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,…
