Well, I went to bed, was reading my bible by flashlight (I was sleeping in a room with others and did not want the light to wake them), and was very tired. I turned off my light, put my bible away and started to drift off to sleep. I wasn’t quite asleep yet and realized that I hadn’t prayed for __________. So, I kinda woke myself up to pray and started my prayers for them . . . .

Before I could complete my prayer I found myself walking outside in the dark and a dark shadow approached me and seemed to be tempting me. I said a simple command of “no” to the shadow. Immediately at that moment I felt myself being pulled strait up into the stars. Like I was in a wind tunnel going straight up. When I got up into the stars, I saw the face of Jesus. It was a simple face not much detail but I new it was Jesus because of his authority and the gold crown he had on. His face was outlined in a gold color and he was in the stars. I was also in the stars and Jesus was in front of me slightly to the left. I turned my head to look to the right and I saw a beautiful place. I think it was the outskirts of heaven. It was very bright and the stars just blended right into heaven so that there were no stars but only heaven. The outside of heaven was beautiful pink, yellow and white clouds. Almost like a beautiful pink sunset. I could not see past the clouds but it was beautiful.

I turned to look back at Jesus. He was there in great majesty but he didn’t smile at me, didn’t frown either. He was just there. All of a sudden I was overcome with awe and started to realize that I was seeing the face of God and was about to weep and bow down. As I went to do bend over all of a sudden I was back at in my bed again. And it was over.

I have been thinking about this and thinking about this. I’m not sure what this means. I don’t think I was sleeping because I remember being alert enough to say my prayers. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on this. I’m wondering if Jesus was warning me to turn away from sin. That is the only think I can come up with. I’m not sure if it has any relation to __________ troubles or not.

I know this sounds weird but this really happened,

 My answer:

Hi K.,

Your dream was very powerful. I was immediately moved by the Holy Spirit when you described an expressionless Yashua, but you have not finished the dream!
The dream is to edify (to build up) you with the fear (awe) of God. This fear is good and will expand your wisdom should you choose to not run from it or discard it. Many run from it and only a few run to it!
Yes, by all means repent of sin! More importantly for you is that you must be still and know that He is God!
God's will must be above any of your personal ideas of morality, ethics or feelings that you rely on in order to understand and interpret the world and events around you. Living in the fear of God will show you His will, it will open your eyes and your ears.
God is a loving God, but He is also all powerful and all mighty! If you do not humble yourself to your fear of Him then your faith will not be strong enough to stand to the end!
Take refuge in Him and lean not on your own understanding. You have not finished the dream! You have not yet worked out your faith in fear and trembling. You have not yet bent over and wept!

I pray that I have served you well.

In the service of the LORD Jesus,

Randy
