On September 23, 2017, I dreamed that
everywhere I looked water was rising. People were in their homes or outside going
about their business as usual. People
could even see the waters rising. They
had sufficient time to move to higher ground, but they remained complacent and continued
in their normal routines and behaviors.
As
the water ascended, I was warning people to go to higher ground with me. It was like they didn’t believe me or heed
the warning or they didn’t feel the water would overcome them. I saw many people, but one family in
particular I warned that the waters were about to rush over the roof of their
home and consume them. As the water
began to flow over the roof like a waterfall, I ran for higher ground ascending
up the mountain. The people at the house
stayed, and I saw the waters begin to overflow them. I kept running to the top of the
mountain. I never saw them again.
As
I got to the top of the mountain, I looked as far as I could see. Everywhere I saw water and to my dismay, I
saw only a few people. As I sat there, I
felt subdued and reflected on what I could have done differently to get the others
to come along where God wants everyone to go; to ascend higher in relationship
with Him, to seek God’s eternal rewards instead of the worldly successes and
desires, to have eternal life forevermore.
Then I recalled a revelation God gave me several weeks ago that I am not
to be distracted by those who choose to live a life in sin once I have
ministered and shared with them about the gospel of Jesus Christ. God was very clear that there will be those
that go with you and those that choose not to go with you because they are
happier in their sinful lusts and are blinded by the enemies tactics, lies and
deceit. Their ignorance will not save
them now because God’s grace is not to be taken in vain. There are consequence for sin. It is their free will choice to make that
decision and that is not to be my burden.
God already knows those who will go and those who will fall.
Then
the Lord took me to Jeremiah 51 where Jeremiah was sharing a prophetic message about the fall of Babylon. Jeremiah was forewarning the people of eminent destruction from the Lord as a result of living foolish lives instead
of living for God. The Lord is about to
break in to end this senseless behavior, idol worshippers, sexual immorality,
and the mockery and disgrace of those who refuse God’s wisdom and
knowledge. God revealed to me that it is
a time of separating the sheep from the goats.
The sheep will be on the right side of God. The sheep are blessed by God and will have an
eternal inheritance in the Kingdom of God.
God established this divine order at the foundation of the earth. God is the same yesterday, today and
tomorrow. His word and promises of
eternal life and eternal damnation has not changed. He will carry out His plans. Those who have stored up earthly riches and
sought earthly pleasures of happiness instead of holiness, God says, “Your end
has come, the time for you to be cut off” (Jeremiah 51:13). However, there is always an opportunity to
repent and turn back to God who can then have the promises of God’s eternal life for
those that believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
There
is no one more powerful, beautiful, sovereign or mighty than God Himself. Jeremiah 51:15-16 states, “He made the earth
by His power, he founded the world by His wisdom and stretched out the heavens
by His understanding. When He thunders,
the waters in the heaven roar; He makes clouds rise from the ends of the
earth. He sends lightening with the rain
and brings out the wind from His storehouses.”
In Psalm 93: 4, we again see the power of God and his unchanging
nature. It states, “Mightier than the
thunder of the great waters, mightier than the thunder of the great waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea—the Lord on High is mighty.” Isaiah 51:15
shares that, “For I am the Lord your God, who churns up the sea so that its
waves roar—the Lord Almighty is his name.”
Psalm 42:7, tells us that “Deep calls to deep in the roar of your
waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.” Psalm 89:9 says that, “You (God) rules over
the surging sea; when its waves mount up, you still them.”

The
Lord has declared it is an appointed time to come to pass that before the peoples
waking eyes He is going to repay for all of the wrong done against God, the
earth and God’s people. God is forewarning
people that it is a time to, “Lift up a banner in the land! There is a battle
coming of mass destruction never seen before of uncomprehendible
ruination. We are going to see come to
pass where, “The sea will rise over Babylon, its roaring waves will cover
her. Her towns will be desolate, a dry
and desert land, a land where no one lives, through which not many travels. I God will punish the Bel (gods) in Babylon
and make him spew out what he has swallowed.” (Jer. 51:42).
However,
those who have remained obedient and faithful to the Lord, God has promised to,
“defend your cause and avenge you.” (Jer. 51:36). We have known that this time was coming, we
just do not know the hour, but God is giving us signs all around us. He has told us not to, “Lose heart or be
afraid” (Jer.51:46). We are to trust,
believe and continue to cling to the
cross during this time that the Lord has said, “Will surely come when I
will punish the idols of Babylon” (Jer. 51:47).
When
the Lord destroys the wicked, He has revealed that He will, “Silence her noisy
din. Waves of enemies will rage like great waters; the roar of their voices
will resound. A destroyer will capture the warriors and break their bows. For the Lord our God is a God of retribution;
he will repay in full” (Jer. 51:54-57).
I
now can understand why in the dream I was subdued and felt so sad. The warning signs are all around us and
people are not aware of what God’s word or promises say. In Luke 21:25- 28, Jesus tells about these
signs that marks the beginning of his return.
“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. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of
what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man
coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads,
because your redemption is drawing near. “
As a people, we have departed from God who is to be our first love. It grieves God deeply. It is not too late though. Before a great fall, there is always a choice
to return back to God which should be out first love always and forever.
God
has been preparing me for months now to share the urgency of the times that we
are in. God also sent a brother in
Christ, Dinky Conley, to share a message with me that he received from God. Most in the Town of Dayton would know
Dinky. Dinky is with the Town of Dayton
Police. He served years as police chief and upon retirement he has been serving
at Pence Middle School as a resource office mentoring to those students. Dinky has a huge heart for our youth and you
always see him with a smile on his face.
I know he made a significant impact on my daughter, Kendall when she
attended Pence. Dinky continues to stay
in touch with her and follow her activities supporting her.
Dinky
randomly came to visit me one morning a couple of weeks ago. He came with a heavy burden on his
heart. He also told me that he did not
want me to think he was crazy, but he had a message for me that God had given
him weeks ago. He had been wrestling if
he had truly heard right and if it was in fact me that he was supposed to give
this message to. I assured him that I
would not think he was crazy when he told me that God sent him to give me a
message. The message that God had for me
was that I was to begin to preach about
the impending end of times. Dinky had
no idea, but he came to give me affirmation for what I had already been
hearing from God. However, I had been
praying and asking God how he wanted me to share this as I was uncertain of how
God wanted me to do so. God used Dinky
to affirm what I had been hearing so that I would faithfully and obediently
walk out what God was asking of me.

I
continued to pray and ask God how to do this.
For weeks I heard nothing. Then
this morning the Lord gave me this dream to share to hopefully be an awakening
message for those who aren’t sure where they stand with God, or those who have
deliberately cut off God or those who simply may have never heard God’s word. Regardless of anyone’s circumstances or
situation, it is an urgent time in which God is calling His children back to Him. It is a time to come to the altar where God’s
arms are wide open to receive you. It
does not matter where you have been, what you have done. It only matters that you come to God NOW –
TODAY to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. The blood of Jesus will wash away all of your
sins making you pure in God’s sight.
It is not a time to hope that you are saved, but a time to know you are saved. The Kingdomof God is at hand, so repent.
