3/26/05  Experience description:

            The vision began with me standing upon a hill at the head of a huge valley that seemed to be located upon a desert world that was not this Earth. In front of my position as far away from in front of me as I could see, and to the left and right of my position as far as I could see were ranks upon ranks of men dressed in armor. These men were dressed in all manner of armor, similar to what you would see in medieval warfare, but different. They were standing at ease seemingly waiting for an event to take place. I also was dressed in armor and carried a sword at my side. As I surveyed the men standing before me I experienced great pride in them, and their faithfulness in carrying out what we had been called to do. 

By whatever means the vision was communicated to me, I was told that this army was the army that had been called of God to remove Satan, formerly called Lucifer, the Son of the Morning Star from his place, or presence among the children of God that is spoken of in the Bible. I was told that I had been called of God to lead this army, directly under the command of Michael the Archangel. 

As I stood upon the hill, and as the men waited patiently, an argument was taking place in an area to my right, at a lower elevation which allowed me to look down upon the men involved. A group of about one hundred men stood there and the argument taking place involved half of the one hundred who sided with me, and the other half of the men who sided against me. It was made known to me that these men involved in the argument were the commanders of this great army arrayed before us.

The half of the commanders against me were arguing against the army being sent up against Satan because he was too powerful and we could not defeat him. The other half were arguing that we had been called of God to make war against Satan and defeat him. This argument raged on with great intensity as each side gave their respective points either for or against. Some of the comments from those arguing against it were, "Have you seen him he is too powerful and it is we who will be defeated." and many arguments of a negative nature. 

I stood upon my hill and listened with little interest in what was being said, and a little disgusted at it. After the argument raged for some time and then suddenly stopped. The leader of the opposition group of commanders turned towards me and said, "You, you were called by God to lead this army, what do you say?" I turned towards the speaker and said, "I have never had one doubt about pursuing this course which we agreed to pursue, we will march upon Satan and his hordes and defeat them." 

This seemed to turn the tide in favor of continuing our course, and the opposition seemed resigned to our mission. I then ordered the group of commanders to return to their units and prepare to march. It took a short time for this to happen and then I gave the command to march, and turning towards a rugged jagged range of mountains in the background started towards them.  

This world that we found ourselves in, marching to fight against Satan was not our home, it was a place foreign to all of us in the army. The world was very desolate like unto the deserts of Earth, but different. The sky had a golden cast to it, and it was very bright but I did not experience any oppressive heat.

The bodies that we possessed were our spiritual bodies that we possessed before we came to this Earth, and were just as tangible to us as the ones we have here on Earth, and the war we were preparing to fight was a very physical one in every respect. These spiritual bodies were the same ones that inhabit our bodies upon earth. 

As the great army began to follow me up the slopes of the great and jagged mountain range, I turned around often to admire the sheer size of it and the great force that it represented. I continued to have feelings of great pride at the quality of men they were, it seemed to me that each of them was undefeatable.

We marched doggedly toward the crest of the jagged peaks in the distance, and I could hear the sound of armor clanking against swords and shields and noise of many hundreds of thousands of feet hitting the ground as we marched. I had no sense as to how large the army was, but it seemed innumerable in size. 

I possessed no certain comprehension of time during the dream, but after what seemed a long time I was the first one to reach the crest of the peaks and look beyond them to a great barren plain that stretched off into the distant many miles. What I saw shocked me beyond my comprehension, for about fifty miles away and situated in the middle of the great plain was a huge city that glowed white in the bright sunlight. I appeared to be stuccoes a bright white that glowed like a diamond in the distance. It appeared to be shaped in the form of a rectangle with a set of huge double doors situated in the center of the city walls. This was remarkable, but what was more remarkable was that situated in the center of the city was a huge golden throne, and seated upon the throne was Satan himself. He was very handsome with clear white skin, black hair and well trimmed beard. He was dressed in black and vermillion robes of the finest silk, but the most astonishing feature he possessed were his eyes. His eyes were like fire and as he overlooked his domain the fire shot forth like a beam of light that saw everything before it. Many years after this vision took place when I saw the last episode of Lord of the Rings I was amazed at how much the great gates and the tower with the eye in the background in the movie resembled my vision.  

I was shocked at what I saw, but I suddenly realized that if I hesitated in the least, the army might not follow me towards this great enemy and so I continued off of the backside of the jagged peaks like nothing was wrong. I was concerned but true to form the army followed, there were some negative comments from the men as they too saw the sight, but they followed me faithfully off of the other side of the mountain.  

I soon reached the plain and turning to look at the army realized that it was strung out too much and so I called a halt and waited until the furthest part of the army crossed over the peaks. When this was accomplished we continued our march towards the great walled city, and as we began to approach it Satan raised his head and acted as though he had just become aware of the army approaching his city. His eyes shooting rays of fire he raised his arm and speaking in a voice that seemed to rumble the ground underneath us he pointed his finger at me in the lead and said, "Do you know who I am ?, you cannot defeat me." His voice caused my skin to crawl, but I said, "Yes I know who you are, and we have been commanded by God to defeat you and cast you out of our presence and this we shall do." 

When I said those words the huge gate to the city opened up and the screaming horded of Satan ran screaming towards us with hatred in their eyes determined to defeat us. The battle that ensued was a physical battle as I have described before, but we did not fight to kill one another; we fought to subdue only. When an evil follower of Satan was defeated by the sword, he was bound with a binding of which I cannot adequately describe. As we did this we left them strewn upon the ground, and went onto the next antagonist. The men were fighting like dragons determined to defeat the other in a great desperate battle of gigantic proportions. 

I sent my units into battle with all of the strategy that I possessed, but it soon became apparent to me that we were being overrun by the enemy whose numbers were far greater than ours. The individual commanders sent runners back to my position for instructions, but soon even the commanders were running away from the enemy, and as they reached me they shouted comments such as, "We told you so, look what a mess you have gotten us into, oh what a fool you are, etc. as they ran by me. I tried with all of my might to stop the men from leaving but all but the bravest stayed by me side to fight back the hordes of Satan's followers. 

The next thing that happened is the strangest part of the dream, but also the most sacred. Something came over me that I cannot describe, a power began to build within me until I thought I would be destroyed by it before the enemy did so. Then suddenly a bolt of pure energy shot from the index finger of my left hand, and struck the great walled city and the entire scene blew up like an atom bomb had struck it. Debris from the city was blown many thousands of feet into the air, and there was dust everywhere. I began to look at the end of my finger and wonder where this power had come from, and I must admit to being total dumbfounded by what had just happened. The only people standing were the men left with me and all we could do was meander around in a stupor trying to figure out what had just happened. 

While we were standing there contemplating the scenes of destruction around us, out of the dust came a short little man dressed exactly like Satan on the throne. In fact this was who he was, but his facade of power had been stripped away from him, and he stood before use a normal man like us. He wended his way through the crowd of my men in a very haughty, pompous, arrogant way his right arm clutching the front of the robes he wore and his nose in the air. He walked up to me and said, "Some day you'll pay, some day you'll pay." turned sharply on is heels and walked away from me. He was such a ridiculous sight that some of the men began to laugh at him and swat him on the backside with the flats of their swords. I felt a chill go up my spine and I commanded them to let him go his way unmolested. 

This vision took place in living color, and I know that most of what I experienced was symbolic and only meant for my understanding, but much of it was literal and I took it as such. This vision is true and I testify to the truth of it in the name of the Great God that I serve. It was given to me at a difficult time in my life to encourage me to hold on. Satan has "plowed my path" since I was born on this Earth and he will do so until the day I die. He and his followers dwell upon the Earth in spiritual bodies to provide the opposition we need here to grow and excel, and I have felt of his wrath towards me for what I participated in in my pre-existent life. 

10/24/04  Experience description:   

            The angelic male being entered my bedroom, and beckoned to me to follow him. I left my body and followed him out into the hallway of our home, and past the bedrooms of my children and then we walked through the front door without opening it. The being grabbed my hand and we began to ascend into the sky slowly. I remember seeing the lights of Blythe, California across the river in the distance as we rose slowly through the air. Gradually we began to move faster thought the air until I began to realize that I was watching the earth slowly become smaller, much like I had seen happen on film taken of manned rockets leaving the earth.

As we ascended a voice spoke directly to me, and I knew the voice to be the voice of God. He said, "Your wife troubles me exceedingly about you." I instantly understood him to mean that the experience that was happening to me was happening because of the prayers of my wife who was very concerned about me. I was a police officer involved in a traumatic shooting episode that happened to me in which my good friend lost his left eye and was shot four times in the back by a bank robber. I wounded and captured his assailant, but failed to kill him as I intended and I suffered criticism and was ostracized by my fellow officers for not killing him. This event had deeply disillusioned me and I fell off of the deep end and almost lost my family. My wife prayed constantly for me, that my faith would be restored.

God spoke many things to me besides what I remember Him saying, which I cannot recall. 

The Angelic messenger and I traveled through space and past many many planets for what seemed like a long time and many light years away, when suddenly I saw a foggy planet in our way. We entered the fog and began to descend towards the planet surface. Upon the surface of the planet I saw that there were large beautiful trees that looked like a jungle. We entered this jungle and traveled parallel along the surface until we came to a huge building that blocked our forward progress. The base of the building was so large that I could not see a corner in any direction. We began to ascend upwards along the surface of the building for a very long time. I have no idea how tall it was. Finally we came to the top of the building. We rose a little bit above the top of the building and above the mist that partially concealed the top of the building, just as a sun began to rise in the distance. The sunlight lit the top of the building and I was able to see that the roof of the building was surrounded by a solid wall of about ten feet tall. This wall concealed a beautiful garden located upon the roof of the building that looked to be 20 acres in size. There were beautiful trees up against the wall, and vines growing up it, and within the walled section there were rows of flowers of every kind, and fruit trees. 

On the end of the building furthest away from our location there was a large building that was a wide as the top of the building, three of it's walls were the continuation of the outside walls of the huge building, and had the same angle. The walls of the building were about fifty feet high, and then there was a flat roof. The fourth wall of the building was glass and faced the garden. Whoever lived in this magnificent house had a beautiful view of their garden.

About three feet below the roof of the house a line of what appeared to be solid gold went all around the two sides of the building I could see. 

We flew towards the building and then I noticed that on the side we approached there was a double door about thirty feet tall, and which was completely covered from top to bottom with solid gold, with beautiful figures molded into it in bas-relief. As we approached the door opened which allowed us access to the interior of the building. We landing just inside the door on the polished marble floors that extended throughout the building. My angelic companion left me at the huge doors and cautioned me not to move, and told me that he would tell, "them that I was here", and then return. While he was gone I was able to see the interior was completely covered from floor to ceiling with the most beautiful yet austere marble, with very little decoration. 

A short time later the messenger returned and said, "They will see you now." I then followed him through the door and into the garden area. I saw a man in a plain brown robe kneeling in the garden digging it with a trowel. He looked up at me, stood up and brushed the dirt from his knees and walked towards me with His arms open. I knew Him instantly, he was my Father, the Father of my spirit. I ran into His outstretched arms. I felt the greatest most pure love emanating from Him that I have ever felt, and I could feel it healing my spirit. I cried like a child and He comforted me, and soothed me. Then He spoke to me about what had happened to me on the Earth, and how I must return and change my life. He told me that my wife was greatly loved by Him and that she deserved better from me. Many things He told me which I cannot repeat, because of their sacredness. 

He released me from His hold and with His left arm pointed towards a woman that I had not seen earlier who was standing close to the wall surrounding the garden. She was the most beautiful person I have ever seen she was wearing a beautiful gown, her hair was platinum blond and long, and when I saw her I ran to her and she folded me in her arms where once again I cried like a baby. She was my Heavenly Mother, the Mother of my spirit who had reared me from my birth until my journey to Earth to inhabit my Earthly body. She said to me, "You are such a special person, I heard your voice the day you were born," meaning the day I was born into my body. She said, "Satan has plowed your pathway from your birth, and she cautioned me to beware because Satan hated me and would do anything to defeat me on the Earth. She also told me many things that are too sacred to repeat, and She healed me in a very wonderful way, in a way only a mother can do.  

I reluctantly parted from her and went to another group of people who loved me and I feel that many of them were deceased family members who told me many things that will happen in the future, but I do not remember much of what they say until it happens and then I remember that I was warned about the occurrence.
