Judgment Begins at God's House

I dreamed I was in my kitchen, preparing the evening meal (feasting on the Word of God as the days are growing darker), when I saw lightning streak across the sky and there was a clap of thunder so loud that it shook the entire house. (This was the Lord's voice sounding an alarm to His saints; get prepared, the storm is at hand. {Psa.97:4} His lightnings lightened the world; The earth saw; and trembled. {114:7} Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob.) I went to the kitchen window and looked out and saw a large, dark storm cloud coming toward my house. As I stood looking at this cloud, I saw it start to form an unusual shape; it looked like a giant rolling pin. (A rolling pin is used to roll out and flatten out dough. I took this to mean judgment from the Lord and the dough represents the [leavened], apostate people of God getting ready to be judged (thrown in the oven) for their unrepentant sin.) (1Pe.4:17) For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if it begin first at us, what shall be the end of them that obey not the gospel of God? (Amo.3:2) You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will visit upon you all your iniquities. (2Th.1:8) rendering vengence to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

As I was meditating on this cloud, I heard a voice that appeared to be coming from over my head say, "Don't go out of the house until the storm is over". (The house here is Jesus in Whom we must abide by repentance and faith in His blood, which is our covering and our new life. This will be the Passover judgment which, according to type, comes before the wilderness tribulation, for the Old World Order must fall to the New World Order, as the covenant is made secretly, as is happening now and somewhat under the cover of the disasters themselves.) (Exo.12:22) And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side-posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. (23) For Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians (those in the land who are not Christ-like) ; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. (Isa.26:20) Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. (Heb.11:28) By faith he kept the passover (eating only Jesus, the unleavened bread of the Word), and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them. You could tell this was no ordinary thunderstorm; this was a storm of "thunder judgment" (God has spoken it; He will bring it to pass.) (Isa.46:11) calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country; yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed, I will also do it.

I immediately went into my prayer closet and began to pray for all of my family (UBM) and all of God's people (Church) in the path of this storm. (We see now that this Passover judgment will affect the lost and all of God's people. I suspect this will come on the head of the beast, the U.S., but will secondarily affect the world through loss of influence, trade and economy.) I knew this storm was going to destroy houses in my neighborhood. Many of God's people have not heeded His warnings. They mock the dreams and visions He has given to His people to warn them and to prepare them ahead of this storm. Their blood is on their own hands! (Eze.3:17) Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. (18) When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand ... (20) Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand. (The wicked leadership that does not hear and give the warnings will be held guilty of the blood of the saints. The faithful who have given the warning and been persecuted for it will be spared. Also, I believe this could mean that quakes and terrible side-effects, economic loss, etc., will judge the wicked who are gathered against the righteous. Remember, at the end of the Passover there was judgment at the Red Sea just before the wilderness tribulation.)

After the storm was over, I decided to go outside and take a look at the damage. Sure enough, as I went up and down my street, many houses were completely destroyed; I couldn't even see where their foundations had been. (This represents reprobation.) (Psa.11:3) If the foundations be destroyed, What can the righteous do? All evidence of those houses ever being there was completely gone (Jud.12) These are they who are hidden rocks in your love-feasts when they feast with you, shepherds that without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots. (Although "shepherds" in this text has no numeric pattern, they are certainly included with the rest of the "hidden" fakes among us who "feed themselves" and must be separated through reprobation.) This is the reward of the wicked who would not repent. They were searched out by the Lord and spiritually destroyed. This will also be the portion of the factious who have ignored and scoffed at the Lord's messengers and refuse to repent.

Some houses were badly damaged, but with a little elbow grease (the Lord's works) they could be completely restored. (Some of the factious people [and other sinners] will repent; they will come to recognize the mighty arm of the Lord in this storm and turn back to Him.) (Rev.2:5) Remember therefore whence thou art fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I come to thee, and will move thy candlestick out of its place, except thou repent. (We have received dreams of individuals repenting because of judgment.)

When I got back to my house (the house of God), a man with his entire family was sitting on my front porch. The father stood up when he saw me and came up to me and asked if he and his family could stay with me, as their home had been damaged by the storm and wasn't safe. (Their house had not been built upon "the Rock", Jesus). (Mat.7:24) Every one therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock, (25) and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and if fell not: for it was founded upon the rock. (This represents a group of people who will repent through this chastening.)

They noticed that my house had not been damaged by the storm. (Heb.12:27) And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain. Not so much as a shingle had been disturbed on my house. They knew there had to be something special about my house. It was the only house in the neighborhood that had no damage whatsoever. (I was abiding in the secret place of the Most High, where you will find all the promises of safety and provision. {Psa.121:7} Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; He will keep thy soul.) The true people of God will be easy to recognize by people who are truly seeking after the truth. You won't see any evidence of the curse on them. (Mat.7:20) Therefore by their fruits ye shall know them. (5:14) Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. ...(16) Even so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

I knew the Lord had specifically sent this family to me to care for them, as they were survivors of the storm. Praise the Lord! (The Lord is restoring His family and the firstfruits will play a large role in this restoration process.) My heart felt such compassion for this family. I eagerly invited them into my home and gave them food and some fresh, clean water. After they had all eaten, I drew each of them a bath and gave them all clean clothes, and prepared a place for them to sleep. (This represents giving them the cure: the food, water and washing of the Word and the clothes of obedience to it and the rest of faith in God.)

Beware Leaving the Narrow Road
John David Feagin - 06/11/2012

I rarely ever dream, but this morning I had a weird one. We were driving in what was probably a minivan of some sort (a remnant) on a mountain pass. (This represents the narrow road, the instructions of Scripture, formed by Mount Zion, our heavenly place in God.) On the sides of the road were lots of HUGE python-like snakes as big around as telephone poles. They were side by side and at the edges of the rocks. (Major deception awaits those who leave the narrow road.) I remember there were questions about whether they were mating (sowing the seed of their deception in hearts) or trying to get to cover from the coming winter storm (building their own kingdom in those who depart from scripture to support them in tribulation). Probably both (yes). We were safe in the vehicle (abiding in Jesus), but going outside would be dangerous. There were lots of them and they were HUGE. (It is more dangerous than ever to leave the Word now, or leave the house of abiding in Christ on the Passover.)

(This is a warning not to leave the narrow road, or the serpent spirits of strong delusion and the curse will attack you. The serpents poison is in their heads and that is where they poison people. I suspect the meaning here is larger than just beware of false prophecy through "a spirit of divination" as in Acts 16:16 where the Greek is actually "a spirit, a python". The larger warning is to not receive understanding from false spirits to corrupt the mind and resulting walk.)

Later today, I thought of the python or pythian spirit, but didn't remember what it was. I was thinking it was mega-grace churchianity that says do what you want, you'll be forgiven, no need to repent, as well as some of the weird stuff in false revivals. It may be that this sort of spirit is about to increase greatly, meaning false revivals, ministries, prophecies, manifestations, etc. All really pagan, demonic manifestations, rather than from God. (Amen to all of the above and more.) Inside the vehicle, we were safe, possibly meaning under God's protection.
