2 DREAMS

2 DREAMS (during the first week of May, 2015):

Before I share two dreams I had a few weeks ago, I feel I need to be clear about something. I think we've all had times where we felt somewhat uncertain about whether we've definitely heard from the Lord or whether we've simply heard something coming from ourselves. So while I'm pretty sure the dreams I'm about to share are from Him, there is still a part of me that is unsure, and for that reason I ask everyone out there that reads what follows to take these dreams to the Lord and as the Word says, 'test all things'. We should test all things anyway though, so whether I believe what I've been given is from the Lord or not, everyone should be testing what I share anyway.

The first dream I had was a short but clear one. I dreamt I was on the Sunshine Coast and in the foyer of a movie theatre there. In order to get into the movie however, I had to go through a process similar to what someone has to go through in order to get onto a plane, in that I had to put what I had on me through baggage check (to scan the contents of what I had on me) and go through a metal detector (to do the same). In my opinion, I believe this could mean that in the future in Australia, places that we once thought of as completely safe and free from danger, won't be anymore. This may be to do with terrorism or simply places becoming a lot more violent and prone to crime (like places in America where schools have to have metal detectors etc.) because of the way our society is going at the moment. The Sunshine Coast is a place my family and I always went to on family holidays, and is a place I always thought of as completely safe. I also loved to go the movie theatre there. In my opinion, I believe this dream is saying that in the future, places like the Sunshine Coast in Australia won’t be as safe as they once were, and in fact will be quite violent and dangerous. This should not shock us nowadays, as we are already seeing violence increase in Australia, even rapidly, and terrorism and its threat is now being felt in this country as well.

The second dream was highly unusual and I believe it could be either speaking about something literal that will take place or it could be metaphorical. I wouldn't be surprised if what it shows literally took place, but I don't know for sure. I dreamt I was on the Gold Coast somewhere near where I live (in Palm Beach), and was looking down towards Tweed Heads; specifically at it's beaches. All of a sudden I was shocked to see what looked to be sand tornados start forming. At first just one thin but powerful one formed, then other larger ones. One massive one also formed. They would quickly form then dissipate in different places, seemingly at random. They increased in intensity as the dream went on, and I was really shocked and startled to witness what was happening. The sand tornados started throwing people around all over the place and formed in areas that were right in the centre of large crowds on the beaches and seemed to explode people in all directions where they formed. At first the tornados just seemed like a spectacle, but then people started being thrown all over the place by them and people became shocked and terrified by what was happening. There were, however, also those that saw this as a reason to party and those same people started hooting and hollering at what was going. This really shocked and disturbed me, as those people started filming what was going on with their phones as well (this seems to show that some will find the judgments of God to be a spectacle and and entertainment and thus something to be filmed, which also seems to suggest that the judgments that are coming will be literal as well as spiritual in nature) . The sand tornados started up near where I live, and then I could see them occurring all the way along the beaches down towards Tweed Heads, and even in Tweed Heads itself. I also saw a massive sand tornado that threw a large crowd of people all over the beach.

In the Word, whirlwinds are a symbol of judgment from the Lord (take a look at this link which gives scriptures for whirlwinds in the Bible:
http://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Whirlwinds) on the wicked (the unsaved). So whether the sand tornados will be real or symbolic of judgment, if the dream above is from the Lord, it is clear that He is saying that His anger will come against the unsaved from Burleigh/Palm Beach to Tweed Heads in the future. However, the places in the dream (just mentioned) could be symbolic of Australia as a whole or at least the East Coast of Australia.  Whirlwinds in the Bible can also be symbolic of the people of God who have turned away from God and who are living like that, reaping what they sow:

Hosea 8v7:
“They have planted the wind
 and will harvest the whirlwind.
 The stalks of grain wither
 and produce nothing to eat.
 And even if there is any grain, foreigners will eat it.

Christians who continually live turned away from God, will reap the whirlwind of the consequences of their sin, and will also face other discipline from the Lord- a discipline which can be quite intense and in fact in Israel’s case in the Old Testament, because it was so severe, resulted in Christians losing their lives (New Testament- think Ananias and Sapphira).

So it seems as though this nation is going to reap what it has sown because of the wicked (unsaved), and perhaps even because of Christians who have lived in a continual state of turning away from God. A few years ago now, the Lord gave me a dream where I saw all kinds of tornados along the Coast (Gold Coast area), and some were incredibly powerful (again could be representing the Gold Coast area, the East Coast of Australia, Australia itself or the countries/coastlines of the earth). Romans 1 shows us that God’s wrath is always being revealed from Heaven, whether we perceive it to be or not. Yes He is gracious and merciful, but He is also Just and wise, and He is sovereign over all these things. No matter what is coming, the Lord will be with His people. These dreams are a good encouragement for us to continue to follow Him so that we’ll not be swept up in the judgment of the earth that is coming for the wicked, as discipline for living our lives in a rejection and of Him and His ways. It is also obviously an encouragement to pray for the unsaved, that they might know Him and be saved from any judgment that is coming.


Nahum 1:3
The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, And the LORD will by no means leave the guilty unpunished In whirlwind and storm is His way, And clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
Jeremiah 23:19
"Behold, the storm of the LORD has gone forth in wrath, Even a whirling tempest; It will swirl down on the head of the wicked.
Jeremiah 30:23
Behold, the tempest of the LORD! Wrath has gone forth, A sweeping tempest; It will burst on the head of the wicked.
Romans 1v18:
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people,…
