VISION: Measuring Up ----To A New Name!
Seen over a time in July 2006.
A distance away from the foot of a single large Mountain was a dusty place where I saw many people carrying stones back and forth. It looked like a valley, but there was no range of mountains, just this one large Mountain.
The people there were grumbling as they worked, grumbling as they talked, grumbling as they stood.
Grumble, grumble, grumble.
Suddenly the Lord appeared to them. He Stood on the very top of that single Mountain and was looking down at them, intently.
He Asked, “ Why are you all grumbling?”
All the people, when they saw Him and heard His Voice, in this dusty lowland, collected together in a group at the right side, and stood at an angle, but not face-to-face with the Lord. Had the Lord not appeared, they would have carried on grumbling, working, grumbling, and working.
From the rear of the Group, a man, bending to push through the crowd came to the front to answer the question the Lord had asked.
“We work all day long but for little wages”.
The Lord asked, “ What work do you do?”
So the Group all readily stepped forward, to demonstrate to Him. They picked up large stones from here, carried stones to there, and carried stones back. They really looked like they were in hard labour. They wanted to prove their point to the Lord. After all He should see their labor and what a pittance they were paid for it in return .
They had never run away from the work. They wanted to prove to the Lord that their wages were way below and totally disproportionate to the labour that they put in. Once He saw that, He would realize the grave injustice they were suffering, at His Hand.
The Lord asked, “ Now let’s see ….. What is the exact work that you’re paid for? What was the work description given to you, when you were originally hired?”
There was a great puzzlement. The group had to think awhile about that. It seemed that they had forgotten. It appeared that this Group had got so caught up in the grumbling; they had forgotten the original instructions pertaining to their work. None remembered their job description exactly.
“ Well,” said one of them after thinking for a bit, and pointing to where they stood, “ We were to carry these stones from here, and place them there”, he said, pointing yonder.
“ So? Have you been doing that?” Asked the Lord.
‘Yes,” they replied.
‘But I see that you carry stones there, as per My instruction, but then you carry back here, the same stones, which are not My instructions. So as I see it, you have not carried any stones for Me, but rather I Have been paying you though you did no work for me, so where’s the injustice?”
The Group was stunned. They stood still.
None of them remembered why they carried the stones back, instead of leaving them there.
Their constant grumbling had made them forget and lose focus from their work, and they unknowingly brought the stones right back to the point of origin. It appeared that they had added to their own work, and therefore in the Eyes of the Lord, had done no work at all.
They had tired themselves for nothing.
They looked truly shame-faced. They now realized to their great and utter shame that they had received wages for no work done. They were stunned at this realization.
Again, suddenly, while they were still stood there, shame-faced and in a state of shock, the Lord beckoned them to come up.
The Group was taken up and angels met them. They were directed to go shower under the Waterfall.
Next I saw, that this Group, which had comprised of all adult males and females, were now no more adults but had become little children.
They wore different color school uniforms.
Boys wore an off white shirt, and a tie to match the color of their shorts. The girls wore off white blouses, and a tie that matched the color of their skirts. So these Children seemed to have been divided into several smaller groups, by the different colors of their uniforms.
School had begun.
Children stood and watched as an Angel, with a measuring line appeared to be measuring an invisible building. A young boy wearing royal blue color shorts, stood at this end and occasionally he was allowed to hold the measuring line at this end. Angels wrote down the measurements, and the Children watched and listened attentively, learning how it was all done. It appeared that all day long they learnt only measurements, in a language they knew not, but were there to learn.
All the Children wore nametags, encased in crystal. None could read the writing yet, so they knew not what their names were.
This learning continued. It seemed like these Children would be there until the completion of their education.
One day, two angels were standing jotting down something, and one of the schoolboys went up to the angels and stood before them. He was not tall enough to see what they writing.
The two angels saw the little boy, read his nametag and they had a jolly good laugh. The boy was not offended, just puzzled, he asked the angels, “ Why do you laugh?”
An angel replied, “ It’s your name, that makes us laugh, you won’t understand, because you can’t read this language”.
Then the little boy, just threw back his head and laughed.
So now the angel asked, “ And why are you laughing?”
To which the boy replied, “ It’s like this. My name is in a language I don’t understand for now, but since I am here I’ll soon learn this language, and be able to read my own name and understand what it means, so I’m laughing now about that!”
I saw that as the vision progressed, the off white shirts/blouses were turning to pure white, and later became dazzling white.
No matter what color uniforms these batch of Children wore, they all had the same name,
“ REFORMED GRUMBLERS”.
Scripture: Book of Ezekiel.
As Ezekiel, this generation of Ezekiel types, will have measurements revealed, to them.
2Peter 3:14
Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless.
1 Peter 1:19
but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
Psalm 89: 14
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
Prov 21:3
To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
Jeremiah 50:7c
Lord, the habitation of justice,
The Lord, the hope of their fathers’.
Proverbs 16:8
Better is a little with righteousness,
Than vast revenues without justice.

Hi Swarna!
Some of the visions make me laugh because I can see myself in them!
God bless you,
Reformed Grumbler sherry!
Hi Sherry,
Wonderful! Sometimes in prayer, I say 'Lord, this is Reformed Grumbler here'............
God bless you Sherry. Thank you for reminding me of these visions.
Thanks for making me laugh!! God bless you from another Reformed Grumbler! lol
I was shown this name in a vision for me, personally ( not identical vision details )around 1990; the backdrop in that vision had been Bombay. So now as I read this 2006 vision in which this name is applicable to so many, I am reminded of that earlier vision. I'm having a double laugh. blessings
Into the Deep
By Mrs. Charles E. Cowman
"Launch out into the deep" (Luke 5:4).
How deep He does not say. The depth into which we launch will depend upon how perfectly we have given up the shore, and the greatness of our need, and the apprehension of our possibilities. The fish were to be found in the deep, not in the shallow water.
So with us; our needs are to be met in the deep things of God. We are to launch out into the deep of God's Word, which the Spirit can open up to us in such crystal fathomless meaning that the same words we have accepted in times past will have an ocean meaning in them, which renders their first meaning to us very shallow.
Into the deep of the Atonement, until Christ's precious blood is so illuminated by the Spirit that it becomes an omnipotent balm, and food and medicine for the soul and body.
Into the deep of the Father's will, until we apprehend it in its infinite minuteness and goodness, and its far-sweeping provision and care for us.
Into the deep of the Holy Spirit, until He becomes a bright, dazzling, sweet, fathomless summer sea, in which we bathe and bask and breathe, and lose ourselves and our sorrows in the calmness and peace of His everlasting presence.
Into the deep of the Holy Spirit, until He becomes a bright, marvelous answer to prayer, the most careful and tender guidance, the most thoughtful anticipation of our needs, the most accurate and supernatural shaping of our events.
Into the deep of God's purposes and coming kingdom, until the Lord's coming and His millennial reign are opened up to us; and beyond these the bright entrancing ages on ages unfold themselves, until the mental eye is dazed with light, and the heart flutters with inexpressible anticipations of its joy with Jesus and the glory to be revealed.
Into all these things, Jesus bids us launch. He made us and He made the deep, and to its fathomless depths He has fitted our longings and capabilities. --Soul Food
"Its streams the whole creation reach,
So plenteous is the store;
Enough for all, enough for each;
Enough forevermore."
The deep waters of the Holy Spirit are always accessible, because they are always proceeding. Will you not this day claim afresh to be immersed and drenched in these waters of life? The waters in Ezekiel's vision first of all oozed from under the doors of the temple. Then the man with the measuring line measured and found the waters to the ankles. Still further measurement, and they were waters to the knees. Once again they were measured and the waters were to the loins. Then they became waters to swim in--a river that could not be passed over. (Read Ezekiel 47). How far have we advanced into this river of life? The Holy Spirit would have a complete self effacement. Not merely ankle-deep, knee-deep, loin-deep, but self-deep. We ourselves hidden out of sight and bathed in this life-giving stream. Let go the shore-lines and launch out into the deep. Never forget, the Man with the measuring line is with us today. --J.G.M
