The following is a snippet of writing by Daniel Okorie

Date : March 5, 1999

That night, as I knelt down in front of my bed calling on the name of the Lord while praying, I remembered hearing a sudden sound coming into my room. It was a sound of soft music. I wasn’t sure were it came from, because both my door, and windows, were locked that night. 

I ignored the sound, and continued to pray to God. I am not sure how I ended up lying face-up on my bed while still calling on the name of the Lord. Then I started perspiring profusely.

Suddenly, the scenery changed; I heard many voices of angels singing a song of praise unto the Lord. It was the best praise I have ever witnessed in the whole wide world, and it drew my attention in the spirit world. 

The feeling I had was a mixed feeling of love, joy and strong passionate desire, for more of Him. The natural feelings I had suddenly vanished, and I fell into a trance right away. As I continued slipping deeper, and deeper, into the realm of the spirit, I started losing my senses. I became faint, and for some reason, felt I could not cope, with whatever that was going on, or taking place.

My entire body started trembling uncontrollably. I tried to regain consciousness in the flesh but could not as His presence filled the room, and His Spirit enveloped me. I remained in this helpless state for a while and continued to fade into the spirit realm. Unable to control what was happening to me, I surrendered completely to God. I gave in, stayed in, I yielded, and remained in the spirit.

Suddenly, I saw the second me emerge from my earthly body. I guess it was the spirit side of me leaving my earthly body. I was still lying face-up on my bed, and breathing heavily. I cannot describe exactly what was happening here. I remembered looking at myself while still lying down. It was the same me. No difference or change. One thing I knew was that one part of me, was lively and very active, and the other part (although alive and well) was resting peacefully on the bed in the room.

I met Jesus Christ. I fell on my knees and worshiped Him. He was wearing a white spotless glorious robe that shone like the light of the sun. His face glistered beautifully. He was indeed full of glory, and Majesty. There is something special about His eyes, that blazed with glory. I could see His love, right through His eyes. The crown on His head, was of beauty. He came over to me, touched me gently, and took me by the hand. I felt right at home, in His arms. I felt that I had been clothed with peace, and covered with His love. I walked with the Lord as He led the way.

He took me to hell and showed me what was going on in there. Hell was real! I saw it with my two eyes! It was real place of torment! I heard many voices screaming, yelling, crying and mumbling, something that seemed to speak of regret and a desperate cry for help. Hell looked like a burning furnace of reddish fire. It is an ocean of unquenchable fire. Thick dark smoke came out of it, and filled its surrounding air. I repeat: Hell is real!

Prayer

Father, reveal Your heart desire to us. Help us to know you and desire you more passionately. Thank You God for this wonderful revelation, and for stirring up my spirit. Thank You Lord for the gift you placed inside us. Thank you for this writing. Receive all the glory, honor, and praise forever. We pray in the mighty name of Jesus! Amen!
