Vision: The Three Trains
26th April 2007
Today, I saw a very large Railway Station. It looked like any large Railway Station anywhere in Europe, any developed country, or any nation with a well-established rail network. I saw three different types of trains, on three different platforms. All out-bound trains.
I saw first, a train on which the passengers got on board willingly. They seemed a little sad but not unwilling to leave behind people and memories. They were aware that the Lord was on the train, and the passengers who boarded this train, knew that they must leave all this behind if they wanted to get to where the Lord wanted them to go. As they sat on the train, and the Lord was before them, they remembered fondly for just a brief moment, one last time, all relationships they were leaving behind.
These would migrate to better climes, they knew that even before they arrived at the Station.
I saw this train move quickly and within no time at all I saw the passengers reach their destination. On the top front of the train was written: The Lord's.
The place they had arrived at was luscious green all around. I was made to understand that this was the market-place. The passengers went about with divine speed and set up businesses, angels were sent to them with knowledge of witty inventions. I saw many with new patents in their hands. Strangely I saw some play the harp and were making money out of that. I was immediately reminded within the vision of Isaiah 23:17-18
All the money they earned they brought to the Lord, and they were given a humble wage from that money, the rest was not treasured or laid up but was for them that dwell before the Lord to eat sufficiently and for durable clothing.
Whilst a normal householder could say that they had a family of four to feed, these train passengers, had households of forty thousand and more to feed and clothe in durable clothing.
These passengers had arrived first to prepare the place for the needy who would surely soon follow.
The second train, the people weren't desirous to board, but they went resolved to do God's Will. They too knew that the Lord would be on the train. Angels held their hands as they embarked on the trains. The Lord's Presence could be seen throughout the length and breadth of this train. This train, looked strange. The windows were boarded up.
In a flash I was made to understand what this second train was for. It sent a chill down my spine.
Suddenly I yelled, " Holocaust!"
A strange thing was happening on the stationery train. There were no seats. People who went in, sat in two long rows on the floor, and had chains put on them, as soon as they sat down, which these passengers put on willingly. The chains had locks. Angels would visit each passenger and unlock the chains. Any who wanted to opt out of this journey, could leave the train. Most stayed put, but a few threw off the chains and disembarked. Some stood, outside the train door, wondering whether to jump back in again, or walk away. Suddenly the train moved, and these undecided ones, who stood by the door of the train, were dragged by their chains along the moving train. Those who remained on the train, though their chains were unlocked, continued in those chains. They could have left but chose not to. All they desired was that the Lord's Will and not theirs be done in their lives.
Those who had quickly removed their chains and walked to the exit, suddenly entered pitch darkness. In a flash I was shown that a multitude of chains fell on them and they were heavily laden with chains, the moment they entered the dark environment.
I could not see through the thick darkness into which they seemed to simply vanish.
At the end of the vision, I was taken to see the train up close and read the writing, which appeared faint from afar, but when I looked closely, it read: PERSECUTION. On the top front of the train was written: The Lord's.
The third train, a strange scenario was unfolding. Sheep dressed as if they were off to the Royal Ascot Derby, with hats and fine clothes, dainty food hampers, and slaves bowing low, in tow, were hurrying excitedly towards this train. There were a multitude of sheep. As these sheep started boarding the trains, men on the platforms, with a Book in their hands tried to convince them through the Book, not to embark on the train.
The sheep were adamant. They had been told that they would be exhibited in a show, before the multitudes. They had dressed in all their finery to look their best when exhibited. They kicked the men with the Book in their hands, in the shins and glanced at the train. The train admittedly did not look big enough to be holding special V.I.P. cabins for them all. As they remarked on the size of the train, the train officials, whispered that they had hidden cabins, that none could see, and all would surely be accommodated.
The sheep believed them and all hopped on the train. It was a shock to them to see that inside were cramped sheep pens. They were huddled together and it was terribly cramped. Their fancy luggage was thrown out of the windows. The sheep then realized they were being taken to be sold for slaughter.
The Lord was not on this train. On the top front of the train, there was nothing written.

Dear sister Swarnha,
I just read this vision today, and i was wanting to ask: the people who board the second train....do they have to board that train because they did not fully give all to Christ? Or is it just basedon who God chooses to suffer persecution.
I guess it's just a scary thought, knowing that i have still had some struggle giving all (though, i'm trying to get there). Also, knowing that thehour is late. Is there still a chance that we can get out of having to go through persecution, and board #1 instead?
Also, i want to give all to Christ, but have had some rebellion. I want to give that up. Please prayfor me.

Dear Anonymous,
Thank you for writing.
As I understood it, those who boarded the persecution train seemed aware of the route they were taking. But they had a choice. They could get off the train. The undecided ones were dragged by their chains, when the train moved. Those who chose to 'walk away', really walked into the darkness and more chains fell on them.
I did not get the impression that they could board train 1, if they so chose to do.Passengers of train 1&2 knew before hand what kind of train they were boarding. Passengers of train 3, were the deluded ones.
Anonymous, I will surely pray for you. God understands our frailties and if we yield our rebellion to Him, He Will Give us the Grace to confront the challenges that are before us.Jesus Christ, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, let us follow Him.
I will most certainly be praying for you. Let us choose LIFE.
love and blessings in Christ Jesus

Vision: Cackling Eagles’ New Weapon!
Vision: Cackling Eagles' New Weapon!
About two weeks ago, I saw a vision flash of the same eagles I had seen in Vision: Eagles Are Cackling.
http://visionsoftheseer.blogspot.com/search/label/Vision:%20Eagles%20Are%20Cackling
Eagles had been Given work to do, and were to go on their way to execute that work.
Next, I saw them in a dark grey sky. The lighting was poor.
I saw the eagles to the one side screaming , they looked fewer in number than when I had first seen them depart to their work. Where had the other eagles gone?
I heard the eagles on this side, screeching, yelling at the birds far across the sky from them.
Who were they fighting? I wondered. Was it vultures? Or crows?
To my surprise, I saw vultures and crows, gathered to the side, as spectators, giggling and chuckling.
If the eagles were'nt fighting these birds who then were they fighting? I was puzzled.
The exchange of sounds I heard from this side and across were harsh and vicious.
As I looked far across, I saw to my shock and horror that the opponent birds there were also eagles.
EAGLES WERE FIGHTING EAGLES!
The sounds were so strange. They were shouting and screeching at each other so hysterically, neither side could understand what was actually being said. There was much confusion, chaos, pandemonium in the air.
These cackling eagles were making a spectacle of themselves whilst the enemy birds watched.
It was a disturbing and ugly sight. I had never heard eagles make such unbearable sounds.
24th April 2007
The vision flashed again before my eyes.
It appeared that the fighting had not stopped but worsened since the last vision flash, about two weeks ago.
This time I saw the eagles had been using strange weapons. Twisted metal that looked like a cork-screw.
I asked, "What manner of weapons are these?"
I was told that these weapons were called 'Innuendos'.
They were originally swords, but the eagles had 'improvised', to make the weapons more deadly, and now the swords were twisted beyond recognition.
This time the eagles were no more fighting in two distinct groups but now it was a 'free for all', every cackling eagle in the two groups, had turned upon each other indiscriminately and was fighting with each other viciously, even drawing blood.
White Eagles were circling high above, watching this.
Drop your weapons! Drop your weapons! Drop your weapons!
I heard this instruction spoken to the cackling eagles from above.
The eagles were bloodied and many wings were almost bare of feathers, due to what could only be described as a 'dog-fight'. Their strength was depleted.
Due to the injuries given and recieved, many of these cackling eagles were disabled and would not be able to function, until healed. And all who stubbornly refused to heed the warnings from above, to drop their weapons, such would be allowed to fight till they fell from exhaustion or injury.
Then, white eagles, would take them to the sick-bay in the detention centre, where they would remain until they learnt not to twist the sword into the strange weapon called 'innuendo'.
Eagles bewarned..........Make not strange weapons for offense or for your own defense, out of the sword.
Drop your weapons! Drop your weapons! Drop your weapons!

Vision: The Flight Of Wisdom
20th April 2007
Late night.
VISION: THE FLIGHT OF WISDOM
I saw an arial view of America . A Brilliant Light was Hovering over the nation. A dense White Cloud surrounded this Light.
All above America looked so BRIGHT. The White Cloud Formation was dense but the Bright Light was not blocked out by the Cloud.
Within the vision, I was made to understand that this Bright Light was that of Wisdom.
I saw this Light, Swoop down upon the land of America , and in the Arms of this Brilliant Light were many pillars. They had been uprooted from the land of America , and taken away.
Next, after the pillars were removed, I saw gold cups and many gold vessels being removed and taken up, out of the land.
Next, I saw choice food being removed, in the same way.
Thereafter, I saw rich looking garments, also taken up, in the Arms of Wisdom, away from the land of America .
Next I saw paper money bundled up in cloth, held together in a knot, and the bundle flew away.
Late night.

Next, after the pillars were removed, I saw gold cups and many gold vessels being removed and taken up, out of the land.
Next, I saw choice food being removed, in the same way.
Thereafter, I saw rich looking garments, also taken up, in the Arms of Wisdom, away from the land of America .
Next I saw paper money bundled up in cloth, held together in a knot, and the bundle flew away.
Within the vision, I had been placed at a certain height so I could see clearly what was happening.
I was so upset seeing the pillars, the gold, the gold cups and gold vessels, the choice food, the rich garments, and then the capital take flight, I began to protest.
“Don’t Lord, don’t take all away,” I pleaded. “What about people down below, who must be pleading with you not to take all this away, won’t you listen to them?”
I was then shown what was happening down below.
Down below, people were pointing upward saying, “The Glory of the Lord, the Glory of the Lord”. They were jumping up and down in glee. But none understood why this Glory had Come.
None recognized Wisdom. None knew that Wisdom was dismantling her pillars and removing the spiritual and physical wealth from the land.
Rather the people down below, argued and quarreled one with another, “Did we not say, the Glory of God would come? See, there it is!”
The people rejoiced, they did some fancy dancing. They were rejoicing because they were now able to point to the prophets who had prophesied doom and gloom that the Glory of God was over America , contrary to all their prophecies. ‘See, I told you so, the Glory is STILL over America !’ they said boastfully.
None amongst the crowd gathered below, knew what this Brilliant Light had Come to Do.
They were looking up alright, even saw correctly, in a manner of speaking, but HAD NO UNDERSTANDING ABOUT WHAT THEY SAW, AND WHAT IT ALL MEANT.
I was now despairing, was there no one who understood? Was there no one to plead with God about this?
Then I was Shown many very simple looking folk. They were in farming clothes. I saw a very old man, who’d lost most of his teeth. Most of these were working alone, not in vast tracts of land, but the land one old man was cultivating, looked the size of an allotment.
These folk were not part of the crowd that had gathered to point to the Glory. These people were very simple and ordinary looking, by the world’s standards. They stood not in this place, with the crowds, they were away, working on the land.
One man was working with his spade, driving it into the ground, when suddenly, he understood in his spirit what was truly happening. He leaned on his spade, stopped his work and bowed down his head and worshipped God. No matter where all the farm-workers were, they all did the same, wherever they stood, at work.
Then, these farm-workers ( though they knew not the others who were like them in the land) , slowly gathered together, one by one, led by the Spirit, and joined the man, I saw with the spade.
(I was stunned when I was shown in a flash, how few and scattered such were in the land.)
There was absolute silence, as these farm-workers all bowed down to worship. That which they had known would happen, had happened.
They neither wept nor gloated, nor made any sounds. They simply bowed down their heads and worshipped.
For a brief moment I wondered why if these men had understood, that Wisdom was dismantling the pillars and removing all the wealth from the land, these had not pleaded before God NOT TO DO SO.
I was made to understand that God had Told them not to plead for this.

Shalom Swarna Jha,
I was reminded of the parable of the talents as I read your vision...
Matthew 25:
In verse 29 we read... For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will be [f]furnished richly so that he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.
Truly, you have heard and seen from the Father...
Blessings to you and yours,

Thank you for sharing this with me. The last few days have felt so difficult. I thought of Jeremiah and the book of lamentations this morning. I thought of where the poor said how can we sing a song when we're afflicted like this. We're told in scripture God does nothing without first revealing it. He's revealing His heart. He's saying what's going on. I read Ezekiel 8 again the other day. He told Ezekiel to tell the guilty ones He knew what they were doing. God said to Ezekiel tell them but I'll tell you now they won't listen to you.
The other day I thought of Miciah again. The King said tell me Miciah what the Lord is saying regarding me. Miciah told the King what the Lord was saying about the King. The King then ordered someone to slap the mouth of Miciah. Miciah may have known like Ezekiel the King was not going to listen to the words of God.
I was listening to Pastor David Wilkerson online this morning, and he spoke about the ten lepers and he said there was only one of the ten that thanked Jesus. So nine people didn't bother for whatever reason. I want to be like that one who did bother.
Much love
Jackie

Hi Swarna,
I really was pleased to see the message below. Of all you have had, it was simple and clear and exactly to the point.
In fact, it is part of what I was praying about.
There are a couple of "camps" here in the Christian church:
1) "God's gonna smack the wicked US down and hard and we deserve it and we're all gonna die and the world will be better for it--good riddance!"
2) "The best is yet to come--it's just going to get better and better and better and you haven't seen anything yet!"
Often when you get in charismatic groups you will hear one of these two "prophecies".
Neither--I believe reflects God's heart--yet they are ardently prophesied.
Ironically, each group despises the message of the other.So when you mentioned people saying, “Did we not say, the Glory of God would come? See, there it is!”, I can see how that relates to the second group's viewpoint.Now they have two approaches about how to accomplish what they think their vision dictates. For the first group: "Repent of wickedness--beat yourself in self-condemnation and loathing and beg God for undeserved mercy! Shriek and howl and shout to all to do the same!"For the second group: "Praise and worship louder and more forcefully! Prophesy even greater things! Shout it all the louder and laugh and dance with joy and abandon!"
Now there is what I will call a third camp--the ones who think neither of these things but simply wait on the Lord for His answer--they don't speak of themselves but only what they are shown. They are the "farmers", the true prophets who actually have heard from the Lord. They are despised or disregarded by both of the other groups. They won't shout or groan when told nor will they agree to be in agreement. They simply wait. Their unwillingness to "agree" makes them immediately distrusted by the two previous groups and they are generally held in scorn (by the second group) for "not being free enough" or (by the first) group "not being holy enough".
So in a church or movement dominated or guided by one of the first two groups, this third group will not be heard. Their views will not be sought and they will be restrained from any public involvement. They don't get heard by "the crowds" for those are the ones the first two groups covet as their own.
As regarding what you wrote, I am so pleased to see your concern for the people here. I have recently posted on revival school that crowing for judgment on the US is a wrong heart and all need to be concerned for it and themselves.What you have said here is exactly as it is. Many are asleep with no oil in their lanterns yet they think they are wise and alert. Worse, they would assault or mock any who from compassion would seek to warn them.
Like your farmers, I have a sad realization that I cannot ask that we be spared trouble. Like you, I grieve and wish we could be. As with your farmers, all I can do is bow my head and thank God He is there and depend on him to save us from ourselves, despite ourselves.As I have said all along, If I could ask God for one thing, it would be for mercy for us. But I believe it is his mercy that leads us to your vision.
What I was struggling with these past weeks--in light of the above--was the question, "Lord, should I be more like either of these two groups? Am I not enough of one or the other?" I believe I just got a response which was to "stay a farmer" (to borrow your imagery).. So what you sent is heartening. I genuinely see the Lord in it fully and your response to it is so good to see.
Your brother,David

I don't remember which book of prophecy it was that I read about the Lord instructing not to pray for the destruction and taking away of blessings to certain peoples but it was there. This vision is very insightful. I do not pray for God not to bring about certain things that are coming. I simply thank Him for His wisdom in doing whatever it is that needs to be done.
Your vision is accurate regarding the few that will be in alignment with the will of God and His judgements on us as a people. There is no revival that the church is praying for. Revival is now an individual happening and only with those who seek it in the manner which God wants to give it. Spiritual revival that gives wisdom and discernment. Yes, there is Glory to God, but not what the church, the rich and misguided see it as. The Glory to God stems directly from His judgements, the removal of the falseness that the churches teach, the revealing of His truths regarding tolerance and acceptance among the churches. As is stated in 2 Thessalonians, He will give them over to great delusions because they delight in evil. Therefore, He removes His wisdom because of poor stewardship and abuse of the wisdom He was willing to give any who asked.
The farmers? I would have to say that these are the remnants of the church. Those that have understanding of sowing the seed and continuing to work toward the Kingdom of God in the righteous manner that Christ taught not the manner in which man has decided to indoctrinate into the church.
Thank you for sending this to me. Passing it on.
Love and blessings to you Swarna

I wanted to comment on what David said in reply to Swarn's recent vision and also his post comments as well.
Sherry Mason
Dear David,
A friend forwarded your comments on Swarna's last posted vision. I was really glad to read your words. They had a wisdom to them that we needed to hear.
About your "testimony". Didn't Jesus say he needed show Paul all that he would suffer for His name's sake (Acts 9:15 I think). I know people don't like to speak of suffering in relation to serving God.
When I was a new christian (I was 28 years old and not "raised" in the church system) I had a dream in which a man gave me a transparent box (aboutthe size of a small jewelry box)and upon opening it, I saw that it was divided into compartments. One compartment had small stars that shone with golden glory and were so beautiful that I was drawn to them and the other compartments had unidentified blue, rubbery squiggley things (sounds weird I know) which were totally unappealing. I was told I was to eat these objects.
I wanted to eat the stars first but I was told that I had to eat the other items before I could have the stars. As I stuck them in my mouth and began to chew (they were very difficult to chew...very rubbery) small voices came out of the items in my mouth. With each chew they said "Sorrow, tears, suffering". This was most unpleasant but I continued to chew because I wanted the little golden stars that shone.
I knew I had to consume all the other items first. Upon awakening I did not understand much because I was unfamiliar with dreams and the way God uses them at that time. But I do understand it now. I understand that the stars are His glory and that I could not have that until I had been through the other first. Sorrow, tears and suffering are unpleasant but in my case they were necessary to "shape" me into what He wanted me to be. Did not Jesus tells James and John that they must drink of the cup He drank from? That cup (if I understand correctly) was a cup of suffering.
Some would accuse, some would guffaw, some would say "you're crazy!" My desire is that if I must suffer, let me not suffer for my own foolishnesses but let it be that I suffer for the sake of righteousness.
God Bless

Swarna,Thank you so much for your response. I have enclosed an event that occured this past evening and night for you because I felt it applied to your vision and to David's comments. If you see anything further...I would be interested in hearing your comments.
Sherry Mason
I am not sure how to communicate this without seeming long and involved but I believe this all connects with Swarna's vision (which I sent out) about the glory of God and the lack of understanding among many as to the real purpose of God's glory for this country.
I had a moment last night where I was in tears over loving God. This is something that He does...the Spirit of God comes on you and you are overwhelmed with how Good He is and all the love that you possess wells up inside you toward Him. Later this led to prayer. At 3:00AM I was praying for many things but also thanking God for every moment, every tear, all the pain I have endured because it brought me to Him. In the midst of this I heard that still small voice quite clearly say "Daniel 11".
I was in bed, did not particularly want to turn on the light and read but I decided I needed to so I got up, got my bible and then a peculiar thing happened...I looked out the window before I began to read and it was if the outdoors had been illuminated with some kind of supernatural light and as I "obeyed" and got my bible to read, the light "went". I was not aware of the light until I saw it "go". It wasn't a pinpoint of light, it was diffused light that had been a part of the entire area I could see outside my window. I felt as though the light had been there because perhaps an angel was there and whispered Daniel 11 to me and then once it's purpose was accomplished, it left taking it's light with it.
I began to read. Daniel 11 is about the understanding of the vision that was given Daniel for the end times and the antichrist...but starting in verse 32 was what got my attention...(New American Standard)...
32"By smooth words he will turn to godlessness those who act wickedly toward the covenant, but the people who know their God will display strength and take action.33" Those who have insight among the people will give understanding to the many; yet they will fall by sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder for many days.34"Now when they fall they will be granted a little help, and many will join with them in hypocrisy.35"Some of those who have insight will fall, in order to refine, purge and make them pure until the end time; because it is still to come at the appointed time.
This whole passage reminded me of Swarna's vision and the "few" who had understanding of what God was doing and it also made me think of all the "suffering" and "pain" that the few people I am in "fellowship" with have gone through and are going through. We have all understood that it was for our "purification
That it seems many of us are "failures" in the eyes of the world or we are "renegades" because we have left the church system...etc. and yet we feel that we have some small understanding and we are striving for more understanding in what is happening in "God's timing and purposes". We have not fit in as a part of the "normal" people or even part of the "prayer movement" among those who coordinate mass prayer over the whole nation because we could not agree with some things and we could not go along with the "crowd" because we saw something different. We just didn't fit. So...why??? We hope it is because God is purifying us...we want to be pure and we want to be God's and His alone...if it means we suffer then we suffer and we would not trade it if it means we hear and see God clearly with an understanding of what He is doing. This is not pride on our part...this is desparation for reality, for truth, for the only truth otherwise who would "choose" this type of life???
So...I felt the "call" to read Daniel 11 was a confirmation of Swarna's vision and David's remarks. But I also wonder if perhaps it is a statement of where we are in God's "timeframe" of events.
This morning I woke up and was singing the song "Time in a Bottle"If I could save Time in a bottleThe first thing that I'd like to doIs to save every dayTil Eternity passes awayJust to spend them with youIf I could make days last foreverIf words could make wishes come trueI'd save every day like a treasure and then,Again, I would spend them with youCHORUS:But there never seems to be enough timeTo do the things you want to doOnce you find themI've looked around enough to knowThat you're the one I want to goThrough time I had a box just for wishesAnd dreams that had never come trueThe box would be emptyExcept for the Of how they were answered by you(Repeat Chorus)
This song was sung at a lot of weddings at the time it first came out. It is a song of the pain and everything we've been through but we finally found the "thing we want to do" and that is to belong to Him completely. To love Him and to know His love...it is a song of the Divine Marriage. This really is a love song from us to Him and He to us. It has ALL been worth it...every moment lived, every tear wept, every sorrow experienced, every pain felt...
I wish I could tell ALL of what I "see" being put together but that seems impossible...so I hope I have, at lease somewhat clearly, communicated to you with some understanding of the time we are in and the season.
I feel the dream I had night before last also corresponds with this. The OLD WOMAN is dead and we are about to receive our inheritance. All of us in the dream had been in poverty but we were being given provision until the inheritance could be processed and distributed. We have made it through this very difficult time and are coming up on the other side just when it seemed we were drawing our last breath.

Late night.
VISION: THE FLIGHT OF WISDOM
I saw an arial view of America . A Brilliant Light was Hovering over the nation. A dense White Cloud surrounded this Light.
All above America looked so BRIGHT. The White Cloud Formation was dense but the Bright Light was not blocked out by the Cloud.
Within the vision, I was made to understand that this Bright Light was that of Wisdom.
I saw this Light, Swoop down upon the land of America , and in the Arms of this Brilliant Light were many pillars. They had been uprooted from the land of America , and taken away.
Next, after the pillars were removed, I saw gold cups and many gold vessels being removed and taken up, out of the land.
Next, I saw choice food being removed, in the same way.
Thereafter, I saw rich looking garments, also taken up, in the Arms of Wisdom, away from the land of America .
Next I saw paper money bundled up in cloth, held together in a knot, and the bundle flew away.
Within the vision, I had been placed at a certain height so I could see clearly what was happening.
I was so upset seeing the pillars, the gold, the gold cups and gold vessels, the choice food, the rich garments, and then the capital take flight, I began to protest.
“Don’t Lord, don’t take all away,” I pleaded. “What about people down below, who must be pleading with you not to take all this away, won’t you listen to them?”
I was then shown what was happening down below.
Down below, people were pointing upward saying, “The Glory of the Lord, the Glory of the Lord”. They were jumping up and down in glee. But none understood why this Glory had Come.
None recognized Wisdom. None knew that Wisdom was dismantling her pillars and removing the spiritual and physical wealth from the land.
Rather the people down below, argued and quarreled one with another, “Did we not say, the Glory of God would come? See, there it is!”
The people rejoiced, they did some fancy dancing. They were rejoicing because they were now able to point to the prophets who had prophesied doom and gloom that the Glory of God was over America , contrary to all their prophecies. ‘See, I told you so, the Glory is STILL over America !’ they said boastfully.
None amongst the crowd gathered below, knew what this Brilliant Light had Come to Do.
They were looking up alright, even saw correctly, in a manner of speaking, but HAD NO UNDERSTANDING ABOUT WHAT THEY SAW, AND WHAT IT ALL MEANT.
I was now despairing, was there no one who understood? Was there no one to plead with God about this?
Then I was Shown many very simple looking folk. They were in farming clothes. I saw a very old man, who’d lost most of his teeth. Most of these were working alone, not in vast tracts of land, but the land one old man was cultivating, looked the size of an allotment.
These folk were not part of the crowd that had gathered to point to the Glory. These people were very simple and ordinary looking, by the world’s standards. They stood not in this place, with the crowds, they were away, working on the land.
One man was working with his spade, driving it into the ground, when suddenly, he understood in his spirit what was truly happening. He leaned on his spade, stopped his work and bowed down his head and worshipped God. No matter where all the farm-workers were, they all did the same, wherever they stood, at work.
Then, these farm-workers ( though they knew not the others who were like them in the land) , slowly gathered together, one by one, led by the Spirit, and joined the man, I saw with the spade.
(I was stunned when I was shown in a flash, how few and scattered such were in the land.)
There was absolute silence, as these farm-workers all bowed down to worship. That which they had known would happen, had happened.
They neither wept nor gloated, nor made any sounds. They simply bowed down their heads and worshipped.
For a brief moment I wondered why if these men had understood, that Wisdom was dismantling the pillars and removing all the wealth from the land, these had not pleaded before God NOT TO DO SO.
I was made to understand that God had Told them not to plead for this.

Shalom Swarna Jha,
I was reminded of the parable of the talents as I read your vision...
Matthew 25:
In verse 29 we read... For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will be [f]furnished richly so that he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.
Truly, you have heard and seen from the Father...
Blessings to you and yours,

There are a couple of "camps" here in the Christian church:
1) "God's gonna smack the wicked US down and hard and we deserve it and we're all gonna die and the world will be better for it--good riddance!"

32"By smooth words he will turn to godlessness those who act wickedly toward the covenant, but the people who know their God will display strength and take action.33" Those who have insight among the people will give understanding to the many; yet they will fall by sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder for many days.34"Now when they fall they will be granted a little help, and many will join with them in hypocrisy.35"Some of those who have insight will fall, in order to refine, purge and make them pure until the end time; because it is still to come at the appointed time.
This whole passage reminded me of Swarna's vision and the "few" who had understanding of what God was doing and it also made me think of all the "suffering" and "pain" that the few people I am in "fellowship" with have gone through and are going through. We have all understood that it was for our "purification
That it seems many of us are "failures" in the eyes of the world or we are "renegades" because we have left the church system...etc. and yet we feel that we have some small understanding and we are striving for more understanding in what is happening in "God's timing and purposes". We have not fit in as a part of the "normal" people or even part of the "prayer movement" among those who coordinate mass prayer over the whole nation because we could not agree with some things and we could not go along with the "crowd" because we saw something different. We just didn't fit. So...why??? We hope it is because God is purifying us...we want to be pure and we want to be God's and His alone...if it means we suffer then we suffer and we would not trade it if it means we hear and see God clearly with an understanding of what He is doing. This is not pride on our part...this is desparation for reality, for truth, for the only truth otherwise who would "choose" this type of life???
So...I felt the "call" to read Daniel 11 was a confirmation of Swarna's vision and David's remarks. But I also wonder if perhaps it is a statement of where we are in God's "timeframe" of events.
This morning I woke up and was singing the song "Time in a Bottle"If I could save Time in a bottleThe first thing that I'd like to doIs to save every dayTil Eternity passes awayJust to spend them with youIf I could make days last foreverIf words could make wishes come trueI'd save every day like a treasure and then,Again, I would spend them with youCHORUS:But there never seems to be enough timeTo do the things you want to doOnce you find themI've looked around enough to knowThat you're the one I want to goThrough time I had a box just for wishesAnd dreams that had never come trueThe box would be emptyExcept for the Of how they were answered by you(Repeat Chorus)
This song was sung at a lot of weddings at the time it first came out. It is a song of the pain and everything we've been through but we finally found the "thing we want to do" and that is to belong to Him completely. To love Him and to know His love...it is a song of the Divine Marriage. This really is a love song from us to Him and He to us. It has ALL been worth it...every moment lived, every tear wept, every sorrow experienced, every pain felt...
I wish I could tell ALL of what I "see" being put together but that seems impossible...so I hope I have, at lease somewhat clearly, communicated to you with some understanding of the time we are in and the season.
I feel the dream I had night before last also corresponds with this. The OLD WOMAN is dead and we are about to receive our inheritance. All of us in the dream had been in poverty but we were being given provision until the inheritance could be processed and distributed. We have made it through this very difficult time and are coming up on the other side just when it seemed we were drawing our last breath.

Vision: Eagles-Inspection Day-Repost
VISION: EAGLES! INSPECTION DAY!
21.3.07
I saw this vision a few days ago. As it keeps recurring, I feel led to share it here.
I saw, up above, a Large Crystal Eagle, that had a long row of what looked like large precious diamonds/crystals, in each of it’s Wings. This Crystal Eagle covered the expanse of all that was before me and beyond. I understood as the vision unfolded that this Crystal Eagle picked up the faintest light on earth and sent via these diamonds/crystals, more light back multiplied many fold. I also saw that at Will, this Large Crystal Eagle would suddenly pick a dark area on the earth and flood it with brilliant Light. Equally if little lights were dangerously wavering, when inspite of having been given time to improve, they ought not to have been, either so little or wavering, the Large Crystal Eagle, could take away even the little light they had and plunge the place in darkness.
The Crystal Eagle with it’s Wings Spread wide, was Watching all that transpiring.
I saw, on earth, four crystal eagles first lined up in the east, and then they flew each to their position, in the four corners of the earth. They too had similar wings to the Large Crystal Eagle, but were much less than a speck in size. But looking at them from earth, they looked large. They silently watched all that was occurring. Who were they? I wondered in the vision. I was then reminded of the Word from Zechariah 1: 18-20, about the four skilled craftsmen.
There was great silence. It was the time for all eagles to read the silence.
Noiselessly, a multitude of varied eagles appeared in the skies.
Eight bejeweled eagles, with large rounded wings, covered the expanse. I understood that these eagles once had pock-marks, all over, but as they flew higher and higher and soared, to their maximum, they became bejeweled, and their wings more rounded.
It seemed that only the bejeweled eagles knew of the crystal eagles and where each was positioned. They, like the crystal eagles, could tell, by just seeing the texture and color of other eagles’ wings, where they’d been flying. They could even assess their weight and the load weight of treasures that these eagles carried, and the type of current message. The crystal eagles could do this immediately. The bejeweled eagles could accomplish the same task, ‘quickly’, but not immediately.
Below them were tiers and tiers of varied types of eagles. The hues, colors and textures, size, weight, of the eagles changed with the nature of function/s they performed. There were ever changing colors / weight, which the eagles took on, depending on the seriousness or lightness of the message entrusted to them by the Large Crystal Eagle.
Their true colors could only be seen, when they were simply basking in the air and light, awaiting a message, from The Large Crystal Eagle.
The top row was multi-colored eagles. These were the Inspectors. They had excellent vision and could see the minutest detail of the condition of eagles even from such great height. They not only inspected the condition of the eagles, down below, but also the buildings and the lay of the land. But this they could see only when the Large Crystal Eagle commissioned them to conduct the Inspection, at any particular moment in time. Only the bejeweled and four crystal eagles were equipped to see the condition of the eagles at any time. Their function was to see what the Large Crystal Eagle Saw even when it was not Inspection Time. A unique skill that the crystal eagles had was that they , if called to do so, were used to standing still and waiting, in the place appointed to them, even for what seemed like excruciating long times. The bejeweled eagles when called to wait hovered under the Light and Air, emanating from the Large Crystal Eagle. Their jewels were precious and could only be best preserved and displayed in this way.
Below the multi-colored eagles, in a multitude of tiers, reaching way below, were varied types of eagles. I saw one type of eagle which had, on each wing, what looked like a blade we see on ceiling fans. With these blades under their wings, these eagles could stir a storm if need be.
The lowest tier in the south was no tier at all. It was so disorderly. The ordinary brown eagles weren’t even flying seriously. Their feathers were rough and unkempt. Their brown color was more like an earth mud brown. They looked scattered. Many were perched on branches. Above them were gray and white eagles with brown speckles. The brown eagles were cackling. They were the ‘eaglets’, who had no desire to change by soaring. In fact, they did not know about the wonderful effects of soaring. They did not know that one part of the Inspection tour of the multi-colored eagles initiated by the Large Crystal Eagle, dealt with an assignment titled “Operation Fade-Out”. All those found sorely inept and lacking in obedience and discipline, and unwilling to change, were to be ‘faded out’ and replaced.
The brown eagles down below were totally unaware that an inspection of eagles was underway. They had not learnt in all their time as eagles, how to read the silence. Oblivious, they carried on in any activity that caught their fancy. Suddenly, they heard a voice coming from one who was standing in a dusty barren place, down below. The man was beckoning to the brown eagles, “Hey you! Come down!
Flattered, many eagles immediately left the skies, and descended upon the ground. They had never been so obedient even to the call of the eagles above them, but showed great submission to the man. This man wanted them to model on stage. Overwhelmed, they twirled, and spread wide their wings to all the spectators.
There were enemy spies in the sky. These were the watchman of the enemy, who diligently waited for any eagle to drop height. That then brought eagles into their jurisdiction.
The brown eagles had dropped height.
Now I heard the increasing and incessant cackling of these brown eagles. It was noisy.
The eagles spread their wings and down fell many pearls, the ground was littered with pearls.
The spectators were treading on these pearls and skating on them, laughing, giggling, and then much later mocking.
The enemy spies, lured the eagles individually into studios and asked the brown eagles to ‘expose’ for them. The brown eagles, were flattered with all this attention, as no other eagles, that flew above them ever gave them any. They now started getting feelings they’d never had before. They never knew that being an eagle was considered by so many as glamorous.
The enemy spies, who when they were visible, looked like owls, were gleefully watching all that transpired. The photographs they took, gave them an indication, as to what and where the eagles’ treasures lay. This helped them to rob and steal from the eagles, and kill them, when it suited them.
As the brown eagles, spread their wings wide, like Can-Can girls, and stood tip toe, and posed coyly, the enemy ‘ cameraman ‘ took a picture. The flash light off the camera hit hard the wings of the brown eagles, and the treasures which were stored in the lower quarter portion of their wings, became motionless. This strange light had a devastating effect on the eagles, as their entire wings now became ineffective, and stiff. Some could just barely walk. Others remained stuck in a ‘frozen pose’.
After a while of modeling, the eagles lost their novelty-value, in the eyes of the spectators. The man, who had ordered them down from the skies, now said to them, “you are servants, right? Well then serve us.” But this was a different type of service that they were inducted into. I saw the eagles that could barely walk, in drive-in kind of cafes serving alongside parrot waiters.
The parrots would go and hear the eagles individually, and repeat loudly what they had heard, to others. Many believed that parrots spoke an original message. The eagles were unaware that this was happening. The brown ‘eaglets’ did not know the source of the parrots’ knowledge. Soon, these eagles were disillusioned, “What’s the use of being an eagle, if even parrots know and say the same as us”. Soon there was an air of gross disillusionment and dissatisfaction. Brown eagles were now having a lot of ‘feelings’ they’d never had before.
The gray and white eagles, with brown speckles, looked aghast at what was going on.
From high up above, beginning in the west, the multi-colored eagles were quietly surveying the state of all eagles, and everything they saw appeared as pictures, on the open skies. The multi-colored eagles, had seen sores under the wings of some eagles ( not the brown eagles, but others) .Every section in the sky-display showed the condition of the eagles, next below was listed the nature of their sickness, and at the bottom, the cure. Other columns similarly, dealt with buildings and the lay of the land. The four crystal eagles quietly monitored all that appeared on the sky screen. Where there was error, if any, or lack of clarification they would swoop on the display, and cover it ever so gently with corrections, clarification. This part was gently and most graciously covered with a thin white cloud, so it looked more highlighted, than erased or overwritten.
Down below, many brown eagles fell off the edge of where they were standing, and some went into deep drunken sleep. When the gray and white eagles, with brown speckles, with great urgency, tried to wake them up, blurry eyed, these brown eagles would say, “hey let me sleep, don’t you know last night was a Saturday night, a party night.”
The eagles supervising them now realized that many such eagles, those sleeping and those with stiff wings ( who fell off the edge, as they stood in that position for a long time ), were incapable of flying. They quickly reported it above, they did not want to stay gray and white with brown speckles eagles. They wanted to soar.
It appeared that the higher the eagles soared their colors and wing textures and shape changed. If any were speckled, the higher they flew, the air and light, dealt with all such lacks and weaknesses, in the appearance of the eagles. This was promotion for eagles.
The nature of the function and message entrusted to eagles, had a definite effect on their hues /weight and overall appearance.
The converse was also true, as the eagles dropped height, colors, textures, and weights changed, and again the original flaws would show, but would be worse than at their beginning. This was demotion for eagles, which would culminate in suspension of service, if eagles changed not.
In fact the crystal eagles and the bejeweled eagles from the hues, appearance and weight, could tell if the eagles were promoted or demoted ones. They could tell from a long way off what type of message The Large Crystal Eagle had entrusted them with. All these skills helped the senior eagles to function smoothly, and ensure that the eagle messengers did their job. The messages that were incompletely conveyed or failed to be conveyed, by other eagles, were conveyed by the bejeweled eagles, and if the bejeweled were unable to complete the task, the crystal eagles would do it. So it appeared that no message remained undelivered, and no work remained undone.
There was always constant change taking place high up in the skies, and only those who soared very high, constantly watching, understood the flowing changes, depicted.
Sadly, the brown eagles, even when they had flown, never knew this, and what they knew, they forgot. They were unaware that high up above were those who once were ordinary brown eagles, but because they chose to fly high, their color and texture became so deep and in the light, the edge of their feathers looked like a shade of burgundy. These ‘brown eaglets’, had been given just one instruction, do not talk to strangers. Had they obeyed they would have immediately in the next level of their training, understood what learning to read the silence meant, and would have been prepared for the Inspection.
But now, many had their service suspended, and new eagles replaced them. You see, the eagles who flew above the level of the brown eagles, all broadly knew that the Lord had ordained that there always be a specified number of soaring eagles in the sky, at any given time. The crystal eagles had been instructed, by the Large Crystal Eagle what that number should be, and they would report the need to the Large Crystal Eagle, and the skies were immediately replenished.
Learning from the experience of the brown eagles, who like Hezekiah immaturely and boastfully exposed all his treasures to the envoys from Babylon, ( 2 Kings 12-16) , a request was sent by the four crystal eagles that the lower quarter of the wings of the eagles that carried their personal treasures, which was as food to them in long arduous journeys, be made invisible, so none could see, and the enemy could not have access to it. This was granted. But this invisibility occurred only when the eagles soared at great heights.
The treasures were always meant to be shared/shown in wisdom, to only those to whom The Large Crystal Eagle directed. And at no time were all the treasures eagles were given, ever meant to be displayed to all or exhibited in museums. Whatever was to be shown, even to those authorized to see, had to be done in a flash and not in intricate detail. At no time were eagles to be found treasure-less. Those who had more could show more, and yet have enough for them, but those who had less, had nothing for their own strengthening, if they displayed all. As all they had were shallow reserves. Hence, eagles were always encouraged to soar high, to amass greater treasures, so that they had enough for others and themselves.
These brown eagles, who were making a spectacle of themselves, it seemed had lost their discernment, by their unwise choices.
As they soared new heights, all eagles would find changes in their entire body and structure, but if they lost height, everything would unravel, and they would in effect like driving in reverse, be returned to their old colors, textures, and ways, but this time it would be worse for them, as what they had initially, came from immaturity and inexperience, but now that they chose to willfully go into ‘reverse gear’, they would be judged differently.
In what condition will you eagles be found at the Inspection? Posing nude for the envoys from Babylon, or repenting and soaring high, seeking to be changed into godly rich colors, textures, and weight?

Jeremiah 31:32-40 (New International Version)
32 It will not be like the covenant I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them, " declares the LORD. 33 "This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel
after that time," declares the LORD. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. 34 No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest," declares the LORD. "For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." 35 This is what the LORD says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the LORD Almighty is his name: 36 "Only if these decrees vanish from my sight," declares the LORD, "will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before me." 37 This is what the LORD says: "Only if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done," declares the LORD.
38 "The days are coming," declares the LORD, "when this city will be rebuilt for me from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate. 39 The measuring line will stretch from there straight to the hill of Gareb and then turn to Goah. 40 The whole valley where dead bodies and ashes are thrown, and all the terraces out to the Kidron Valley on the east as far as the corner of the Horse Gate, will be holy to the LORD. The city will never again be uprooted or demolished."

"For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." 35 This is what the LORD says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the LORD Almighty is his name: 36 "Only if these decrees vanish from my sight," declares the LORD, "will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before me." 37 This is what the LORD says: "Only if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done," declares the LORD.
38 "The days are coming," declares the LORD, "when this city will be rebuilt for me from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate. 39 The measuring line will stretch from there straight to the hill of Gareb and then turn to Goah. 40 The whole valley where dead bodies and ashes are thrown, and all the terraces out to the Kidron Valley on the east as far as the corner of the Horse Gate, will be holy to the LORD. The city will never again be uprooted or demolished."
Jeremiah 32:27 (New International Version)
27 "I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?
