A group of us, some people I know and am currently in relationship with and some people I do not know but understood in the dream that I was in relationship with them, and my little brother Brian, all took a journey to go and live in a complex of cabins in a far away land. The dream being set in medieval times had us walking in this journey. We undertake this journey with a legitimate agreement with the landlord/owner of these cabins to occupy and to live in them…. a lease if you will, which I recognize as a contract between us.
As we arrive at our destination we find that there are squatters living illegitimately in these domiciles. When we tell them that they must go and that we have authority from the owner of the properties to occupy them they recognize the authority of our claim to be there they angrily and begrudgingly leave. After spending some time organizing and making sleeping arrangements we all separate to go off to our separate cabins for the night.
All of a sudden I awaken to a pair of arms grabbing me from under the house through a hole in the floor. The grip is strong but not insurmountable but is trying to drag me into the space under the cabin for what ever reason. Shortly, I hear my brother yelling to me with clear distress in his voice to resist being dragged into the crawl space. I understand that he too is being attacked in his cabin. After the attack seems to abate we all begin meeting outside to compare our experiences. There are some things that dawn on us.
We had assumed that because we were the legitimate tenants that no one would oppose our being there. The squatters were rough looking people but it never occurred that they would resist and otherwise try to harm us for being there. In fact, the idea that there would be any struggle at all is foreign to me.
Very shortly after we had all separated to go to our respective cabins and within moments of my entering my cabin I immediately came under a very powerful attack. The attack was not by any human force but by a strange pressure like force that pinned me against the wall I was nearest. It was as if I was under 300’ of water and the immense weight of it was crushing me into incapacitation. As I am being crushed under this weight I have some strange thoughts come to me.
After recognizing this attack of unparalleled supernatural power, which I identified as witchcraft, I began to realize my profound vulnerability to this power seizing me. I realized how insufficient alone my claim to this lease was, in that I desperately needed the landlord Himself to come and establish my claim. I interestingly, began to realize the sin in my real life (the compromises, the struggles that I far too often do not struggle with, the outright disobedience I am willing to live in and also my laziness that so often has me ignoring my need to sow into the things of the Spirit thus strengthening my "inner man") and immediately connected that to my inability to withstand the profoundly powerful attack I was under.
Believing that I was going to die without remedy I began to pray in the Spirit, “tongue talking”. Although I did not immediately experience relief, nor did I sense any coming- I still believed I was going to die- within a few more minutes the strange but powerful attack subsided and I could begin to take a breath.
When I was released I ran outside and found the others too had been under attack and had gone outside to share the experiences they had. I began to scream, "We are not ready for this! We are not prepared! We are not ready for this! We are not prepared!" After i caught my breath I began to relate my encounter to them and they were intrigued by what we were to learn from it as well as their won encounters. Immediately after relating my story I looked over behind the group and I saw a small contingent of the larger group of squatters mount horses and begin to ride away; they had hate and anger on their faces which made me realize that we would be seeing them again. Interestingly they wore human skulls as necklaces around their necks.
I awoke with a sense of heaviness in the extreme!. Some of what was being communicated to me is presently clear. I am going to seek God for the rest and if/when I get more I will relate that also.

Deuteronomy 8
“Beware that you do not forget the LORD your God by not keeping His commandments and His ordinances and His statutes which I am commanding you today; 12 otherwise, when you have eaten and are satisfied, and have built good houses and lived in them, 13 and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and gold multiply, and all that you have multiplies,14 then your heart will become proud and you will forget the LORD your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
Reminds me of what our religion has come to these days in the west.
Do not worry however, as God chastised Israel He will chastise us, and bring us back to the place of repentance, surrender, holiness, and Kingdom for the lost and broken around us. It's coming like a flood.
I had a dream 09-15-09:
I had a dream where we, a wide ranging group of people, some I knew some I do not, were at a road side "Mom and Pops" store doing our thing (shopping & browsing). I suddenly noticed that it was supposed to be dark outside but the sun was up- it was a time that it would normally be dark outside- I am thinking 10 p.m. I hurriedly began to call my family who lived out west and asked them about what the sun was doing- when I call and ask they then begin to notice that it was dark much earlier than usual and that something was clearly wrong. Most people did not notice this dramatic event- it was as though the rotation of the earth was changing, however, the sun was still in an appropriate position, just not at a usual time. Of course if the axis and/or rotation changes, even slightly, then we are looking at global catastrophe- life, AS WE KNOW IT, will be violently destroyed. As I am seeking to confirm this phenomenon, I am waiting for the storms to come knowing that they must come because of this kind of change. From the first notice of this event the verse at Acts 2: 19 constantly plays in my mind through out the dream; 'AND I WILL GRANT WONDERS IN THE SKY ABOVE AND SIGNS ON THE EARTH BELOW, BLOOD, AND FIRE, AND VAPOR OF SMOKE.
The fundamentals of life as we know it are in the process of change, the storms that would normally rage immediately at the slightest change are delayed temporarily but are brewing and gaining strength. I am struck at how few people notice the changes occurring and who can comprehend the ensuing disaster.

Fat & Sassy
The physical therapist assigned to help me strengthen my core is very knowledgeable. I am impressed with how much knowledge this person has on the subject, particularly the spine. Interestingly, this person is obese and their core is much larger and injurious to their spine than my situation. Clearly a person can have knowledge, even expertise, and not put into practice and live the life style that they regularly advocate.
The physical therapist's vast knowledge and apparent lack of will to apply it to the their own life is sorta like Christianity in the west. Western Christianity has never been more sophisticated, organized, and wealthy, yet never so powerless- look at the evidence.
Amazingly, we have made a religion of knowing the Bible while not living according to it's mandate and by it's exapmle. We make great boasts about believing it literally yet walk in the most incredible unbelief of spiritual reality. We pursue "mammon" just as vigorously as we do our own glory when God declared that we cannot serve both God and mammon.
I am amazed at how similar the modern Christian aristocracy is to the ancient Jewish aristocracy....... you know the Pharisees, and for those of you who deny spiritual reality yet take the Scriptures literally, the Sadducees.

Alexis de Tocqueville
"I seek to trace the novel features under which despotism may appear in the world. The first thing that strikes the observation is an innumerable multitude of men all equal and alike, incessantly endeavoring to procure the petty and paltry pleasures with which they glut their lives.
Above this race of men stands an immense and tutelary power, which takes upon itself alone to secure their gratifications, and to watch over their fate. That power is absolute, minute, regular, provident, and mild. It would be like the authority of a parent, if, like that authority, its object was to prepare men for manhood; but it seeks on the contrary to keep them in perpetual childhood: it is well content that the people should rejoice, provided they think of nothing but rejoicing. For their happiness such a government willingly labors, but it chooses to be the sole agent and the only arbiter of that happiness: it provides for their security, foresees and supplies their necessities, facilitates their pleasures, manages their principal concerns, directs their industry, regulates the descent of property, and subdivides their inheritances—what remains, but to spare them all the care of thinking and all the trouble of living?…
The principle of equality has prepared men for these things: it has predisposed men to endure them, and oftentimes to look on them as benefits."
-- Alexis de Tocqueville

Oh Western "church",
You are holding to a form of godliness, yet you deny its power;
“YOU WILL KEEP ON HEARING, BUT WILL NOT UNDERSTAND; AND YOU WILL KEEP ON SEEING, BUT WILL NOT PERCEIVE; FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, AND WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES; OTHERWISE THEY MIGHT SEE WITH THEIR EYES, AND HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM.”’
‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. ‘So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth. ‘Because you say, “I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing,” and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. ‘Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. ‘Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. ‘He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. ‘He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the church.
“Woe to the rebellious children (the "church" in America),” declares the LORD,“Who execute a plan, but not Mine, And make an alliance, but not of My Spirit, Who proceed down to Egypt(government)Without consulting Me,To take refuge in the safety of Pharaoh(politicians)And to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt (government)!
“Therefore the safety of Pharaoh will be your shame And the shelter in the shadow of Egypt, your humiliation. For this is a rebellious people, false sons,Sons who refuse to listen To the instruction of the LORD; Who say to the seers, “You must not see visions”; And to the prophets, “You must not prophesy to us what is right,
Speak to us pleasant words, Prophesy illusions. “Get out of the way, turn aside from the path, Let us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel.”
“Since you have rejected this word
And have put your trust in oppression and guile, and have relied on them, Therefore this iniquity will be to you Like a breach about to fall, A bulge in a high wall,
Whose collapse comes suddenly in an instant, Whose collapse is like the smashing of a potter’s jar,
For thus the Lord GOD has said, “In repentance and rest you will be saved,
In quietness and trust is your strength.

Learning from Haiti
Something has been telling me to watch Haiti and see what happens when society breaks down. The following are a few links to articles that are describing the mayhem taking place in Haiti.

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=arxZJfdcT_i0
http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N14205092.htm
This link mentions the prison that collapsed and the prisoners now on the loose:
http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1953379_1953494_1953819,00.html?cnn=yes&hpt=T2
I heard a quote in one of the videos from Haiti that mentioned the fact that money is no longer valuable but water is now the currency that they are using.
I believe that it is just a matter of time before we experience some troubles in our own society. I recommend that we study and learn from this affair in Haiti. Then we need to plan in concert with each other, or with someone.
No, its not fear like some claim, but wisdom. Someone needs to be standing firm when the storms come. I believe that those of us that are prepared, spiritually and materially, to some degree will be significantly more effective early on in representing Christ to the desperate and the bereaved.
We need to guard our hearts. Of course, if our relationship with Jesus is lacking we will be short on everything that we really need. What good is a stockpile of goods without the fruit that only comes from relationship with the Father? After spending time in the presence of God, what ever ideas we have about preparation should be trusted. With each action we MUST weigh the motives behind them so as to make sure our preparation will not interfere with what the Father has planned for such a time; Ephesians 2:10. Ultimately, kingdom is all that matters. Is it impossible to think that we might be asked to give our lives for someone else according to eternal purposes? God forbid we position ourselves against the heart and plans of the Father.

Freedom
“O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to give you an answer concerning this matter. 17 “If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. 18 “But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your... gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.” Daniel 3
In reading Daniel 3 I began to catch glimpses of the institutions prominent in our country. From the government, the financial, to the religious, I began to see this same pattern repeated: the leadership creates an "image"/ideal for the people to worship then demands that the people worship it. With a wide variety of manipulations, coercions, and Idealistic values to be revered, they have created systems of control.
For example,
I see the government creating a growing dependence upon themselves. To the degree we depend on someone, they have power over us. The gov demands our worship which is expressed through our taxes among other things- the more taxes they demand from us the more control they have over us under threat of punishment. Gov also has found it advantageous to create personalities with which to keep the people distracted from the reality of their slavery and through whom offers false/empty hopes that have the ability to make us patient for a tomorrow that will never come. This is the custom of all political parties for those of you who are blindly committed to a party.... See More
I see the financial institutions making slaves of just about all of us. If we agree to what the financial institutions declare as "good and ideal" then we must participate in their system- which enslaves us. "The borrower is slave to the lender" and to the degree that we get caught up in "more, bigger, better" we enslave ourselves further. The financial institutions too have found it beneficial to to create personalities through whom they can capture the gaze of the people. They idolize the rich and famous which effectively creates an idolatry that demands a life long dedication.
I see the religious institutions manipulating it's adherents with subjective and self-serving interpretations of their "good books" (the tithe as it is taught today is one example). I see the institutions creating virtues and rituals which are very shallow and largely powerless in the sight of God but have the ability to manipulate and influence an outward allegiance but leave the heart of man dry and disconnected from the Life that true religion/relationship offers. Few of the superstars that religion has created have been able to survive the idolatry they receive but this has not stopped institutional religion from creating them and using them for their own benefit. The institution has created, within their traditions a dependence on it's leaders, which they, often unknowingly, foster to the detriment of the people's spiritual health and freedom. This is witchcraft which produces idolatry!
As I have continued to draw closer to God/Jesus in relationship, not through religion, I have unexpectedly found the chains of slavery which have had my mind and heart bound to man and the worship of him. I did not set out on this path nor would I have chosen it. I do appreciate the freedom that I see down the road, not that I am there yet, but the cost is beginning to get expensive. I have heard it once said that "Freedom isn't free."

Wild Hog Hunting in SC



Yesterday, Thanksgiving, my father-in-law, brother-in-law, and I went duck hunting. Knowing that we were just as likely to see hogs as ducks in this particular swamp, I brought my Remington 700 30.06. On our way to the swamp we spotted this large herd of pigs. I took aim at the largest of the group and fired. Immediately the hogs charged us, which, of course put us into the trees. After they left the area we walked over to view the hog that dropped only to find that another had been killed also. As I was the only one to shoot we realized that I had killed two hogs with one shot. That was amazing luck (I really do not believe in luck). Amazing because, anyone who knows the model 700 knows that a second shot is not always available; especially when the hogs immediately started to charge- the only option at that time is to run to the nearest climbable tree, which I did!
I am blessed when I consider my freedom to own guns, freedom to hunt private property, to be able to provide for my family from my efforts, and blessed that we survived. I am so very thankful for the blessings that God has afforded us, thankful for America, and most of all, thankful for Jesus.

Nakkita Khrushchev Prophesy
I have friends that think I am being sensational in my stated belief that the leftists in American government are moving us toward socialism and ultimately marxism. They mock me because it is inconceivable to them. One of my friend's parents were political refugees from Cuba. He looks over the prosperity that he enjoys here in the US and declares that this is the greatest nation in the world. Because we do not resemble Cuba he concludes that we are no where near marxism and not heading that way. "You need to stop listening to Glenn Beck!" he says.
Dwight Eisenhower's Secretary of Agriculture, Ezra Taft Benson met with USSR's Nikkita Khrushchev in 1954 and related:
Ezra Taft Benson” I have talked face to face with the godless communist leaders. It may surprise you to learn that I was host to Mr. Khrushchev for a half day when he visited the United States, not that I’m proud of it. I opposed his coming then, and I still feel it was a mistake to welcome this atheistic murderer as a state visitor. But, according to President Eisenhower, Khrushchev had expressed a desire to learn something of American Agriculture — and after seeing Russian agriculture I can understand why. As we talked face to face, he indicated that my grandchildren would live under communism. After assuring him that I expected to do all in my power to assure that his and all other grandchildren will live under freedom he arrogantly declared in substance:
You Americans are so gullible. No, you won’t accept communism outright, but we’ll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you’ll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won’t have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.’
Well?

The diseased, another dream
A group of us were driving some place; no place that I recognized. While driving up a lonely country road we came to the outskirts of a small town at the top of a hill. As we began to enter the town, we started to encounter bodies in the road way- of course this was very traumatic with very heavy feeling. For some reason we were passing a joint between us. Our vehicle, a Volkswagen mini-bus, ran over a couple of these corpses so we decided that we needed to drive very carefully so as to avoid them. We decided to drive around this town to investigate what was going on. It did not occur to us that this might be very dangerous except that we had an old .38 Smith that I pulled out; but then I am always armed. In this small town it did not take us long to find the downtown area, which, seemed to have been the place of a conflict. Approximately a third of the retail stores on Main Street were burned out and some of the homes also seemed to suffer from the same event. We did not see much of any other kind of violence or calamity but the fact that this many of the store fronts were burned suggested some kind of disaster. Interestingly, we did not see any living town’s people around; although we were sure they were merely indoors. After driving through the down town area we decided to go and investigate the scene where we found the bodies. Due to a lack of traumatic evidence on the bodies we began to worry about the possibilities of a virus or a bio agent of some sort. Upon this notion, we realized that we were not careful about protecting ourselves from airborne contaminants. For this reason we thought we were beginning to feel the symptoms of our exposure to something. In our perceived exposure we decided that we needed to take refuge in an antique schoolhouse/church which was on the outskirts of town at the top of the hill. The schoolhouse looked very much like the schoolhouse in Walnut Grove. As we began to settle in the symptoms started to intensify; dizziness, nausea, lethargy, headaches, and an inability to think clearly. After a little while some of the town’s people began to come around the school/church to investigate our being there. They appeared to be interested in helping us but they did not really do anything except come near to us speaking in soft tones- they demonstrated empathy. As they did, however, our symptoms seemed to lessen. I remember that as they began to minister empathy a delirium, which seems to have been comparable to a fog, began to lift from me. As the fog began to lift, and as quickly as it lifted, I began to be able to see clearly; to include realizing that the sickness that was killing me was completely imagined. I realized that the perceived illness would have killed me unless these town’s people came and administered this empathy. I was astounded to realize that this illness, as deadly as it was, really had no power except to make us believe that we were going to die. When the symptoms finally left me I started to walk around to try and figure out what was happening. I came across friends from the bus that were still sick and dying, I walked over to many of the corpses and noticed that some of these people had died in activity because of their positions, and I saw piles of diarrhea and vomit everywhere. I remember being constantly concerned about avoiding this excrement. There was evidence of great carnage but based on my own experience it was all a product of the imagination. The dream ended and I was left certain that I needed to esteem this one by writhing it down.
Disconnected memories of the dream: In the background, I understood that this phenomenon was taking place globally. I understood that this town was a small picture of what was happening on a larger scale everywhere.
- I remember by their appearance that the town’s folk were obviously not qualified to be administers of quality medicine- they were average people. These people were also clearly not religious folk or clergy; they were blatantly your “next door neighbor”. Moreover, they knew themselves, that they had no answers/cures for this disease except their empathy. These were a very sober bunch of people who when approaching us did so with much caution. They were not afraid of the “virus” they were afraid of who we might be.
- Charlie M. had tunneled under the road where a large number of the bodies were concentrated, but for a reason that I do not recognize.
- I remember that while in my stupor I was sitting in a chair that had buttons on the arm rest that were the same buttons that you would find on an office telephone that were the buttons to different phone lines. There was a phone on this chair that someone, I seem to remember an executive like a mayor or someone, would have used but neither the chair or the phone were being used or had been in a while. This was in the schoolhouse/church.
- I remember that the gun had no relevance except that it caused the town’s people concern which caused them to pause in their ministry to me. It seems that after a while the gun disappeared from the dream altogether.
- I also remember that some of the sick were resistant to the ministry of the town’s folk because they did not trust them. Therefore, the town’s folk did not impose themselves. I received the ministry and the subsequent healing because I did not resist. I do not remember why I did not resist I just did not.
- As I look back on this dream I do not remember ANY religious or spiritual feelings or dynamics. The schoolhouse/church building did not have any associated feelings or notions of spirituality.
- I am not sure what the joint would mean, if anything. I traveled cross country in the same kind of Volkswagen van and smoked much weed. Perhaps God cannot give me a dream of a Volkswagen van without my memory imposing itself.

I had a dream
Last night I had a dream where we, a wide ranging group of people, some I knew some I do not, were at a road side "Mom and Pops" store doing our things. I suddenly noticed that it was supposed to be dark outside but the sun was up- it was a time that it would normally be dark outside- I am thinking 10 p.m. I hurriedly began to call my family who lived out west and asked them about what the sun was doing- when I call and ask they then begin to notice that it was dark much earlier than usual and that something was clearly wrong. Most people did not notice this dramatic event- it was as though the rotation of the earth was changing, however, the sun was still in an appropriate position, just not a usual time. Of course if the axis and/or rotation changes, even slightly, then we are looking at global catastrophe- life, AS WE KNOW IT, will be violently destroyed. As I am seeking to confirm this phenomenon, I am waiting for the storms to come knowing that they must come because of this kind of change. From the first notice of this event the verse at Acts 2: 19 constantly plays in my mind through out the dream; 'AND I WILL GRANT WONDERS IN THE SKY ABOVE AND SIGNS ON THE EARTH BELOW, BLOOD, AND FIRE, AND VAPOR OF SMOKE.
The fundamentals of life as we know it are in the process of change, the storms that would normally rage immediately at the slightest change are delayed temporarily but are brewing and gaining strength. I am struck at how few people notice the changes occurring and who can comprehend the ensuing disaster.

A Day in South Carolina


A beautiful South Carolina sunrise.
Great fun fishing the beautiful blue open ocean 10 miles off of South Carolina.
My beautiful wife, my brother in law captain Gabe, and myself with the fruit of a medicinal endeavor- the excellent Spanish Mackerel.
The end of a beautiful day, a beautiful South Carolina sunset over the marsh between the island and the coast.


I am in awe of this masterpiece that declares Your majesty. I am grateful for Your grace that allows me to embrace it.
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, Who Is, And Was, And Is to Come.
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, Who Is, And Was, And Is to Come.

Hunting Island, SC
This first photo is a photo of the Palmetto tree of the Palmetto State, SC.
The second photo is of the resident gator in the park pond at the ranger station.
The third photo is a typical scene on Hunting Island- everything isolated by the Palmetto forests.
This next photo is of a boardwalk that leads to an island in the marsh.
Last photo is obvious.

Bird of Prey

Autumn of 06 my father found this hawk sitting on a cattle path near a pond on his farm. As he approached the bird he realized that he was injured or ill. Being a man of good will he caught the bird with the hope of aiding him. Unfortunately the bird did not appear to have any obvious problems which would have made it easier to help. My dad's hypothesis is that the bird had the West Nile virus as this bird was found in the season when it seemed that critters around the Mid-West were coming down with it. I do not know about that.
The bird was beautiful as seen in these photos. I thought that I would share with y'all.
Blessings and Life to you.

But to Proffer the Gift of Life Eternal

Romans 1:20For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
One night recently my wife and I came home to find this beautiful creature sitting on our door step. He was very kind to allow us to get close enough to take these photos. I assume that this is a moth of some kind. Some of the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen have been moths. I have encountered them in wild colors and patterns as well as shapes and sizes- pure white with purple spots circled in black, gray with pinkish symmetrical bands, and so on. The colors and their contrasts would make any artist a creative genius. The shapes and sizes are the very definition of creativity and imagination. The combination of these attributes declare an unparalleled love for beauty.
Astonished! With flashing of eyes, stunned by Your glory,
In awe and wonder I see Your hand,
Supreme Creator consummate Architect, in love You tell Your story,
In awe and wonder I see Your hand,
Overwhelmed I give You my heart
When I survey the array of all Your deeds, my heart stirs, I begin to see,
Your love for man, Your pursuit therein,
Mountains and lowlands, blue skies and black, above and below the sea,
Your love for man, Your pursuit therein,
Overwhelmed I give You my heart
Whom among artists, creators, or play writes, paints, creates or writes to curtain,
But to proffer the gift of Life eternal
From alpha to omega, beginning and end, all Your majesty Your splendor display
But to proffer the gift of Life eternal
Overwhelmed I give You my heart
