The Lord is giving us warnings. Are we going to listen?

I've had a second "tough times are ahead" dream. I want to share with you.

First, the Lord speaks to us many ways. One very scriptural way is dreams. Usually he speaks to me in my dreams about me.. you know: "I am with you and want you to walk in this ministry." or "this is what you are feeling..give it to me." that sort of dreams. Sometimes I ask him for direction, and that he would tell me what to do via a dream... and he does. After all, in these night seasons, we don't turn him off, we are totally open to him speaking to us. The world is not rushing in, it is quiet. The dreams are usually symbolic.... easily understood by the dreamer upon seeking him for the meaning. So, yes. I dream. But twice I have been given dreams now, about the times ahead. These dreams have startled me and shook me from my sleep. They have stayed with me strong. I have shared them with my pastor. Others have also shared dreams with him he tells us. God, for some reason, is giving us a preview of things ahead. For our strengthening? For our faith? A warning? That we would not be caught off guard but prepare.

The first dream I had I will summarize this way, as I have already shared it with many of you, but it's message was: Things are going to begin happening, and though far off, they will affect you here at home. It will change how we live. People will be looking for an answer. You have it and it is the Lord. You can offer a place of prayer and refuge from the trying times."

Now, for the dream I just had the other night. In the dream were two little boys digging in a (my) flower bed to plant something. One had dug the hole and the boys were playing around and taking their time planting. They, however, noticed that something was happening to the hole. It was collapsing ( a small collapse) and then a puff came from it. It was like an implosion in the center of the earth had happened and they were seeing a little puff of it. The sky turned dark. They ran away off down the road, thinking they could get away from it.

As well, also in this dream I saw a business... people.... and they were packing up things onto a plane and sending some of them off in this plane.

(In my dreams- there are usually three scenes happening - 3 being a holy number and confirmation to me it is from the Lord) so third scene: My daughter and I are at the grocery store picking up things to take to a cabin. The whole family was to be there eventually. I don't remember all the details here, but seems there was little on the shelves. We loaded our van and headed to the cabin. We get to the cabin and have a look around. Many rooms. We notice bunks for sleeping and make the comment that they are small, and that my son, being so tall, will have to sleep on the floor. We proceeded to the downstairs to have a look. It is open to the outdoors and there are many cats inside and in the yard. I shut the doors to keep them out. Then I see a piano and am excited thinking Meagan can play this for us. I go to it, and there are layers of pads, fitted, on it. I proceed to remove them to get to the piano, and discover there are no piano keys. And then I discover there are other people in this room as well... not family, but strangers. I am not afraid. Just taking notice.

Then back to the boys.... the boys had run down the road toward the woods and were hiding behind a building. They looked in the dark sky and saw a flash...then a plane.... the plane was going to crash and did and they knew it was right there back at the house where they had been. They run back to see. There was the plane on our 900 N road just North of our house. Now there are lots of people around, even camping there. And families. The boy, (me, Im in him and see what he sees) runs down the yard along the road taking in the sights at the side...he sees yards with piles of wood, like for burning in a fireplace or in a cook stove. Things, and life appear rustic. This was so very very vivid and real.

Next this boy is among the people, listening to what they are saying and talking with them. He looks up and coming from the east are men on horse back, police. He asks a gentleman, "why horses?" the man replies, "Not many cars now." Then the boy notices a man with a fox in his pocket, and he is feeding it.

Back to the business: The plane they had sent out was the one that crashed. They realize this because they have lost contact with it. They pack up, shut down computers and equipment and leave.

This is what I get from this, I'll just share briefly what I pick from it.

crashed plane: possibly symbolic of 9/11 or terrorism. That date is soon coming. Is that relevant? Very possibly.
Life is changed: hardships, not the luxuries we are used to,no longer so available.
Many animals: are they put our of their natural habitat and we are tending them?
Piano: not a gay time for the world.
The Implosion: natural or man caused? Could be either.
Business sending out the plane: not sure?? These people may be part of a network that has caused things to happen. I tend to think... people are behind what has happened.
Cabin: because this catastrophe has hit us all, We will seek places of refuge.

I am remembering the verse: "He will keep in perfect peace those whose mind is stayed on Thee."

The Lord is always in control. The time will cause awe and holy fear in some of us. I must admit, it excites me, for coming is a time that the Lord will be revealed, people brought to Him... Finally, much of what the world leans on, worships, takes delight in, rather than the Lord, will be taken away..... We will be stripped of many things and hopefully cling to all that matters. Will we be strong in such a time? Will we be the ones, becaue we Know Him, that we can direct the fearing heart to a loving God?

We, the blessed of the Lord, WILL be blessed. Not by the earthly riches and material things, but by this amazing opportunity to step into a kingdom walk and do that which we are put here for..... sharing his truth and walking in kingdom reality.

I can only wonder with such a dream, will this be soon or is this something happening far off? I don't know, but I share it with you that you would draw close to Him more than ever and be in Awe of Him who has always had a plan for us on this planet. Jesus is Lord. Is He not!

God bless.
