Written Version:
On 3:07 AM on December 19th I woke up from a vivid series of dreams. The series was just like watching a T.V. series, back-to-back, but on fast-forward. The locations were around the world, on-site all throughout Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Africa. I saw scenes of people from every race, and they were jutting about, zooming ahead to buy and sell. Some were looking and chasing and inquiring, there were accidents, and just mountains and mounds of activities accumulating in a burst of acceleration across the seven continents of the earth. People were busy, caught up in their own things, pursuits, ambitions–and no one seemed very concerned or even aware of what others were doing unless it directly related to them.
Then in one of the scenes there was a large road accident in India and God just zoomed me in to this vignette. The accident involved people that had been traveling in all sorts of modes of transportation, just like normal traffic in India–cars and cycle-shaws and rickshaws and bicycles. One of the men had gotten really hurt in this sort of domino effect. So there was about 8 families waiting for the police to come, but the one man was laying on the side of the road, impaled by this large metal instrument that he was carrying on his bicycle. So I ran over to the group that was waiting for the police, and they all seemed disconnected from each other and they also were almost blind to the man that was dying from the impact of the accident. So I called out in Hindi “If there is a doctor, you please come quickly!” and one of the men jumped up along with one of women and said “I am a doctor!” and ran over to the man who didn’t have any time to wait for anyone to come to Him. Then in the midst of all this information, I was standing there, and I heard a voice saying “Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted.” There was just this intentional urgency and it had to do with the imminent return of Christ and so as I stood there in the midst of all this information I was wondering “Well, then what am I supposed to do next?” Then I looked up into the heavens and there in the sky I saw the word ASK in three very large letters. So I took some time to ponder this before the Lord to find out the interpretation and this is what I believe the Holy Spirit is saying:
Number one: There is a sleep that comes from inactivity, but there is also a sleep and distraction that comes from too much activity. You can go on automatic, overload, get disconnected, and callused. You can be there, but not actually be present. We need to guard against this.
Number two: all the activity can sweep us up and forward along with everyone else and in the midst of that we can forget that we are citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven. We need to stay awake and be alert and not get distracted. We need to be intentional about His role for us and seeing His kingdom come and His will be done on earth at this time.
Number three: I honestly was surprised when the Lord said the answer to all of this is “Ask”. And so I shared the dream with one of my friends and she said “Well what is it we’re supposed to be asking for?” And I said “Well, ask what the bible says to ask for, His Kingdom to come, His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven, for the nations as Christ’s inheritance, for God himself to thrust out laborers into the harvest field, for the fields are ripe. Exercise your priesthood. I believe that 2010 is the year that we need to activate it and run forward unlike any other time before. Lay hold of your role as his ambassador. Take up prayer and worship in and over your areas of gifting and calling. Be alert, don’t sleep while you’re driving. Ask Him what He wants you to be asking for, and get ready because He might have a surprise for you.
1st Peter 2:5 “But You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, and holy nation, a people belonging to God that you may declare the praises of Him who had called you out of the kingdom of darkness and into His glorious Kingdom of light.” And Matthew 24:37 “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. And they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them away. That is how it will be in the days of the coming of the Son of Man, two men will be working in field, one will be taken, the other left. Two women will be grinding with the hand-mill, one will be taken, the other left. Therefore keep watch because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.”
Amen?

The Lord bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you, Kathleen. Thank you for sharing this word. God will see you and your girls and family through this time, I know. thoughts and prayers go with you.
I am so amazed how He got you back to the U.S. from the foreign field!!
God bless you! Leila
Praying daily for you, Kathleen, and your daughters and family during this very difficult time. My heart goes out to you.
This is the second time that I’ve read this prophetic word. I had forgotten the details of it, but just this week, the Lord spoke to me, and said, “Ask!” He referenced John 15:16 = “You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ASK of the Father in my name, He may give it you.” He is faithful! Amen.
Kathleen,
I am praying for the Holy Spirit to be pouring out God’s comfort into you and your daughter’s hearts! I know that Jesus is with you, therefore I have hope that you will all survive this grieving process. Peace be with you!
Your brother in Christ,
Patrick
Dear Kathleen,
I just read your dream and am praying for you. I loved Wayne deeply. His example was like none other in my first years as a Christian at Last Days in 1979-1980. You are a beautiful woman of God! I send you deep love, Ricko
I confess I have been caught up with the news and what is going on in our world. I wake up and turn on Fox News, and all day I am bombarded by negative information. After discussing with my daughter who expressed concern over my depressed nature, these days. She told me that God did not create us to withstand all the knowledge about what is going on in the world. What he called me to do is remember that my faith is in Jesus and he has a plan for all of us. I am to encourage rather than depress others talking about all this stuff. My daughter is very wise, and I feel today that a load has been removed from my shoulders. I am to pray and know what God has promised. That is what I intend to do, That is my gift! To encourage and lift up others.
Thanks you Kathleen – It is good to be back. I will continue to pray for you and Wayne and your family. May God hold your real tight and close and bring you enouragement and gratitude daily.
Thank you for your strengtha dn fortitude.
In His might name!
Pat
Kathleen – I just today returned from a mission trip to El Salvador and last week – when we were having a recreation day – we came upon an accident. On one side of the road the people were scooping all the spilled sugar into what ever container they had and on the other side of the rod two men were hanging out of the upside cab of the other truck dead to the full view of all and no one helping – I burst into tears and couldn’t stop crying for most of the day for the families of those who had died and the desparation of the people looting the sugar. So your dream is true and is from God. He is also drastically changing the course of my life . I quit my job right befor the missions trip which made no sense to anyone but me and God willing I will be returning to El Salvador to teach English to the missionaries there and their children and to help in the evagelistic dramas. I too was given a strong sense on January 1, 2010 that we are to begin living our lives as if this is really is the day of the Lords return and drop everything else. It was when I was reading my daily devotional and it was about Zacharias being given his voice back at the birth of his son and declaring that it was time to serve the Lord without fear because all of the enemies were taken care of and it was time to prepare the way of the Lord – We have been given the same message to prepare the way of His second coming!!!!! The dream God gave you is a huge confimation to me and one that I needed to take the next step of going into full time missionary work in El Salvador – thank you for sharing Gods’ word to you!!! I hope this encourages you!!! Much Love, Linda
Thanks ,That was very encouraging and just what I needed. I have been frustrated that I did not know what to ASK God. I knew He had me pray but How and What. I have been very busy getting some business started and in God’s will but I have been getting too busy and not spending the time because of my active mind……slow down Beth. And this slowed me down and put my mind to rest. thanks again and May Gos richly bless you and your family.
This is a good word for 2010!

Thank You for sharing this Kathleen. All this busyness that the world is involved-in is to keep us from taking time to pray and meditate on the Word of GOD, and then to take time to listen to what GOD has planned for us to do as HIS humble servants. As Christians we need to be in the Word and on our knees in prayer with HIM daily, the adversary wants us to be caught-up in the world’s busyness so that we don’t do those things that GOD wants us to do as HIS children… to ASK.
Love, Hugs, & Prayers,
Donna Lee
This has come at the right time for me. Number one is so spot on. Thanks for sharing and for blessing me. We had a prayer conference last week, on 11th February and this is what the speaker said, that we should ask God that His kingdom come that His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. May all God’s blessings be yours. Lucia
One of the things I’ve been feeling in my spirit ( there have been multiple deaths of really sick Christians) is that God is taking the weak, the ones who are not strong enough to stand because the time is so near!
Thanks for sharing!
Amen, it’s so vivid!
