Last night I went to bed wondering and asking the Lord if I’m being too fatalistic these days with my prayer groups. Am I being “fear-mongering”? I believe my dream this morning is from the Holy Spirit to reassure me that I am not but rather just warning people of the spiritual reality. Thank you Jesus for making it clear to me in this dream and to keep on warning believers around my sphere of influence.

In this dream, I saw a healthy, fit and nice looking lady in athletic wear and sneakers. She was well taken care of and used to good lifestyle. She was a Caucasian woman in early to mid-30s. She looked like she was ready to go out for a run in her nice neighborhood around twilight before dinnertime.

I saw a very tall (about 14 feet), strong-looking male figure in white attire. He had a certain glow around him and exuded an authority and strength that was other-worldly. I immediately guessed that he is an angel. He was outside in the neighborhood waiting for her. As she encountered him, she only gave a passing glance without a word to find out what he wanted. As she was going past him, he spoke and warned her to go back home and to not go out for a run. She dismissed this powerful stature of a figure and his warning. She is accustomed to safety and getting her ways. She dismissed his message and jogged away to run her usual route.

Then I was lifted up and had a high aerial view. I saw a large group of evil gangster mob in this nice suburban neighborhood. There was fire and great destruction in the areas that they have passed through. I saw from my viewpoint that this lady was running towards the gang. I knew that she will be terribly gang raped. I hoped that she’ll survive this ordeal. With this thought in mind, then I woke up from my dream.

I believe this lady is America. I believe God is sending clear, strong messages through divine ways to warn the American church. If we do not take the warnings and continue to go about in our own ways and routine, then we will encounter the vicious gang mob.

Yesterday my church had a message from a guest from our Christian and Missionary Alliance network. He spoke about the systematic racism and injustice in our country. He was trying to inspire us to get involved with bringing justice and not staying silent. Though he used bible verses from Isaiah to make his case, the message didn’t sit well with me.

Now that our church service starts at 9am and ends by 10, I’ve been going straight to Times Square Church sermon right after which starts at 10am, both virtual meetings. At TSC, pastor Carter Colon also spoke briefly about systemic racism but it was in the broader context of our country’s sins against God and our turning away from Him. He is organizing a prayer of repentance and returning back to God this coming weekend. He is having this prayer gathering in the very first place, 400 years ago where the Plymouth settlers prayed in their utter weaknesses in their first year of landing in the soil of America. In my opinion, TSC is being consistent with my thoughts and evaluations. We must go back home, halt our activities, and seek repentance and return back to the Lord fully.

Several years ago when many key pastors left my church I was greatly disturbed and prayed about leaving myself. Since I didn’t have a green light from the Lord, I stayed. I was blessed for staying as I grew up much by learning to led the women’s prayer groups. Currently, my soul feels restless again. I will be praying and seeking the Lord if I should continue to remain in my church or plant myself elsewhere. I’ve been here in my church for nearly ten years now. Moving churches is a very serious matter and too many people move without the Lord’s counsel and blessings.

Here is TSC message yesterday that is worth listening for its warning: http://sermons.tsc.nyc/i-heard-the-voice-of-mercy/
