Before the Lord returns, the devil and his angels will be cast down to the earth knowing he has only a little time left (Revelation 12:7-12). Then the world will enter into a time of trouble unlike anything that has ever happened before (Daniel 12:1).
The good news is the devil doesn’t have the final say. He has plans for evil, but the Lord has plans for good. Great darkness and spiritual blindness is coming upon those who don’t know the Lord, but great light and spiritual revelation is coming upon God’s people. The dark is getting darker, but the light is getting lighter. The contrast will become so visible that kings will take note of it and search out the people of God to inquire of their wisdom and understanding (Isaiah 60:1-3).
On March 22 2015, I had a dream in which I saw manifestations of spiritual warfare unlike anything I have ever seen before, but at the same time I saw great discernment and spiritual authority come upon me unlike anything I have ever seen before. This dream had three different scenes.
Scene One:
I was driving a large RV and somehow I got off the road. I was on the side of a cliff. I started backing up to get back on the road. At that point. . . my view shifted so I was viewing it from a distance. I saw my van start to fall off the cliff, but it was supernaturally placed back on the road.
Scene Two:
I was in a room and saw someone entering the room. It appeared to be a man and a boy. I instantly saw them manifest into what I knew was a demon. There were other people there also, but they could not see this manifestation.
The man was a human skeleton type of being. I don’t remember what the little boy was, but it was a dark entity. I stared at them. They had to look away and said, “Don’t look at us!”
I continued to stare at them anyway and said with authority, “GET OUT!”
I didn’t even have to say “in the name of Jesus.” The authority of Jesus was already on me and in me, so they had to obey.
This had never happened to me in any dream before, because I have always used the name of Jesus. I must ponder this one, but what immediately comes to my mind is the Scriptural Verse: Galatians 2:20 – ” I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”
Scene Three:
I was aware that the gift of discernment had increased within me. Demons were disguising themselves as humans, so with our physical eyes they looked just like us. However, I was able to discern and know they were demons. Since they were demons, we still had authority over them, as was given to us by Jesus as his followers and disciples.
NOTE: and no, I’m not saying we are “the disciples” we read about in the Bible. . . it is to show we are disciples if we truly believe that we are following Jesus. Also, Jesus even told his followers then: Matthew 28:18-20 – “And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’ ”
SO, aren’t we then disciples, if we truly follow and serve Jesus?
Interpretation:
Scene One shows amazing supernatural protection for God’s people. My van should have gone over the cliff, but the Lord rescued me.
Scene Two reveals demons are already manifesting and walking around amongst us, even more now than before CERN set off the supercollider at MAX. However, we must have discernment from the Holy Spirit to “see”. Also, IF and WHEN people start feeling uncomfortable around us, or can’t look us in the eyes, we can ask the Holy Spirit what’s going on. They could be demons manifesting as humans, or they could be people who need deliverance and the demons within them are uncomfortable with the greater light shining from us.
So be prepared and don’t get offended when it happens… just take it to the Lord in prayer. We can even step away for a moment, saying we need to use the restroom or some other excuse, if needed. WE ARE IN SPIRITUAL WARFARE THAT HAS RAMPED UP!!
Can demonic spirits really manifest in human bodies? According to the Bible, the angels of the Lord are able to appear on earth in human bodies. We are warned to always show hospitality to strangers, because we sometimes entertain angels without knowing it (Hebrews 13:2). They can look so much like us we can’t even tell the difference.
Scene Three shows God’s people will be equipped with increased discernment and increased authority. We will be well prepared for the battles ahead!
Here are some Scripture verses to keep in mind:
John 1:1-5 –
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”
John 14:12-15 –
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it. If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”
Ephesians 6:10-17 –
“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Stand firm therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”
Galatians 2:20 –
” I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”
Matthew 28:18-20 –
“And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. ‘Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’ “
You are correct. It is getting more intense as we are gathering more beings. I am joining in on it shortly.
Although about scene two might be that those were entering your dream. which is why you did not need his name to expel them as in your mind you are in charge of who comes or goes. And so ofc they are forced to leave.
We cannot enter anyone’s mind without permission. This happens gradually as we teach them.
I wish you a wonderful day 🙂
Linda and all people reading you really neeed to watch on youtube, if possible watch them all , but Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj lancaster Prophetic conderence 2015 Session 5A ans 5B , and also neville Johnson…… its been almost 2 weeks and Im still watching it and pondering it, True Prophets of God, you will really enjoy it, its about the last days and the annointing…I hope you share it with as many as possible
Shalom
Thankyou Karen for your encouraging comments. Thankyou for taking the time to prayerfully reply.
It makes a lot of sense, Bryan. We are to love the Lord with all of our heart, mind, strength, and love our neighbor as ourself. If we don’t know what it is to love ourselves, then we are not able to love our brother. It takes a renewed spirit to discern this love from above. Yes, Brother Bryan, much of what is happening cannot be prayed away, but we can understand as much as we can and then tell someone. I mean just tell someone that God loves them and there is a way through Christ to express our love to Him. Most everyone I have ever met knows that there is a God. They may twist it, reject it, pick another, but all that takes a conscious effort, the truth is the truth. It’s so much easier than a lie that the soul tells to itself by ways of sin. I agree, there are certain things that are not in the will of God to pray about, but praying scripture, with understanding is the beginning of a prophetic intercessory prayer life. You will always have the precious love and enjoy the Savior, and the joy will also take you into deep understanding of things you may not know at the moment.
Hello Linda. I am noticing that my prayer life has been changing lately. I have read somewhere in a comment that you have noticed the same. Am I reading that right ? In fact I have have some rebukes recently from the Lord concerning what not to pray for, which seemed unusual (and a bit scary) at the time. He is bringing some stuff upon the world that cant be prayed away. He said to me He will not relent. So consequently there are some topics not up for discussion with Him, because the countdown has begun – this is what I have heard personally in the last couple of weeks. And when I say prayer I mean the intercessory type or the request type, or the pleading type. Now I still enjoy the fun type conversations with Jesus, but I am noticing I need to be very careful with my mind. I think he is asking us to be more focused with our prayer in this historical season we are in, and become more disciplined in our minds. Is this making any sense ? God bless you in your courage to put out there what you believe to be His message to us all. Keep it up.
Debra Walker, AMEN on your last comment and may we ALL be filled with and led by the Holy Spirit, so we can be fully utilized by the LORD in these final days.
Debra Walker, regarding your dream of Russian States of America, I believe it goes along with many of the prophecies that have occurred over the decades whereby Russia will be attacking/invading the USA. At this time, I don’t have clarity on whether or not the Russian gov’t will be seeking out those who are filled with and led by the Holy Spirit.
Hi Debra Walker, regarding Isaiah 60:1-3, James Baily graciously assisted with editing/adding to my post to help give clarity. I have to give him the credit for adding that verse to this post. I know that gave me clarity as well.
Linda, scene two makes me think of Peter’s shadow falling on people and healing them or delivering them from evil spirits. He not only didn’t have to speak the name of Jesus, but he didn’t even have to speak, period. See Acts 5:12-16. I have actually experienced this once. I had just finished a few hours of praise & worship, prayer, and Bible study when someone came over to my house to pick up the washing machine and dryer we were giving them. He brought a friend to help, and they loaded the appliances onto their truck with no problem. When they were ready to leave, I asked what I could pray about for them. They looked blank, so I asked if they or any in their families needed healing from anything. The man’s friend said, “You should have her pray for your back.” Thus reminded, he replied, “Oh, yeah!,” and his hand quickly reached to his low back. But before he could explain the problem to me, as his hand touched his back, realization and then joy crossed his face. He had already been healed by the presence of the Holy Spirit. Pointing to the appliances in the truck, he declared, “I shouldn’t have been able to do that! That’s why I brought him!” Then a lively discussion ensued about how bad his back had been for the last six months and how now it didn’t hurt at all. It might also be noteworthy that only about three days prior, after reading Acts 5 in my study, I had prayed and specifically asked Father God if I could some day be blessed in being able to heal people as Peter did, just by being near enough to them. But of course it was God Himself who actually did the healing. He gets the glory! I was just the vehicle He worked through, the way He worked through Peter. So yes, Linda, this is possible when we are so filled with the Spirit.
Linda, I am just rereading your post and have a personal question: re your 2nd paragraph and Isaiah 60:1-3. I had to read that scripture in multiple versions and ask the Lord, but I believe you are correct in what you say. I had never seen that before. My question is, do you think this is what my Russian States of America dream was all about? It was posted here several months ago; you can link to it under my name in the Authors group to the right.
Linda, I confirm your statement that ALL gifts will be necessary… In some cases, one individual is given all nine of the spiritual gifts. In other cases, God will bring together a group of people who have all nine among them. The Holy Spirit distributes the gifts as He determines is best for the Kingdom. “But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.” (1 Corinthians 12:7, KJV) To profit withal means to benefit all or everyone, but the text is talking about the Church, the body of Christ.
Thank you Joe and Karen . . . more confirmation about what we will continue to see unfold. I TRULY hope all who profess to be a Christian, will seek the Heavenly Father for ALL that He will give them. We absolutely WILL need everything we can be given by the Holy Spirit to help us in the days ahead. ALL gifts will be necessary for survival in order to fulfil the calling on our life in these final days; primary focus – – – -bringing in souls to the Kingdom of Heaven, while serving one another.
Jose, yes, it is chilling. We are told in Ephesians to put on the whole armor of God. When doing this I speak it out loud, in this way, I have to think, engage my mouth, then I also hear with my ears. My thought processes are flooded with the knowledge of God and I meditate upon each area of the armor. There are many breakdowns on this, but simply put is this: loins girded with the belt of truth protects the area of the belly from which living waters flow; breastplate of righteousness protects the area of heart and lungs, that nothing pierce the heart, nor takes the breath of life; feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of peace, protects our feet and our ability to run and stand up; helmet of salvation protects our mind, our thoughts; shield of faith covers our body from attack; sword of the spirit is the word of God which is able to cut asunder the lie from the truth. Then we are told that having done all, that we stand, praying with all manner of prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching. Then it is written, that utterance may be given, that I open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the Gospel. It is imperative to store up the word of God in our hearts, and through the mind by the Holy Spirit we make utterance by way of our mouth, speaking the Gospel truth, it is a defense weapon, defending what is true, and when we speak the word of God the authority of God is released and will not come back void. We stand by faith, and our faith is strengthened. And, we overcome by the blood of the lamb, the word of our testimony, and love not our lives unto the death. The testimony we all have is truth of the lamb that was slain to take away our sins, and be prepared to give up our lives, to follow Him, even unto the death. Revelation 12:11 I just did a little study, very powerful on the three temptations of Christ after he fasted. He responded to the tempting by only speaking the word of God. the study covered controlling the appetite related to lust; tempting God related to immaturity, and impatience; idolatry related to worshiping what is temporal, making ourselves our own god by denying the Lord, The Ten Commandments tell us that He is God and we are to have no other gods before Him. We get the knowledge of the word, then understanding comes, and then wisdom.
Linda, I have a dream that is not yet published, yet I want to express one part of it to you because you mentioned the same thing in the scriptures, as I did, Here is an excerpt. Then I heard some kind of growling and snarling. I did not look back but waited until 2 men/evil spirits were right behind me and I turned. As I did they reached out to lay hands on me and take me away from the Presence of the Lord, but as they lurched forward, the hand of God lifted me up into the air. When these saw me lifted up they were filled with fear and fled. I believe the two spirits represented the riders of the pale horse, Death and Hell.
I can also relate my personal experience to this post from a dream that occurred this morning; In my dream, two human individuals dressed like two law enforcement agents were walking behind me as I approached my house. I had the feeling to look at the glass windows to see their reflections, that’s when I noticed that one of them had red eyes. I quickly turned around and exposed their cover. I also mentioned to them that Jesus Christ was right next to me, and as they looked upon him, they could not withstand his presences. At that moment, I went into the house and closed the door behind me, but I had to push and hold the door secure because the demons were trying to force their way in. I was also being helped by someone else to hold the door secure. As I was holding the door secure, I could see outside many demons walking one behind the other on the side walk, and a few turned towards my door to try forcing their way in.
I noticed that the demons that were walking by, they all were different and in purpose. The different level of spiritual warfare is now present in our dreams but there will be a time when this will be manifested, but greater is the Glory of our God and powerful the name of Jesus Christ that we will not fear.
Regarding your open vision, Karen, I think that may have been around the same time I had a “zombie” dream. I’ll go ahead and share it here (it may be posted at a later time as a single post): July 2014 END TIMES DREAM . . Zombie-like people – – – (and note, I saw the time 4:11 when I got to this note section. 4-1-1 is the number you call for information in Kansas City).
I have been feeling ill for several hours . .. . feverish, so went to bed. I read in the Bible for a while. I had this End Times dream I felt the LORD prompted me to write down:
—————————
I was at my Mom and Dad’s house (where I grew up in St. Louis) . . . there was a man, with a large hat and coat. . . across the alleyway. I felt strongly pulled to look at the man’s shoes. . . . something about him just didn’t seem “right”. Something sinister. Across the way this man was over another man’s body, but all I could see is the feet because they were both hidden behind a building and telephone pole. The man’s feet were bare, but I saw the shoes of the evil man. (CAUTION: the next is graphic, but thank God I didn’t see the full scene, just “knew” what was happening) – – – I knew the evil man was plunging something metal into the rectum of the man who had bare feet . . . that man was dead.
Later, I knew some evil people were coming into the house . . .they had been in many places . . . I ran out the door from where ever it was that I lived . . . a horse was waiting for me to help me escape. I yelled for Zeke (our cat) to come outside, because even our animals weren’t safe. Several cats came running out the door, including Zeke, who came over to me. I reached down and scooped him up onto the back of the horse with me. The horse turned around to sniff him, then off we rode.
The scene changed and I saw people I knew, who had come under the influence of evil and it had changed them into something non-human. I saw a man I knew [Mr. N] had turned evil. . . . Somehow I knew that when I started praying in the spirit, outloud, that it would deprogram people. The “programed” people would turn any other human into something like themselves, if they found them anywhere. So, praying outloud, in the spirit, Mr. N became himself again. . . . but many others were walking the streets, looking for non-programmed people to “program”.
There was no place to safely walk around in public places .. . . . I had to stay hidden. At one point, a lady had something she wanted me to look at, but I had to hold it up to my eye (like a camera). I knew if I did that, I would be “programed”, so in order not to be “programmed”, I held it up, but closed my eye.
I noticed another pair of sandals on somebody . . . the way they were made was very different. That was a “safe” person who had not been programmed. Very FEW existed, that had not been programmed.
I was “on the run” and at one point, I ended up in what may have been a grain silo, while trying to escape. I escaped, but had to stay “on alert” because most people were “programmed”. End of Dream.
Praying about this dream, these Scriptural verses come to mind:
Revelation 6:7-8 “When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come.” I looked, and behold, an ashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.”
Sounds like the plot of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I too have had a dream similar to yours, more than once. As my relationship with Christ has grown the more I see that movie as spiritual warfare.
Amen, Karen. We can be given the gift of discernment from the Holy Spirit; I pray ALL will seek that gift, because we will need it in the days ahead.
Linda, I agree that spiritual warfare is becoming more intense. We have to discern strategies of the adversary, and learn strategies of prayer. Devils, unclean spirits and what are called elementals, are disembodied spirits that seek bodies to inhabit. They are in this atmosphere, the first heaven. Fallen angels and other entities inhabit what we would call outer space, place of the stars, yet it is the second heaven. The third heaven is the dwelling place of the Father and the Son at the right hand side. We have learned that we wrestle not with flesh and blood, but principalities in high places. These in the higher location have control over those they command here. Casting out is for here, in terms of deliverance and prayer, and binding and loosing is for those of the next magnitude. It gets fierce, but it is an intercessory strategy. Devils seek to affect the mind and thoughts, unclean spirits seek to inhabit the body to express lust, and elementals have to do with indwelling idols and associated with what we would call religious spirits, very tormenting, as these have to do with idolatry and causing movement. This kind of strategic intercession is not to be entered into lightly, as it does cause backlash. It’s sort of like this idea: you noticed them, and they noticed that you noticed them. You mentioned what you saw/discerned. About 4 weeks ago I was awakened about 3 AM. I broke my own rule about being not being compelled to go outside, yet I did. I was about to come back in when all I can say is that I believe I had an open vision, or a manifestation experience. Across the intersection from me I saw what looked like 6 men shuffling towards me in the gravel of the road. There was no other sound but that. They looked like scarecrows, old out of date clothing, rumpled and so bizarre, that I stood there about 20 seconds wondering what I was looking at. I suddenly had the thought of zombie apocalypse and turned and came in. What frightened me is that I stood there so long…I know that 20 seconds doesn’t seem like a long time, but it took me that long to grasp it. I went to the front window to see what they were going to do and they were nowhere to be seen. I had thought to call 911, but what would I say? I then prayed and went back to bed.
Thank you, James Bailey, for providing additional clarity, Scriptures and editing on this post.
