Today’s Living Word – Prophecy – Visions & Dreams

4–7 minutes

God speaks prophecy to those who are awake:

When I come to you in your dreams, it is because you are willing to receive my message. I do not speak to those who mock me, nor those who deem my dreams and visions as silly or imaginary. Listen to what I say during the day and ask for me to visit you in the night. I know you are tired and I understand you may not be excited to hear or see a new revelation every night, but you can ask of me when you are ready.

Too many of you are suspicious of anything out of the ordinary. It is time to step out of your comfort zones! This is the beginning of a new era – a time of miracles, monumental changes, and wars raging in the spiritual realm. Do not be offended in those who walk in a different path than you. Do not judge what you know not, nor those things that are spiritually discerned. Come unto me as babes with a sense of wonder and awe and I will lead you to the depths of understanding in all matters that pertain to this life and the next.

There is a big surprise coming in the next few days – a good surprise for those who love me and a really bad one for the God haters. Be prepared for shock and awe! The ones who thrive in the darkness will be in shock, and you will be in awe. Love will override the wave of change to come so ride above the turmoil and garbage it stirs up, like a surfer who is not aware of all the stirring below. I will lift you up and over the forces of nature and all the monetary and political changes that are barreling toward you like a tsunami. Fear not the night visions, fear not the darkness, fear not your future for I am above all and will lift you up with me, my beloved.

Today’s Written Word

Acts 2:16,17 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: (Joel 2:28)

And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.

Dream, enypniazomai, Strong’s Greek word 1797; to dream (divinely suggested) dreams

Dream, ḥālam, Strong’s Hebrew word 2492; of dreams with prophetic meaning

Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

Daniel 10:12,13 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I (messenger angel) am come for thy words. But the prince (high ranking devil spirit ) of the kingdom of Persia withstood (rose up as a foe against) me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael (archangel), one of the chief princes (angel spirits), came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Daniel 7:13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.

A Word of Encouragement

God encourages us in this writing to be willing to receive communications from Him in dreams and night visions. God is sovereign and He can choose to speak to us in ways that are new and different than before; God is not boxed into doing things only by previous ways. Have you heard the newly-popularized statement, “Get used to different”? We also need to be aware that God works with different people differently, and we are not to judge those who are on a different path. As we come to God “as babes with a sense of wonder and awe” He promises to lead us “to the depths of understanding in all matters that pertain to this life and the next”. Wow! What an encouragement to press on in spiritual matters!

An Action Item

Our Father God certainly listed a few action items in His communication today. One is, “Listen to what I say during the day and ask for me to visit you in the night.” That’s an exciting challenge. I’ll set out paper and pen, and go to sleep earlier tonight. He also instructs us to not judge what we know not. Just because something is new to us, or not the way we’ve done something before, doesn’t mean it is wrong. Let’s be gracious enough to hear and learn something new. We need to be willing to exercise some spiritual discernment – let God show us what is true. Finally, God tells us to not fear our future. We need to determine before the future arrives that we will not get caught up in fear, but we will trust God to lift us up above troubling circumstances.

Victories and Blessings

Many blessings are rolling in by waves of abundance. One family recently paid off their mortgage, another received a large cash increase, and yet another heard of a family member who was healed by their prayers. Continue to claim all our Father has to give us, and praise Him for He is good always!

Please share some of your victories, blessings and prayer requests so others can rejoice and believe with you.
