Several days prior to making the journey to England for the New Testament Church of God’s annual conference in Birmingham, I received a test from one of our youth leaders which resulted into a prophetic word and warning. There is a young woman who on several occasions experiences dreams and visions of events, which no one knows are coming and in her dreams she sees events before they occur. Two examples are as follows.
Several years ago while praying in the prayer barn, she saw in an open vision an earthquake that struck Washington, D.C. This was felt as far away as New York. Several weeks later the noted D.C. earthquake that cracked the top of the Washington Monument and toppled several stone angels at the National Cathedral occurred. In the second example, she saw in the spirit a major tornado north of Atlanta that would devastate an entire city which occurred only weeks later.
Then months ago she saw in a dream planes falling out of the sky. On Monday before my trip, I received a text from her that she had seen a plane that was attacked by terrorists. In the dream I said that it was the Russians that were behind it! When I was in England, I was stunned to turn on the television and see that Russian Separatist had used a surface to air missile and shot a commercial airliner out of the sky. I believe the Holy Spirit revealed tragedy to this young, praying woman.
Seeing into the future through a dream or a vision is major part of Joel’s prediction, that God would pour out His Spirit on sons and daughters, and this manifestation would be accompanied by dreams and visions. At OCI we have several youth that are being used by the Lord in this prophetic arena to see events weeks or months before they occur. This includes situations that may impact the nation, or the region in which they live. When we hear a person who has a reputation of hearing from the Lord and they do not “miss” their predictions, we should pay attention and remain prayerful as God uses dreams and visions to warn and inform His people!
Sincerely,
Perry Stone
