Christianity was never meant to be a dry religious system. Your relationship with God is not just a list of rules or a “get-out-of-hell-free” pass.
God is inviting you into supernatural encounters with His presence and power today!
James Goll is an internationally respected prophet whose revelatory teaching ushers people into the supernatural realities he writes about. In God Encounters Today, James shares powerful, Biblical teaching on the different kinds of amazing spiritual encounters you should expect as a Christ-follower.
Learn how to:
Position yourself to experience the supernatural realms of God
Biblically define what God-encounters look like, so you have clear vision for what you are pursuing
Access and recognize different kinds of God-encounters: Angelic encounters, Visitation encounters, Spiritual Warfare encounters, Intercessory encounters and Dream encounters
Release the power of your encounters and live your everyday life with a new awareness of God’s abiding presence
As God awakens your hunger for these divine encounters, He will satisfy your desire!

This is one of James Goll's older books, written with his wife, Michal Ann, quite a few years ago. It starts rather slowly, but picks up by Chapter 4. As always with Mr. Goll, it is biblically sound. He is careful to warn against some of the popular trends which are common in prophetic circles.
Some shorter quotes from the book:
"Never lift up a vessel [person] who brings the Word of God. Lift up Jesus!"
"Never allow what you hear through others to become a substitute for hearing the Holy Spirit's voice for yourself."
"God's revelatory power graces are not elitist; I want to shatter this small-minded mentality in the Church that believes God's supernatural power is for an elite group. Moving in the supernatural flow is for as many as will make themselves empty vessels and come to the Lord for filling."
One of Mr. Goll's oft-stated purposes is to encourage every one of us in God's family that we can hear from God in amazing ways. I appreciate his attention to emphasizing godly character above flashy prophetic gifts, too. This book is faithful to those goals.

Amazing
A great help to me, this book was utilized by Yahweh to teach me so much. Yahweh often uses triangulation to get lessons into me. He has connected sermons, books I've processed, His Word (written and spoken) to change and mold me to be more like Him. I am excited to see what is next. I'm grateful for the authors and I'd like then to know the Lord used them to reach such a one as me.

Excellent!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It wasn't what I thought it was. It definitely slapped my religiosity in the face. What I saw consistently being taught in this book was the importance of sanctification. And we as the Church have lost that teaching. But praise God, He is raising up an army of men and women that are completely in love with His heart. The name of the Lord be glorified!

Thank you to the authors!
