A Dream I Had Some Time Ago

A Dream I Had Some Time Ago

I then found myself on a large farm with a huge barn. There was hay everywhere. Many people were working the farm gathering the hay. I was there trying to convince a childhood friend that he could change his path, however he kept getting distracted and was afraid his commander would see him talking to me.

I was then in a field. There were many people gathered in this field. I was walking and talking with somebody, but I did not see who. We were in charge of bringing the workers together at this particular farm. Again there was hay everywhere; the hay was what we were gathering the people to harvest in.

In this field, there were groups of what appeared to be “indigenous” people. Like the benevolent form of the malevolent tribal people from the mountains. These people looked to be from different parts of the globe. They were gathering hay by themselves in groups. I looked over as to ask them to come meet us at the farm house for a meeting. 

The person I was walking with, said to me. 

“They will only come on their own terms”. These words settled in my heart. “They will only come on their own terms”.

As a large group gathered, made up of many nationalities and ethnic groups, in front of the little quaint farm house that was in this field, there was a sense of team work and purpose. It was a beautiful scene like the gathering of the saints, on a summer night.

The Lord the Keeper of Israel

Psalm 121 (AMP)

The Lord the Keeper of Israel.

 I will lift up my eyes to the hills [of Jerusalem]—

From where shall my help come?

My help comes from the Lord,

Who made heaven and earth.

He will not allow your foot to slip;

He who keeps you will not slumber.

Behold, He who keeps Israel

Will neither slumber [briefly] nor sleep [soundly].

The Lord is your keeper;

The Lord is your shade on your right hand.

The sun will not strike you by day,

Nor the moon by night.

The Lord will protect you from all evil;

He will keep your life.

8

The Lord will guard your going out and your coming in [everything that you do]

From this time forth and forever.

Psalm 129:5(NLT)

5 May all who hate Jerusalem

    be turned back in shameful defeat.

Psalm 51:18New Living Translation (NLT)

18 Look with favor on Zion and help her;

    rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.

Psalm 48:1-7 (NLT)

1 How great is the Lord,

    how deserving of praise,

in the city of our God,

    which sits on his holy mountain!

2 It is high and magnificent;

    the whole earth rejoices to see it!

Mount Zion, the holy mountain,[a]

    is the city of the great King!

3 God himself is in Jerusalem’s towers,

    revealing himself as its defender.

4 The kings of the earth joined forces

    and advanced against the city.

5 But when they saw it, they were stunned;

    they were terrified and ran away.

6 They were gripped with terror

    and writhed in pain like a woman in labor.

7 You destroyed them like the mighty ships of Tarshish

    shattered by a powerful east wind.

Psalm 102:12-17 (NLT)

12 But you, O Lord, will sit on your throne forever.

    Your fame will endure to every generation.

13 You will arise and have mercy on Jerusalem[a]—

    and now is the time to pity her,

    now is the time you promised to help.

14 For your people love every stone in her walls

    and cherish even the dust in her streets.

15 Then the nations will tremble before the Lord.

    The kings of the earth will tremble before his glory.

16 For the Lord will rebuild Jerusalem.

    He will appear in his glory.

17 He will listen to the prayers of the destitute.

    He will not reject their pleas.

For I called him alone,

And blessed him and increased him.”

The Lord Is Speaking To His People

Will The Son Of Man Find Faith On The Earth?

       


        

  

Luke 18:7-8 (KJV)

8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Luke 7:20-23 (NLT)

20 John’s two disciples found Jesus and said to him, “John the Baptist sent us to ask, ‘Are you the Messiah we’ve been expecting, or should we keep looking for someone else?’”

21 At that very time, Jesus cured many people of their diseases, illnesses, and evil spirits, and he restored sight to many who were blind. 22 Then he told John’s disciples, “Go back to John and tell him what you have seen and heard—the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, and the Good News is being preached to the poor. 23 And tell him, ‘God blesses those who do not turn away because of me

5 And because of their unbelief, he couldn’t do any miracles among them except to place his hands on a few sick people and heal them. 6 And he was amazed at their unbelief.

Mark 16:14-20 (NLT)

14 Still later he appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating together. He rebuked them for their stubborn unbelief because they refused to believe those who had seen him after he had been raised from the dead.

15 And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. 16 Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. 17 These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages.

18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them. They will be able to place their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.”

19 When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 20 And the disciples went everywhere and preached, and the Lord worked through them, confirming what they said by many miraculous signs.
