July 26, 2007 I woke up and I had a dream. Whoa! The last and only thing that I remember from it was I saw the face of a clock. It was big with a white background. The numbers were black roman numerals. Both hands were on the 12. The words spoken were, "this is a pillar". Then I woke up. What! It's not a pillar, it's a clock, I thought. I'm pondering on this as I have my morning coffee trying to make sense of it. Maybe it's a pillar of time. Maybe it means the end of one time frame and the beginning of a new one. What does it mean? I check my bible what the significance of the Pillar is and this is what I found.

"Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth. I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown. Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." (Revelation 10:13)

I thought this was just a dream, but it is much bigger than that! I encourage your readers to suit up in the armour that God gives us for protection against the enemy. We must fight!

As I was journaling what I felt the Lord was speaking to me that morning, I started to see clouds and then the heavens.  As I looked, there was a magnificent, bright, white light illuminating the heavens.  And behind the light was a figure of an older, bearded man.  I couldn’t see him clearly (sharply) because the light was so bright.  As I was looking from earth up to the heavens, I saw a long cord coming down.  It looked like it was coming out from the bright light, but I couldn’t see where the source was.  However, it did come all the way down to the earth but it was not attached to anything.  It just seemed to dangle in mid air.  I could not tell what colour the cord was, just that it was a cord.  My first instinct was like an electrical cord, but I’m not sure.  I was almost sensing the Lord was saying, I am the power supply.  But the cord was just hanging in the air over the earth. 

Then I wrote in my journal as I felt my spirit speak to me, All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me, by My Father.  As I went to my Bible to look up that scripture in more detail, John 5:25-27 seemed to speak loudly to me.  NKJ

Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.  For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Him, and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.

Just as I had finished writing down this passage in my journal, I put my pen down and wept and wept.  I had this incredible feeling of unworthiness come over me.  Not condemnation, but this holy reverence of impurity.  I felt like the holy presence of God had just visited me and I could only see my unworthiness and my inadequateness to do anything for such a Holy God.  But after a bit, my heart did a 180-degree turn and it was like, Oh My Lord, how can I serve you?  Anything You ask and I will do.  You are the One I want to spend the rest of my life serving.  I then spent much time praising and worshiping Him for His faithfulness.

The spiritual battle is very powerful right now, but praise the Lord, all authority and power is in the hands of Jesus!

Yesterday while ministering to a Tamil congregation in Toronto I was directed to Daniel...The Spirit emphasized that He is about to release an authority upon the Church (such as He did via Daniel)...it is one which is of high authority yet humble position.  Further, the Spirit emphasized action because of it being "nearly the time" (Dan. 9) and then that our windows must be set in the direction of the promise/purpose/plan of God despite any threat of a devouring (lions' mouth).... Further...all of this was prefaced in Daniel's life by the decision in his youth to align his today with God's tomorrow.
