Vision of Yellow Rubber Raft/Vision of a small ant/Visions of a violent
storm and a lightening
Author anonymous
This morning,
I woke up in the middle of a dream that continued as a prophetic vision.
In the dream, I saw Christians running a race through an easy green meadow,
which I saw to mean this current renewal. The Christians' run was their worship
to God, their ministry to others, their family life, and their function in the
church.
As the runners continued, they would find themselves being hit by something
unseen and they would fall down. After they were face down on their bellies,
the grass turned to hard jagged rock. Every movement forward took great effort
and energy. By exerting every bit of strength, these runners were able to move
forward inch by inch. They would dig their fingers into the dirt and pull and
strain, and at the same time push with their feet and barely even move forward.
This is a spiritual picture of many people in the body of
Christ right now.
The runners had the will and mind to be swift and to hold their heads high -
not out of pride, but because of the knowledge of their Father's love and
calling on their lives. So the runners' minds were struggling with confusion
and disillusionment.
At this point, the enemy is attacking many runners who are in this place. He is
taunting them with thoughts like, "Oh you thought you were a runner! Look
at you, crawling and barely moving in the dirt! Why did you even try? You won't
make it, and you should have known that all along."
But these runners kept at it. Every movement forward took great
concentration. There was pain involved. It took all their strength. But in
their spirits, these runners would not give up. Their spirits were set on
Jesus. They would run again. They continued forward. They battled the attack of
the enemy by claiming the blood of Jesus over their circumstances. They called out
to their Father to give revelation. They examined their previous run and asked
the Father to reveal if anything they'd done had caused this change. They let
go of deeper levels of worldly connections in their spirits and in their flesh
and mind and held more tightly onto the calling of Christ within them.
Then, I heard the Holy Spirit ask me if I wanted to see the big picture. As I
said "Yes" I moved quickly back and up and the terrain began to
change.
The meadow and the rock were not one continuous plain; it only looked that
way somehow to the runners down on it. It was a spiritual optical illusion. The
runners were in fact now climbers. Yes! They were already a good way up a very
high cliff. I asked the Holy Spirit why these climbers still thought they were
runners. He showed me the great fear they would have - something very similar
to a person with a fear of heights. It is the plan of the Father to take his
children up, and that is exactly what is happening to them. The funny thing is
that we have been feeling down. It is just a matter of perspective, and to the
Father, this season we are in is called, "Up".
We need to be faithful to climb and not let fear affect our willingness to
climb.
I looked to the top of the cliff for just a glimpse of what the land was
like up there. I sort of fell into it for a minute and the Holy Spirit revealed
these thoughts to me. The land above represents the next outpouring of revival.
It is a place of strong gifts and anointing. The meadow below the cliff has
been the place where we received the call and began to run in it. The cliff is
where we develop spiritual muscles, we sweat it out, we are tested and the
impurities leave. It is a season to sort out our lives. The place above is a
place of singular service to God. Worship there won't be a good church service;
it will be a continual experience, just like breathing.
Ministry there will be God moving in His power, through his vessels. It will be
signs and wonders. I saw that there would be victory and closure in the
spiritual realm over struggles that have gone on legally between Satan and
God's people. The voice of God as judge rings throughout the land against
Satan. Many nations will have spiritual closure regarding Satan's territorial
boundaries and rights in their countries. There will be a big shift in the
heavenlies as God's angels push open the heavens over nations and churches and
households. These angels will not permit the enemy to influence or cloud the work
of God in these locations. I see God's commanded blessing. I see angels, like
those who guarded the entrance to the Garden of Eden after Adam and Eve were
cast out, guarding the work of God and the open heavens he established. There
will be countless numbers of them guarding the work of God in a
way we have not seen yet.
The voice of God as the Father of love and mercy will ring out strong. There
will be thick anointing for salvation and billows of clouds of his presence.
(Before I share the end of this I want to say that I'm young in the prophetic
gifts. This is my first experience sharing anything with timing in it, so I'm
going to just lay out what I heard and let you evaluate it by your own
integrity and discernment.)
I asked, "What is the timing - when will your people be up the cliff and
into this new move?"
The Holy Spirit revealed to me that the climbers would make it to the top of
the cliff in 2 years. Then, in a steady stream, for the next 3 years after, an
army of his people would begin to pour over the top of the cliff. By 5 years
the people involved in this move would be up and over.
He showed me that there have been people, the ones moving in the prophetic, who
have been exploring and learning the lay of this new land. They are shown what
it is like, they have been like spies sent in ahead to see where the streams
are, where the vineyards are, where the places to build cities are. God is
giving them maps and information. But he is giving this information for them to
take back to the leaders and fathers and together they would hear the plan of
action. It will feel to some of the prophets like they have been asked to put
their "baby" into the arms of someone else to raise up. But this will
be so vital for them to do.
I pray right now that God will use this dream/vision to encourage you, if you
are someone who feels like you're crawling and it hurts. There is an end to it
ahead. It is for a purpose. It is building Christ inside of you, and it is very
necessary for what is coming.

As I was taking in the beauty
of Multnomah Falls, I saw a yellow rubber raft beginning to come over the
falls. My heart jumped, as it is a 300-foot drop to the base of the falls. Then
I could see that the rubber raft was holding boxes of things that had been tied
securely in place and there were not any people in the raft. I breathed a sigh
of relief.
.
As soon as the first
raft came over the edge, there was another, then another, and then countless. I
could not count fast enough. As the basin filled with yellow rubber rafts, some
people went to explore, and moved some of the boats to the side. The boats were
filled with supplies – everything and anything you could imagine – camping
supplies, cooking supplies, food, clothing, tickets, school supplies, musical
instruments, song books, cd’s, treasures, books, children’s books, shoes,
bedding, etc.
As I was standing on the bridge by the falls, I was immobilized by the GLORY of
GOD and just completely stunned. I knew I could see it and it was real but I
kept trying to reason logically. It really was the most unusual way for
supplies to be sent. The rubber rafts kept falling, people kept moving them
aside, and unloading them and taking the supplies to their cars, and then more
would come and the process continued for hours. I noticed that nothing was
broken in the boxes of supplies. That was quite a surprise to me and seemed rather
impossible.
The LORD said, “I AM doing things differently in this season.” Then there was
this revelation.
Yellow is symbolic of double portion. GOD is bringing double portion, double
fruitful, double blessings, fullness of God’s Glory, worship in dance,
deliverance, joy, and victory in a NEW and UNEXPECTED way in our lives.
The waterfall is not a normal method of transportation for a rubber raft. HE
is not going to do things as “per normal.” HIS gifts are not coming the “normal
method” or the “expected method.” We will miss what HE has if we are standing
at the mailbox waiting for the “expected” gift when HE is sending it via the
waterfall.
Waterfalls are symbolic of an outpouring of the HOLY SPIRIT! The packages were
securely tied in place. We can TRUST HIM to bring HIS gifts according to HIS
ways and according to HIS timings in our lives. HE is TRUSTWORTHY above all!
“A
little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord
will hasten it in his time” (Is.60: 22).
You may be a little one, having begun your ministry in a humble way. It may be
a small beginning. But you have been faithful to the One Who has called you and
put you into this ministry. You have been faithful in the little things that
God had entrusted you. At present, you may find yourself hedged by
impossibilities. You have to struggle. Disappointments and frustration come
your way. But, you keep doing the small work entrusted to you by God.
The Holy Spirit showed me a little ant, in a vision. It picked up a small
particle of sugar from a corner of my room. It could not carry it. But it kept
attempting. After some time, it brought two more ants there. All of them joined
hands and carried it together. This small group carried it to its destination.
Now a swarm of ants has arrived, and has started carrying the remnant of the
sugar lying in the corner of my room. Oh, it is a big swarm. It has become a
strong nation. This swarm proceeded in a beeline. All the ants are very
disciplined. The small work started by a single ant has resulted in a very big
work accomplished by a strong swarm.
Similarly, in the body of Christ, God raises up a single man or woman with a
vision. He or she is likened to the little ant in the vision. As he/she obeys
the Lord in doing the small things the Lord wants him/her to do, then the Lord
raises up a big group all over the world, likened to the swarm of ants, to
carry on the ministry in a bigger way.
Let us not despise the humble beginnings. If the ant had not smelt out the
first particle of sugar and thus failed to make its way into the corner of my
room, the great swarm would not have arrived there to carry the entire sugar
littered on the floor.
Oh, the little one has become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation.
One talent will become a thousand talents. One person will give birth to a
thousand. A small group will become a strong group. It is none but the Lord Who
will hasten it in the due time of the person concerned who had seen the vision.
The Lord will make all the resources available to him/her. Windows of the
heaven will be opened for pouring out His anointing, His finances and His
materials.
Evangelist Steven Pyle, Arkansas, USA, a dear brother who is a partner with us in this ministry had seen a number of visions. By the grace of God, I interpreted these visions on the basis of the Word. He saw a vision of the cities of New York and Manhattan. In these cities, a violent storm brought down many skyscrapers and a lightening appeared in the sky. In another vision, he saw a tent by the side of a Golden sea and under a golden-colored sky, and a life-boat was floating on this sea.

A violent storm and a lightening
A violent storm precedes a lightening. This shows an ensuing great revival on the churches of New York, beginning from Manhattan. The violent storm shatters all the buildings, and the lightening is so powerful so as to cause fire. The violent storm and the lightening are of God. The violent storm shows His judgment on those self-centered ministries, the man-made buildings, which our Father has not planted. Some of the ministries which have been used of God mightily in the past have since exalted themselves like the skyscrapers and have deviated from the Word. Such ministries will also be humbled by the violent storm. Then the lightening from the heaven appears. The Holy Spirit will be poured out on those true and humble servants of God. And they will be filled with His Spirit and fire. There will be a clear line of demarcation between those ministries to be brought down by the violent storm and those ministries which will be exalted by God through revivals.
Dear brother, the Lord has chosen YOU FOR A GREAT WORK IN USA. You should have nothing in common with those ministries who are following the usual worldly and corrupt ways of this world to serve Him. They may be performing miracles; prophesying, etc. But they are not doing His will. God has given you wonderful visions. What you have to do now? Just fall before Him in your secret chamber and shed tears at His altar. Like the present day ministers, do not appeal for funds. Do not follow their methods at all. The first vision interpreted by me should be the basis of your ministry. This vision is also for all the members of His body.

A tent and a golden sea
Yours is a new way of evangelistic ministry. You have to pitch tent in those countries where the Spirit leads you to go. You may now identify the people of God who are of the same vision as we have, to help you in the ministry. Yours is not an individual ministry. It is a body ministry. Tent-making involves many people. A Gold ocean is seen here. It is one gold ocean. A life boat is floating on this ocean. Gold is figurative of His abundant finances. Gold and silver are His. God will meet all your financial needs. The life boat of your ministry will be on the Golden ocean only. It should not be dependent on the human methods of raising funds being indulged in by the ministers of today. The sky you see is not of the usual blue colour. It is of golden colour. God's holiness is revealed here. This shows that the life boat of your ministry is under the sky of His holiness. In ever aspect of your life and ministry, holiness should be evident and transparent. Three bright rays of light are seen in a row. God's full power is revealed from the heaven. The life boat is being sustained by His finances and by His omnipotent power. The life boat is also likened to the prayer support. This life boat, which is on the Golden ocean and under the golden sky, will give the life to your tent-ministry.
