Hi Friends, 

I have been praying for a long time now for the nation and the direction that our country is heading.  In the past, the Lord has given me many judgment visions.   Because of our nation’s sins, and our hedonistic culture, we have grieved the Holy Spirit.   We have angered God with our disrespect for life, our self-indulgent and corrupt ways, and our disrespect for the nation of Israel, “the apple of his eye.”  We have given the Lord lip service rather than faithfulness and honesty.

We have been reaping what we have sown:  lawlessness, chaos, violence, and every evil thing.  As Christians, we have been praying for the Lord to turn this nation around, that the fear of God would overtake the fear of man.  We have so many leaders in government, in corporations, and in universities that have compromised our national security, aligning themselves with foreign governments for money, prestige, power and influence.  We must pray without ceasing because the stakes are high.  Too many people are on the path to hell and they want to take as many people as they can with them.  It is like an airplane that has caught fire and is ready to take a nosedive.

BUT THE LORD IS FAITHFUL!

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and heal their land.”  2 Chronicles 7:14

Those words carry a beautiful promise.  God is good, he is holy and he keeps his promises!

So let us pray with the faith that He gives us, faith to believe that the hearts of our people will return to God, and in turn, He will heal our nation.  Let us pray that once again we will be a nation dedicated to God Almighty: “one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”  

We pray that the tyrannical forces at work in our nation and around the world, would be arrested, stopped in their tracks, and caught by their own devices.  We pray that those who are doing all they can to reduce the population, and dictate to the population what they can and cannot say, do, think, live and eat, will be removed from their positions of authority and influence and replaced by law abiding, God-fearing people.   Amen!

Today I want to share a few visions:

The Visions

In regards to our nation, many people have been giving us hope saying: “A red wave is coming!”  Others say, “Trump will have another term in office.”  So, I have been asking the Lord, “What is true?   What is your plan for this nation, and our people?”

I do not always trust those that “hear from the Lord,” for we are told in the word to test the spirits. But those who truly seek him will find him.  I know that when I wait upon him, he will speak to me or give me a vision.  The word declares:  

“Call to me, and I will answer you and tell you wonderful (unsearchable) things you do not know.”  Jeremiah 33:3

If you remember, the Lord wanted all the people to hear from Him, but they were afraid, so they said to Moses:

“Speak to us yourself and we will listen.  But do not have God speak to us or we will die.”  Exodus 20:19

When Jesus died on the cross, the temple curtain that concealed the Most Holy Place, was split from top to bottom so that the way to God would no longer be restricted, anyone could enter.  God made a way for us to commune with him directly.  Hallelujah!

So if you want to hear from God, dedicate yourself to knowing him, reading his word and spending time in his presence.  Jesus said:

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”  John 10:27 

I want to share a few visions that the Lord has given to me over the course of years, to show you what I believe to be true.  I have written much more on each of these in earlier posts, but I want to give you a summary of them together, to show the direction in which the Lord is taking us.

Visions of Earlier Years:

“Judgment… Mercy…Judgment…Mercy…”

There were three imortant visions of judgment against our nation in this post.  The message that the Lord was conveying was his intent to bring judgment in the form of hardship and distress, so that people would look outside themselves for help.  When we turn to God in repentance, the Lord shows his mercy towards us and forgives our sin. 

One of those visions was of a school girl holding a lunch tray.  I heard the words: “Among the well-fed will come disease.”

In another post, I shared two visions of judgment.  I saw the word: “Obadiah.”  So I picked up the Bible and went to the book of Obadiah and read.  But I didn’t see the message right away. Then the Lord showed me two sanitary pads: one with old blood, and one with fresh blood.  I heard these words thunder: “And now this!”

I read Obadiah again, and then I understood. God was angry with our nation, because we opened an old wound.  We forced Israel to give up the Gaza strip.  This was Israel’s God-given land, their inheritance.  We were taking away their blessing from God and giving it to their enemies. As we should have been expected, Israel’s enemies use the Gaza strip as a convenient location from which to attack Israel.  God’s judgment came to America in the form of hurricanes to destroy coastline. The Lord kept his promise to Abraham:

“I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you; and all the families of the earth will be blessed through you.” Genesis 12:3

In another vision of judgment, “Holding Back Wrath,” God was giving warning to our nation with a vision of a fireball. The scene was of a quiet farm house with a tree in the yard.  Suddenly a fireball came out of the sky from the left.  It suddenly stopped short of hitting the house, which represented our nation.  The warning message was “Repent, for I will strike, if you do not change your ways.”

In another vision of judgment, “A Mushroom Cloud,” I saw an enormous explosion and an emense mushroom cloud.  The vision came from an aerial or satellite view covering the United States and part of Canada.  By looking at globe that showed outline of the states, I believed that the mushroom cloud was located somewhere around Wyoming and Idaho, maybe Montana.  At the time, I thought it might be a nuclear explosion, but later, after sharing the vision with my brother who lived in the Northwest, he believed it to be an eruption from one of the world’s largest calderas, located underground in Yellowstone National Park.  When it erupts, it is expected to send so much ash into the air that even Europe will be affected.  Rather than judgment, this may be an endtime event, prepared for the Great Tribulation.

In another vision of judgment, “A Red Fighter,” I saw an angel dressed in red, kneeling on the ground. He was holding a red military jet by its wings and breathing upon it. The angel was empowering the jet and authorizing it to do the will of God.  When I looked up on the Internet to find the make and model of the jet, I found it to be a Russian MiG. The MiG may represent the current war between Russia and Ukraine. But, just yesterday I watched Putin give a speech, warning the nations of the West, that he would use nuclear power against them, if they were to challenge Russia’s right to annex territory which he considered to rightfully belong to Russia. The vision of the red fighter could also speak of an endtime conflict between Israel and Russia.

In another vision, entitled: “Present Day Judgment or End Time Events?", I saw a box with holes on its side.  Someone opened its lid and out sprang three snakes.  They flew through the air and landed coiled up in the branches of a large tree.  I heard a voice say, “These are the three temptations.”  At the base of the tree was a man sitting on the ground and looking up into the tree.  He was contemplating the three temptations.  

The scene changed.  I seemed to be looking down a long dark tube, like a telescope. The scene was at night, for the moon took up the entire background.  The tree was cut down and only a stump remained.  There was a man standing on the stump, appearing like a silowette against the backdrop of the moon. He took a step off the stump, then suddenly, I find myself followingt only a pace or two behind the man. I could only see his legs from the knees down. I followed him walking in the grass in the moonlight.  The vision ended. A scripture came to mind: 

“As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me.  Night is coming, when no one can work.”   John 9:4

I realized that this vision was very important so I prayed for ten days to learn more.  On the tenth day, I heard these words: “15 were killed on the lawn today.”  I knew that the lawn represented the White House lawn and that those who were killed were righteous people. The White House was no longer good, but evil.

When I received this vision almost twenty years ago, the idea that the government would  become evil was a terrible thought, unimaginable.  But today we see that the government is indeed capable of all kinds of evil. There is no sin uncommon to man. 

“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man.”  1 Corinthians 10:13 

In a vision prior to the 2016 election, “God’s Discipline Coming Through Trump”   I saw Trump following Putin with his fists clenched, determined to stop him or to punish him.  But because this vision was not fulfilled in Trump’s first term, I believe that there may be a second term for him.  I believe that the Lord will use Trump to rein-in Putin’s aggression.

In a vision entitled “Huis Clo” which I received around 1996-97, the Lord showed me that it would be dangerous for me to carry a Bible.  In the vision, I placed a tiny New Testament in my purse, and my larger study Bible I placed on the nightstand next to my bed.  In my lap, there were three books. The first book was entitled “Huis Clo” meaning “No Exit.” It was a book written by an existentialist, Jean Paul Sartre, who beleives that we make our lives a heaven or a hell here on earth.  What the Lord was showing me was the Tribulation, for it will hell on earth. 

I looked at the second book entitled, “Those left Behind.”  (This vision was given before the Left Behind series was published.)  On the cover of the book was a dark scene with rows and rows of short crosses. On these crossed were people who were crucified with their knees bent and their legs tucked uder them. Their bodies were charred.  In the background was a palace or castle. 

I did not see the cover of the third book.  But, I took the stack of three books and placed them in front of my Bible on the nightstand to conceal it.  So this vision is about the Great Tribulation, which I believe will happen in my lifetime.

Now to share the vsions that I received Monday earlier this week.

“TOH”

“TOH” is one of four visions that came after several hours of praying for our nation.  As many have been predicting, we may see a political “red-wave” during the midterm elections. There may be a significant pick up of seats in the House of Representatives.  But I was praying for God to bless us with a Republican controlled Senate as well. We all want our country to be led by God-fearing men and women that will provide the proper governance, to return us to being strong and healthy sovereign nation. With control of both houses, the removal of corrupt politicians and bureaucrats within the various governmental institutions would be possible.  

In my prayer time, I asked the Lord to reveal the outcome of the midterm elections, with special regards to the Senate.  The Lord gave me a  vision of three letters across the top of an I-phone screen. It read: “T O H”  I asked the Lord, “Is this my answer?”  Then I suddenly knew what the letters meant:  “Take Over the House.”  So I was disappointed.  This was not “good news,” to me.  I was hoping for the conservative party to control the Senate as well.  But God knows all things.  With control of the house, the representatives would be able to subpoena and investigate corruption.  But without control of the Senate, it is questionable as to whether they would be able to successfully impeach corrupt politicians and bureaucrats or pass any important legislation.

As a result, I can see the possibility of the current administration, remaining in control for another two years. Only God knows what further damage the administration might cause. I am concerned that if we have two more years, the patience of the American people may be pushed to the limit, and bring about the fulfillment of the vision:  “15 were killed on the lawn today.” 

If indeed this occurs, the government may take greater measures to oppress the people by calling a state of emergency, suspending civil law and declaring “martial law.”  Those that protest, will be no doubt be given the label “domestic terrorists,” and they will be treated as the 40-50 people that are, at the time of this writing, still in solitary confinement from the January 6th incident.  They are being held without trial, without counsel, without their Constitutionally guaranteed rights as citizens. Their rights to a speedy trial, and protected from cruel or unusual punishment, has been taken from them. These American citizens have been held in solitary confinement for 20 months without a trial! This is unconscionable! This is cruel and unusuable. Can you imagine not being able to speak with another human being for 20 months? Why are they denied legal counsel? When will their voices be heard? It seems that they have been forgotten. Please pray for these people to be released, and restored to their families.  

If the president suspends civil law and declares martial law, then our nation will enter into a very dark time.  We will lose our rights to assemble, to carry guns, to worship God corporately, to own and run our own businesses.  Freedom of  speech and freedom of the press will be outlawed.  Those who disagree with the government will be incarcerated.  This will I believe usher in a civil war, and perhaps the “beginning of sorrows,” as Jesus called the pre-Tribulation time.  Everything and everyone will be affected.

But of course we do not know the outcome, except what the Lord is willing to reveal.  Everything is in the Lord’s hands, so we must absolutely and earnestly pray for our nation.  We as believers must repent of our wicked ways, because it is not unbelievers that 2 Chronicles addresses, but believers:

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways then I will will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and heal their land.”  2 Chronicles 7:14

The ball is in our court!  We can change the outcome.  Visions can be warnings. If we are faithful to do what the Lord commands, perhaps we can avoid this disaster.

A Grassy Path

In this second vision, I saw  someone standing in front of me.  He directed me with his arm and open palm, saying “This way.”  He showed me a 10 - 12 foot wide grassy path that went straight about 50 yards and then turned to the right.  I saw the hint of a stream of water along the path where it turned to the right.

Because I was praying all morning for the Lord’s revelation about our nation, I believe that the Lord was comforting me with this vision showing me that even though things may seem out of control, that he will lead me through these troubled times.  

“All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”  Psalm 139:16

The path is green and grassy. It is neither groomed nor overgrown.  The tiny stream alongside the path reminded me of the 23rd Psalm:

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.  He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.  He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.  Psalm 23

The Interior of a Car

The third vision I had today showed the interior of a car. I saw food packed into various places all throughout the car’s interior.  I believe that this vision shows that people may be leaving their homes and running from one place to another to flee persecution. It may also show that with the increasing cost of living due to inflation, some may become homeless, having to live in their cars.  The food that was stored in the car shows that God will supply all that we need, even in difficult times. 

“And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19

The Lord tells us not to worry:   

“So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’  For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.  But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own.”  Matthew 6:31-34

He knows the trouble we may face, and tells us: 

“When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.”  Matthew 10:23

Whether things look rosy or troubled, Jesus remains faithful.  He is the good shepherd, so we know that he will take care of us.  Hallelujah!

An Old Pot

In this last vision, I saw the interior of a well-used, old pot. It was empty.  I heard these words: “I will not give you anything that you cannot make alone.”  I believe that the Lord is giving me words that describe simplicity.  No matter what he gives us, we can “make it,”  for we trust in God alone!

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”  Philippians 4:19

Whether we are given lack or abundance, we can “make it.”

Whether we have financial support or hardship, we can “make it.”

What did Paul say about his sufferings?

“Five times at the hands of the Jews I received 40 lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, I passed a night and a day on the deep; on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my own race, dangers from Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers at sea, dangers among false brothers; in toil and hardship, through many sleepless nights, through hunger and thirst, through frequent fastings, through cold and exposure. And apart from these things, there is the daily pressure upon me of my anxiety for all the churches.” 2 Corinthians 11:24- 28

Paul asked the Lord to release him from a physical affliction, but was told: 

“My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 

And Paul honored the Lord’s response, for he understood and could say: 

“I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong.”

2 Corinthians 12:10

As I understand this vision, I believe that the Lord will not give us any circumstance, that we will not be able to endure, or to see it through, “to make it.”  

The Lord wants us to know that suffering is part of the Christian life.  He wants us to have faith in him, knowing that he will provide, and we will endure, to the end.

“But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.”  Matthew 24:13

I know these visions have all been very serious, and they paint a picture that the American church seems to be unwilling to embrace. Somehow, because of the belief in a pre-tribulation rapture, many believe that we will not suffer, that we will depart before anything “really bad” happens. But even so, there will be a time of testing before the Tribulation that the Lord calls “The beginning of sorrows.”  

The Bible tells us that everyone will be salted with fire and that we will all undergo a testing of our faith.

In the past, I have believed in a pre-Tribulation rapture as I was taught in church. But because of personal study of scripture and the visions that the Lord has given me, I must also consider the arguments put forth by other Biblcal scolars supporting the mid-trib and post trib raptures. I have had several visions of the rapture. Only a few months ago, I had a vision of an angel making an announcement: ”It’s time to go upstairs.” And on another occassion, I heard a voice say “Finish Strong.” So regardless of our views of the rapture, we need to be ready to meet the Lord.

In the Lord’s parable of the ten virgins, the virgins represent believers. Both the wise and the foolish were expecting the bridgroom to come for them. But only five were ready. When the bridgroom came, they went into the wedding banquet and the door was shut. Those that were not ready, went to get oil for their lamps and returned expecting that the door would be opened to them. But they were not allowed in. They were left outside, and told by the bridgroom, “I never knew you.”

In Luke’s gospel, the Lord speaks about entering through the narrow door:

“Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. When once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, open to us,’ then he will answer you, ‘I do not know where you come from.’ Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’ But he will say, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of evil!’ In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but you yourselves cast out. And people will come from east and west, and from north and south, and recline at table in the kingdom of God. And behold, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.” Luke 13”24-30

So we must be ready, knowing that our faith will be tested. We want to be counted worthy.  We want to hear these words: 

“Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!”  Matthew 25:33

There is much to consider. Please take these warnings seriously, for the Lord wants none to be lost.

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9

Let us consider our ways, and repent if there is sin in our lives. Let us truly know the Lord. Spend time with him, alone. Read the word of God to understand his heart. And don’t forget the importance of meeting with other believers that will cover you in prayer, and encourage you, in your walk with him.

God bless you!  And please share this with others.
