Vision and Imagination

Posted in Dream, Watchman's Prayer at 1:58 pm by Administrator

Here is the feedback of Vision and Imagination:

Vision most often refers to visual perception, but frequently refers to vision (spirituality) (i.e., inspirational experiences or perceptions believed to come from Lord.
Vision is from Lord

Imagination is the free-will nature of human being (mind, soul), designed by Lord with free-will,
It can be used by Human Being to image evil things,
It can be used to receive the vision from Lord.
So it is spiritual warfare place, saints also must overcome the evil one on imagination area upon Holy Spirit.
While Lord stamps vision on a saint’s mind, it is un-forgettable, saint can receive vision only passively, and Lord has the total authority and credit. It is Holy Spirit willingness and authority to do his work. Saints shall soak our imagination in Lord’s word/teaching; soak our spirit, mind, soul in Holy Father Spirit. This effort will help our imagination area trained to perceive vision from Lord.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagination
Imagination is the ability to form mental images, or the ability to spontaneously generate images within one’s own mind. It helps provide meaning to experience and understanding to knowledge; it is a fundamental facility through which people make sense of the world,[1][2][3] and it also plays a key role in the learning process.[1][4] A basic training for imagination is the listening to storytelling (narrative),[1][5] in which the exactness of the chosen words is the fundamental factor to ‘evoke worlds’.[6]

Imagination can also be expressed through stories such as fairy tales or fantasies. Most famous inventions or entertainment products were created from the inspiration of one’s imagination.

It is accepted as the innate ability and process to invent partial or complete personal realms within the mind from elements derived from sense perceptions of the shared world.[citation needed] The term is technically used in psychology for the process of reviving in the mind, percepts of objects formerly given in sense perception. Since this use of the term conflicts with that of ordinary language, some psychologists have preferred to describe this process as “imaging” or “imagery” or to speak of it as “reproductive” as opposed to “productive” or “constructive” imagination. Imagined images are seen with the “mind’s eye”.

One hypothesis for the evolution of human imagination is that it allowed conscious beings to solve problems (and hence increase an individual’s fitness) by use of mental simulation.

[edit] Description
The common use of the term is for the process of forming in the mind new images which have not been previously experienced, or at least only partially or in different combinations. Some typical examples follow: A child’s imagination is very important and is very fragile.

Fairy tale
Fiction
A form of verisimilitude often invoked in fantasy and science fiction invites readers to pretend such stories are true by referring to objects of the mind such as fictional books or years that do not exist apart from an imaginary world.
Imagination in this sense, not being limited to the acquisition of exact knowledge by the requirements of practical necessity, is, up to a certain point, free from objective restraints. The ability to imagine one’s self in another person’s place is very important to social relations and understanding.

In various spheres, however, even imagination is in practice limited: thus a person whose imaginations do violence to the elementary laws of thought, or to the necessary principles of practical possibility, or to the reasonable probabilities of a given case is regarded as insane.

The same limitations beset imagination in the field of scientific hypothesis. Progress in scientific research is due largely to provisional explanations which are constructed by imagination, but such hypotheses must be framed in relation to previously ascertained facts and in accordance with the principles of the particular science.

Imagination is an experimental partition of the mind used to create theories and ideas based on functions. Taking objects from real perceptions, the imagination uses complex IF-functions to create new or revised ideas. This part of the mind is vital to developing better and easier ways to accomplish old and new tasks. These experimented ideas can be safely conducted inside a virtual world and then, if the idea is probable, and the function is true, the idea can be actualized in reality. Imagination is the key to new development of the mind and can be shared with others, progressing collectively.

[edit] Imagination and perception
From the work of Piaget it is known that perceptions depend on the world view of a person. The world view is the result of arranging perceptions into existing imagery by imagination. Piaget cites the example of a child saying that the moon is following her when she walks around the villige at night. Like this perceptions are integrated into the world view to make sense. Imagination is needed to make sense of perceptions.[7]

[edit] Imagination vs. belief
Imagination differs fundamentally from belief because the subject understands that what is personally invented by the mind does not necessarily impact the course of action taken in the apparently shared world while beliefs are part of what one holds as truths about both the shared and personal worlds. The play of imagination, apart from the obvious limitations (e.g. of avoiding explicit self-contradiction), is conditioned only by the general trend of the mind at a given moment. Belief, on the other hand, is immediately related to practical activity: it is perfectly possible to imagine oneself a millionaire, but unless one believes it one does not, therefore, act as such. Belief endeavours to conform to the subject’s experienced conditions or faith in the possibility of those conditions; whereas imagination as such is specifically free. The dividing line between imagination and belief varies widely in different stages of technological development. Thus someone from a primitive culture who ill frames an ideal reconstruction of the causes of his illness, and attributes it to the hostile magic of an enemy based on faith and tradition rather than science. In ignorance of the science of pathology the subject is satisfied with this explanation, and actually believes in it, sometimes to the point of death, due to what is known as the nocebo effect.

It follows that the learned distinction between imagination and belief depends in practice on religion, tradition, and culture.

[edit] Imagination as a reality
The world as experienced is an interpretation of data arriving from the senses, as such it is perceived as real by contrast to most thoughts and imaginings. This difference is only one of degree and can be altered by several historic causes, namely changes to brain chemistry, hypnosis or other altered states of consciousness, meditation, many hallucinogenic drugs, and electricity applied directly to specific parts of the brain. The difference between imagined and perceived reality can be so imperceptible as to cause acute states of psychosis. Many mental illnesses can be attributed to this inability to distinguish between the sensed and the internally created worlds. Some cultures and traditions even view the apparently shared world as an illusion of the mind as with the Buddhist maya or go to the opposite extreme and accept the imagined and dreamed realms as of equal validity to the apparently shared world as the Australian Aborigines do with their concept of dreamtime.

Imagination, because of having freedom from external limitations, can often become a source of real pleasure and unnecessary suffering. A person of vivid imagination often suffers acutely from the imagined perils besetting friends, relatives, or even strangers such as celebrities. Also crippling fear can result from taking an imagined painful future too seriously.

Imagination can also produce some symptoms of real illnesses. In some cases, they can seem so “real” that specific physical manifestations occur such as rashes and bruises appearing on the skin, as though imagination had passed into belief or the events imagined were actually in progress. See, for example, psychosomatic illness and folie a deux.

It has also been proposed the whole of human cognition is based upon imagination. That is, nothing that we perceive is purely observation but all is a morph between sense and imagination.

[edit] Imagination preceding reality
When two existing perceptions are combined within the mind the resultant third perception referred to as its synthesis and on occasion a fourth called the antithesis, which at that point only exists as part of the imagination, can often become the inspiration for a new invention or technique[citation needed].

Angel Satellite TV

Posted in Watchman's Prayer at 10:20 am by Administrator

God’s TV Station “for India & the East to win souls for Jesus” : “Angel Satellite TV”
“On 01/01, 2003, while waiting upon God, the authoritative voice of the heavenly Father God thundered from the heavens:
‘This is My Channel. This will be My Voice to speak to the nations.’ ”

“The books are opened and also the Book of Life” Revelation 20:12-13

[Artwork by Pat Marvenko Smith, www.revelationillustrated.com, 800.327.7330 ]

“You know, when the Lord called me to start a 24-hour TV channel, very specifically the Lord told me one word, He said, “The channel that you are to start should not be like any other ordinary Christian TV. It should not be like that, it should be for solely the purpose of proclaiming the ‘Second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.’”

And God said, “I will speak prophetically through this channel to the people.”

“So all the programs that we telecast on this channel, they all consists, or speak about, something about the “Second coming of the Jesus Christ.”

See, the events that are going to take place very soon are:

- the coming of the “antichrist”
- the rise of Babylon, the “one world government”
- and the “Mark of the Beast” that is going to come

But three Angel’s message of Revelation, Chapter 14, verses six through ten, that is the work that God has given us to do.

KJV:Revelation

{14:6} And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

{14:7} Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

{14:8} And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

{14:9} And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

{14:10} The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

So, before these events literally take place, the Lord has commanded, that we warn, we warn the world.

And God speaks prophetically through the channel, through the station, through all the programs that we produce, so that when the event takes place, the people will know.

Let me give you one example, I am sure you have heard of the Mark of the Beast, haven’t you?

“Do not take on or in the forehead or on or in right hand!”

KJV:Revelation

{13:16} And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

{ 13:17} And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

{ 13:18} Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

What is the Mark of the Beast? Six—six—six (666), right, everybody agrees? Anybody disagree? —Brother Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj

KJV:Revelation

{13:15} And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

{13:16} And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

{ 13:17} And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

{ 13:18} Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

“Then the Lord Jesus appeared to me in the Spirit and said, “I will now cause the finances to come for Angel TV. I will move the hearts of the people to give.”

Satellite Television: A Fulfillment of Prophecy —

KJV:Zechariah

{5:1} Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.

{5:2} And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.

{5:3} Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.

The dimensions 20 cubits long by 10 cubits wide work out to 30 feet long by 15 feet wide. Behold how marvelously this prophecy has been fulfilled: the flying scroll signifies that satellite.

At the National Association of Broadcasters Convention in the USA, a minister friend of mine called Richard Gazowski was standing by the Hughes Satellite booth. He noticed the picture of a flying scroll on the wall. He asked the man managing the booth what the picture meant.

“That’s the direct broadcast satellite that TV programmes will be broadcast from,’ the man replied. Rev. Gazowski then asked for the size of the satellite. The man said, “I was one of the engineers who helped designed it. Its exact measurements are 30 feet long by 15 feet wide.”

Visitation from Julie Meyer

Posted in Visitation at 10:15 am by Administrator

Visitation from Julie Meyer: Julie Meyer has been a worship leader at the International House of Prayer, Kansas City since 1999.

The Lord came to me and said, “I want you to meet My friends.” I was really excited thinking I was on a journey to meet Isaiah, Jeremiah, Peter, Zechariah, Moses. He took me by the hand and we started flying around in the sky, kind of like a cartoon loop to loop. I was not scared even though I was extremely high above the ground. We were just flying round and I could feel the breeze on my face. I could feel His hand holding my hand and I was so high off of the ground and loved feeling the wind on my face. I was not afraid, just holding onto His hand. All of a sudden I saw His face change. He set His face intently to the earth and we started to head directly to the ground. I looked at Him, I looked at His face and I could see in His eyes and in His face a determination. (Isaiah 50:7 Therefore I have set My face like a flint)

I kept thinking we would surely not hit the ground, but I looked at His face and it was set and I felt this horrible dread come upon me, even though I was holding His hand. We were flying very fast in a head dive toward the ground and He was not looking like He was going to turn around. All of a sudden we exploded right through the ground. I felt the pound on my head. It was like watching an action movie. I could hear the sound of the earth exploding around us like the sound of standing right beside a rocket ship as it blasts off into space. It was deafening. We were traveling right through the earth and the Lord’s face never turned to the left or the right; it was set, straight ahead. I could see with my eyes every moment of coming near the earth, hitting the ground and blasting right through it. I could see the earth, the rock, the water, a burning fire, and I could feel the very tearing and burning of my skin. It was like my skin was really feeling the rock and earth tear my skin as if it was really happening to me. I could feel horrible pain in my dream.

All of a sudden we came to the other side and burst out through the earth. I stood there and I looked down at my body and it was all torn, my skin was torn, and I could feel the pain of it, but it was not about me. Jesus looked at me, right up close in my face, eye to eye, and He said, “I want you to meet My friends.” I was crying because all of the pain. I was thinking surely He would notice how badly I was hurt and how badly my skin was wounded and torn, but He did not. I looked around and it was a very crowded place. I had never been here, but I knew it was India. It had a horrible smell and there were a lot of people everywhere and I was following the Lord. He was not even looking at me. It was like He wanted me to feel the pain of the tear of my skin. There were little children everywhere.

There were beautiful young girls in cages and He was with each one of them. He would just stand there with them. The seemingly forgotten of the earth were those whom the Lord called His friends. I saw children lying on the ground with flies on their skin, and I saw them pass from this horrible life to the next and the minute they awakened in eternity, He was there, for each one, He was there. NOT ONE of them is forgotten in His eyes, not one of them.

The sadness of what I was seeing, along with the agonizing pain my body felt, left me crying and crying. The Lord came over to me and got right up in my face and I thought it would be about me, I thought He would notice my pain, at that moment, but He said, “Until your heart is torn and ripped like your flesh is now, you do not know My friends.” It was absolutely more then I could take in. I was right there watching children die, mothers take their last breath, disease spreading, and young girls being sold and He kept saying, “Until your heart is torn and ripped like your flesh is now, you do not know My friends. You do not know Me.”

Then when I sunk into a heap of tears, to my surprise, He got right into my face, eye to eye and said in a low whisper, “It is time to dance.” He said it like it was His secret weapon, the dance…..

He started doing this dance with His feet, like a stomping. Those perfect feet that revealed the very scars of death and life were dancing this rhythmic, tribal stomp – the feet of the Lord who stomps out injustice. It was the most powerful dance and stomp I have ever witnessed. To watch the Lord himself, with the scars of passion dance upon the injustice of His friends. He said it again, “Until your heart is torn and ripped in two, you do not know My friends. You do not know Me.”

Then He grabbed my hand again and we headed right straight through the center of the earth and again, I could feel the horrible pain of my skin and flesh ripping and tearing right off of my bones and that thunderous sound as we were blasting right through the earth. All of a sudden we were standing in a doctor’s office, like a clinic. My first thought was of myself and how much pain I was in. I felt as if I had no skin on my bones, like it had all been ripped off. He said again, “I want you to meet My friends.” I looked around and I saw a trash can filled with babies. I could see heads and hands and tiny feet and babies filled trashcan after trashcan. Some were still alive and moving, their skin was burned, some of their heads were crushed, some were completely whole, their eyes wide open and starring. I felt as if I was in shock. The Lord looked right up into my eyes with His eyes and He said, “Until your heart is ripped and torn like your flesh, you do not know My friends. These are My friends.” I was standing there as another baby was thrown by his leg into the trash can, a whole baby. I could feel the very thoughts of the Lord.

“Oh the silent of the earth, the seemingly forgotten ones. YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN! YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN! YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN!

They were silent in that room on earth, but they had a voice that has the ear of the Father, God Almighty. Their screams never cease throughout the corridors of eternity. They are day and night and night and day, crying out and they HAVE THE ATTENTION OF HEAVEN. THEY HAVE THE ATTENTION, the Ear OF GOD ALMIGHTY. I started screaming out. “YOU DO THIS NOT IN VAIN, LOU. YOU DO THIS NOT IN VAIN, LOU Engle! YOU DO THIS NOT IN VAIN, LOU!” I could see through the Hall of eternity and that Heaven knew the very name of Lou Engle. Lou knows the friends of the Lord. I could hear the continual cry of the babies throughout the corridors of Heaven, the seemingly silent of the earth, the forgotten of the earth, but they have the ear of the Father and they are day and night and night and day crying out for justice on the strong of the earth, crying out for justice on the very ones that took their lives. But…..in eternity THEY HAVE A VOICE!!! Day and night and night and day…..crying out for justice on the seemingly strong of the earth……and THEY have their FATHER’S EAR! And again, the Lord looked straight into my eyes and said, “Until your heart is ripped and torn like your flesh is now, you do not know My friends, you do not know Me.”

I stood there sobbing and sobbing and then He got right in my face again, right up close to my eyes, and said in a low whisper, “It’s time to dance.” He started that “New Dance” with those perfect feet that tread the high places of the earth, now those feet were dancing and stomping, right in the middle of this abortion clinic. It was so powerful. It was always at the time when I was the most broken and the most undone that He would say, “It is time to dance. It’s time to war, to dance is to war.” He would stomp, with this new rhythm, this stomp with His feet. It was not the two-step, it was the Judge stomping out injustice, with His very own feet and He said, “Just wait until the earth joins me in this dance, few have joined me and I am extending the invitation but you can only dance when your heart is the most torn and broken.”

Then He came up to me again and said, “I want you to meet some of My friends.” And right through the earth we went, yet again. I could barely stand. My heart was broken. My skin was torn. I looked down and it looked as if a bomb had exploded right next to me. We were walking down a very, very busy street. He was ahead of me and I was in so much pain, I wanted Him to walk slower, but it was not about me. He wanted me to feel the pain, because He wanted my heart to KNOW the pain and embrace it and take it as my own. He waited for me to walk right beside him. This place I knew was Israel. At different times I would see Him tip His head at someone, as if to say,”Hello” or “Shalom”. He did not speak, He only tipped His head. He would catch their eye and then tip His head back and I would look at the person He was tipping His head to, and I saw their eyes bulge. I looked inside of them and I could see a light go on. I could see, just in a glance, Jesus opened the eyes of their heart and they could literally SEE Him, as Jesus, the Messiah. I could literally see on the inside of them as we walked down this path in Jerusalem that all of a sudden the eyes of their heart were opened and a small flame started to burn on the inside of them.

Some of the people He tipped his head to I knew were of great authority, heads in the Jewish community – Rabbis. I could literally see in a glance the Lord opening up their eyes; I could see the Lord appearing. He was appearing to some of the top rabbis in the land, and just with a glance and a nod, this flame of revelation started to burn on the depths of the inside, in a second the eyes of their hearts were opened. (Psalms 102:16 For the LORD will rebuild Zion and appear in his glory.)

We followed these Rabbis up to their room and they went up into the upper room of their house and I was watching these Rabbis fall on their knees and cry out, “This Changes EVERYTHING. This changes EVERYTHING.” I could see the Lord go over and start to blow on that tiny ember of revelation on the inside and little by little it started to burn like an unquenchable fire. I could see this small flame of revelation become like ‘fire shut up in their bones.” I saw that this fire would continue to burn until the appointed day would come when these Rabbi’s could hold it in no longer and they would shout it from the top of the mountains, “Yeshua is Messiah”……YESHUA IS MESSIAH!” I actually thought about how we pray for this in our little prayer meetings from Kansas City, that Jesus would appear, appear in His Glory. He really, really is.

I looked over and this was the first time I saw the face of Jesus and He had tears running down His cheeks and I could hear Him saying, “Oh Jerusalem, Oh Jerusalem.” I could feel in my heart the passion and the love that He had for Israel. And I could feel the hurt of a lover when no love is given in return and He looked at me, yet again, and said, “Until your heart is ripped and torn, just like your skin is now, you do not know My friends. You do not know Me.” I could feel deep in my being the depths of love that He had for Israel. Like Jacob loved Rachel, Like Elkanah loved Hannah, yet His passion extended far beyond natural love. I was yet again crying and crying and the salt of my tears stung the wounds of my flesh, yet I could not stop crying and right when I thought I could take nothing more, and I had fallen to a crumpled heap on the floor, He said in a low whisper, “It is time to dance.”

All of a sudden we were right in front of the Wailing Wall and He started again, this stomping, stomp, this rhythm, this dance with those perfect feet, like none I have ever seen. It was always at the point where I felt the most brokenness and grief that He would say, “It is time to dance.” I could feel the presence of power and I could feel the power of this dance, dancing upon injustice. Oh what a sight to see when the Son of God and His perfect feet come spinning around and dancing on injustice. Jesus kept saying, “It’s time to dance. It’s time to dance.” There is a new dance coming, that will just come out of our worship and our hearts for the poor of the earth, for the seemingly forgotten, but whom the Lord calls His friends and just when our hearts are the most broken, THAT is when it is time to dance. Oh, what a sight to see when the King of Kings, the Judge of the earth and His Perfect feet that show the scars of passion, begin to dance and stomp out injustice. It is a literal dance. It is a literal stomp! It is time to dance. And I knew this in my dream as we were walking down the streets of Jerusalem, right up to the wall, where He started His dance. I knew that He was revealing Himself to very, key people in the Jewish community, very high rabbis in the Jewish community even in the middle of the dance. I saw their eyes bulge. I could look inside of them and see their hearts begin to pound. I could see the Lord put inside of them, “a knowing” that He and He alone was the Messiah. For such a time as this the day is coming when the top appointed rabbis of the earth, in the timing of the Lord – He will stir up their hearts and they will explode on the inside and run to the highest places in Jerusalem and shout to all Jerusalem, Yeshua is the Messiah. Yeshua IS MESSIAH!

Blessed Is He who comes in the Name of the Lord. Right now, they are hiding it and asking themselves if it really did happen. It is already set for an appointed time and in these days ahead, He is appearing and opening up the eyes of men’s hearts and then He will come and set their very bones on fire. I could see these rabbis exploding with the word of the Lord, proclaiming His appearing. It is happening. It is set for an appointed time. It is happening today.

Jeremiah 20:9 But if I say, “I will not mention him or speak any more in his name,” his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones.
Then yet again, He said, “Until your heart is torn in two and your heart is ripped in two, just like your flesh is, you do not know My friends.”

It is time to dance
