Today at church I was so filled with the Holy Spirit, that God was giving me glimpses of being in his presence like I was in heaven looking back at times i worshiped God in church. This was during praise and worship time through singing. Has this ever happened to you? God just fills me with so much joy!

The glimpse of heaven was me being in Gods presence worshiping Him around His throne. I was singing Holy, holy, holy. I had my face to the ground and hands laid outward. I did not want to leave His presence. I had the feeling that i could be in His presence for ever.

Worship my friend is more than seeing yourself in Heaven while you sing to our Lord.
True Worship is helping the people he has led you to help. Like by visiting the Fatherless and the Widows to fulfill their Spiritual/physical needs. (James1:27) Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. :)
Fasting is a form of worship but in this way mentioned below.
Isa 58:5,6
5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen ? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen ? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
The Lord has blessed you with a vision because you are loved, please Worship him in Spirit and in Truth, help all who the Lord puts in your path.
John 4:20-24
4:20
Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
4:21
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh *, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
4:22
Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
4:23
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
4:24
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
We worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by visiting him through the fatherless & the widows, that is those who need the Father and those that have not met our Husbandman as well as those people who need help. Jesus would ask us, as he did Peter, "Do you love me? Feed my sheep." We will ask in the end, "when did we clothe you or feed you or visit you Lord and he will say, When you did it unto the least of these." Again, True Worship is to Worship the Lord in Spirit and in Truth.
Yeoshua Bless you!
In Christ,

Most definetely, worship is the best way for a breakthrough to be in His presence, surrounded with such love and the warmth of this light that I do not want to leave! Passed the burning incense of praise in the Holy Room, entering the Holiest of Holy, is the most secure and protective way to regenerate and cultivate my spirit towards purity. I do not pass up any moment to worship, at home, in the car, in church, especially at church. Worship is a way to lay out all my desires and concerns at the foot of the cross, in the courtyard of the tabernacle, so that the crucifixtion and cleansing of my carnal flesh could commence, so I can be revealed and nourished by the Word of God through the Holy Spirit burning on the Candlestick, and finally gain access to His Throne Room, surrounded by His glory!

Yes, this has also happened to me! I could sing songs of worship for hours! There's nothing I'd rather do.
There isn't even a word to describe the feeling of the Holy Spirit, just that it's better than anything else on this earth.
Keep Spreading the Word
&
God Bless! :)

Yes, I have had similar expereinces in worship and prayer, as many others have. When we are willing to obey God, He will bless us with new revelation that is real and alive, Rhema revelation. NEW AND LIVING. oh yes.
The first glimpse I had took me to the ground and I couldnt get up. IT was all very warm and so peaceful, that I didnt want to leave. and others in church saw me leave in the spirit and wondered when I would be back. I had been speaking in Heavenly prayer language and I just spiritually left there to be with God. WHen I came back from that, this huge tent revival meeting was almost over, and I had been standing all the time and noone bothered me, they said they could tell I was no longer there in spirit. I also had a healing that night and received new information from God that said I would begin to lay on hands and heal and deliver. I was like ME??? BUt, yes it did come within about two years and its awesome. HE continues to lead and to bless, because I am His faithful servant, living only for Jesus Christ.
Since then, God have given me other glimpses of heaven, and even as ppl are going to hell, and that is awful. God has given me prophecies and dreams that all lead to pretty much the same message. That we cannot say we are Christian, if we arent obeying Him. God forbid. WE must be fully GOds or we arent His at all. God is wanting these last day messages to be taught in such intensity of this whole thing, that we must turn to God, turn from sin, and obey God fully, or we will be lost. WE are to be like Jesus, thats what being a Christian means. Thinking like Him, living like Him, loving and forgiving like Him, and desiring only to obey the Father in all things, adn then we will overcome sin, because of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. And the more you obey, the more God will show you. IN these last few years, God has given me so many dreams and visions and prophecies to tell the world. Many hate me for it, but its ok, Many love the truth and it will set them free. I dont do it. God just uses me to point ppl to Him and His truths.
With God giving you visions like this, dont be surprized if you dont suddenly have more and more, and each growing in more intensity, vivd in color, and just glowing with an obvious message or even a warning. God is calling us into obedience and into the blessing. Sin is disobedeicen and it still leads to curse, and death and eventual hell.
Choose who you serve wisely and do it soon, for Jesus is coming soon. I say this to all who may read this. Dont listen to me. Get the Bible and see what GOD says.

I first had a vision of Jesus Christ hovering over the worship service my wife and I were attending in early 1965. It was enough of a "religious" experience for me to surrender my life to Jesus Christ and accept Him as my savior, at age 25!
Several times, in a couple of Methodist Church services lead by saved pastors (unfortunately rare in "that" denomination - the one I grew up in) and in services in several different Assemblies of God congregations, yes, I have almost felt I was in the presence of our Heavenly Father and my Lord and Savior! This was especially true when "everyone" was in "one accord", lifting hands and praising God! It was: "Joy unspeakable and full of Glory"! Hallelujah!

Amen on being touch by the Spirit...blessing for you today, fo' sure...
..one day the Lord told me to go to Revelation...
...I went right to the chapter, and wrote down what helps me visualize our homeland city....
...a city where the walls around it are made of jasper, and the city itself is of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundations of the city walls are decorated with every kind of precious stone.
There are gates, each made of a single pearl. The great street of the city is also of pure gold, like transparent glass.
There is no temple in the city, and it does not need a sun or a moon to shine on it because there is no night and many nations walk in the light...and there is much splender and glory and honor...and on no day are its gates ever shut...

In Church before I have felt so relieved while singing in choir that I actually felt like I didn't have a care in the world i felt like a infant being held in loving arms. Instead it was Gods spirit wrapping around me and comforting me. It feels amazing. I don't ever sing except in church b/c I don't like people to hear my voice but for some reason at church my voice sounds so much better and I don't care what people think. Its just amazing how strong the spirit of God is in our church.-

Whenever the saints are rejoicing during worship, be it in the regular church building, or elsewhere, it is a glimpse of what it will be like worshiping God in heaven. For heaven begins down here.

Yes, this is so wonderful an experience. I often see us praising with all of Heaven, shouting "Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain for us." It's almost as if earth and heaven are as one, for one purpose, to praise and worship the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
