Seeker, thanks for posting about your experiences, and also for answering Ashley's questions so thoughtfully and thoroughly. She and I have PM'd back and forth quite a bit about the gift of being a Seer - as I'm trying to figure out my own spiritual gifts, and this (below) and some of your other posts have really helped me start putting pieces together. This part in particular was helpful:

A seer is a person who has the ability to see with their spiritual eyes, (as opposed to using their natural eyes). They can see with their spiritual eyes that which cannot be seen and they hear with their spiritual ears that which was not said.
...
For example, using our Spiritual eyes, we can see things not available to our natural eyes.


Just to give a little background (the EXTREME Reader's Digest version...), as I mentioned above I've been able to see and hear (audibly and "in my head), and feel (presence and physical touch), etc... good and bad spirits. This has been really cool sometimes, and very scary sometimes - as I'm left open to interaction with spirits who are not good - like I talked about here: [ http://www.elliaison.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=131&am p;start=0&rid=35&S=a0f6f78c873a09ef8eba172d67030519]

I've also been "given" small visions of the future - mainly pertaining to my family and my own circumstances that were confirmed by the spirit.

As I've studied the Gospel the way I have the past several years, it seems I've been "given" information and understandings and I see things in ways I don't know how to verbalize, but I KNOW they are true.

So after a suggestion from my wise friend Ashley to pray about these things, I asked the Father how to develop these gifts and what He wants me to do with them. An interesting thing happened as I said those words - the blackness I described in my link above, started thickening and closing in outside my bedroom and then into my bedroom, and I felt a presence I did not like. I kept praying though, and it went away. I felt the spirit testify that my prayer was a good one - that I was asking the right things, and that "yes", God DID give me these gifts for a reason, but did not receive any answers yet.

But I wanted to ask two questions to see if you have some insight, since you seem to have a MUCH greater understanding than I do:

** How can I exercise and develop these gifts and the gift of Seership?

** What does one DO with a gift like this? It doesn't seem like I've accomplished anything really important with it so far, so what would someone with this kind of gift DO for the Lord?

Seeker you also said this:

A seer can translate ancient texts, but there is so much more to it...


** So do ALL Seers have that gift or is it just one of the things that would fit into the category of Seership?

Sorry if I am asking so many questions and sound so clueless - but about this - I really am! Embarrassed But I'd really like to understand these things about myself and as I said - strengthen the spiritual gifts I've been given and learn what God intends for me to do with them!

Jules
