Dream 695 – Businesses Being Boarded Up

Received on Thursday, April 27, 2023

Communion

Dear Father,

Thank You for another day!  Thank You for all You do.  You are truly the God of all miracles.  It is difficult living daily as a child of God in the midst of such extreme spiritual darkness.  This darkness is now spreading rapidly.  The uptick in evil is becoming more visible each day.  However, several truths straight from You remain in play.  You have control over all things.  The enemy can’t hold You down as he has no authority to do so.

Father, You have granted all authority to Jesus here on Earth.  Since Jesus is in us and is working through us, what then can prevail against us?  Nothing.  Still, here on Earth, it is now hard to even remember the goodness of the former things.  This has fallen to the wicked.  They are so consumed in themselves.  They have no memory.  They neither care for nor remember freedom.  They now want to rob children of their childhoods.

As for my childhood, it was a hard one.  My parental figures were unstable.  One bright spot was a trip I went on with my mom across the USA.  It was six months after my stepdad’s suicide.  It was amazing.  I saw more of America than I ever would have if this hadn’t happened.  When on our trip, we were never mugged nor was our van broken into.  Today, you just never know what will happen.  Things are scary now.

My daughter and I recently had a sign from You that an enemy attack was forthcoming.  It involved me killing two large spiders.  The first spider was in my daughter’s car.  This was easy to kill.  The second spider was in our house.  I used a pole that my husband put together specifically for this.  It is a long pole with the sticky part of the tape sticking out.  This really bothered me as spider killings usually means something serious.

Me:  “Lord, show me how to understand these particular spider signs.”

Jesus:  “I am here.  Yes, this is a sign.  The first spider involved your daughter.  Something you thought was no longer a problem has now resurfaced.  However, it will come to nothing.”

Me:  “What could this be, Lord?  Is it her work?”

Jesus:  “Well, it involves both of you.  What is common.”

Me:  “Her dad.  This happened on his birthday.”

Jesus:  “Very good.  Erin, your words of encouragement to your daughter, words grounded in My Word and My Promises, and the safe place you provided removes the powers of the enemy in all things.  This will therefore all come to nothing.”

Later on in the week, I would have another couple of signs.  The first sign was the passing by of a Bald Eagle.  The second sign was a beautiful Kingfisher sitting on a wire.  This was my mom’s favorite bird.  These two signs are definitely ‘Jesus-sent signs’.  This is a rare sight as well.  I had another dark dream last night…

Sub-Dream 1 “The Shutting Down of Portland OR” begins…

I was walking down a city street at night after it had just rained.  The area was rain soaked.  I think it was the Pearl District in Portland OR.  On the right side of the road, there were large metal garage-type doors being drawn over glass windows.  However, the shops that were once there were now completely gone.  The area was now essentially vacant.  I saw the owner of a building.  I waved, but he ignored me.  The owner of this building was clearly protecting what he had left.

As for the other businesses, there was still activity to the left side of the street.  There was a fabric wholesale showroom and a small fabric printing business that I used to do business with.  They were closing permanently.  They were boxing up company belongings and closing for good.  I stopped in to inquire about a previous owner I knew.  However, they were now gone.

I then went to the next place.  This was a retail store that looked very much like a place I once did some design work for in the 1990s, a place called Daisy Kingdom.  They went out of business in 2004.  My ex-husband’s family worked on their printing for many years in Portland OR.  I was sad to see this other little store closing.  I went over to talk to the Assistant Manager…

Me:  ‘Why are you shutting down your business?”

Manager:  “Mothers in the area are now too afraid to come here.  No one wants to risk it.  We just can’t take all of the robberies.  Customers would get robbed and so would our store.  Our insurance company then jacked up our rates before finally dropping us altogether.  We then couldn’t afford our lease when our rent tripled.”

As I talked to her, moving trucks were loading displays and other items to take them away.  I then came to a business called Office Interiors.  This is where I first worked when I moved to Portland OR in 1991.  There was a builder there that I knew very well.  He seemed distressed about what was happening.  Everywhere I looked, places were closing up, already closed up or destroyed.  It was horrible.  A man bumped into me.

Man:  “You need to get out of here now, as in immediately!  Once these places close for the day and the sun goes done, everything changes and not for the better.”

Sub-Dream 1 over…

Me:  “Father, this is awful.  Portland OR was so beautiful and exciting.  It was so much fun.  When I was there, the only questionable place at night was perhaps the northeast.  It seems that all of the areas are now questionable.  Oh Lord, please help us!”

Jesus:  “Erin, come up!”

He once again spoke to me while I sat in my devotional chair.  His Voice was very clear.

Jesus:  “Erin, I am here.  Now, your life from years ago is etched in your memory.  You gave Me your heart there and I have not forgotten this.  I brought you there unto Me in very unique circumstances.  From there, I have taken you on your faith journey.  As for right now, you write as if all of it is over, that you have now reached the end and that the promises I have given you will not come to pass as you had hoped.

“Well, the only one I agree with is that the promises I have given you will not come to pass as you had hoped.  This is because it will be much greater than you ever imagined.  I am with you.  At the end of each day, you wonder, ‘Is this it?  I miss the home I once knew.  Will my dog Zoey ever be there again?’  You then resign your thoughts to the current state of your place.  You then thank Me for all you have.”

Me:  Crying.  “I am so sorry, Lord.  The times have changed.  My future dreams for a normal family have been changed.  I now plan for the short-term as I believe long-term plans are tenuous at best.  In reality, I am primarily thinking about just Heaven now.”

Jesus:  “Well, Erin, nothing is over until My Father in Heaven says it is over.  Even then, it will only be over for evil and the things of this world.  With Me, all things are made new.  You are to rejoice as the eagle sits and waits for the opportunity to swoop in and catch its fish for the Nest.  The same is true for the Kingfisher.  The two are the same.  They wait, then wait again and then wait some more.

“After all of this waiting, you then wonder, ‘Should I be there or over here?  Where is best?’  Well, best is with Me.  As for these two birds, if I care for what they care for, how much more will I care for what you care for?

“As for Portland OR and other cities, many businesses will close up.  While many businesses will be closing, you are not to worry.  This is because all of it is part of My plan.  Now, what you have been looking for is here.  Erin, I am here!”

Dream over…
