And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
Over the past maybe 4 years I have had some dreams. I have never really understoood some, but this last one I did 100%, no doubt in my mind. My day(11/16/11) started doing school work with the kids and as the day went on a curosity rose in me about our youngest, Eli. Since he was young we have noticed he has alot of anger, fear and trust issues. Since he had been in the hospital for phnemonia I thought maybe alot came from that and maybe that hospitalization did contribute partially, but it was also going on at a younger age so I know it isn't what's causing these things. Well on to my day....later on the 16th I was watching TBN and a preacher(can't remember who)came on and was talking about the book of Daniel & he was talking about how it is going to tie in to the last days. I know this seems to be far fetched from the dream, but it does tie in. This got me to wanting to read the book of Daniel, so that night before bed I layed down for bed and picked up my cellphone to do some Bible reading on my iphone Bible application and decided I would read Daniel. I didn't get past chapter 3, I had forgotten what Daniel was about & when I started reading about him fasting and eating only pulse(vegtables & grains) and only drinking water. Then I read on, Daniel was given by God the ability to see and know what the Kings dream meant and he wasn't killed like the sourcerers and magicians. I remember laying there thinking "Man it'd be so neat to have dreams and know what they mean." (Remember, I have had more dreams, not normal dreams...I can remember each detail of a few dreams I have had, but have never known what they really mean & I know they mean something. I may decide to share those dreams another time) That is the last thing I remember while being awake that nite.
The Dream: In the begining we are all as we are now, the sames ages and all. I was busy doing something and the kids were outside playing and Eli was bitten by a snake on the arm/hand. I could see all of this like it was a vision, but Aly still came to tell me. When she took me to him she had brought him in and put him in a room, closed the door and covered him with a pink blanket. When I opened the door and lifted the blanket Eli was lieing in the floor in fetal position breathing rapidly. I picked him up, carried him out of the room and ask some stranger to call the hospital and let them know we were on our way. Next I saw us in the hospital, we had to wait a few minutes and Eli was going in and out of counciousness. One minute he'd be talking to me and the next he'd be out. When the finally put us on a bed to be examined they brought out a tool that looked like a straw, the nurse took it and stuck it into my chest down through the top of my right brest and pulled it out with tissue in it and stuck it into a bag to be sent off for testing. I remember thinking to myself but not saying, "Why are they testing me I wasn't bitten...that's when I realized this wasn't a normal dream, it was spiritual(but I was asleep). Then I remember trying to explain to Eli (6yrs old)that they were going to have to do the sam test on him, but when they were looking for a good place on him to get a tissue sample they couldn't find a place with enough tissue, so I had to pick him up so they could do the test on his back. As I picked him up and looked at his face he was an infant, I was now looking at a crying baby insted of my 6 year old. Then I lightly woke up for a minute and fell back asleep to another dream...this time it was me by myself in a big building that seemed to be a grocery store. I was in it alone or so it seemed. I was walking through the isles and noticed it was a weird store thier were only freezers in this store( I don't remember seeing what was in them, just that, freezers like you see in grocery stores were all that was there) and the next thing I know I am fighting with this person with no one around. No matter how hard I faught I wasn't hurting who ever it was. I remember thinking why aren't they stopping and that my wedding ring should be cutting this person's face and it wasn't, as I thougtht about my ring should be cutting this face I remember looking at the face and looking into evil demon/snake eyes(these eyes were the same eyes I saw when Michael & I were house hunting. I woke up after this dream..
What I knew from this dream that I had been wondering about the previous day was that Eli had been born attached to some of my bondages/problems...they do carry over to our children, thier is absolutly no doubt in my mind of this now..I had been thinking it the day before and pastor Franklin had preached a message on it and I had prayed that any bondaged that had passed from me to him be broken, but I still wasn't 100% if I believed bondages could be transferred( I suppose that's what generational curses are and how they work) but, I know that the Lord has shown me this and I have to be in prayer for our children, as do all parents and all of us for one anothers children...for these are God's children and I know he will protect them. In showing me this I believe he wants me and others to be in prayer for the children that are being attacked spiritually, physically and emotionally...(the snake bite was the devil attacking my child and not only mine but all of our children) I could sit back keep my mouth shut and pray alone, but after thinking about the 2nd dream for a day of feeling like I didn't understand that part of it...I believe the Lord was telling me I can't do this alone, to many people keep attacks from the devil a secret for a fear of imbarrisment or lack of belief. I don't care what people think of me. I had been questioning God and trying to figure out what was going on with Eli all day...I wasn't obcessing, but inquiring the Lord I really wanted to know the TRUTH and he gave it to me along with the solution, which is prayer from the children of His Kingdom for our children that are being attacked...we are all his children and we have all been bitten, but for me this is super personal and I know for a fact that since birth my child has been beeing attacked by the devil. When Eli was born he stopped breathing while eating and the nurses had to rush him out of the room, I know that God is showing me his attack started very early. I believe the devil see's the potential of our kids and then the attacks start early and as children unknowing whats going on they themselves don't know how to handle these issues/attacks comming against them. It is our job as parents to teach our children to handle them properly with prayer, reading God's word & trusting in/leaning on the Lord. If we don't that is when they turn to the world for answers and our children are searching for what they need in the wrong places and are getting into trouble. The devil then can get a foothold on them and work his confusion/lies and distruction in thier/our lives.
I know alot is going on in this entry, but my goal here is to simply let people know that the devil is real and he is attacking us(in our minds, physically, in our marriges, emotionally, exc..) as children of God and our children for he see's what the potential in each of us, as does God. God is also real for he has shown me many things about myself and changed me. God is real and I believe that myself, my kids and children(God's children) are covered/protected by prayer. We as children of the Kingdom of God must pull together in prayer for each other and our children.
The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked,even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I beconfident. One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. Hear, O LORD,when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.When thou saidest, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
And I entreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellow laborers, whose names are in the book of life.
Rejoice in the Lord always:and again I say, Rejoice.
Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
