Church! A Storm is Coming!
A storm is coming! Time for The Church to get clean and start sounding the alarm!
The Dream
I had a God dream on September 11, 2020 that was imprinted on my heart.
In the dream I was in what looked like someone’s house and we were all getting ready to go to a 12:00 Church Service, but I and others were mulling around trying to get ready to go, and we knew we were late.
In this house were a grouping of showers like you would see in an army barracks or camp of some sort.
I got into one for the showers and remembered I needed to take off some medical equipment that I have to wear. so I went out to take it off, and I looked up as if I could see through — but I actually couldn’t see through — the wall.
I saw the top of someone’s body getting into the shower I was going to use, and begin to take a shower. All at once, when it was my turn to go in, I asked someone what time it was, and they said that it was 8:00 pm.
I then said “Oh my we’ve missed the Church Service!” Next I walked through the house into the back. Attached to the house was what looked like an army hangar, or barracks type building, with a few people in it, when all at once, I heard someone on a loudspeaker say, “Get everybody into the Barracks and shut the door!”
I then looked up and saw a couple of young people with an almost defiant but yet fearful look on their faces and they were trying to go out through the door into what looked like a horrible storm brewing!
I realized that they had to get in the hangar. I kept screaming for them to “Get inside! The storm is coming!”
The Interpretation
The LORD then gave me this scripture,
“Come, My people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast,” Isaiah 26:20.
I feel The LORD is saying through this dream that The Church is ‘in the house right now’, getting cleaned up!
Many are running behind in this, and are even late, but in the dream, I asked what time it was and someone said 8 o’clock. 8 is the number of New Beginnings!
We are about to come to a time of New Beginnings in The Church. But wait, we had missed Church because for some, we were late in getting cleaned up!
I hear The LORD saying. “Don’t miss this time that I AM giving you to prepare yourself for the new thing that I AM going to do with The Church!
I AM preparing you in the house, to be The Army of My Presence and Purity!
I AM preparing you to be the ones who are to sound the alarm for those who are outside in the storm that is coming!
I AM preparing you to be a voice, but you have allowed many things to keep you from this time of preparation!
There is darkness that is encroaching all around you and the winds of chaos are blowing, but it is time for My People to walk in Holiness!
For it is written ‘be Holy for I AM Holy!’ This is the time to be shouting! This is the time to sound the alarm! This is the time to save those — as if by Fire!
In the days ahead, the only ones who will walk in life giving power and authority, the only ones who will truly have something to say, will be those who walk in The Spirit and stay in The Secret Place!
I AM calling My Army to be clean before me, so that they can withstand the storm and the onslaught of the devil and be the voice crying in the wilderness…
Prepare the way of The LORD! I AM calling them to sound the alarm on my holy mountain!“
God is preparing us to truly declare what we are seeing!
“Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, and anoint the shield. For thus hath The LORD said unto me, go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth,” Isaiah :21:5-6.
The Call
God is calling the watchman to declare what he is truly seeing and be those who tell the people to come in from the storm!
Many have been in their house — in The Secret Place — and now it is time to sound the alarm as to what you have seen there!
Let the people know that He has prepared a place of safety for them!
Let them know that The Kingdom of God is at hand!
Let them know that there is a New Beginning, and tell them not to miss what God wants to do for them and through them!
“Blow ye the trumpet in zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of The LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand,” Joel 2:1.
“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of The LORD is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but The LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. And the gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising,” I saiah 60:1-3.

Amen! i have a similiar dream on 10/09/2020..God bless you beloved!!!
Hi Jo Ellen.
Your dream reminds me of the Words the Lord spoke to me some years ago. He said, “When your looking at yourself, your not looking at me.”
Getting ready for Church IS looking at Him. I tossed my makeup, my hair, my wardrobe, my fancy job (with company vehicle) so no car, my old “friends” and my reputation into the garbage. Needless to say all hell broke loose. This seems extreme doesn’t it? This was in complete obedience to the Lord’s Call for such a time as this. Its been almost six years now and never once have I lacked. I don’t look the way the world likes anymore so rejection is a daily event. But so what, this time is but a drop in the Eternal Ocean…a vapor. It’s been the most uncomfortable and the most beautiful years of my life, but I refuse to be found sleeping, or primping, when He arrives. I began to fast and pray and devour His Word, day and night!! I didn’t sleep much, and still don’t. I’m persecuted day and night by bullies I’ve learned to love and pray for, only by His Grace. I’ve had to completely die to self. In this hour anything less will be persuaded by the great deception…even the Elect, if that were possible.
I pray for the Church to wake up and cast off the world which is passing away. Even a toenail in the door is enough bring us to the depths. He’s coming for a Pure, Spotless, Blameless, Insideout, Wrinkle Free Bride, and He deserves no less.
Bless your beautiful heart for sharing your dream JoEllen. Your posts have inspired and encouraged me.
Thank you :)
Amen to what you have dreamed and are sharing. We have a place of refuge within us as we gather in our home church of 12 to 14. We worship, study, pray and fellowship with one another. It is a place of safety and the Spirit of the Lord is with us. We are but ordinary people from many diverse backgrounds. Our Father plucked each one of us from dying fields and replanted us in His new field of life. I praise and thank my Father for his love for us.
By the way, we reside in North Carolina.
May the Lord bless and keep you.
