Understanding Supernatural Encounters
10-Lesson Class with Dr. James W. Goll
The Spirit of God is awakening the Bride of Christ across the globe to fervently send forth a passionate plea, “Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus!”
But before He comes “for” you in His great second coming, He is first coming “to” you with His manifested presence and glory realm.

Ultimately, God not only wants to come upon us, He wants to dwell among us.

In recent years the Holy Spirit has been poured out in power upon many groups of people:
  • Christians who previously believed that the gifts of the Spirit have ceased
  • ​Evangelicals who are experiencing the God of Heaven drawing near
  • ​Believers in liturgical churches who are experiencing the “fire of God!”
  • ​Pentecostals who are rediscovering the power and conviction of His presence
  • ​Charismatics who are noting that yesterday’s filling is not good enough for today
  • ​Unchurched and unreached people groups around the world who are coming to Christ through personal visitations of God’s presence and power!

The veil between heaven and earth is growing thin with increased supernatural activity and demonstration of God’s manifest power. Like John on the Isle of Patmos, God is extending an open invitation, “Come up here, come up higher” to all who will heed His call.

There are keys to the supernatural which develop your faith for encounters with God while also giving you lessons for wisely stewarding His manifest presence.

God’s presence is being unleashed globally in an unprecedented manner. It is vital for you to be grounded in the Word, the Will and the Ways of God.

Like the wise steward in Matthew 13:52, James Goll brings forth “treasures of his storehouse, both new and old,” to give you a firm foundation from which to go higher into the revelatory realms of God’s presence and power.

You were created for God encounters!

Through grounded scriptural teaching, lessons from church history, modern testimony, and personal experience, this class will help you welcome the supernatural and cultivate a lifestyle of God Encounters like never before.
In this class, you will learn to:
  • Position yourself to experience the supernatural realms of God
  • Biblically define God encounters and heavenly realms
  • Access and recognize different kinds of God encounters: Angelic encounters, Visitation encounters, Spiritual Warfare encounters, Intercessory encounters and Dream encounters
  • ​Understand and interpret prophetic acts and manifestations
  • ​Apply boundaries and safeguards to avoid deception and remain in the pure downflow of God’s anointing and presence
  • ​Keep your gaze fixed on Jesus through the Fear of the Lord and Clarity of Purpose
  • ​Live your everyday life with an increased awareness of God’s abiding presence and glory

Understanding Supernatural Encounters.

Section One: Understanding the Anointing
Lesson 1: The Supernatural Anointing
The anointing is the presence and the power of God made manifest. This lesson lays a foundation for understanding the anointing—how it comes, why it comes, and how you can receive, steward, and increase in this supernatural virtue of the Holy Spirit. You will learn the three major keys to the anointing that are both grounded in scripture and illustrated with vivid testimonies and examples.

Lesson 2: Cooperating with the Anointing
What does it mean to yield to the Spirit? How does the anointing manifest in the physical realm? Can you really “go for the double” portion increase in your anointing? Looking through the lens of Scripture, Church history, revivalists, and years of personal encounters, this lesson dives into these questions as well as the phenomenon of “Falling in the Spirit” and being “Overwhelmed by the Glory” when the Spirit comes in power.

Lesson 3: The Deception of the Anointing
Get ready for one of the most challenging and wisdom-filled lessons you may ever encounter on the anointing. The gifts and callings of God are irrevocable, even when the receiver has gone off the rails. Looking at the life of Samson and drawing on the wisdom God imparted through a series of supernatural dreams, this lesson will give you tell-tale warnings of deception, guardrails to avoid mishandling the anointing, hope of restoration from past mistakes, and more.

Section Two: Understanding God Encounters
Lesson 4: The Diversity of Supernatural Encounters
This lesson gives an overview to the vast diversity of supernatural encounters described in Scripture, Hebraic and Christian traditions, and contemporary testimony. Definition with examples is given for Trances and Visitations, Visions and Dreams, Realms of Spiritual Warfare, Angelic Encounters, Prayer and Intercessory Encounters, and more. This session will stir your faith and make you hungry for more of the Holy Spirit.

Lesson 5: Understanding and Interpreting Prophetic Actions
Frequently overlooked, and even more frequently misunderstood, this lesson examines the physical gestures and prophetic acts that often accompany moves of the Spirit. Why do they happen? What is God saying or doing when these physical behaviors occur? How do we respond when manifestations break out? What is the purpose of prophetic acts? Again, referencing numerous biblical examples as well as church history, this lesson will give you understanding that will help you interpret and partner with the Holy Spirit’s demonstrations when they come.
Lesson 6: Keys to Unlocking Supernatural Encounters
Little keys often open big doors! What are the little keys—both spiritual and natural—that will unlock new and higher realms of supernatural encounters? What hindrances need to be identified and removed to open up the heavens over your life? Through the example of Elisha’s exchange with the widow in 2 Kings 4, this lesson will reveal nine keys to step into a new realm of the supernatural. Expect the Holy Spirit to impart even more as you sit under the anointing of this revelatory lesson.
Understanding and Interpreting Prophetic Actions
Lesson 7: Coming Up Higher: Your Invitation to God Encounters
Revelation 4:1 invites you to, “Come up here, come up higher.” In the realm of supernatural God encounters, the Holy Spirit is calling you to know Him in ways you have not known before. We are in days where God is raising up His Daniels—it is the Day of the Saints, the Joining of the Generations, and the Hope Solutionists arising. Learn about the supernatural dimensions that include but go beyond the gifts of the Spirit. Topics will include Divine Intelligence and the fulness of the seven-fold Spirit of God.
Section Three: Understanding Wisdom Ways
Lesson 8: Handling Complex Supernatural Experiences
This intricate message mingles encouragement to trust the Holy Spirit with practical warning signals to be aware of in complex situations. Experience is a good teacher! Drawing on years of navigating in this realm, James will address the following dynamics in this lesson: Approaching Heavenly Realms, Legal and Illegal Access, Visitations: Actual versus Symbolic Representation, the Great Cloud of Witnesses, and more. 
Lesson 9: Wisdom Boundaries and Safeguards for Your Journey
Lesson nine continues to build a sure foundation, imparting needed wisdom boundaries and safeguards for your life’s journey. This is not just about having an effective gift-based ministry, it’s about having an effective life! Topics covered in this lesson are: Insecurity and Fracture unto Wholeness, Warning of Familiar Spirits and Fantasy, Lone Rangers to Alignment, and Moving from Teaching to Fathering.

Lesson 10: The Goal of Supernatural Encounters: Seeing Jesus
From start to finish the goal of Supernatural Encounters rests on one thing—revealing Jesus. That’s what ultimately matters! It is the compass point for everything else you do and experience in the supernatural realm. This lesson will focus on The Fear of the Lord, Clarity of Purpose, and Seeing Jesus Only. Drawing on the three-cord strand of truth—Scripture, Jewish and Church history, and contemporary experience, James will tie together your understanding of supernatural encounters by focusing you on the goal of all things: the Testimony of Jesus! Get ready. It’s going to be brilliant!
