A Dream About the Flood Gates of Heaven opening up

A Dream I had Today:

This afternoon when I took a nap I saw a rain storm coming in from the north east a rain storm like I have never seen before. It was like a flood gate had been opened, water was just pouring down out of Heaven and it washed everything out of its way. It was coming towards me. Then I woke up. I did not understand what it was about. When I told Gloria about it she got word about the song "Let it Rain" before I told her about the flood gates part.

Give ADONAI the glory due his name;

Psalm 29 (Complete Jewish Bible)

1A psalm of David: Give ADONAI his due, you who are godly; give ADONAI his due of glory and strength;2give ADONAI the glory due his name; worship ADONAI in holy splendor.3The voice of ADONAI is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, ADONAI over rushing waters,4the voice of ADONAI in power, the voice of ADONAI in splendor.5The voice of ADONAI cracks the cedars; ADONAI splinters the cedars of the L'vanon6and makes the L'vanon skip like a calf, Siryon like a young wild ox.7The voice of ADONAI flashes fiery flames;8the voice of ADONAI rocks the desert, ADONAI convulses the Kadesh Desert.9The voice of ADONAI causes deer to give birth and strips the forests bare -while in his temple, all cry, "Glory!"10ADONAI sits enthroned above the flood! ADONAI sits enthroned as king forever!11May ADONAI give strength to his people! May ADONAI bless his people with shalom!

Psalm 14 (New International Version)

Psalm 14

For the director of music. Of David.

1 The fool [a] says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
2 The LORD looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.

3 All have turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.

4 Will evildoers never learn— those who devour my people as men eat bread and who do not call on the LORD ?

5 There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous.

6 You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge.

7 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!

Answer to Prayer

The consolidation of peace appears to be happening, since the conflict ended and most of the displaced millions have returned home. Reconciliation movements are gaining steam (with the Church at the forefront), and rebuilding the country is an achievable goal, given the country’s natural resources. There are 20 universities today, where there were at most five when the war ended. Roads have improved so much that journeys which previously took two to three days now take a few hours.

Challenge for Prayer

The Church, despite great growth, has not emerged unscathed from decades of conflict. Much prayer is needed, specifically for:
a) Forgiveness and love in action. The Church must be at the forefront of activities aimed to overcome the longstanding tribal loyalties and partisan politics. Such forgiveness must include many who perpetrated crimes against Christians and Christians who compromised under pressure.
b) The right relationship between Church and state. Religious freedom is a blessing, but Angola has a reputation for having dangerous syncretistic cults that mix elements of Christianity with animistic tribal religions. The government attempts to encourage the work of established and reputable denominations, while limiting the effects of the cults.
c) Christ-like, holy living by followers of the Lord Jesus that commends the gospel to unbelievers and passionately reaches out to their disillusioned, apathetic neighbours – non-practising Christians number in the millions.
d) Unity in the gospel. There is much new growth among Independent congregations and groups unaffiliated with any larger body, but too much work is done in isolation and without partnership. The Angola Evangelical Alliance links 11 denominations and two parachurch organizations for coordinated action. The Council of Christian Churches in Angola (WCC) also draws Christian groups together.

Psalm 13 (New International Version)

Psalm 13

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

1 How long, O LORD ? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?

3 Look on me and answer, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;

4 my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

6 I will sing to the LORD, for he has been good to me.
