This has been weighing on my heart and my mind lately. I haven't found the words to post yet, even though I keep trying. I drove through an open vision again on Monday evening as I was going to pick Leah up from her grams. I haven't seen something like this since that time I was in Uniontown and the black rolling smog was crawling through the streets. As I was driving past the ball field into town suddenly everything got really dark.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 - This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
Matthew 24:36 - But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
It was almost as if the veil of the current world was lifted away and what I was seeing was the same land decades in the future. Or so it seemed. The houses looked abandoned. Windows were broken, doors were off their frames. The siding on houses was faded to be almost colorless. As my eyes met the front lawns, I saw debris scattered all over the place. As if every house was emptied out and ransacked. Some had been burned, I could smell that smell, where wood 2x6's were charred to black and then rained on. Roofs were caving in. I kept looking for signs of life and I couldn't find any. On the side of the road there was an old refrigerator that was laying there open. Dogs covered in mange ran the streets looking for food. As I turned the corner to another road I began to see bodies. No life, just bodies.
They were laying in their yards out along the road as if dragged out of their homes and murdered. Some had been set fire. I could smell the leftover burning flesh. It was not something I wanted to experience and pray I never have to again. They were all decayed, this was not something that had happened recently. It was like I was driving through a post apocalyptic scene in a movie. There was not one house that stood in a condition that was well. There was no one alive anywhere to be found. Only the smoldering ashes that once contained the memories of this short life we have to live.
Revelation 17:8-10 - The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
What would you do? If you woke up tomorrow and your children were gone? If you called to reach your friends and some picked up and others seemed to have vanished into thin air. How would you handle being left behind after the rapture? Can you handle the 7 year tribulation? Can you handle the possibility of Heaven and Hell being real?
Daniel 12:1-13 - And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation [even] to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
Habakkuk 2:2-3 ESV
The Righteous Shall Live by His Faith
2 And the Lord answered me:
“Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it.
3 For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.
There are times when I can't handle the magnitude of what I see, hear, or smell. There are times when I feel like this is all too much for one person to convey to this world. That people will think I am crazy, annoying, or out of my mind. I feel like I am constantly overwhelmed in my senses and emotions. Yet, for some reason I can't just stop. I can't go back to who I was, and I refuse to remain stagnant when we may only have less than 2 decades on this earth to share the TRUTH.
Numbers 12:6 - And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.
Acts 18:9 - Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace
