“So I was very careful to make sure everything was secure and locked before we went to bed that night, and that is when I had the dream that an intruder was coming, and indeed he did come.”
“So I just want to encourage all of you to heed the warnings of the Holy Spirit, to be open and receptive, and to always be looking to connect.”
“For a lot of people when something like that happens, when there's an intruder on your property, you can become filled with fear and paranoia, but all I felt was graciousness.”
“I would rather be surrounded by murderers and thieves and have Jesus than to live in some secured compound with armed guards guarding me at night.”
Last night I was having a dream, and the Lord showed me an intruder approaching our house, and in the dream I yelled out, "Hey, what are you doing here?" It was such a powerful dream that my wife, who was having trouble sleeping and had been awake for a couple hours praying, heard me say it out loud even though I did not wake up.
Then a little bit later on I did wake up, and the sound machine was on really loud. It was making ocean noises and it was turned up all the way. I guess she was hoping it would help her sleep. I told her to turn it down because I couldn't hear anything that might be going on outside with it playing that loud, and I fell back asleep. Then a little bit later, I woke up to the dogs barking, and I was able to hear it and wake up since the sound machine had been turned down.
I went to check on it, and as soon as I look, there's the intruder coming right up to our house. Understand, we have a secured perimeter all the way around the house, so somebody had already broken in just to get that far to be able to walk up to our house. He took off when he knew I was there, and I prayed to Jesus and thanked Him for warning us, and I felt His Holy Spirit well up in me.
It was interesting, the night before I'd had a dream that a robber came and was able to get into the house because the door had been left unlocked. So I was very careful to make sure everything was secure and locked before we went to bed that night, and that is when I had the dream that an intruder was coming, and indeed he did come. It was too dark to see his face, but Jesus showed me his face in the dream. It's not somebody that I know, but if I saw them I might recognize them now.
So I just want to encourage all of you to heed the warnings of the Holy Spirit, to be open and receptive, and to always be looking to connect. I just felt so full of gratitude to be so close to Him that He's able to share and warn things like that with me.
For a lot of people when something like that happens, when there's an intruder on your property, you can become filled with fear and paranoia, but all I felt was graciousness. I just felt so thankful that I have Jesus with me. I would rather be surrounded by murderers and thieves and have Jesus than to live in some secured compound with armed guards guarding me at night.
So it's my prayer to each of you, as I said, that you're receptive, that you pray for it, and that you ask for it, to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit and to receive His warnings and His guidance in your life in all things. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
I would rather be surrounded by murderers and thieves and have Jesus than to live in some secured compound with armed guards guarding me at night.
