In a vision early this morning, a door opened to reveal a man sitting on a chair that was hovering in the air. Below him were beautiful bright flowers.
The bright flowers represented a prayerful aroma: they symbolized prayers. Briefly, the man had been lifted up and seated in higher places with the fragrant help of prayers.
I encourage you to never stop praying. And to never doubt or tire of praying for someone else in need, regardless of the situation and their condition. When Believers raise their minds and hearts to our FATHER in prayer and in the name of Jesus, good things happen. We might not immediately see the results with our physical eyes but with our merciful and loving GOD, things always happen for the greatest good in accordance with HIS divine will and timing.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. (Jn. 1:1-5)

Vision
While listening to someone preach on the subject of sinners, a vision manifested. I was looking out from somewhere and into what appeared to be *outer* space. But there were no bright shining stars – only profound blackness. In the center of this expansive blackness something caught my attention. Something written in white appeared to be suspended there. Suddenly, the written Word became readable. It read: “Ungodly“! This morning I awoke to hear the Word: “Revelation”. It meant that the vision would be ‘revealed’ on two levels:
‘Outer’ Darkness: Revelation #1
The written Word was recognized as truth, righteousness and Light. It was recognized that this was a work of the Holy Spirit who always confirms GOD’S Word:
Jesus said: “But when the king (speaking of Himself) came in to see the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment. So he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?‘ And he was speechless. Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into *outer* darkness:there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth’. For many are called but few are chosen.” (Mat. 22:11-14)
“But the sons of the (worldly and the fallen) kingdom will be cast out into *outer* darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” (Mat. 8:10-12)
“Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor *of a particular sexual orientation*, nor offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. ” (1 C or. 6:9-10)
To live in unbelief, to be polluted with sin, the world and with self has tragic consequences – it creates separation from the Light which is GOD. A separation so profound and so intense that Jesus compared it to the gnashing of teeth. Dear Readers, yesterday’s vision confirms Jesus’ Word and dire warning about those who live in unconfessed sin and unbelief! There is a real place of deep blackness reserved for the Ungodly! Clearly and without doubt, the Lord is sending the world warnings and the messages are intensifying. Perhaps because something is fixing to happen soon – The Rapture? A cataclysmic disaster? A great latter day miracle? The unfolding of tribulation? Whatever the reason, the Lord is witnessing His Word as a testimony to the world. He is calling unbelievers and sinners to His Son and to repent so they can avoid this awful place. It is also a critical call to pray for lost souls; so that they will turn from sin and receive His Light while time is still a commodity. There is help available for sinners; for everyone!
(I am reminded of a vivid and colorful dream in which I saw someone who was caught in the vice-grip of addiction and the lifestyle that comes with that; someone who had been snared by the world for what appeared to be the remainder of his adult life. Yet, at the time of his passing he walked inside a beautiful blue shining star. Without doubt, he had timely made his peace with GOD. Praise the Lord! Take care not to judge another unfairly or without sound judgment; no one knows what is inside another person’s heart – only the Lord knows.)
No Stars: Revelation #2
It became apparent to me this morning why there were no bright shining stars in this outer darkness. Not only was this intense black space indicative of the fallen one’s kingdom of darkness, it symbolized that the ungodly cannot be counted as stars of the New Covenant. That is to say, they cannot be counted as heirs of a Covenant that had been established with Abraham and was later ratified by Jesus Christ. It makes sense that they will neither return on the new earth in the established lands of Israel’s new commonwealth which includes Jews and Gentiles alike. (Cf. Amos 9:11-12 and Rom 11. )
“And I will make your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven: I will give to your descendants all these lands: and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed: because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept my charge, My commandments, My statues and My laws.” (Gen. 26:3-5)
“That in blessing I will bless thee (Abraham) and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed because you have obeyed my Voice.” (Gen. 22:17-18)
“The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob (Israel); and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins. (Only available through Jesus Christ who gives Life and Light to the stars – to men. After great tribulation, Israel will eventually recognize her Messiah) (Rom. 11:26-27)
The Good News!Sin is Reversible

I greatly encourage Unbelievers and even professed Believers to introspectively take stock of themselves and to study GOD’S Holy-Spirit inspired Word. It will speak to your mind, your heart, your conscience. Do not be misled by false doctrines, misleading religious counsels and by the enticements of this material world. It is imperative that Believers have a personal and intimate relationship with the Lord during these latter days. He is the Light of the world that gives light and life to the stars – to men! He is awesome, good and merciful! Even still, time runs. And to protract a great design is to put it in jeopardy. Make haste carefully.
“And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” (1 Cor. 6:9-20)
Keep the Faith! Remain in His Light, it gives Life!
“So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.” (Rev. 17:3)
The Dragon
In a vision a couple of weeks’ ago I was shown an enlarged picture of a dark red Dragon against a black background. This was biblically recognized as the spirit of the Serpent, Satan and the Devil who made his debut in the Book of Genesis but who will be ultimately and permanently evicted from the world as recounted in the Book of Revelation. (Rev. 12:9; 20:2) It was recognized as being affiliated with a Red Beast that had been shown in a previous vision years ago. This thing was positioned across the ocean but looking towards the West. (Spoken Word of Knowledge: “Motive”. ) This means the Beast has intentions that are hidden or not obvious.
And the great dragon was cast out — that serpent of old called the Devil and Satan, who deceiveth the whole world. He was cast out onto the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (Rev. 12:9) Credit: Unsplash
‘Dragon’ic Influence
This morning in a vision, I found myself standing in front of my picture window and looking out over the neighborhood and beyond; significantly, the window points eastward. But the view had changed. All the houses had the same dark red roof tops as the color of the Dragon seen in the vision weeks before.
The glass window symbolizes looking through the lens of the Spirit. The red roof tops symbolize people whose minds are under the authority of the Dragon and the scarlet Beast – they have the ‘same mind’. It is a kingdom and governing beastly system that is already implemented in parts of the East. But the vision appeared to also be in my neighborhood and beyond; it symbolically points to beastly influence and authority in the West as well.
It’s interesting that the Dragon was shown shortly before it was publicly announced that Nancy Pelosi would visit Taiwan. A visit that is enraging China who is also emblematic of a red Dragon. And it appeals to reason that China appears to be one of the kingdom heads that forms part of to the latter-day crimson beastly system as written in the Book of Revelation. (I am noting this carefully and asking the reader to use discernment – it is never my intention to add or take away from the Book of Revelation.)
On a higher level of understanding, the color crimson is also symbolic of sin. The roof tops primarily point to those whose non-redeemed minds are not covered under the purity and righteousness (white) of the redeeming Christ. I am discerning that the dark crimson red of the Dragon counterfeits the redeeming bright crimson blood of the Lamb.
Overcoming the Dragon
Only the Lamb and those who are called, chosen and faithful will overcome the dragon’s fallen influence and kingdom authority in the latter days – be it in the East and in the West. Hence the call to repentance and to pray so that the land can be protected and healed in accordance with GOD’S latter-day purposes and plans. (2 Chr. 7:14) The decks of one’s mind must be cleaned of false mindsets and sin in order to discern and overcome “It”. In order to be guided and well instructed! In order not be double minded with the counterfeit. The mind must be under the governing authority, holiness and purity (white) of the Christ – the redeeming Lamb. The “Mind of Christ.” (1 Cor. 2:16)

“Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”(Isaiah 1:18).
“Whom God put forward (Jesus) as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness (and holiness) because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins.” (Rom. 3:25)
“Because you have made the Lord who is my refuge, even the most high, your dwelling place (righteousness and holiness under the authority of Christ Jesus who is the Head of the indwelling redeemed Church and over all ruling authority- Col. 1:18; 2:10). No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone. You shall tread uponthe lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.” (Ps. 91 )
In a vision a few days ago, I was shown in my entire field of vision familiar stars and stripes indicative of the American Flag. In the center of this, I saw a curved (bulging in the middle) cylinder imprinted with the same stars and stripes. The pattern was so identical that I had to look very closely to discern the shape.
Interpretation
After contemplating this vision, it was then understood that I was being shown a barrel in symbolic form. Barrels mostly store liquids – it follows that this barrel contains the….and I am just now hearing the Word: “Anointing.“! (I was going to write wine or oil but was directed to the correct meaning!)
Only the Lord can uncork this most holy anointing which is biblicaly symbolic of oil and the Holy Spirit. And it fits that In accordance with Scriptures, the Lord will pour out His Spirit on all flesh as a latter day witness. But in this case and for reasons known only to GOD, the United States is being singled out. It follows that those who have prepared will receive it gladly and genuinely for HIS purposes according to HIS agenda. GOD has a plan! And woe be to anyone who uses the anointing for self-aggrandizement and self- serving purposes – our Lord paid a costly debt on our behalf to make this oil available …”flow” to Believers.
Briefly noted, GOD ordained the mystery of the anointing for the healing and deliverance of HIS people. Keep praying and keep believing that the Oil Maker will soon and very soon make this holy oil flow on an unprecedented level – not only in the United States – but also in all nations during these latter days.

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.” (Joel 2:28)
Keep the Faith. There is an oil reserve made available – let it not be wasted. Isn’t it so much like our precious and good Lord to keep the best for last!
It appears that the next 3 months (August, September and October) might be monumentally meaningful in some ways.
Words of Knowledge spoken about one month ago: “7 Days” (pause) “August and September 2022”
The numbers 10 and 25 are also once again being presented; numbers that appear to point to the 10th month and the 25th day. I have seen these exact numbers in red twice in separate visions many years ago. And then again, they were shown a few weeks ago on a white clock. The big hand pointed to the number 10 (in jet black) and the little hand pointed to the number 25 (also in jet black). Seconds ‘before’ this vision, I was shown a glass vase floating in the air; it was secured decoratively at the front with a golden twine bow. A vertical label with what appeared to be Jewish writing was affixed at the front. It contained golden wheat stalks and branches bearing olives or grapes. (I am more inclined to believe they were olives.) A bow in my visions and dreams point to the Rainbow Covenant whereas the content represents a fragrant aroma: prayers. This fruitful arrangement, timely shown seconds ‘before’ the clock displayed 10:25, appear to symbolize prayers offered during the latter day harvest and possibly in preparation for a particular Jewish fall feast.

Events in the Sun and the Moon
“There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.” (Lk. 21:25)
This might or might not be relevant but during a short study recently, I discovered that there will be a partial solar eclipse on October 25th of this year – a time when the Sun will be partially obscured (leaving only a crescent shape). Significantly, this is also a time when this event coincides with a new Moon. When the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, it casts a shadow on the Sun. And only the outer part of the Moon’s visible surface moves into the dark part (the penumbra) of the Earth’s shadow. A time when both the Sun and the Moon are darkened.
Whatever these numbers point to, this ‘might’ be the year for their disclosures. *This is carefully noted because the interpretation has not yet been confirmed.* (Note: At other times, years ago, the big hand hovered between the numbers 20 and 25.)
Time is of the essence – it always is for mortal man. Regardless of the latter day time clock, not one of us is guaranteed to see even tomorrow. If you haven’t done so already, I encourage you to repent from all sins and unbelief, to accept the Lord Jesus Christ in your life as your personal Lord and Savior and follow His complete plan of salvation.
Keep the Faith, Always. If there was ever a time for all nations to be in prayer, it certainly is the case now.
Recently in a vision I was shown as being targeted in the enemy’s dark cross hairs. After prayer and seeking for understanding, the enemy was symbolically revealed in another vision to be in the shape of a man silhouetted in the most profound blackness and against an ominous dark and eerie red background. (The Word “monster” is being spoken.) Praise GOD for the gift of discernment! The visions caused me to be alerted but not fearful. Since then I have been praying for guidance and protection. My prayers were answered yesterday when I was awakened from sleep to hear “I Am Here”. They were powerful, affirming and yet calm and soothing words spoken from my immediate right side and close to my head. I had the strongest impression of someone standing there and with that I immediately fell back into a deep comfortable sleep. In real life this area displays my bedroom lamp, a white candle in a silver candlestick with a crystal heart, one of many Bibles and my keys – all significant in meaning.
‘I AM’s Identity
The Voice on my right side belonged to none other than the Lord Jesus Christ who identified Himself 7 times in the Book of John as being the great “I AM”. (Jn. 6:35, 41, 48, 51; Jn. 8:12; Jn 10:7,9; Jn. 10, 11, 14; Jn 11:25; Jn 14:6 and Jn 15: 1, 5) In brief, He is the great I AM who existed before all things were created. (Jn. 8:48). I AM is: the Bread of Life; the Light of the World; the Door; the Great Shepherd; the Resurrection of Life; the Way, the Truth and the true Vine. And, importantly, One whose Voice is recognized by His Sheep:
“I amthe good shepherd..….My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (Jn 10:11-28)

The ‘Right Hand’ of Power
I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.” (Ps. 16:8)
In Psalm 110, King David further describes the FATHER’S Son, our Lord, as being positioned to HIS right side It is an authoritative and forceful position and Psalm that describes the Lord’s sovereign empowerment over all nations (and the heavens – Mat. 28:18). It further describes Him as striking adversarial kings during His day of wrath. One whom no one else on earth and in the fallen realms of the spirit should ever want to confront in this particular warring role and capacity. And praise GOD, only heaven’s King and Lord is empowered to destroy that monster (the serpent, the dragon and leviathan) whose spirit of darkness expresses itself into political, economic and religious rulers who subject their fallen influences on the faithful. (Is. 51:9, Ez. 29:3, Ps. 74:13) In brief, I had been shown in dark symbolic form the devil. But praise GOD and thank you Jesus Christ for your guardianship, presence and omnipotent intervention.
Remain Watchful
Faithful Christians are not immune to satanic attacks; especially during this time in history when the monster’s spirit and legions are imposing their dark influences on an individual and global level. Especially targeted are genuine souls who have been called in service to the Lord. But GOD our FATHER sees it all! And in the midst of this apostasy, the great Shepherd protects and guides His flock – He makes His Voice known. Praise GOD! HE does not leave us defenseless! HE has, furthermore, gifted us with the Holy Spirit through HIS Son and left us HIS Word so that we can keep our candles of discernment and righteousness lit. We are called to be fortified in HIS knowledge (keys) and to remain in the Light (truth) of Holy Writ (Lamp/Bible). (Ps. 119:105) And because these days are taxing Believers in so many ways and on so many levels, it is critically essential that we remain prayerfully connected to the loving heart of GOD (the crystal heart). Being ever loving, HE is reminding us that the enemy cannot pluck us out of the great Shepherd’s mighty Hand – he cannot overcome an overcomer!
In brief, the vision is confirming events that are taking shape to happen and which coincides with the gathering together with the Lord in the air (1 Thess. 4:16-17). We are getting imminently close to unfolding prophecies. Until then, we are called to be watchful and to occupy but never shaken in mind nor troubled but to be found resting in the Lord. He’s got this!
“Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you,not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and **the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition** who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” (2 Thess. 2:1-5)
“……lo, I amwith you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” (Mat. 28;20)

The following message – posted to a different forum in 2017 – was brought to my attention recently. It confirmed the catastrophic destruction that damaged western parts of British Columbia a few months ago – severing Vancouver from the rest of Canada. GOD is so good and merciful. He wants His people prepared for what will take place – even mitigating and perhaps stopping catastrophic events from occurring if people would repent, humble themselves and pray. Despite all the destruction that British Columbia suffered, comparatively and miraculously very few lives were lost.
The Message
Visions of California and Parts of British Columbia (Posted February 15, 2017)
I asked in prayer today if the Lord had a vision and message to share for the benefit of His church and for His glory. Suddenly, America was shown as a map. The emphasis was on the west coast. Small white bands were displayed coming from the west, from the ocean, entering the west coast. There were also darker spots or bands shown on the west coast. End of Vision.
When I asked what the vision was about, the following Word was spoken: PLIGHT.
PLIGHT An unfortunate, difficult, dangerous or precarious condition and situation.
Related Verse:
‘If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.‘ (2 Chr. 7:14)
If moved, pray for the people, that they will earnestly turn to the Lord, pray for the land that is California and British Columbia. There are dark spots in that State and Province but nothing that GOD cannot rectify and heal. The vision was shown for nothing else but to let the people know that there is: hope, salvation, redemption, sanctification, restoration and complete healing and protection for His people. But only if they will receive HIM. ”
Vancouver Now Completely Severed From the Rest of Canada- link
GOD our loving FATHER is giving us so many signs of the days in which we live. HE does not want anyone to perish – HE wants all mankind to have everlasting life through His Son Jesus Christ (Jn. 3:16). If you haven’t done so already, I invite you to turn away from all sins, accept Jesus Christ into your life as your Lord and personal Savior and follow His complete plan of salvation. It will bless you eternally.
I am hearing an awesome word of confirmation for having posted this message. Praise GOD and thank you Lord Jesus Christ, precious Son of GOD! For believers it is an utmost honor to serve the living GOD. Praise GOD!
“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a markin their *right hand*, or *in their foreheads* And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” (Rev. 13:15-18)
Videos and the Visions
Two videos were sent to me early this morning (links included) that instantly reminded me of visions from many years ago when I resided in the United States. One of them displayed two pills on my bedroom table and beside my lamp. One was red and the other was blue. Another vision followed in which I saw a man with an electronic port implanted at the back of his skull. He was revealingly wearing a T-shirt imprinted at the front with a red star having five points. In another related vision, I was shown a large invisible-like transcript page hovering in the air with 0’s and 1’s printed in different sequences from top to bottom.
God Uses the Foolish Things of the World

It is written that GOD uses the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise and those things which are mighty. And it was clearly understood that the movie ‘The Matrix’ was being used for this purpose. The movie’s plot centers around a dystopian world in which humans are trapped inside a simulated reality called ‘The Matrix.’ It is a world which machines have created and in which humans are used as energy sources to advance a fallen kingdom. It would be years later that I surprisingly discovered that the transcript with the 0’s and the 1’s are binary codes used for computer programming. Altogether the visions were painting a grim and dysfunctional reality of a futuristic humanity bearing the imprint of the ‘Mark of the Beast.’ And my lamp was shedding light on this truth. Taking the blue pill conveyed the illusion of remaining in a world comfortably trapped in the sinful allurements of the satanic matrix. Taking the red pill conveyed understanding and escaping the filtered reality of a strange new world that would be programmed by Artificial Intelligence. The Bible teaches that GOD’S people perish for lack of knowledge and that HE will reject those who reject life-saving knowledge. (Hosea 4:6) Even still, I was told I had a choice – we all have free will and we all have choices. Which pill will we choose?
A Biblical and Neuroscientific Perspective

The man in the vision, as was the case in the movie, symbolized one who is influenced by Satan the serpent and deceiver as depicted by the five-point star – the pentagram. The electronic port implanted at the base of his skull is revealing as this is the area known as the “reptilian brain”. An area that according to studies and an article written in The Journal of Neuroscience dated January 15, 2001, has significant influence on areas of the prefrontal brain (the **forehead** ) via glandular thalamus activity. “Our observations indicate that the cerebellum influences several areas of prefrontal cortex via the thalamus.” “In fact, the regions of the thalamus (located in the forebrain) that receive cerebellar input (located at the base of the skull) are now recognized as a diverse group that innervates many motor and non motor areas of the cerebral cortex.”
In brief, the port symbolized the Serpent’s foreign influence on man’s mind. And holy men who wrote under inspiration of the Holy Spirit – who might have been hard pressed to interpret what they saw thousands of years into the future – amazingly and prophetically were shown this reality in ways that we are beginning to understand better today. As was the case then and in the movie, there is a small minority who is presently sounding the alarm and warning others.
Humanity Transformed by Technology
Credit: Sebastien @ Unsplash
Scientists of a particular intelligence are set to hack the human genome – the technology is already here. And Science is set to hijack mankind’s minds, alter his cognitive performance and affect his behavior and motor skills. Ultimately, it will hard wire man into the image of the Beast fit to populate its kingdoms through artificial intelligence, trans-humanism and all forms of sinful and immoral behaviors that militate against GOD’S natural and moral laws. I am reminded that there are powerful men in the book of Revelation who do not have kingdoms but who will receive authority as kings from the Beast. (Rev.17:12) That Satan’s plan of deception will take place, not only through the sinful nature, but also neurally through the mechanism of fallen technology certainly fits the scriptural bill! Indeed, Satan will attempt to establish Himself as GOD and influence multitudes who will fall under his influence:
God Also Has a Plan!
Prophet Daniel and Apostle John who foresaw the beastly kingdom also conveyed hope and victory for the future of humanity on a new earth. GOD has a plan as explained in the link: ‘Sovereignty.’ And the serpent’s elitist kingdoms will, in accordance with GOD’S timetable, be shattered to pieces by the mighty King of Kings and Lord of all Lords!
“And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.” (Daniel)
Keep the Faith, continue to abide in Christ and His Word. Peacefully seek GOD’S kingdom and His righteousness, through His Son Jesus Christ, to escape the sinful nature and avoid the coming deceptions. It is never too late for anyone who comes to the Lord of mercy in repentance and until that time when He finally declares that enough is enough!
A few days ago after having prayerfully said the words: “Peace and Tranquility“, I was instantaneously shown a little child holding between both of her hands a bright green leaf.
“And (Jesus) said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” (Mat. 18:3)
Genuine peace – the kind that surpasses understanding – and tranquility is the work of the Holy Spirit made available to converted Believers through Jesus’ finished works and complete plan of salvation. By analogy, the vision further conveyed that it is by becoming like a trusting child that our FATHER gives us the healing leaves from the Tree of Life. A Tree that is fiercely protected in GOD’S Kingdom but made available to HIS children on earth when they obediently return to HIM with simple faith and belief. Having been justified by (child-like) faith, we freely receive the Peace of GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ.
“Be still (relax) and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, “I will be exalted in the earth! (Ps. 46:10)
“Thy Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven….”
Keep the Faith dear reader. And pursue ‘peace’ and ‘holiness’ without which no one will experience the spiritual Kingdom nor see GOD. (Heb. 12:14)
A few days ago I was awakened again in the very early morning hours to hear the following Words of Knowledge spoken to a woman who had rags removed from her: “You Have No Rags”.
“But we are all as an unclean thing (all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of GOD) and all our righteousness are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” (Is. 64:6)
According to Strongs #899, rags in this context, means a covering, clothing, treachery, pillage.
The Woman here represents Believers in the Church Body who have been redeemed. The fact that rags were removed from Her illustrates the opposite of filthiness, treachery and pillage. Instead, the penitent Woman has been re-clothed with a clean covering or robe. That is to say, Christ’s righteousness and holiness; the whiteness of His glory and splendor. Instead of filthiness – cleanliness. Instead of treachery – faithfulness and loyalty. And instead of pillage – divinely-inspired acts of creating, constructing and growing in the Holy Spirit! (Re. 19:8) It most importantly represents the fine linen of His saints and is the formal attire required at the marriage supper of the Lamb. (Rev. 19:7-9) It also means that as Trees of Righteousness, redeemed saints are no longer weighed down with fading worldly leaves, as did our ancestral parents who lost privileges to the Tree of Life subsequent to the fall. (Gen. 3:7) Instead these saints have access to Christ’s healing leaves and have become adorned with the same! (Ps. 1:1-3 Cf. Rev. 22:2) And all this made possible through the living Lamb at the Cross of Calvary.
Jesus’ covering for the Church Body on earth was symbolically represented in His seamless robe. ‘Seamless’ because it represented no division – only unity of a Body that would one day be authoritatively unified by Him in spirit, truth, justice and mercy until a specified time known only to Him. Since then, the devil has had his day in the field by treacherously pillaging the Church and many have fallen under his influence – but only for a time:
“Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece. They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says: “They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing “they cast lots.” (Jn.19:22-24)
So presently sits a divided and weakened church at the four corners of the world. The heads (authority) are sick and the bodies (the congregation) are sick. It is painful to see so many in leadership positions and in the church body bashing and accusing each other – did the Lord not instruct that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of GOD? No one knows who has been redeemed. In your over-zealousness be careful not to touch His anointed nor those whom the Lord is scoping to anoint but always minister and reprove in truth and righteousness. It vexes the spirit to hear the untruths and mixtures taught in a church that, in its attempt to be all things to everyone, has diluted and maligned the teachings of Jesus Christ’s salvation. But the Lord always reserves a remnant who does not care for popularity nor to follow the herd. They are Lamb-centered and the living Word is active in their hearts. Watch for these ones. Some are here preparing whereas others are already prepared in white. Some for the marriage supper of the Lamb and some for the Tribulation. They will be imbued with the gold, the oil, of heaven and they will have gone, as did Joshua, from rags to glowing riches! (1 Pet. 2:9 Cf. Rev. 1:6)
“Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him. And the Lord said to Satan, “The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?” Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel. Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “Take away the filthy garments from him.” And to him He said, “See, I have removed your iniquity from you, and *I will clothe you with rich robes.* (Not just any angel in heaven – it represents the glorified body of Christ and the only One empowered to remove man’s iniquity and clothe him in clean rich white raiment!). (Zech. 3:1-4)
“The angel of the LORD gave this charge to Joshua: “This is what the LORD Almighty says: `If you will walk in my ways and keep my requirements, then you will govern my house and have charge of my courts, and I will give you a place among these standing here.”`Listen, O high priest Joshua and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come: I am going to bring my servant, the ‘Branch’.” (Zech. 3:6-9)
