Military Base - Dream - 3/2018

I had this dream around March 2018

Title:  Home Military Base

Setting:  The setting was in a remote area of Texas.  The land was dry and dusty, but there was a nearby water source of a large lake.

Dream:  I, along with many fellow Christians, were stationed at our Christian Military base camp in Texas.  Many of our church leaders were there, along with our families and other Christians.  This was a very large place that was chosen to train and prepare for the enemies attack while staying hidden in an unlikely dry and dusty area.  The buildings and houses all looked abandoned from the outside, and we kept it that way on purpose.  Everyone was dressed in fatigues or camouflage of some kind.  I was in my camo skirt and top with my combat boots on.

The enemy’s camp was the islands of Hawaii.  Beautiful and lush with all the extravagant amenities anyone could want or desire, except that it was run by Satan and his fallen kingdom.

I was outside beginning my duties when someone ran up to me yelling that a POW had been recovered and insisted on speaking with me (I was a high ranking leader in our military).  This POW, Nicholas, was badly injured, but refused medical attention until he spoke with me.  I had him brought to the infirmary and met him there.  He informed me that the enemy was coming.  They had discovered our location and was going to strike in 3 days.

After giving me the information he promptly passed out.

I left him and ran outside to the various leaders that were conducting drills and told them what was learned.  3 days was not much time.  They gathered their groups to try to get people moving, but chaos broke out among the ranks. 

I pulled the leaders aside and we quickly came up with a plan then broke everyone else into their platoons and gave them orders.  Once orders were given the chaos was removed and everyone knew what their specific task was.  They went about it diligently. 

I re-entered the main bunkhouse/family house and began throwing furniture over and making it look old and abandoned.  My mom cam running up to me protecting something covered in her hands.  She said, "I have baked the pie.  Here it is."  and she handed me a whole cherry pie.  This pie was extremely important and it was a treasure. 

I took the pie, put it in a basket and hid it in the top of a cabinet with a bunch of trash and bottles in front of it.  I said to her, "We can not let the enemy devour this treasure."  She had completed her job and was allowed to go help others.

I ran outside again and noticed that there were a lot of people on the large dinner cruise sized boat on the lake that were not broken into ranks and doing their job, so I ran out there to get them organized and moving.  Once on board I was able to clear the upper decks and get people moving to their appointed tasks.

When I moved to the lowest deck I saw that no one was paying attention, but rather they were listening to one particular man speak with them.  As I drew closer I immediately knew that something was wrong.  I did not know this man and he had everyone lulled into a contented nothingness.  I asked him what he was doing and he informed me that he was giving the people around him 'another way'.  As a leader, I commanded him to leave and for everyone to go to their stations.  No one moved, but several people stood up to watch what would happen.  Apparently the outcome of what was about to take place was extremely important and would determine which 'way' these people followed and whom they would obey.

The man stood up, jeered at me with a menacing laugh of victory before even a fight had ensued.  He lunged at me to kill and defeat me.  He was going to tear our camp apart from the inside.  At this point I had wished I had time to put on my fatigues instead of my camouflage skirt (funny thing to think during a dream), but was glad that I had my combat boots on and my weapons holstered within reach. 

This man attacked, lunged and threw himself at me over and over again yet I was able to avoid his advances.  I was growing tired and strained, but KNEW that the only victory would be in killing this man.  So at his next advance toward me I picked up a chair and cracked it over his head.  He died instantly.

The people that had been standing around watching and entranced in this man's stories were suddenly snapped out of their stupor after his death and handed their lives over to the King of Kings and joined our army.

The dream ended, but I knew that we were going to win the war.

Interpretation:

Nicholas means VICTORY - he is the one that informed us of the enemy's attack.

Whole Pie: Total fulfillment

Cherry: Ultimate of new blessings

Fruit: Fruit of the Spirit

**So we could not allow the enemy to devour the treasure of the Total Fulfillment and Ultimate New Blessings brought out by the Fruit of the Spirit.  He could not be allowed to devour the work we had done in the Spirit.**

3-days: (we had 3 days warning until the attack) Three means Conform and Obey.  Days represents truth manifest; evil revealed.

**I feel this was a warning dream for us to not be infiltrated from the inside.  To keep watch, be vigilant and keep training.  We must protect the work of the Holy Spirit and not allow the enemy to devour it.

Commander In Chief - Vision - 2007

I had this Vision in church in early 2007.

During the church service we were led to get on our knees before the Lord.  While on my knees the room opened up before my eyes and I saw this vision.

I saw Jesus standing in front of me dressed in full military dress.

He told me, "I am your Commander in Chief.  Not simply your Father, not only your Savior, but your commander in Chief.  When I enter the room you are suppose to stand at Attention awaiting orders.  My orders may be 'At Ease' or they could be tactical orders in preparation for war.  When I enter the room you are to stand at attention and await orders."

The vision ended.

I had a second Vision in church in March 2007 that goes along with the vision above.  

During worship the church faded away and I saw the following in my mind's eye.

There was a great multitude of people standing in one direction.  A huge crowd that spanned the Ages.  Every time period, every race both male and female were there.  The crowd was like the sea, larger than my eyes could behold.

Then I saw Jesus ride up on a white horse and stop in front of the crowd.  He was sitting very strong and majestic on the horse.  Jesus was adorned in a Royal Robe, a sash, a crown...the splendor of a King.

The crowd was going WILD, not "worshiping" or "praising", but screaming, "Yeah.  Wooh.  Alright..." and jumping up and down with uncontrollable excitement.  This went on for several minutes.  Then.  Jesus stepped down off the horse and all at once the entire crowd fell quiet and dropped to their knees in complete adoration for God.

This seemed to be just before the final battle.

The vision ended.

Two Water Storms - Dream - 1/2019

Dream: January 24, 2019

Natalie Sherwood

Setting:

Two Water Storms

Intro:

I had two dreams the night of January 23^rd, morning of January 24^th that went together. I awoke from the first dream and could only remember a little bit of it, but when I went back to sleep it seemed to continue on to the second dream which I remember in detail, and I feel the same things took place in the first dream.

Dream:

In the first dream I heard about these two powerful storms that had started on the earth.  They were powerful and dangerous, they never stopped, yet they also never moved; they stayed stationary.

I KNEW that I had to go see these storms myself.  I was drawn to them like a mission in my life.

When I told my mom about them and how I felt about needing to go see them she said, “Well, OK.  I’ll take you.  Let’s go.”  So we jumped in her car and went on a road trip to go see these two storms (they were in different areas of the world, yet we were driving there in her car).

We arrived at the first storms location and a huge wall had been built around the storm.  The wall had a museum inside it that tried to explain the storm and where it came from and what it was.  It also contained a restaurant and there was a town built around the wall of the storm.

The storm itself reached all the way up to the sky.  It was made entirely of water and wind, but it stayed contained in one spot about the size of 3 acres.  You could not see the storm from outside or inside the wall because the wall was so tall it covered the view of the storm.  The wall was solid except for one set of large double glass doors that you could look through or even enter to go see the storm.  It was EXTREMELY RARE for anyone to enter the double glass doors to visit the storm area, but many came to peek through the glass a good distance back.

I remember that I entered the glass doors to go see the storm, but I don’t remember anything else about the storm in this particular dream.  I have full details in the second dream.

I left the storm area knowing I had completed what I was suppose to, but felt even stronger that I had to go see the second storm.

I woke up.

Intro:

When I woke up I knew I had been in a very special and important dream, but was unable to remember very many details, so I asked God to give it to me again if it was important.  I fell back asleep.

Now began the second dream.

Dream:

I knew I had to go to the second storm.  There was no question…I was called to go there. 

My mom and I jumped into her car and went off on our journey.  It was not a difficult journey, just like a road trip that would take a few days.  This second storm was in an entirely different part of the world.

When we arrived this storm and town was just like the first one.  The storm was stationary covering about a 3-acre plot of land.  A huge wall had been built around the storm to contain the storm and to keep people from seeing it from the outside.  Again, inside the wall were a museum, shops and restaurant.

The storm area was completely surrounded except for one set of double glass doors.

When my mother and I entered the wall she went off to grab some food, use the restroom and look around while waiting for me to do whatever it was I felt I needed to do.  We agreed to meet back in the restaurant area when I was done.

I trodded carefully down the hall that lead to the glass doors.  Once I reached them there was a man standing there that said, “Are you going in there?  Almost no one goes in there, and if they do they stay far back from the storm near the door.  It’s dangerous you know.  Be careful.”  I nodded then placed my hands on the handles to open the door.

I slipped in and as the door shut behind me I realized that nothing else mattered.  The storm was all I could feel, hear and see.  It was bright where the storm was.  The sound was a violent windy roar with waves crashing.  The winds were strong, powerful and whipping.  All sound would be completely drown out by the noise of the storm, and I was the only one in there. 

A platform had been build around the entire circumference of this circular water storm, and the edge of the platform stopped about 2 inches from the beginning edge of the storm.  The storm itself was completely water.  I would like to call it a water tornado that reached all the way up to the sky and took up the entire 3 acres of land, but it didn’t spin in a circular motion.  Rather, the water/waves took on the characteristic of fire, lapping and leaping into the sky.

I felt every movement in this place.  I felt the heaviness of each step I took, felt my hair blowing across my face and whipping around my head.  I heard the roar and felt water and mist completely envelops me like standing too close to a waterfall. 

I stepped forward until I was just about a foot away from the outer wall of the storm.  I looked up at its height and sideways at its breadth…it was overwhelming.  I knew that if I stepped into the storm I would be completely consumed.

Once I finished my observations I reached out a tentative hand and rested my palm on the very outer fringe of the water storm wall rising above me.  I closed my eyes and just stood there in awe.  I do not know how much time passed.

At some point I knew I had completed what I had come to do and felt compelled to leave.  I was filled to overflowing. 

When I left and went to the restaurant people were looking at me, pointing and whispering.  There were shocked and amazed that I had not only gone into the area of the storm, but had stepped forward and touched it for a long time.  I kept walking and didn’t even notice them.

In the restaurant I ran into two ladies that were very strong fellow Christians that I had known since childhood.  They came up to me and we all stated that we didn’t know each other were there.  I asked them if they were going to go see the storm.  They said that they were going to go peek in through the glass door, but probably not go in. 

Then they noticed that I was dripping wet and asked me if I went in.  I said to them, “The storm is very dangerous, but it is also safe.” 

At that moment I knew it was time for me to leave (now the dream shifts to a different scene), so I run outside and jump into my Dad’s truck.  My mom was now gone from the dream and my Dad was the one that was driving me home. 

While riding in my dad’s truck on the road trip toward home he says to me, “We need to stoop and get that tooth checked out.” 

I give him a funny look and say, “What are you talking about?  My teeth are fine.”

He insists that something is wrong with my tooth and that we need to get it checked out immediately.  So I conceded and told him to take me somewhere even though I felt fine and my teeth were fine.

He pulled into a tiny strip center and we walk into a doctor’s office (not a dentist), and standing there was my childhood doctor.  She was so happy to see us, and it was odd to find her somewhere in the world on this journey not close to home. 

I sat in a dentist chair for her (even though this was a doctors office), and she looked inside my mouth with a dental mirror.  She said, “Oh yeah, this tooth has to go.  It has a cavity trying to form at the gum line in the very back and it needs to come out or it will infect the other teeth.”

I gave her a strange look and said, “How can I believe you?  My teeth look and feel fine.  They don’t even hurt.  How do I know you aren’t just trying to pull out my tooth for money.” 

She said, “I’ll show you, but first let me look at your other teeth.”  She took a good long look at each of my other teeth and said, “Your other teeth are absolutely beautiful.  They are perfect, not a single speck of tartar or plaque.  And they are so straight.  Now, let me show you the one on the top back.”  She held up the mirror and sure enough I was able to see a small rotting cavity at the gum line on the very back of my top left molar, the tooth the furthest back in my mouth. 

“Fine, if it needs to come out let’s just get it over with then we will be done with that.” I said.

I closed my eyes; she reached into my mouth with her tooth extraction tool and pulled my tooth out with NO painkiller.  It only took a moment, but when she extracted my tooth I felt the pain (even in my sleep)

I told her that when she pulled out the tooth I felt ‘white hot pain.’  She said that was normal, but only lasted a moment, and made sure that I no longer felt any pain.  I agreed that the pain was short lived…only a moment.

“There that is done, and your new tooth has already grown half way in…it should be all the way in by tonight, and it looks perfect.  Absolutely beautiful.”  She said.

I said, “What?  That was an adult tooth, not a baby tooth.  How do I have a new tooth?”

She said, “It doesn’t matter, you have a perfect new tooth coming in.”

Then I got back in the truck with my Dad and we continued our journey home.

The dream ended

Interpretation:

Mom/Mother:  The Source, church, love  (my mother was driving me on this journey)

Father/Dad:  Authority, God, author, originator, source  (my father was driving me home and telling me about my tooth and insisting I have it taken care of)

Driver:  Control, Christ

Storm:  Change, spiritual warfare

White Storm:  (this storm was light, wind and water…no darkness) God’s power, Revival

Light: Manifest, revealed

Water: Spirit, Word, Spirit of God

Troubled Water: Healing

Wind: Spirit, Holy Spirit

Wall:  Barrier, obstacle, limitation, unbelief

Door: Entrance, Christ  Window:  Revealed, truth, prophecy, revelation (Glass doors)

Doctor:  Healer, Authority, Christ

Teeth:  Wisdom  New Teeth: New or stronger wisdom, the old and decaying being removed

Top Back Left Tooth: 

            Left: Spiritual, weakness of man, God’s strength demonstrated through man’s weakness

            Back:  Past, previous, unaware, unsuspecting, memory

           

Revival is coming and may already be here, but it is being walled off, contained.  We are trying to contain the power of God and not allowing it to move.  He is fearsome, scary, dangerous yet safe.

If we allow God, the church and the source will lead us to Himself, and God, the author and originator will lead us from Him to what comes next.  He will be faithful to help us extract past wrong thinking, memories and experiences to bring us to new wisdom.

Wedding Banquet - Vision

"In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.  Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams."  Acts 2:17

I have mentioned in the past that the Lord speaks to me in both dreams and visions.  Out of the two dreams are the majority way He speaks to me, but I also hear Him in many other ways.  Often times just that still small voice spoken about in 1 Kings.

"The He said, "Go out, and stand on the mountain before the Lord."  And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind and earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice."  1 Kings 19:11-12 

Back in 2008 my mom encouraged me to begin journaling and keeping a record of the dreams He gives me, so over the past several years I have attempted to do so.  I fall extremely lacking in attempting to grasp the fullness of feeling, depth and emotions in these dreams, and I have not been faithful to record each and every one of them.  Looking back I wish I had heeded her advice to keep ALL of my dreams no matter how insignificant they seemed at the time.  Even more, I wish I had recorded all the dreams I have had since the Lord began giving them to me back in 1987.  I do remember some as if I had them last night, but many are lost to the deep recesses of my mind.

Lately I have felt a strong tug of the Lord to put some the dreams 'out there'.  So here I am.  Putting some dreams out here on this blog.

Read these, see what the Lord might be saying to you.  And know that He still speaks to us today!

This first one I am sharing with you today was actually a vision.

Wedding Banquet

I was sitting on the floor in a small group worship time when I had this vision back in 2008. 

The feeling of this vision was: The wedding banquet of Christ, the body is the bride.  Amazing, beautiful, stunning, overwhelming.  Encouragement for the church.

Vision:

This vision is literally the reception banquet/ball/gala after the wedding of the body of Christ (Bride) to her groom Christ Himself.

It is dusk outside although it is still very light and easy to see, as if the sun will never really set, but the dusk gives atmosphere.  

There is a long line of literally millions of people (thousands from every nation, origin and era of the earth) lining up to enter what looks like a huge stone palace.  The front doors of the palace were ornately carved out of a hard wood, they stood at least 3 stories tall, and they were open.  On either side of the walkway leading up to the front door were tall lamp stands and lanterns lit with glowing candles and tied off with gold and purple ribbons.  Music floated across the air, and everyone was excited to enter and see her groom as a newly married couple.

Every person in this long line was dressed in a wedding gown (men and women).  Not the white, American wedding gown we are use to, but almost a wedding robe, some with pants and some without, but all were almost ankle length.  

Each robe/gown was made especially for each person.  Every one of the gowns was unique and stunning.  All of them were made of heavenly material and were seamless.  Some were layers upon layers of fabric and others were simply one or two layers, as if each person had their preference and these gowns were custom ordered.  Some were white fabric with gold and scarlet ropes woven into them.  Others were blues and purples with silver accents.  There were colors I have never seen before, and no two gowns were alike.  The gowns were trimmed with precious stones that sparkled, tassels that swayed or bells that softly chimed with the person’s movements.  Each person was also wearing a crown upon his or her head, again each one unique and specially made.

Although I must have been in that line for a long amount of time it only felt like moments before I was approaching the front doors (as if time did not exist anymore and waiting was not an issue).  When I was only a few people back from the entrance I realized that Christ Himself was standing at the door greeting each person.  He was also wearing a robe like everyone else’s, but he was also wearing multiple sashes with writing on them. Then my turn came. 

Standing just outside the doorway I saw a huge banquet/ball room.  The floors were a golden stone and each table had to be as long as a football field.  

The tables were decorated with flowers of every color and live birds sitting down the center runners of each table.  The food was surrounding these extravagant centerpieces.  Dishes I could never imagine.  

Hanging from the ceiling and walls were banners, veils and drapes of every color and fabric imaginable.  Each one with its own meaning.  The people that were seated were already eating and laughing and singing to the music that filled the air, yet it was not loud to be surrounded by so many. 

Once in the doorway, Christ took me by the arm and escorted me, with love and tenderness, to my seat.  He pulled out my chair and invited me to eat and enjoy.  He then returned to the doorway and escorted the next person.  Christ met and escorted each and every person to his or her seat with the most love and tenderness a groom could give to his new bride.  

Once everyone was seated and eating, Christ then began with the first person again and took him or her onto the dance floor and danced with them.  He danced a first dance with every single person (His Bride) in the room.  

When my turn came to dance it was as if I was surprised and delighted that Christ was standing behind me with His hand out.  I took His hand and as we walked to the dance floor all I could do was feel His love and hear the music.  As we danced, I noticed not another person in the room.  It felt as if we danced for an eternity, and He was singing in my ear as we glided across the floor.  Then when we were done He escorted me back to my chair.  

The evening seemed to never end.

That was the end of my vision.

Romans Road:

Friends, this may have been a vision, but it was more REAL than real.  More real than anything I have experienced here on earth.  The very air was alive and life giving. 

Don't let this moment pass you by. 

One day there will be a bridal banquet, and my hope is that you will be one of the millions there to eat of its food.

Romans 3:23 says "For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God."  

and

Romans 6:23 states "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Death for sin is bad news, but it doesn't end there.

Romans 5:8 says that "God demonstrates His love toward us, in that, while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Wonderful, a way out of sin and death has been made.  Now what?

Romans 10:9-10 declares "That if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.  For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation"

Yes, salvation form sin and death, and all we have to do is confess and believe!

Romans 10:13 says "For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

So yes, this very moment, no matter where you are or who you have been, you can call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved!

Don't hesitate.  Call on Him now!
