The first dream the Lord gave me just a few months after I accepted Christ as my savior:

SPRING, 1989

I had fully committed to God a few months earlier when I had a dream that I knew somehow was of some significance. I saw a peaceful, soft light in the dream. It came closer slowly. As it came, I heard a voice declare , ‘Go and tell all the people that I am coming soon.' There was a sense of urgency and desperation. The light seemed to be coming toward me faster and faster, at a great speed and a great sense of urgency and speed was felt as the light came closer and closer and I heard this word several times. end

The first vision God gave me after I was filled with the Holy Spirit:

JANUARY, 1992

The Lord gave me a vision that was horrific and gory. I saw Christ standing and I saw his hand holding a sharp blade and viciously severing his head. I thought this must be demonic at first but as I prayed the Lord began to speak to me. He spoke to me, "The wheels are turning." He says this several times and leads me to read Ezekiel. I read and the Lord speaks these words from Ezekiel to me: He told him to go and prophesy bold words of fire to Israel who had become rebellious. He has him eat a book of woes, lamentations and sorrows. The vision of the body seeking to cut off the head was a word about Christ the head of the body and the body, being the church who is rebellious, full of error and murderous. The body sought to be disconnected from the Head/Christ.

The Lord's working in my life prior in 8/11 (just weeks before 9/11 attacks):

August, 2001

I have been led to pray in a way that is very different. I've never felt anything like this before. I feel like I can only weep and pray as though something terrible is going to happen. I ask the Lord to show me what is going on. I pray for every family member I know and everything I can think of. The grief and sorrow never leaves me. I can barely sit through a church service. I go to an empty Sunday School room during the service because I feel I need to be on my knees or on my face and weep and sob and pray. I keep asking God to show me things. He shows me:

THE WORLD IS FULL OF SIN AND MY CHURCH IS FULL OF ERROR.

I do not know what he means by this but I continue to pray and weep. And I am afraid because of what I am feeling. The Lord says,

YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WILL BE SAFE. YOU WILL BE FINE. REMEMBER MY WORD. ENDURE.

God continues to speak these same messages to me often. 1.) Tell all the people I am coming soon. 2.) The wheels are turning. Speak to my rebellious house. 3.) The world is full of sin and the church is full of error. 4.) You and your family will be safe. Remember My Word. Endure.
