God uses dream to speak to people -
Twenty
I had a dream and yes, God uses dreams to speak to His
people. Two examples were when God spoke
to Pharaoh and Nebuchadnezzar. In both
cases either Daniel or Joseph were able to interpret those dreams and God
elevated them into positions of influence.
My dream was one where God told me some of the future of what would be
happening in our world. The first thing
He showed me was the upcoming apostasy.
There is no doubt that many people are becoming apostate. Churches and denominations are being harassed
and bothered by special interest groups to change their stand on certain issues
and instead of standing up for biblical truth they are compromising and
allowing things contrary to the Bible to happen. Apostate people will follow what is
culturally accepted at the time and not stand up for, “Thus says the word of
the Lord.” Then He told me that the
great apostasy was already here and that many will allow their calling to grow
cold. Another sure sign of His coming is
the current economic situation. The
world is on the verge of economic collapse.
Recently they said the economy and America was improving but it is a
false sense of security. It has been
built on borrowed money and that one day will have to be re-paid. The reality is that this repayment will be at
the expense of our children and their children.
Any house built on a sandy foundation will fall. The economies of the west are all built on
borrowed money and they will be their undoing.
Weather patterns will again be a major story in the future. Earthquakes, super hurricanes and typhoons will
increase. Tornado’s , ice storms, floods
and unusual weather catastrophies will become more and more prevalent. All these are birth pains of the end of the
age.
The
one thing He made clear is that His coming is soon. We are too live prepared. Draw close to Him and live each moment as if
it were because the reality is that it could be. Right now as I write this short essay. Someone will take their life, a person will
die of cancer or a heart attack. Someone
just ended their life in a car accident or a work related accident. Someone just died in a senior’s home or a
young person overdosed because of substance abuse. The reality is that every moment someone just
died and went to a lost eternity. We can
change that. We have to tell, warn and
plead with people to give their lives to him.
We possess the greatest news that mankind needs. Jesus Christ is the answer for the world
today. In my dream I could see the
coming end. It will be both scary and
exciting. The tragedy is that so many
Christians know mentally that it is coming but they have not prepared their hearts
and lives according. It is time to let
go of mental assent and prepare for eternity.
It is only one breath away. Paul
tells us in Ephesians that we are redeem the time. My dream reminded me of that. By the way I have only had four dreams of this
kind in 40 years of being a Christian.
Each left me with a sense of urgency and a renewed desire to tell
others. I in turn challenge you to do
the same.
