My event happened when I was around 8 years old.
At that time, I shared the bedroom with my
sister and brother. I am the oldest of the
three of us. The room consisted of a set of
bunk beds and a trundle type bed.
We went regularly to church at least
three times weekly. I was very shy and
withdrawn, didn't catch much that was
going on, didn't pay attention much was usually
in children's type church settings.
Most of what I knew of from Sunday school
was Noah's Ark, David and Goliath,
Jonah and the whale, baby Jesus,
Joseph's coat of many colors, etc.
I was a child.
I recall one night I was sleeping on
the top bunk which; "I considered my room".
I was awakened by a vivid dream.
What I remember of the dream is that Jesus
was wearing shiny white, not a gown, but not a
suit either. I could see his whole face, nothing
covering it in any way. His face was stern,
and triumphant. It was as though He radiated
total acceptance of all those around Him.
His face was not wrinkled, nor did it show age.
His hair was short and almost transparent,
yet it seemed to have color in it. His skin
was a tanned color, with no marks or
freckles. He was wonderful to look upon.
He was strong and well built.
It was obvious
He had a plan, and would complete it!
He sat on a really huge white horse with a lot
of extra long white shimmering hair on its
tail, main and legs. There were leather-looking
reigns from the horse's mouth to Jesus' left
hand. The reigns had fringe hanging about an
inch long all over. The white horse was
beautiful and looked as if there was fire
under it's feet, with each step; and it's
front feet were prancing and kicking and
moving around, while his back feet were
stationary. The horse was obviously
excited and ready for action.
This setting was up in thick white and gray
clouds and the sun was shining or it was very
bright in the clouds.
There were people standing on the sides and
the front of Jesus' horse. They were wearing
regular street clothes and were very happy.
They were applauding with their hands and
shouting praises and love at Jesus constantly,
not stopping for a quite a while. Smiling and
shouting praises to Him. It even looked
like confetti was in the air in celebration.
They were all standing
around Him, except behind Him,
kind of like a three quarter circle.
No one was behind Him.
Then they all turned toward the earth, and
Jesus began to lead them toward the earth.
In His right hand was a big sword lifted
high in the air at this point. Jesus now began
to cause the horse to start toward the earth
and all those with Him, many people, all with
swords now and more shouting in support of
the quest.
Following His lead they began to move. There
were many people all different looks and
personalities, all adults!
I saw no children.
It was the second coming of the Lord.
I awakened and could still see it in my minds eye.
Lying there on the top bunk bed, the back
door wide open. I had no clue about anything
like that, not the rapture of the church
nor the second coming. I looked out my
window in the dark clear sky; at the stars
shining, and was expecting to see them
coming any second. I remember being quickened
and shuddering, expecting and yet a little
fearful. I knew I was not prepared for such
an event even at that young age, and had no real
idea what it was in the first place. I was
frightened that I wasn't knowledgeable about it
or prepared in whatever way I could
be. The back door was wide open for the cool
fresh air and I was lying there waiting for this
event to take place, immediately!
I didn't sleep anymore that night and the
dream plagued me for days; and has been
there as a reminder for years.
Since then I realized that I was born in the
time when events were to happen according
to the Word, and because of that dream,
I know the Lord
will return in my lifetime. That means the
gathering away of those ready at that
point will happen first. That is not the
second coming of the Lord.
I can still see the dream in my minds eye
in vivid detail. This dream has helped to shape
my life I am sure, and many of the decisions
I have made to this point. I hope only to give Jesus
glory with all I have told from this event in my
life.
1 Thessalonians 1:7... And to you who are troubled
rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed
from heaven with his mighty angels, (continuing to
read into v. 11.) Wherefore also we pray always for
you, that our God would count you worthy of this
calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness,
and the work of faith with power (and continue to
read chapter 2)
Revelation 19:11. And I saw heaven opened, and
behold a white horse; and he that sat upon
him was called Faithful and true, and in righteousness
he doth judge and make war.
There are so many other scriptures describing the
second coming of the Lord.
I wish to add: I didn't tell my family about
this dream until now and when my adult children
read it, they were surprised and glad I shared
it with them. It caused us to discuss other things
that have taken place in our lives concerning
Jesus that were somewhat out of the ordinary.
Thank you.
