Category: Visions (Page 36 of 42)

I am excited about today’s message.  Last week, a pitcher of filtered water was shown hovering in the air. It was as though invisible hands held the pitcher and poured water on top of a kitchen counter and directly underneath a window.  Then another vision was shown to confirm the first one.  A cupboard door opened revealing a ball of balm or ointment.

The interpretation was further confirmed this weekend in a way that only the Holy Spirit can reveal.  In the mouths of two or three witnesses, the Lord reveals a thing!  Clearly, there was no way to drink the water on the counter except that it be lapped. Without doubt this vision related to the story of Gideon and his army.

In millenia past on a mount called Gilead, GOD instructed Gideon that only men who lapped water, instead of drinking it by other means, would be selected to battle the enemy.

“But the Lord said to Gideon, “The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. Then it will be, that of whom I say to you, ‘This one shall go with you,’ the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, ‘This one shall not go with you,’ the same shall not go.”  So he brought the people down to the water. And the Lord said to Gideon, “Everyone who laps from the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall set apart by himself; likewise everyone who gets down on his knees to drink.”  And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink water.  Then the Lord said to Gideon, “By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place.”  So the people took provisions and their trumpets in their hands. And he sent away all the rest of Israel, every man to his tent, and retained those three hundred men.”  (Judges 7:3:8)

The men who knelt with their heads bowed down to drink water with their cupped hands were much too preoccupied to see or sense the enemy approaching. But those who lapped the water were able to do so because their heads were kept high enough to see who or what was coming (i.e. the window). They remained in a complete and steady state of alertness and readiness. 

The next vision speaks of the balm of Gilead. The balm was a fragrant ointment or preparation which was composed of botanicals that helped to heal cuts. But now according to the tenets of the New Covenant, this healing preparation is symbolic of the medicinal word which contains the fragrant ingredients of the complete healing plan of redemption through Jesus Christ.  A perfect plan pharmaceutically compounded by the Great Physician Himself!

Altogether the two visions symbolize that the LORD is selecting a mighty army of latter day warriors!  It is an unusual army composed of devout, faithful and alerted men and women who will battle in an inordinate way. They will be able to “see” and “discern”approaching enemies from up close and from far away. They will be armed with the knowledge of the Word, their GOD-given gifts and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. They will courageously battle but they will take no prisoners! Instead they will help them heal with the aromatic New Covenant balm that is at their disposal. Because they have been healed by it, they greatly recognize its efficacy. They are Holy-Spirit filled and inspired! They can – and will – talk the talk because they have walked the walk! They still are! And this will be their testimony! Many will believe; many more will not. Tragically, those who fail to refuse GOD’s great plan of redemption will have lost a herculean opportunity to be saved. They will remain spiritually sick and will succumb to the penalty of sin: death.

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Rom. 6:23)

Yes Prophet Jeremiah! There is balm available. Absolutely! It is available through the great Physician, Jesus Christ, and His medical entourage of witnesses and warriors! And it will help heal those who are spiritually, mentally and physically ill!  (By no small coincidence, the name Gilead means Hill of Testimony or Mount of Witness.)

“Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country: Is not the Lord in Zion? is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with strange vanities? The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved. For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment hath taken hold on me.  Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?”  (Jeremiah 8:18:22)

“And hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick; I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” (Mk.2:17)

I am hearing a word of confirmation and of accuracy on this message! Praise the LORD and thank you Jesus!

“And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” (Mat. 24:12)

Recently a vision was shown of a fire fiercely burning a large pile of wood.  I waited for a confirmation and prayerfully asked the Lord to “show me” the interpretation when immediately the following Words were spoken:  “I Will.”  I waited. Then today I was sent an email with an article, dated July 20th, revealing that 48 + Canadian Christian churches have been burnt with fire or have been vandalized and desecrated during the last two months. And there on the first page of that article was a picture of a fire burning a large pile of wood – a burnt structure of what was once a Christian church.  As the Spoken Word had so well confirmed, I was being shown the meaning of the vision.  

In another vision just before receiving the email, I saw a candle set on a candlestick.  But there was no fire – no light.  Then another vision of a large table with, again, the candle and holder.  It was positioned at the head of the table.  Once more, there was no fire, there was no light.  There was no food on the table and there were no chairs.  I was told in the Spirit that the candles related to the pile of burnt wood.

The table represents a place where food or the Word of GOD is partaken. In this case it was indicative of a religious Christian setting. The candlestick positioned at the head of the table speaks of leaders who no longer have churches to preach the Word – the light of the Word has been extinguished.  That there was no food on the table with no chairs means that the Word is no longer available and that the congregations have no place to gather.  

Although there has been public denouncement against these attacks, governmental response remains mediocre in this respect. Had these attacks been perpetrated on faiths other than Christianity, politicians would strongly speak out in protest and take immediate action.  So far, neither have these 48 + burnt and or vandalized churches received the media coverage and empathy they should have. And this is a huge problem because there will be no legal precedents put in place for future burnings and desecreation against any Christian churches, regardless of beliefs and denominations.

The destruction and desecration of these churches are deliberate attacks on Christianity and the innocent victimized Christians who attended them, This vision was shown to confirm that the love of many have grown cold and it is yet another serious marker and sign of the latter days.

“For their heart studieth (devise) destruction, and their lips talk of mischief. (lies and slanders to injure people or bring them profit) (Prov. 24:2)

“Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?” (Prov. 15:11)

It is written that GOD warns us before certain things happen.  And according to the tenets of the New Covenant, this can only happen through the operations of the Holy Spirit. I am moved to share the following lengthy message which includes two visions from 15 years ago because they are coming to pass. It was a message that was difficult to write back then and it still is now. Yet I make no apologies for the graphic nature of this post; the visions were shown as a warning to the world of impending judgement.

In this particular vision, a large gold clock appeared on a wall.  And though I could not see the time, I knew the hour was late.  Suddenly, dark swarms of pests were shown swirling in the air, on the wall and around the clock. Earthly cataclysms were also involved but were not shown. The following Words of Knowledge were spoken:  “The Revenge of Nature”.

The Revenge of Nature – Definition: The act of retaliating for wrongs of injury received; vengeance.

Nature – Definition: The phenomena of the physical world collectively, including plants, animals, the landscape, and other features and products of the earth, as opposed to humans or human creations.

After GOD created this beautiful blue planet, HE instructed Adam to care for it and the animals. Adam’s obligation or works was to maintain what GOD had harmoniously and perfectly created.  But when sin entered, mankind increasingly lost focus of this extraordinarily GOD-ordained responsibility.  And presently that which has been entrusted unto him has become so negligent and so severely abusive that nature itself is seeking “revenge”. 

The atrocities committed against GOD’s lands and the animals HE created is more than abhorring.  We have heard about the merciless outrages of human trafficking. But to remain within the scope of this message, it is noteworthy that we seldom hear about wildlife trafficking; a trade that poses great abuse, suffering and needless deaths to animals. China is at the forefront of big profit gains for endangered animals that are butchered each year.  Africa, guilty of elephant poaching and heartless slaughter provides China with the innocent animals’ ivory for their trade ornaments.  Although supposedly banned, it is an underground market that is still thriving.  Consider also the ongoing slaughter of rhinos for their horns and again sold to China for traditional chinese medicine that has no proof of efficacy.

The human immuno-deficiency virus, including Ebola, is said to have crossed over when people ate monkey meat. And SARS is believed to have originated from bats.  Clearly, the crossover of viruses from animals to humans is undeniable.  It is believed by credible sources that the heavily traded and trafficked pangolin could be the cause of the coronavirus that crossed from animal to human. Captured in Southeast Asia, India and Africa, they are again sold to China for food and their scales, once again, used for traditional chinese medicine. Significantly, they have been found in the horrific wet meat markets of Wuhan where the coronavirus is said to have made its first leap from animal to human.  The repulsive horrific details of animal abuse and trade and trafficking that happens around the world daily is exhaustibly too long to list here.

Neither the lands nor the seas have been spared from man’s wickedness and disregard of GOD’s natural laws. Consider the testing of nuclear bombs in the oceans; 50 years later, the reefs have still not fully recovered.  The damage that was inflicted on marine life and the environment was and is still critical.  Words of Knowledge were spoken about how bad that really was!   Loads of oil and gas leaking from cargo ships have furthermore killed marine wildlife. It threatens and destroys their natural habitats and contaminates the oceanic environment. Consider also the ongoing and agonizing recoiling of whales and dolphins that are butchered alive in the oceans and on Japanese docks. The coves and docks in Japan run rampant with the blood of these innocent tortured creatures. The sufferance inflicted on marine wildlife and the damage done to oceanic ecosystems caused by man is, also, too long to list here.

“Whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beast, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel.”  (Prov. 22:10)

Consider also the extensive and liberal dusting of pestilent sprays on cultivated soil and its adverse consequences on food consumption and the environment at large.  To be noted also are plant breeders who continue to cross varieties of seeds over and over until a new formula emerges that supposedly produces consistently excellent results. Regardless of consequences, man is assuming GOD’s role by attempting to continuously perfect what HE so perfectly already created. Biotechnological companies such as Montsanto specialize in creating hybridized seeds through genetic modification. Studies in this area reveal adverse effects on food consumption and human health; they also include far reaching consequences that will negatively impact future crops and generations.

“And I brought you into a plentiful land to enjoy its fruits and its good things. But when you came in, you defiled my land and made my heritage an abomination.” (Jer. 2:7)

In another vision I was shown a sterile laboratory.  Two men dressed in long, white laboratory coats were talking to each other.  One was holding a vial in his hand.  This one said to the other, “This will really (blank) them up”.  I think the “blank” word might have been “blow”.  He took the vial and placed it inside what looked like some type of silver-colored microwave.  Later I was told that this resembled an incubation container that isolates viruses.  It cannot be ascertained if these two scientists had cultivated viruses from animals or instead had engineered a biological virus to spread to an unsuspecting world.

The wickedness of man’s heart, the greed, the destruction and alteration of GOD’s creation; the needless suffering and shedding of innocent animal blood for filthy lucre is a stench that is reaching the high heavens for revenge. Still mankind does not repent of his evil deeds!  And accountability will be required from his blood-stained hands because the laws governing this earth – nature – have been violated without repentance. The pestilence that we are presently witnessing with the coronavirus, its variants, including other superbugs is the direct or indirect outcome of having defiled natural laws that were put in place for our protection!

“You shall not pollute the land in which you live, for blood pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of the one who shed it. You shall not defile the land in which you live, in the midst of which I dwell, for I the Lord dwell in the midst of the people of Israel.”  (Num. 35:33-34)

Many are now recognizing that something very unusual is going on with our planet as it heaves, groans and shakes. But is it too late?  When I was shown the first vision many years ago, the hour on the golden clock was already late. Scriptures instruct us that there will be a time of judgement. An unprecedented period of tribulation and upheaval on earth such as never was before. It is warranted to end evil and suffering; to bring the planet and mankind into harmonious alignment with GOD’s new design. Satan will be put away for a season and the Lord will implement His perfect reign on a new and regenerated earth. Then the emerging new man will coexist agreeably with GOD and nature. And the horrors of the previous old world will be instilled in his memory as a grim reminder – from generation to generation – to never again fall back into self-destructive patterns.  For the hopeful and faithful Christian Believer – the story has a good ending.  A very good ending. Evenso, come Lord Jesus!

“The earth mourns and withers; the world languishes and withers; the highest people of the earth languish. The earth lies defiled under its inhabitants; for they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore a curse devours the earth, and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt; therefore the inhabitants of the earth are scorched, and few men are left. (Is. 24:4-6) 

“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.  For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.  For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.  For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.  Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.  For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?  But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance. (Rom. 8:18-25)

“The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.” (Num. 6:24-27)

Recently I was captured by the intense color of the sun at sunset.  It appeared like a ball of fire suspended up there in the sky during the early evening hours.  Its colors were bright gold, orange and with a hint of deep red. It was stunningly beautiful.

GOD often uses the things of the world to explain truths on a higher level of understanding. And this was the case again yesterday during prayers. In a vision I was shown what appeared to be a garden. Flowers in full bloom on top of tall stems or branches were scattered here and there. But what stood prominent were the petals’ colors. They were, by no small coincidence, the same bright fiery colors as this sun.

The old tabernacle Lampstand – or Menorah – was brought to remembrance. (Jn. 14:26) This glorious and solid gold lampstand was the only means of light in the Holy Place because it was void of windows. It was composed of seven tall branches each carved with a bowl on top in the shape of an open flower. The seven open flowers contained fresh oil that temple priests ignited to illuminate the Holy Place – the fire of which was never allowed to go out (Ex. 25:24-40; Lev. 24:2)  Ages later and in the Book of Revelation, we learn that the identity of these seven branches or candlesticks were most likely seven churches whose supreme Head is the Lord Jesus Christ. (Rev. Chapter 1)

To remain within the scope of this vision and within the tenets of the New Covenant, faithful Believers are the new temples that house the oil and flame of the Holy Spirit made available to us through the Lord’s finished works. (1 Cor. 3:16-17)  It follows that the bright fiery flowers are elected and anointed vessels who have been ignited – activated – by our High Heavenly Priest and Sun of Righteousness. (Mal. 4:2) Spiritually speaking, they have been touched by the fire and face of the Sun and bear His fiery resemblance. They are illuminated by the flame of GOD’s Holy Spirit. They are Witnesses and Luminaries of righteousnes who help the Lord shine GOD’s glory; to spread HIS Word of truth, knowledge and wisdom during these latter days when darkness prevails in the world.

“Those who are wise shall shine Like the brightness of the firmament, And those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever.” (Dan.12:3)

This message calls faithful New Covenant Believers to keep the fire of their candles lit with the Word and the Holy Spirit. Never keep it hidden under a bushel of darkness – share the Light that shines on you and in you!! (Mat. 5:15) It will bless others and it will bless you.

“For God, who said, “Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.” (2 Cor.4:6)

“In His right hand He held seven stars, and out of His mouth came a sharp two-edged sword; and His face was like the sun shining in its strength.” (Rev. 1:16)

Keep the Faith always, it’s what keeps all who are His.

“Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not. (Mal 3: 16:19)

During a recent prayer relating to the gifts of the Spirit (1 Cor. 12:1-7); most specifically as they relate to the gift of prophetic visions and words of knowledge; I was shown a bright and beautiful emerald stone that reflected Light.  It was mounted in gold and set on a flat surface.

The High Priest’s ceremonial breastplate – adorned with twelve precious stones and engraved with the names of the twelve sons of Israel – was brought to remembrance.  Scriptures confirm that the emerald was secured in the first row and in the third position on this priestly garment.  According to the Jewish Midrash the stone is associated with Jacob’s third son; a priestly tribe specifically chosen to serve GOD in the temple. The Jewish Midrash and Talmud further link the emerald to wisdom, devotion and intelligence.

It dawned on me that the twelve precious stones fastened on the High Priest’s breastplate not only represented the Sons of Israel; they also pointed to twelve particular spiritual attributes and gifts.  And because the levels of the New Jerusalem will be adorned with living stones, it appears that the inhabitants of the New Jerusalem will operate according to spiritual laws that we have yet to conceive with our finite human minds:

“As you come to Him (Jesus Christ) the living stone, rejected by men but chosen and precious in God’s sight, you also like living stones are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to GOD through Jesus Christ. For it stands in Scripture: “See, I lay in Zion a stone, a chosen and precious cornerstone (Jesus Christ); and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”…(1 Pet. 2:4-6)

“And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald; The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.  (Rev. 21:18-22)

Jesus Christ our High Heavenly Priest (Heb 6, 7, 8, 9) is selecting His precious jewels and preparing His devoted Bride for heavenly citizenship in the New Jerusalem. He is already adorning the redeemed Church with gifts of the Holy Spirit for the express purpose of serving GOD, as did the priests of old in the temple. Yet the anointing and methods of administration are so much greater because of the Lord’s finished works! (Jn. 14:12) “Know you not that you are the temple and the Spirit of GOD dwells in you.” (1 Cor. 3:16)

“And He has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.” (Rev. 1:6)

Prophet Daniel long ago prophesied that knowledge would increase during these latter days!  And it is knowledge that can only be revealed through the wisdom and intelligence of the Holy Spirit. Through Him who brings to remembrance ancient mysteries and “things to come”. (Jn. 16:13)

“The earth is violently broken, the earth is split open, the earth is shaking exceedingly. The earth shall reel to and from like a drunkard and shall totter like a hut; its transgression shall be heavy upon it, and it will fall, and not rise again. It shall come to pass in that day that the Lord will punish on high the host of exalted ones (Satan, fallen angels and demon spirits), and on the earth the kings of the earth. They will be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit and will be shut up in the prison; after many days they will be punished.” (End time prophecies as proclaimed by Prophet Isaiah in 24:19-22)

A couple of days ago I was shown a large vision; that is to say, it was life size.  A man sitting on a black horse, dressed in black British garments and wearing a tricorn hat was shown. I soon discovered that he represented a town crier.  A crier is an officer appointed by a royal court or public authority to declare proclamations. Because people were illiterate, town criers were their means of communication.

Because this crier was dressed in black, it was immediately understood that he was communicating a woeful and mournful message.  I am hearing: “prophetic”. There are some on earth who have been called by the courts of heaven to carry serious and grave announcements in fulfillment of biblical prophecies. Declarations that many – most – Believers and Unbelievers would rather not hear and disregard.  But considering the gravity of our times, it behooves all to discern and to hear those who have been genuinely appointed to speak in this manner.

Symbolically, the Bible hosts a large list of criers: From the lamenting Old Testament prophets, to John the Baptist, the Apostles and most importantly, Jesus Christ! Albeit Jesus’ mission was to redeem mankind through His ultimate sacrifice on the Cross, He also declared to the people that catastrophic events would unfold in the end times (I am hearing: “days”).  That is to say, in the last days!  He declared that as it was during Noah’s days, people would carry on as though nothing woeful would ever happen; then the flood came.  But it was too late for everyone outside the ark. And tragically it will be too late again for those who do not recognize the Lord as their Saviour and His finished works on the Cross. And for those who do not genuinely repent and prepare during these last days.

“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark. And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so also will be the coming of the Son of man be.  (Mat. 24:37-39)

We are all – no one is an exception – being warned.

In a vision a couple of days’ ago, I was shown a large wide gate with black iron bars. It was wider than it was tall.  The gate was, significantly, shut.  The vision flashed and then vanished.

Related Verses:

Simon Peter (the apostle), answered and said (to Jesus), “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.  And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock (the living Rock is Christ: 2 Sam.22:2; 1 Cor.10:4) I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” (Mat. 16:16-18) 

According to Strong’s Concordance, gates are often synonymous with power.  And within the context of the above verses, it is a word notably associated with “hell’s power”. Meaningfully, it is also biblically affiliated with those who held governmental positions and who administered justice.  As I was pondering the word “gates” as disclosed in Mat.16:16-18 , the following Word of Knowledge was spoken: “opening”.

Later, as I looked at a television set with its wide black screen, it instantly became clear to me that this was one of those wide hellish gates with its black iron bars. Televisions, including cell phone and computer screens are gateways – openings – through which the powers of hell can manifest.

It is written in scripture that the Serpent persecutes the woman (the Church) and her seed (those who keep the commandments of GOD) with a flood that proceeds out of its mouth. (Rev. 12:16-17) Its goal is to drown the Church in a poisonous torrential sea of filth.  From a metaphorical perspective, it alludes to the Serpent’s tongue and mouth which is expressed through the gates of hell or venues through which it speaks. That is to say, through fallen political leaders, false religions and modern-day news media prophets, the corruption of Hollywood, accusers of the brethren and all that is dark (I am hearing the Word: “evil”.) Consequently, the innocent are deceived and the evil increase in their evilness.

It is critical that Believers remain especially vigilant during these increasing days of darkness and to carefully discern what enters into their consciousness. The Serpent is subtle and is clever on so many levels.  But GOD is omnipotent!  Through the written Word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we are armed with discernment and guidance of things to come (Jn.16:13). For the redeemed and faithful church, the gates of hell will not prevail so long as Believers abide in Christ and obey His Word. We are being warned as will be disclosed in the next post.

“Enter by the narrow gate for *wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction* , and there are many who go in by it.  Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Mat. 7:13-14)

For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower.  And bread to the eater,” (Is. 55:10)

A couple of days ago in vision I was shown snowshoes.  Immediately in another vision, I was shown a forest during nighttime; I could see the tree line and that the trees (tall) appeared very dark.  But the sun was shining bright above this darkness in a bright amber-colored sky.  Its rays could also be seen shining in between these tall dark trees.   

These visions were clearly understood.  Snowshoes are worn to prevent a walker from sinking in snow.  Significantly, snow falls over and covers everything that has become dormant or dead in winter.  Briefly said, it calls for Believers to keep walking higher up in the Spirit in order not to sink down into those worldly things that are dead; that are without life, that are lifeless!  

“I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.” (Gal. 5:16-18)

“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” (2 Cor. 3:17)

That the snow was white is noteworthy because it biblically and symbolically represents the Lord’s Righteousness and the righteous acts of His redeemed saints.  (Mal. 4:2; Rev.19:8 KJV )  To keep within the scope of this message, the righteous acts of His saints were conveyed in the second vision.  These are they who have been and who are presently being equipped to go out into the darkness of the outside world with the mission of evangelizing the nations with the life-giving Gospel of Jesus Christ. Though they must venture out on lifeless ground in this thick darkness, they will walk above it.  They will be guided around obstacles and around tall and dark trees which are symbolic of worldly, political and religious affluence. They will walk above lifeless temptations and traps by the awesome Sun of Righteousness’ guiding Light, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Jn. 8:12)

“Because of the tender mercy of our God, With which the Sunrise from on high will visit us, To shine upon those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace.”  (Lk. 1:78-79)

In summary, this is a time when the Lord is calling faithful Laborers to put on their snowshoes. To live an exemplary life of righteousness in Christ and to help spread His Word and Plan of Redemption which declares that though one’s sins are crimson red, they will be made white and pure as heaven’s snow through His finished works.

“Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool” (Isaiah 1:18) 

In brief, this vision is also a call to sow and to reap the Word so that both the sower and the reaper can benefit during this latter day harvest!

^“Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already “white” for harvest! And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. For in this the saying is true: ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have entered into their labors.”  (Jn. 4:35-38)

“….My kingdom is not of this world….” (Jesus in Jn. 18:36)

In a vision a few days ago I was shown a scene of a king sitting on a throne.  The scene was set in an era of antiquity. There were wide stairs leading to this throne fashioned in a semi-circular pattern with several men standing here and there on the king’s right and left side.  He was looking to his right side where a man dressed in a long dark garment stood.  This man was the closest to the throne and stood more prominent than the rest of the men.

^“Every man is brutish (a beast Cf. Psalm 49:12) by his own knowledge (earthly knowledge) every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.” (Jer. 10:14)

“Then the king shall do according to his own will; he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the GOD of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done.” (Dan. 11:36)

I believe that this scene symbolized in whole the Image of the Beast; an earthly kingdom that will be set up in accordance with Daniel’s prophecies. The beast is an earthly king (a person of political-religious power) who has not been enlightened by the Holy Spirit of GOD available through the Lord Jesus Christ.  The man dressed in a long dark robe standing on the king’s immediate right side symbolizes a religious figure who is in close affiliation with him.  And one that might give breath to the Image of the Beast which is the system through which he will operate.

“And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast whose deadly wound was healed.” (Rev. 13:12)

“He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.” (Rev. 13:15)

The other men surrounding this king on his left and right side symbolize men of worldly importance that appear to stand in support and service of him.   All seem to be pointing to a dark empire that is being set up in accordance with prophecies written in the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation.

The reason this vision was shown is to confirm that prophetic events will unfold and perhaps are even now being set up.  Believers are to recognize the times and to remain in the knowledge and wisdom of the Lord.  We are called to discern the influence of the beast and its image in order not to be deceived and to avoid its mark.

A Soothing Touch

A somewhat unusual vision this morning.   I was shown hands made of a cloud-like substance (spiritual hands) softly touching both sides of my cheeks.  I immediately understood that it symbolically related to the parable of being struck on the cheeks. As I specifically thought about the “cheeks”, the following Word of Knowledge was softly spoken: “Face”. It confirmed that both cheeks were involved and explains why the word “Face” was spoken.

“But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies do good to them which hate you.  Bless them that curse you and pray for them which despitefully use you.  And unto him that strikes thee on the one cheek offer also the other (the face – both cheeks)…..But love your enemies and do good and lend……and your reward shall be great and you shall be the children of the Highest for he is kind to the unthankful and to the evil. Be you therefore merciful as your father is merciful. “ (Lk. 6:27-36)

GOD Comforts

Jesus warns us about high condemnation of others.  Yet, neither is HE teaching us to be fanatically bound to the letter meaning of this commandment. This is discerned in our Lord Jesus Himself when He obviously did not want to be unfairly stricken again. (Jn.18:22-23).  But rather in the above verses, Jesus was employing an exquisite form of expression. He was conveying a rebuke for those who did the striking.   Nothing escapes GOD. All of us who belong to HIM and who are being struck have not been abandoned by HIM. A thousand times, no! Instead, HE wants us to be reassured that HE is the Avenger, and HE wants to comfort us. In this case HE sent the soothing touch of an angelic hand. And these are angels who obediently carry out GOD’S Word on our behalf:

Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.( Ps. 103:20)

For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.  You will tread on the lion and cobra; you will trample the young lion and serpent. Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him. When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.”   (Ps, 91:11-16)

What Not To Do

When we are unfairly accused, betrayed or stricken in any manner by others, we are called not to be vengeful, nor to retaliate but to carefully discern the situation in truth and with Love – it is Jesus’ way. To engage the enemy without guidance and protection can prove disastrous. Our FATHER who created all things, knows everything, every little detail of these assaults. If the attackers would understand the full impact of their accountability and consequences, they would retreat instantly and fearfully. I would like to encourage those of you who are in such situations to not respond to their perpetrators in kind. Instead, realize and be comforted by the presence of the Holy Comforter in you, GOD’S Word and guidance and know that there are angels who are commanded over you. You might not see them with your spiritual eyes, at least not yet – but be reassured that they are there! Most importantly, never forget that because of Jesus’s finished works you are a child of the Highest! And great is your reward when GOD’S Word is fulfilled in you.

Keep the Faith in Jesus Christ’s finished works. Be encouraged and stay strong! Keep on keeping on!
