Now its my turn to beg to differ. Many people including myself have had prophetic visions and dreams. Some of them mundane and often involving emotionally charged situations or important events in my life. I have also had visions of future events that I think are relevant to all of us but have kept my mouth shut because of the very conversations that are going on here and because I'm partly in your camp guys. With a dream or a vision, the mind plays a big role in interpreting whatever is going on so it is difficult to discern between what is made up, filtered or real. I think that I have a bit of a reputation to uphold here so I'm apt to be conservative about what I see and experience. So I'll tread lightly on this subject and hope that I might change your minds a bit.
I've experienced deja vu many times in my life, knowing a full minute before an interaction or event what will be said and what will happen. Psychologists say that this is a hiccup in the brain trying to process information. I say that it is real and I often can remember the dream I had that depicted the scene . Its a very weird feeling which is saying something from this old weirdo. I've also had warnings dreams in great detail and Technicolor. And sure enough within a day or two that very scenario plays out in reality. The dream usually helps me to deal with whatever is happening. So there is a practical side to this guys.
My most powerful prophetic vision happened when Jesus gave me my calling forty years ago. When he came to me he left me with a clear as day vision of me talking to several hundred people in an old church. I saw myself exactly as I look today. I remember being shocked to see my mature self , bald and pot bellied standing in a pulpit talking about earth changes which were occurring and scaring people. I still remember in detail the look of the church which was very plain and felt to be in a Latin country in either Central or South America. I remember feeling awkward about being high up in this pulpit and I didn't like the position of being above the crowd and I remember what happened as I spoke. Jesus appeared above my head in plain view of everyone with his right had raised level with his shoulder and in a fist. He opened his hand and a light flashed over the crowd who gasped in shock and amazement. He was above me and I did not see his figure but saw the flash and looked up. He disappeared as I did so and the vision melted too. Now what 20 year old knows in detail what they will look like in middle age? Unfortunately I've had the relentless witnessing of this physical prophesy become a reality. Imagination, maybe but wow what an imagination I've got. If I could bottle that sort of imagination, I would be rich especially if you could control it so that I would be a slim handsome and confident individual standing up there
. But the vision was both thrilling and disturbing although the entire experience has been one of the very few premier highlights of my life. It was my calling after all and it was more real than waking real. Has the vision played out yet. No, I'm still eager to see it do so and I've never doubted that it will.
Do I believe in prophesy....absolutely! Do I think that every prophesy is real or will come true as perceived.....no! Free will will undo things but we have a destiny as well. Its a tricky subject influenced by God's Will, our will and the unfolding of the flow of time. I think that God knows the future as He sees beyond the flow of time and just knows. Maybe Divine intervention is necessary to influence things in the right direction. Would I be writing here today if I did not receive that calling decades ago? Maybe, maybe not. But in my most spiritually challenging times when my soul is doing back flips in the unfolding of my cleansing and testing, that vision helped me to stay focused. A powerful gift like that is never forgotten. Even if this vision is merely a trope of what is to or may come, its power and influence remains with me. So to dismiss visions of the future as a chimera or an illusion is to dismiss a gift from God. To buy in to every hint of a feeling of something that is coming is to grasp onto straws and faint thoughts. I would not recommend it. When you are receiving a gift of prophesy, you know it to your very soul. It has a quality and a feeling that is unmistakable. IT MEANS SOMETHING. How you interpret what it means is personal and should be kept so unless otherwise guided. Soul perceptions will undoubtedly give one such glimpses. I do not think that they should be dismissed or taken too seriously either. Its spiritual information to be used in context to what is happening.
We possess many abilities which when ignited by God's Love will astound us as we have no clue as to our true potentials. Just because Padgett got a message that such a gift is not possible does not make it true. He filtered things too as we all do. Relying on prophesy to guide your life is a fools game but there are times when it comes in handy. I get visions and this adds another dimension to my reality. I don't dismiss them or hang onto them either with the exception of the one given to me by Jesus. I use them to assist me in life but I don't doubt myself every time they seem not to have relevance. I'm too young in my soul growth to be altogether wise about these things. I'm just happy that my life contains these sorts of deep experiences. Never a dull moment. If, however I were to reveal all that goes on in my crazy old noggin, I wonder how much credibility I would still have? Tip of the iceberg folks. That's all that any of us see at this stage of our soul growth and at those times when I may get a deeper glimpse, it can get confusing and complicated. Sometimes trying to navigate the inner world makes driving in a foreign city look easy so I don't reveal anything that has not been confirmed at least twice.
The world is changing and only a fool would deny that since the world is always changing. The impact that humanity has upon the natural cycles of the earth has been measured to some degree by scientists. We are having an impact and I believe that it will bring negative consequences to all of us. What that will be may be seen by spirit but they will not scare us with details. Their guidance is always more prayer. Fear never accomplishes much other than to bring more darkness as does ignorance. We need to be brave and not to hide away in our comfortable illusions . Being in the truth means being in all truth as best you can. Being rigid in the truth leads to declaring things without really understanding them. We all experience the truth in our own way so it is understandable that there are blind spots here and gaps there. That is why we can learn from one another. I declare that prophesy is true because I have experienced it in my own way. My interpretation of this proclaimed truth may be off and with time and experience, what I believe now may not altogether be a truth but a mental construct or interpretation of a truth. That is how it goes in this game. Truth gets refined and seen from a clearer perspective as our souls grow. Open mindedness is key here folks. May we all continue to keep ourselves open to truth. With love........Al
Endless journey,endless Love.
