(October
23, 24, 2011) How do I differentiate between "Spiritual
Visions" and/or "Spiritual Dreams"? Perhaps the
question ought to be: "Does God give Spiritual Visions and/or
Spiritual Dreams"? When referring to Scripture, we have many
examples when people were given Spiritual Visions and/or Spiritual Dreams
and, therefore, in His Time, God brought answers and/or fulfillment to
complex situations in people's lives.
The
above paragraph rings true in my life. With this web page, I have
decided to share another "Spiritual Vision" that has significant
implications. My life as a Christian is extremely important to
me. As a wife and homemaker I have day-to-day obligations' and, to live my
life so that it will honor God and, yet, realizing that I have human emotions that
need not live in condemnation because "There
is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who
walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." ROMANS 8:1
When
another Spiritual Vision was given to me in the month of September 2011, (written on
October 3, 2011), I decided to wait with sharing the "Spiritual
Vision". My questions were, however: "to whom shall
I send the Vision?", "perhaps the Vision is just for me?"
Within
the last couple days, I scolded myself (so to speak). Why? When
God gives you something that is of great "Spiritual Wealth",
then, certainly, such phenomenon must be proclaimed. I thank the
Heavenly Father through Christ Jesus and His Spirit that I may share such
"Spiritual Visions"; and, I believe, those "Spiritual
Visions" are of great
"Spiritual Wealth". I trust that whoever reads the
Visions Pages will also be blessed and permit their thoughts and hearts to
be
attuned to a Heaven that awaits all those that accept the atoning work of
our Precious Lord Jesus Christ that shed His Precious Blood on the Cross
of Calvary for all mankind (JOHN 3:16).
The
recorded Spiritual Vision of September 2011 is as follows:

HABAKKUK
2:2 AND 3 STATES:
2)
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it
plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. 3) For
the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall
speak, and not lie; though it tarry, wait for it because it will
surely come, it will not tarry.
True,
Spiritual Visions are not hallucinations. Many weeks have passed
since God permitted my seeing a clear vision. Several days ago,
while taking a brief rest, and with eyes closed, I saw a butterfly.
The span of the wings seemed approximately four inches wide. The
beauty of the butterfly was absolutely gorgeous to behold.
Why? The span of the wings were a definite butterfly formation
of the approximate 4”x 4" and a pure, white color. The
beauty of the wings were white against the black background. The
white see-through wings were in a lace-type formation - absolutely
gorgeous! The butterfly appeared and disappeared many
times. The center of the butterfly had a green stripe between
the white lace-type wings.
When
seeing the Vision, I was astounded at the beauty of such a
display. (*10-24-2011
- the beauty of the lace-type white wings was a
gorgeous sight to
behold!) The
interpretation I could not comprehend at the time; however, I trusted
God that He would reveal the significance of this beautiful Vision.
Last
Wednesday (9-28-2011), while sitting in the church pew, I saw a lady
that has health issues. I spoke with her and indicated that I
had not seen her for awhile. She then shared that she and her
husband could not come to church because of car problems and that they
do not have enough money for gas. My heart felt a compassion
toward that Christian woman; and, I then took my wallet and gave her
money. I hope she will be in church next week. After
sharing conversation with her and after giving her money, the Vision
of the beautiful butterfly with its green center then reminded me that
giving her money was, perhaps, part of the butterfly Vision.
Today,
October 3, 2011, I decided to write (type) the Vision, etc. While
typing the Vision, a number of thoughts from my heart have come to me.
This morning, 11:45 a.m., etc., I re-read the above paragraphs and
realize that perhaps THE RETURN OF THE LORD may be signified by such a
Vision. While such a revelation came to me this morning, my heart was
weeping because “many
people need the Lord”!
Additional
Comments: A sentence in one of the above paragraphs states:
"(*10-24-2011
- the beauty of the lace-type white wings was a
gorgeous sight to
behold!) "
As
the butterfly in the vision appeared in the dark, I was amazed at the
beauty of the lace-type wings. Today October 24, 2011, I am
reminded that the lace-type wings may be referenced to the beauty of a white lace-type gown when a bride is ready to be married to her
groom. A bride will look forward to marry her groom and spend the
remainder of her life building a family with her groom in the Presence
of a Holy God.
An
age-old question has been stated over many years. The question
"when will Christ return?" will be answered when God tells
Jesus to rapture "the Bride, born-again believers
world-wide".
Matthew
24:35-37.
"WHEN
WILL JESUS RETURN?" LOOK TO THE SKY!

When
God gives an inspiration, I try to be obedient and record such an
inspiration. This morning, 11/12/2011, I have a number of tasks
that need to be accomplished; however, I believe it is important to be
recording whatever divine inspiration that God gives to me.
It
was on Monday morning, November 7, 2011, when I explained the 11/7/11
dream to my husband. The dream was significantly important to
me. The dream that I shared with my husband was as follows:
(11/7/2011
Dream) I sat at a table; and, across from the table sat Dr. Billy Graham.
We conversed in the dream; and, I believe that we were discussing
theological themes. What was so significant about this dream?
As
stated above, I shared the dream with my husband. That morning,
11/7/2011, after sharing the dream with my husband, I telephoned a Christian friend. The Christian friend
and I discussed several matters about an upcoming Gospel Singing
Event. I then shared the 11/7/2011 dream with her. She stated
"Did you know Billy Graham turned 92 today?" Of course I
was astonished to hear such news, etc. Wanting to be certain about the birthday of
Dr. Graham, I clicked into the internet and it was confirmed that Dr.
Billy Graham had turned 93 on that day.
Dear
Reader, "does God give spiritual dreams?" Of course, God
can give a spiritual dream to anyone.
The
following day, I briefly clicked into the TBN Program and was delighted
to hear the many adulations from the Governors of the many States
from the United States of America.
PRAISE
GOD for Dr. Billy Graham that shared for many years about the
"Redemption through Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the
world"! I believe many people will make it to Heaven because of the
Godly Vessel like Dr. Billy Graham.
Several
years ago, I had the privilege to hear the Reverend Graham when a Billy
Graham Crusade was being conducted in the Cleveland, Ohio area. At
that time, my mother, a long-time godly woman, and her Christian lady
friend had joined me in attending the Billy Graham Crusade. My
mother and the Christian lady friend have already entered the Glorious
Eternity many years ago. I believe that some day I will also see
my mother and her Christian friend in Heaven; and, then, perhaps I will
also have an opportunity to sit and talk with the Reverend Billy
Graham. Do you suppose we will discuss theological themes in
Heaven? I believe in the realm of Heaven there will be many things
to explore. However, most of all, we will want to glorify
our wonderful Saviour Jesus Christ because He paid for my and/or your
sins (JOHN 3:16) so that
we may some day enter the Glorious Heaven.
The
dream that is shared in the previous paragraphs, has also been shared
with a number of other Christian friends. Two days ago, November
10th, I was practicing Christian songs with the (*) "Singing
Seniors", and I also shared the dream with the 8-team "Singing
Seniors".
*
The "Singing Seniors" practice Christian Songs regularly (with
a person playing the accordion, two people playing the guitar, and one
person playing the mandolin). The 8-team "Singing
Seniors" will soon be featured as a special singing group in a
lovely Assembly of God Church. May God be glorified!!!
Dear
Reader: May this Web Page be a blessing to you!!
