The Dream
64
Introduction
First I want to state that I am not a prophet nor a preacher. I am merely a child of God who wants to draw closer to God and do what He would have me to do. I play bass in a group named Judah. This is what I am called to do.
A few months ago I had a dream. The dream was prophetic I believe. It wasn't a dream showing disasters coming to the US or any other nation of the world. it wasn't about impending disaster of any kind. Lately I have been reading about an urgency in the body of Christ and this dream goes along with that urgency.
Cry out to Jesus
The Dream
In the dream I was at a hospital waiting to be taken up to an operating room. I am not sure what the exact surgery was going to be but it had something to do with my heart. I take it to mean that I was there or a heart transplant but I could be wrong about that. While I was waiting to be taken to the OR, I decided I would go ahead and work while Iwas waiting. I walked outside and hitched a ride with some people I knew. They brought me back to where I live and let me out at a small store that was there in my dream, but actually burned a few years ago. From there I was transported back into an old underground coal mine that I used to work in. For those who don't know about working in coal mines, it is always dark. The only light you have is the light on your hard hat and the lights on the machinery used.
While I was working in the mine, my light went out. I was left in total darkness. Darkness has a weight to it that you don't really know or feel until you are in total darkness. I have been there and know how it feels. I tried it when I did work in the mine. Anyway, it was at this point that I awoke from sleep. The time was 3:30 AM on a Saturday morning. The scripture that came upon my heart upon awakening was, "Joh 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. "
I Can't Even Walk Without You Holding My Hand
Working in Darkness
To work in the dark one must have a light. You cannot see in total darkness without a light to assist you. To work in darkness means you will stumble and trip upon objects that cannot be seen. You will not be able to know what you are doing because you can't see the fruits of your labor. Darkness is coming and it is coming fast. Every day new laws are presented and many are passed that we know nothing about. I heard just a few days ago that in Columbus Ohio there is a law being pushed through that makes it illegal to preach the Gospel on the streets. I recall recently that in Texas sharia law was used to decide a court case involving a divorce between a Mulism man and his wife. Darkness comes disguised as light and cannot be seen by what it actually is without a spiritual eye that has been opened by Jesus Christ Himself.
We who are called, are to expose darkness for what it is. We are to preach the gospel of Christ no matter the consequences.
Jas 1:2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Jas 1:3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
My God is Real
Conclusion
There is joy in spreading the Gospel of Christ. Even when we are persecuted, there is joy in serving the Lord. Paul and Silas were arrested for preaching the Gospel of Christ. They sang to the Lord while bleeding and hurting from being whipped. It was joy for them to be persecuted for Christ.
This is how our mindsets should be. We should be able to take whatever punishment the world has to offer to us and smile because in Christ we have joy. When darkness overtakes us we are to be a light. When it seems all of hell has come against us we are to remember what the Lord said. "I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Isn't it an awesome blessing to know that the Lord of lords and King of kings fights for us? Unto Him that is worthy to open the books in heaven let our praises ring out loud and clear, let us speak boldly and in truth. Let us do the works of Him that sent us before darkness overtakes us to the point that we cannot work.

Cat, thanks for the quick comment. I think you almost commented before the hub was published :P
Nice hub about your believess sirdent. You should make a youtube video of your band, as it would lend interest to this hub :).
I will do that as soon as we make a CD Sweetie. Thanks for the read and comment.
I have had 3 dreams about the end of days coming. The reign of Christ is just around the corner and I am overjoyed that the darkness will be locked up for 1000 years. The devil and his minions know that they do not have much longer on this earth, so they are getting more and more desparate and restless. We must continue in the fight but do know this, because THEY are getting more and more uneasy, they will attack us, His teachers, preachers, prophets and followers. Continue toi pray and stay steadfast in the faith my freind!
You are a bass player!? Interesting. I am a drummer. I agree with all of your words here. Thank you for the testimony, Brother!
"Just remember that you're not alone in your shame, there is Grace and Forgiveness wherever you are"
Dreams are so strange sometimes, lucky for you , you remember them I usaully can't make sense out of them....and I was also so hoping at least one of your songs would be here...
...And without Angels we would never make it...in my opinion...Nice read Sir :O) Hugs
Hi Bro
Just keep it real with Jesus, and what he did, it magnifies God

SirDent. Thank you for your beautiful words.
Hi,nice reading your hubs.I really like your writings. And about dreams,when I was a new born Christian,God gave me a lot of dreams,most of them being betweem 3 & 4 AM.I had to search the Bible for the answers,God knew what He was doing.Sometimes I got the answer right away,sometimes it would be a while & sometimes the answer came in the strangest places,but He always has an answer.Keep up the wonderful hubs on our Lord.May God continue to bless you & yours.
Sciantel, I appreciate your comment and encouragement more than you know. You have inspired me at times and hleped me to get up at times when I had been feeling down. ***hugs***
James I have been playing bass for a little over 30 years now. The last 12 have been for Jesus.
GMa I believe Angels are emcaped round about us. I truly believe they move things out of our way at times to keep us from harm.
Thanks for the read and comment HOOWANTSTONO. Jesus is the only real thing in my life these days.
silly, not all dreams are of God. Not all dreams are prophetic and some are just crazy dreams that mean nothing at all.
Vladimir, thank you for the read and encouraging comment. I appreciate it deeply.
God will always show the answer to us Linda. It isn't always immediate. Thanks for the read and comment.
Wow, I listened to testimony of someone who experienced "hell" and came back to tell about it. He spoke of the darkness as a "presence", like a coal mine...no light. To see Jesus was the life! Blindness is "darkness" and we not only have to have our eyes continually opened by the Lord to "see" what we need to do, say or be, but to help open the spiritual eyes of the spiritually blind. My daughter showed me the video of "Saving Me" and this guy could see the number of days each person had to live just above each person's head. Our days are numbered, and so is the coming of the Lord. We need to be busy letting His Spirit do the works He predestined us to do!! Amen!!
Thank you for the comment Carrie. The Word says, "It is appointed unto man once to die, then the judgment." Our days are indeed numbered and only God knows the number of days we are allowed.
Sir Dent Thanks for a great hub the Truth of the times that are at hand we are seeing this all unfolding in front of our eyes and the truth is it has been happening for along time now but it is going to get worse. My Hub about God like Orange and Blue has a Video where a Man named Danny tells why Katina hit New Orleans the Lord told him something to check and he found the answer why New Orleans was devastated. Thanks again for your Hubs
Thank You Sir Dent for continuing to let your Light shine! This was encouraging as well as refreshing! Blessings
Lovely!! Jesus is the Light of the world, where He is there is no darkness. And even if we are in the dark, as a child of God, He is still with us. Psalm 139:11,12 says; "I could ask the dark to hide me and the light around me to become night-
But even in the darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are both alike to you." We are called to be the light and salt of the earth. The world a whole is in darkness, those who are without Christ....and it is our mission to spread the good news. Thanks for sharing!! Many Blessings!!
So true! keep us updated about your dreams. It is a gift yo you and then to us here.
Thank you for sharing it.

Thank you for publishing this hub as a reminder to all of us to keep our priorities and perspectives right before God. Darkness does surrounds us daily and we should not be surprised, as it must come to pass in these last days before the coming of the Lord
