We were praying with a friend the other day. As we did God gave one of us a couple pictures from this friend's life when he was a boy in Mexico. They were traumatic events. As he shared them we could see that he was touched deeply.
I asked him later how he felt about hearing of these images in his prayer time. He said he felt very hopeful and full of joy because it meant that God was real and that God knew about him, and that he was never alone.
There are times when we pray and our approach is to help people make the direct connection to hear from Jesus for themselves. This is important, especially so that they aren't dependent upon anyone else for their connection with Jesus. But this reminds me how important prophetic words are - the secrets of our hearts are revealed and we will worship God and declare that God is really among us (1 Corinthians 14:25).
