The Apostle Paul...a vow (Acts 18:18), a miraculous empowering of God, and persection! Will this happen to the Bride of Christ?

January - February of 2018

    I had a vision about 5-6 weeks ago, where many people including me were trying to plug in a huge power cord into an outlet.  I understood that this power cord was throughout the whole city, Nation or World...but a large area.  We could not stretch this cord long enough to get it into the outlet.  Suddenly, I saw that my hair had been cut short!  It shook me up, so I did everything I could to try to hide it, and put on makeup and flashy, very large ornate earrings that pierced my ears in a tribal (painful?) kind of way...that part was odd because I had to give my acceptance for this to be done.  When we get pierced from the persecution that may come, we will have to be willing to accept it.
   That day I woke, I processed this dream, and began to seek the Lord about it.  How did this relate to the Word?  Sampson came on my heart.  When his hair was cut, he lost all his power that the Lord had resting upon him.   My first thought was..."Lord, have You drawn Your power from me?"   I cried out to Him, and vowed to the Lord that every time He called me, I would respond and move for Him!  Notice, I said I made a vow....
   Weeks went by and that vision kept plaguing me.  Then when Billy Graham died, and many said a new and powerful move of God was about to come upon His people, it suddenly hit me that Sampson had cried out for the Lord to return that powerful anointing back on to him one more time before Sampson was 'taken out.'
   Then, I chose to fast at the start of this week for 3 days no food or technology.  The Lord was truly in it because I had a supernatural lack of desire for food.  He led me to read through the book of Acts, and when I came to Acts 18:18, it stood out to me that the Apostle Paul had cut his hair in the process of making a vow to God!  WHOA!  I never knew the Apostle Paul had cut his hair to make a vow to God! Did you?  As I read on through the chapters, it says Paul was used in miraculous ways, and last of all, the Lord was telling him that he would be bound for the Name of Jesus, and ultimately a prophet confirmed it.  In the end, he was bound by Gentiles.
   I believe we are coming into similar events where the Bride is vowing right now to God to be faithful against all that will come against them before He returns, and are willing to move at every beck and call by the Lord.  Our faithfulness to Him is stronger than ever!
    Next we are going to see an outpouring of the Spirit so powerful that we are going to move in miracles and healing amongst those around us like we have never experienced before, which will ultimately lead up to a time where some of us may end up bound for the Name of Jesus Christ.
     I believe however all of this will come in quick succession, not the time frame of Paul's day, and just as one church in Revelation 3 is stated to have to be bound for a 10 day period and told to hold out even to death.  I hope before this can happen, the Bride is raptured out, but the Lord has given me a vision that I as an RN am taken from my family.  I end up standing in front of a woman in a jail who has thin white cords around her neck being held by people (who I never looked at) on either side of her.  At that moment, compassion floods over me, and I reach out to put my fingers under the cord to loosen them  and the vision ends.   Will this come to pass?

      Come Lord Jesus Come!
