Vision July 2023
Two visions telling of the same end.
Vision 1: (Short for time)
I was taken to walk along a coast in which I heard the sound of a woman in distress. When I looked there was a man who was smiling and waving me off as he proceeded to drown the woman.
In desperation I cried to the Lord… Let me help. He replied no I need you to see this. The woman drowned and I was asked to walk on…
Again I looked ahead and some children were playing in the street as cars whipped around the corner nearly missing them. A man stood and was instructing the children to play in traffic.
I cried out again in desperation to the Lord. As I tried to run to their aid. Lord help, them. He replied no I need you to see this. I again said no Lord I do not want to look these kids are going to die. Again I stood in terror as the children began to be hit by oncoming traffic.
This went on to happen in two other occasions with the same result.
Finally, the Lord brought me to the edge of the waters. The men I had seen before along with so many others stood in the waters.
I was instructed to look once more now as each man stood they would freeze on the person and their details were displayed.
Pastor so and so
Their ministry lasted from this year to this year and the Lord took it away
then the person would die… I cried once more and shouted Lord I do not want to see this to which a being said do not look away you need to see this..
then the Lord said “ I am tired of what these have done… I am tired of the garbage they have brought into my house… I am tired of them destroying my people… you need to see this because you cannot be the same” I awoke terrified
Vision 2: (short for time)
I was tasked to rescue a people from impending destruction.
When I entered the room there were two and they looked and said “you are here, finally you are here”
I didnt know them so I asked “what was going on”… they had been waiting for me to arrive to help them
I stated “I am not your hero, nor your deliverer, there is but one Lord and Deliverer” I looked and they had doubled… each time I turned and looked they multiplied 4,8,16,32,64,128
They said to me the heavens speak about you. Do you not know you were made for this.
I cried to the Lord for help as the walls were collapsing in that moment we were taken and set on a hill.
The Lord said “Look to your right” I felt the same desperation as before
I said no Lord please, I do not want to look.
He said “you need to see this now look…”
As I pleaded and said no Lord please I dont want to see this… a being whom I thought was at ear level spoke and said “do as the Lord your God has commanded”
As I turned to look I saw a field full of bodies piled high on top of another… Pastors of churches
The Lord spoke again and said “Now look to your right…”
I shuddered and said “no, Lord I get it, I don’t want to see this. Please Lord.”
He replied “look to the right.”
When I looked there was another field full of bodies that belonged to the churches of these pastors
The Lord spoke again saying, “ I am tired of the garbage these pastors have allowed to enter into my house… because of what they have done this sea of people are being lost. i will no longer tolerate their mistreatment of my people…you can never be the same you have been called to more, you have been called to be different”
The being that I had heard at ear level now spoke and said “look behind you.” I wanted to say no but thought it a lost argument so I looked
there behind me stood thousands of people each putting on an armor like I had never seen before.
I turned to the being and he was massive
he said look at your armor
I looked and realized it had been marked, was dented, but shone bright… the being said..
“These have waited for you… remember who your Father is… remember you were called to this… remember you were made for this”
I awoke again in a terror…
Its been almost a year of processing the vision and now is ready to be unpacked.
By the time this series is over you will be at a decision point and will have no choice but to align with the vision God has for Remnant Church or depart believing this vision is neither for the church or for you. Today we start to once more examine the vision God has for us as we prepare for the way ahead.

We have been called to Restore the Temple of the Living God; To Reinstitute Proper Worship For the Lord

Condition of the Church

W/O going into the series of the end of the age
Preserve time and only give a slight view
Church conditions (7 churches)
Ephesus= Abandoned their first love; removed as churches; tree of life
Pergamum= teaching the people to stumble; war against you; hidden manna, new name
Thyatira=tolerates Jezebel, sexual immorality, idolatrous practices; great tribulation; search the hearts and give according your work (repeat); authority over nations, rod of iron, the morning star
Sardis=think its alive but is dead; He will come against you like a thief in the night; clothed in white garments, book of life, confess your name before the Father.
Finally Laodicea; I have what I want I hav no need; Buy from me what your money cannot…
Revelation 3:20 ESV
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
all of this is not spoken to those who do not have salvation.
this is spoken to the people inside the church
this is what is now at play… the Lord is knocking and asking His body to come in (this hurts

God Desires to Dwell in His Temple

2 Corinthians 6:16 ESV
What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, “I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
oft quoted by Christians w/o understanding.
If we are His temple… then our task Remnant Church is as such

Restore the House of the Lord

2 Chronicles 29:3 ESV
In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord and repaired them.
This is the task set before
It is not an easy one and will brand us.
Not many will care for the message and many may run from this task…
As we will see this task requires us to not be man pleasers but to be fiercely about the Fathers heart
We are they that have been made ready for this revival that is about to take root it starts here and will permeate everything we touch… we must decide.
For me it has been made clear; I speak to you so you can speak to them, if you do not and they fail I will demand their blood from you
Church commit now your ways to the Lord the time for games has come to an end… His warning for us is made clear we cannot be like any other around us.
