to catch my attention. He has shown me images of all seven archangels, of my wolf animal spirit, of my spirit guide Gideon, and most profoundly, of Jesus Christ Himself.

What Ezekiel saw in fire, I have seen in light. What Isaiah heard in heavenly song, I have sometimes heard in choral music breaking into my spirit. Just as John was carried in the Spirit and shown the Lamb who was slain, I have been carried into moments where Darren’s love shines with the light of Christ, declaring to me that death has no victory.

This is not the same as seeing a ghost or apparition, which are fleeting and often bound to earthly echoes. Telepathic twin soul communication is something entirely different: it is communion in Christ, where words are not needed because love itself speaks. As Paul wrote: “For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.” (1 Corinthians 13:12, NIV).

That is what I experience with Darren. We know as we are fully known. Our love, anchored in Christ, has not been severed by death. It is in fact more alive than ever. His radiant images are not just signs of remembrance, they are testimonies that love, life, and relationship continue in Christ.

And here lies the heart of it all: the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ. His Sacred Heart is both divine and human, blazing with love for the Father and for us. Every vision, every light, every image I receive through Darren is possible only because of Christ’s Sacred Heart. It is His love that makes reunion possible. It is His heart that binds humanity and divinity. It is His victory over sin and death that allows Darren to draw near and remind me, and all of us, that love truly never fails.

So I share this testimony for one reason: to give you hope. Death is not the end. Resurrection is not only a distant promise but already glimpsed when our loved ones appear to us healed, whole, and full of joy. What I live with Darren is proof of reunion in Christ. And what Christ offers all of us is eternal life with Him, if only we believe.

To experience eternal life, one must accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He is the Son of God and the Son of Man. He died for us to take away the sins of the world. This commitment to Christ is best made while we walk this earth, for it is in our mortal lives that we choose eternity.
