"Die to self" is something that I am still working on so I would not be able to answer because I have not fully experienced this. Someone else who has attained may be able to explain it for you.
I imagine this to be that Jesus has increased greatly in the walking dead person's life and self has greatly decreased.
You ignored my questions in my post.
Bless the Lord! Yes Heidi is a true disciple of the Lord Jesus. She understands the importance of having deep intimacy with Him, surrendering fully to His will and His ways and how every good thing flows out from this as our foundation, from genuinely abiding in Lord Jesus as a branch to the Vine and delighting in His Living Voice. Her intimate relationship with Lord Jesus is her foundation... being passionately in Love with Him... and the extension of this is a pure and beautiful love for people and walking in the miraculous. She feeds and houses and pours her love out on thousands of orphans, she heals the sick (instantly) including lots of blind and deaf people, casts out unclean Spirits and allows Lord Jesus to pour through her surrendered life in power in many other ways. All of this is why religious people despise her just as the pharisees despised Lord Jesus. Bless the Lord for your own repentance in this area and may the scales fall from the eyes of many who love religion and hate Spirit and Truth.
