October 16, 2022 at 10:56 pmFather, we thank You for always being with us. Grant us strength and courage, God, and help us to become more aware of Your presence.

October 16, 2022 at 10:58 pmSome days it seems like we are living in a world gone mad. With an unjust government, election dishonesty, and the travesty of open borders, we can’t help but shake our heads in disbelief. If that isn’t enough, we are also bombarded with news of a weaponized IRS, our children’s easy access to fentanyl and mass shootings across our nation. These are indeed unprecedented times in our nation. Many are asking, “Where is God? When is He going to show up?”

October 16, 2022 at 10:59 pmThese thoughts and more ran through my mind one night while preparing for bed. That night, the Lord gave me a dream…
spiritdoc1Prayers: 40405Requests: 2401
October 16, 2022 at 10:59 pmIt was probably one of the most ordinary, yet profound, dreams I have ever had. Though uneventful, it seemed to last all night. Nothing unusual happened in the dream. It had no intense revelation. It wasn’t an encounter with God. It was just a dream of everyday, ordinary events like a Day in the Life of Kim kind of dream.

October 16, 2022 at 11:00 pmThroughout the dream I performed normal daily tasks, like laundry, house cleaning, and baking a pie. At one point I twirled a finger through my hair, something I do when I am reading intensely. While it was indeed ordinary, I could clearly feel my emotional state as I performed each of the activities.

October 16, 2022 at 11:01 pmAfter I awoke, I pondered the dream which was still vivid in my mind. What was the purpose? It made no sense, yet I knew this was a dream from God. In time, I knew He would give me understanding.

October 16, 2022 at 11:02 pmAs I went about my day, I realized that without forethought, I was doing some of the exact same things as in my dream. Even the feelings were the same as in my dream. At first, I didn’t pay much attention to it. However, as the day continued, I found this strange occurrence of my actions mimicking the dream happening more and more.

October 16, 2022 at 11:03 pmFinally, as I was sitting at my desk studying, I did a common gesture with my hair which I had also done in the dream. I recognized it felt exactly, and I do mean exactly, as it did the night before in the dream. At that moment, it was as if I was catapulted back into my dream, back into time. I realized that God was indeed speaking to me through this dream along with the events that had taken place during the day. Knowing He was nudging me, I stopped, laid down my pen and asked, “Okay God, what are You speaking to me concerning this dream?”

October 16, 2022 at 11:04 pmHe quickly responded, “People want to know where I am in all this. I am here. But I am also already there, in all your tomorrow’s, I am already there.”

October 16, 2022 at 11:05 pmThat dream quickly became one of my favorite dreams as well as a timely reminder of His faithfulness. Because He is already there.

October 16, 2022 at 11:06 pmBefore we stepped into the chaos of 2020, God was already there. Before the injustices of the election occurred, God was already present. None of this has taken Him by surprise. Even God’s name, Jehovah Shammah, means the Lord is there. God is there.
spiritdoc1Prayers: 40405Requests: 2401
October 16, 2022 at 11:07 pmOur God is already in our tomorrow. His plan, His purpose for His people is written in His Word. We are told in Jeremiah 29:11 that Jehovah-Shammah says, “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” THE LORD IS THERE!! His plans are already set in place.

October 16, 2022 at 11:07 pmWhile we do not know exactly what is to come—He does. While we may be unable to control the future events of our life, we know the one who can. Jehovah-Shammah will walk with us into whatever tomorrow holds.
spiritdoc1Prayers: 40405Requests: 2401
October 16, 2022 at 11:09 pmAnd the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you; He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed (Deut. 31:8). He goes before us. He is already there. In your tomorrow, in my tomorrow – our job is to trust Him. What comfort that brings!😃

October 16, 2022 at 11:10 pmIsaiah 45:2-3 says, “I will go before you and make the rough places smooth; I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars. “I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden wealth of secret places, so that you may know that it is I, The LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by your name….”

October 16, 2022 at 11:10 pmWe need not fear or tremble for He has gone ahead of us to make the rough places smooth. To shatter any door that would try to stop our advancement. He has gone before us to secure our future. That is our God!

October 16, 2022 at 11:11 pmWhile we may not know what tomorrow holds, this one thing we can be assured of; He is already there. Jehovah Shammah is there. That gives me great peace. How about you?

October 17, 2022 at 3:31 amHi Spiritdoc. Yes! This article gives me encouragement. I am very much in agreement with the things you write about. I see the same things. Yet I know that I know that our God is in if all of this. Sometimes I get down and discouraged about what is happening. I try and pull away from watching but then I always come back. It’s scary and horrible and fascinating to see our country in such free fall. It’s happening fast. I am involved somewhat in local politics but sometimes some will say that we don’t need to be involved. That God is higher than all these things. I think that we have a voice and we should be aware and involved. Anyway yes, I am encouraged by this post and many of your posts. Thank you so much. 🙏🏻

October 18, 2022 at 9:05 amHi Spiritdoc, I am encouraged by your application of scripture and prayer to significant events and trends that, if we read or interpret them on isolation, may seem insignificant. Thanks for your example and rallying the family to pray for important issues. Lord we pray for events that oppose your kingdom, that they be redeemed and that we as your followers be found to be salt and light in every day common but significant events, used and abused by the enemy to inflict hurt on your followers, as well as unbelievers alike.

October 18, 2022 at 12:36 pmOh, how the LORD has blessed you, my dear Angel, with the interpretation of His dream!And in turn has shone His light through you to us! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful and encouraging encounter with God! Our society is being changed so quickly, and not for the better. It is very scary, and my heart goes out to those who do not know our Jehovah Shammah. How much more fearful they must feel to be going through this time alone! I can’t begin to imagine! Thank You, Jehovah Shammah, for being there before us and bringing us through these difficult and scary times! Thank You for bringing people like Angel into our lives to shine ✨ Your light through! Please open more eyes, ears and hearts so they can see, hear and understand where You are in this mix! You are always faithful and in control! In Jesus’ precious name, amen! 🙏🙏🙏✨✨✨🕊🕊🕊❤️❤️❤️✝️✝️✝️ P. S. The one question I do have is how can some of these races be so close? It doesn’t make much sense! With inflation running rampant (especially at the gas pump), the increased violent crime and horrendous drug deaths in this country, a person would think anyone in office now would be ousted out easily!?! The blind leading the blind…
