Prior Warning To Pray & Avert Sickness

A couple who used to earlier worship with us had a beautiful girl child. They were born again believers, standing true to Jesus in their faith, involved in Bible study, prayer and worship. One night I saw a dream where I saw myself speaking to this family about spiritual matters and as I observed, they had another young infant with them now. He was in his father's hands, but had an abnormally large head, a condition medically termed hydrocephalus. The dream lingered for a while as I kept looking at the infant and then it faded.

This was a warning from the Lord to pray that the next child that would be born to this family may not have this serious illness. I informed the couple of the same and we prayed together for the matter, that nothing adverse as seen in the dream may happen when they had another child in the future.

God loves his children and cares for them and through his Holy Spirit makes known to them things that yet remain hidden in the future. Jesus said, 
However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. (John 16:13, 14)

A need for cleansing

In a dream, I saw myself standing under a running water shower and explaining to an young evangelist, how God desired that he cleansed himself of the unrighteousness in his life. The running water shower with which I was being bathed here represented the Word of God.

We may do many things for God and his kingdom, but sometimes forget to cleanse ourselves and live close to God. What matters to God is holiness, without which the Bible says, no one will see God.

A few verses regarding this matter goes in this manner.....
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it; that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. (Ephesians 5:25-27)

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. (Matthew 5:8)

Therefore, prepare your minds for action, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance, but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior; because it is written, "You shall be holy; for I am holy." (1 Peter 1:13-16)

Thiefs

In a dream  I saw some time back, I saw myself warning an young evangelist of how other Christians would use his works, especially the songs that he penned, with their names on it. When I called up the young man and told him of the dream, he told me that many people had already done that when he had published his first song. That had troubled him and he had questioned them who had done so, but he also said that, now he no longer bothered about such things, because even if they had done so, it would only take his work farther and bring glory to God.

I have experienced the same on a few occasions when I send out Christian devotionals on the web. There was a guy who used to send me back the same devotionals with his name typed underneath. It troubled me initially and I confronted him by email, but he did not seem to bother to reply and kept doing the same for a while. God must have dealt with him, for after a while he stopped. 

Anyway, we can learn a few things from Paul the Apostle who wrote regarding such things to the believers in Philippi.....Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will. The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, thinking that they add affliction to my chains; but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice. (Philippians 1:15-18)

God's divine protection

In a dream that I saw in September 2015, I am seated in a vehicle that resembles a inflated circular seat and my father is sitting next to me. Suddenly the vehicle takes off in to the air at great speed and as we rise upwards to a great height, I look down at the buildings and the other things on the ground. A strange fear grips me as we ascend and the vehicle swirls in the wind; we seem to be travelling to a far off land which resembles an island as we approach it. I fear that we will not make it to the place and perhaps I would fall down from my seat and perish before we reach our destination. But as I look to my left side, I see my father's left arm enveloping me and holding me in such a way that I would not fall. The dream ended with us landing at where we were heading.

This was another dream where God affirmed that his loving arms are always enveloping me when I pass through difficult times in my life. Will I get through/will I make it?, is often a question that arises in my heart when I go through such times, but God has been faithful every single time and His promise to never leave and never forsake stands true. In the dream, God the father was represented by my own earthly father as it has been in many other dreams that I have seen.

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms..... (Deuteronomy 33:27)

Jealousy

Even ministers of God are sometimes jealous when other ministers are blessed by God Almighty in the projects that they undertake. Once when we had released a new Christian song album, I presented a free copy to a minister of another Church, who was an acquaintance. He was friendly whenever we met and we spoke of ministry matters often.
When I gifted him the copy, he was surprised that we were in to music ministry and even more surprised when I told him that we were recording songs for more than 10 years and that this was our 10th album. When we met on a couple of occasions later, he would just say a greeting and walk away.
One night, as I slept, I had a dream wherein I was walking in a corridor and saw this minister standing in priestly robes talking to a young woman. As I approached them, he avoided looking at me and kept talking to the woman. I passed by and as I walked away I knew in my spirit that he was purposely avoiding me because of pride and jealousy in his heart for I had achieved something that he could not.
The Bible says, "Jealousy is as cruel as the grave; Its flames are flames of fire; a most vehement flame. (Song of Solomon 8:6)

New York

November 5, 2015

Saw a dream a couple of weeks back. In the dream, I was watching all the skyscrapers in New York and as I watch,  waters seemed to be rising around these skyscrapers and finally the whole city was being submerged in water. Suddenly I realize that I too am drowning in the waters, but I am happy that I would be meeting my Savior soon. But as the dream ends, I find myself in another place going about my daily business.

This was a dream that indicated a catastrophic flood coming upon the city and was shown that I may intercede that it may not happen.
When calamities like this happen, even believers are caught up in them, but praise God that he takes care of his own. A believer in Jesus Christ has an assurance though that even if he/she dies, they will be joined with the Lord in eternity. I seemed to be having that assurance in this dream, but it was still not my time to enter eternity, so I see myself in another place.

I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. (Psalm 27:13)

God is already in your future

One of my close friends, an Ordained minister of the Lord, who earlier was based in the USA had to later leave that place because of certain circumstances that developed in his life and head for Qatar and stay, work and minister there. Still later he headed for Dubai and has now settled there for work and ministry.

One night the Lord showed me a dream regarding him. In the dream, we are chatting about things in life and I ask him whether he can give me the keys to his house in a certain place in the USA. He says, "This house of mine does not have a key for entering, it has a card which has to be swiped for the door to open."

This is something from his future and God will bring it to pass, if the Lord Jesus tarries. Staying faithful to God and claiming the promise given will see it being fulfilled in God's time.

The Spirit Of God Knows Everything

A few years back, on a Sunday, as I was conducting worship, a thin tall youngster came and sat on one of the back benches in our Church in Kerala. I had not seen him before and he was very quiet all through the service; neither singing nor praying.
After preaching the sermon for the day, I prayed for specific topics that the Holy Spirit had revealed to me as I sat for prayer the night before. One of the things that I prayed for was.....You have had a fight with your uncle and you are heart broken but Jesus loves you and he grants you his peace.

After the service, as I exchanged greetings with the members of our Church, I saw the youngster standing at the back of the Church, looking here and there and then getting ready to leave. As he reached the back door, I tapped him on his shoulder and said hello. He smiled and I saw a glint of tear in his eyes. I asked him who he was and where he stayed. He seemed reluctant to answer but then poured out his story.

He stayed with his parents around 100 miles from our town. That morning, he had had a fight with his uncle who was their neighbor and had got depressed because of the harsh things that his uncle had said and boarded a bus randomly not thinking of where he was going. When the bus neared the bus stop in our town, he felt like stepping off the bus. As he did that, he heard the sound of people praising God and he thought that he would check it out and that is how he came in to the meeting.

I asked him whether he had heard me praying for a person who had had a fight with his uncle and he said "yes". As I spoke with him, I realized that he was a nominal Christian living a worldly life. I took time to explain to him that Jesus loved him and that the Holy Spirit had revealed his problem to me the night before, because God cared for him and knew what was going to happen in his life. Later, as he boarded a bus returning to his home town, he had peace in his heart, which I could tell from the joy on his face..

A seed of God's love was sown in his heart that day, which I believe the Holy Spirit would nourish till he became the Lord's.

Spiritual Warfare

Satan is unhappy when a born again person goes about proclaiming the kingdom of God. He tries various tactics to thwart what is being done by that person. I saw this in a dream sometime back. In the dream, one of my friends, points out to me several troublesome situations in my life, all occurring simultaneously. This included health problems affecting my family members, financial losses, divisions in my church and anxieties arising out of all these.

As he details these things, I reply that this is just another backlash from the enemy for all the work that I am involved in for the extension of God's kingdom on earth and an effort on the evil one's part to shake my faith.

Every born again child of God is in spiritual warfare with the enemy of their souls-the devil. Many do not realize it; some who are spiritually mature and have been believers for some time know that this is something that they have to deal with regularly.

Victory is ours provided we remain focused on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. He has said that he will never leave us nor forsake us. We are to continue steadfastly in prayer, worship and meditation of God's Word. We are safe in his hands. He has called us to be faithful witnesses of his saving grace. He will protect us from the viles of the wicked one.

God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. (1 Corinthians 1:9)

The Antichrists

I saw these dreams on successive nights in early 2015.

On the first night, in the dream, I saw a man standing amidst a crowd, denying the right of Christians to worship. He was fair to behold, of average height, stockily built with blond hair; most likely an European. Authority and power were his and he was admired by his followers. As I saw the dream, the impression came to me that he was the antichrist. The next night, I dreamt again of another man who was an Asian and he was ruthless, chasing and trying to kill those who worshiped Jesus. He uttered abuses at Christians and attacked them with weapons.

John, the Apostle, writes about antichrists...

Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. (1 John 2:18)

Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist - he denies the Father and the Son.(1 John 2:22)

....but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. (1 John 4:3)

Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. (2 John 1:7)

We infer from the above and from the books of Revelation and 2 Thessalonians, that there will be one who will be the Antichrist of the end times. At the same time, through the ages, there have been many and are now, who are antichrists and as John writes there are them who are of the spirit of antichrist.

Paul, the Apostle writes,

Finally, brothers, pray for us that the word of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you and pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith. But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen and protect you from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:1-3)

All said and done, God will take care of his own and see to it that they join him in eternity when the time comes. But we must pray.
