Vision of
January, 2000
|
After
a Thursday night church service, I got the verse Colossians 3:23 “Whatever
you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.”
All day on Friday, something “ate” at me. There seemed to be something else
in the sermon that I had missed. I
replayed the sermon all day long in my mind trying to find the missing
message. I prayed, I sought but it
wouldn’t come. I couldn’t sleep,
there was something I had missed and I had to figure out what it was. Finally at 3 am, in desperation I cried
out, “God, I have looked at everything about that sermon, I find nothing else
that I should have gotten out of it.”
Then I heard, “Remember the pastor quickly kneeling and telling you
that sometimes you need to just get on your face and pray, or your
knees?” Well, you have been doing
just that and satan has been jumping on as you are down, taking a short
ride. Sure you knock him off with
your ‘spiritual shower’ but TAKE A BATH to get rid of satan. Submerge yourself in the water of MY
word.” Several times on Wednesday
people had said that there are times when you want and need to take a bath, a
shower just isn’t the same. A perfect
peace came over me and I had my answer… time to take a spiritual bath.
As
I praised the Lord for this insight, I had a vision, I was in my prayer place
(a wheat field alone with the Lord), I was talking to Him as I always do, (my
head lying on His lap), when He raised His hand toward heaven (this is the
first time I had actually seen his hand).
Out of His hand came a vision of a man dressed in a white flowing
robe. As the figure moved toward
heaven, it became a perfect white dove.
Then two white clothed figures came from earth, going toward heaven
and meeting together about halfway up, forming the image of praying hands as
they continued up. Soon there were 4
people, then 8 people and kept multiplying, each pair uniting to form the
praying hands. Soon the whole sky was
filled with ‘praying hand figures, a beautiful radiant white with light hues
of pink, yellow, lavender, lime green and light blue as more people continued
up to heaven. It was beautiful and
then the Lord said, “Get ready, take a bath in spiritual water for I will
come soon.” I checked the clock, this
was at 4:44am on Saturday morning, I was not sleeping or dreaming, I was not
the least bit sleepy or tired. I
again praised the Lord for such a wonderful sight and very suddenly like
turning off the light in the room, I went to sleep, such a peaceful sleep
that I awoke 2 hours later fresher than if I had slept all night. On
Sunday, the sermon was about the bride getting ready for the Groom. Last night, it came to me that the bride
would want to take a bath and not a ‘quick’ shower to get ready for the
Groom. To be extra clean, relaxed and
ready for her to come into the presence of her Lord. NOTE: I do not feel that this is like the rapture people talk about but more like post--wedding march, the bride and groom walk together and then the invited guests follow. Usually the mother and father of the bride, then the groom’s parents and then they continue to multiply until the isles are full. I believe the man in the white flowing robe is the Holy Spirit that will go before the groom and his bride… The
Lord is coming and telling His people to get ready…His time is near… |
