Marita experienced a life-threatening respiratory crisis when her lungs became swollen, likely from an allergic reaction. Unable to lie on her back and without asthma medication available, she went to bed with severe breathing difficulties. She fell asleep despite barely being able to breathe fully, entering a state where her life was in danger from respiratory failure.
During the experience, Marita found herself observing her body from an out-of-body perspective. She witnessed someone performing what appeared to be CPR, pressing down on her lungs to help her breathe. Her head was being held up sideways with an arm around her neck on the side she was lying on. She felt rough pressures down her back and saw two hands pressing on her back simultaneously, describing them as thin brown hands belonging to someone wearing a light blue shirt. She recognized this helper as someone who had passed away long ago, suggesting she was being aided by a deceased person during her crisis. The rough pressure and pushing continued until she woke up, still unable to breathe properly but conscious again. She believes this intervention saved her life during the respiratory emergency. Marita reports that since this experience, she has developed enhanced psychic abilities, receiving signs about people she's about to meet and information about future events in her life and the lives of others. She sees these premonitions while asleep, and they consistently come true. She now takes medication for her asthma to prevent future episodes. --- Biblical Summary --- Biblical elements: The experience aligns with biblical accounts of divine intervention through spiritual beings, possibly an angel in the form of a familiar person. The Bible describes angels ministering to humans in times of crisis (Hebrews 1:14). The out-of-body experience supports the biblical view of humans as both body and spirit. The development of prophetic abilities afterward could parallel biblical accounts of spiritual gifts, though the context differs from scriptural examples. Unbiblical elements: The appearance of a deceased person actively helping contradicts biblical teaching that the dead do not return to intervene in earthly affairs (Luke 16:26). The development of generalized psychic abilities and fortune-telling capabilities conflicts with biblical warnings against divination and mediumship (Deuteronomy 18:10-12). While God gives prophetic gifts, the broad predictive abilities described here seem more aligned with occult practices than biblical prophecy.
