Isaiah 45:5<\/strong> \u201cI am the\u00a0Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roman 4:17<\/strong> \u201cAs it is written: \u201cI have made you a father of many nations.\u201d\u00a0He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed\u2014the God who gives life\u00a0to the dead and calls\u00a0into being things that were not.\u201d<\/p>\n

Numbers 23:19<\/strong> \u201cGod is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?\u201d<\/p>\n

Hebrews 6:18<\/strong> \u201cso that by two unchangeable things, in which\u00a0it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope\u00a0set before us.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 11:1<\/strong> \u201cNow faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joel 2:28-29<\/strong> \u201cAnd it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29\u00a0And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Acts 2:16-18<\/strong> – But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17\u00a0And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18\u00a0And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:<\/p>\n

God calls\u00a0into being things that were not and He cannot lie.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0God has revealed to us these two things about Himself.\u00a0 They are essential truths to us which are vital to our knowledge of Him. God has also said that in the last days, which Peter declared had started in Acts 2<\/strong>, we now live in the last days, and in our days His Spirit would be poured out on mankind and that young people will see visions and old people will dream dreams from the Lord God. The Apostle Peter in Acts 2 clearly stated that these days as recorded in Joel 2<\/strong> began in their day. Since our days are after his days surely we are in the \u201clast days.\u201d Recorded in Joel 2<\/strong> we see that God, who \u201ccannot lie\u201d said that His Spirit (Holy Spirit) will be poured out on \u201call flesh.\u201d\u00a0 We know that His Spirit has been given to all who love and obey the Lord Jesus. (John 3:36<\/strong>)\u00a0 We also know that we are in the last days since our days are after the days that Peter lived in.\u00a0 Through the prophet Joel we have been told that God\u2019s people during our time, will be filled with the Holy Spirit within and that some young people will have divine visions and some old people will dream divine dreams.\u00a0 So what about us.\u00a0 Have we been having dreams that we don\u2019t where they come from? Has the Lord sent them to us?\u00a0 Should we be, upon the true prophecy of the Lord, considering that as our dreams line up with the Word of God, that we may be given a dream or vision from the Lord? (John 14:8-9<\/strong> \u201c\u00a0Philip said to Him, \u201cLord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.\u201d\u00a09\u00a0Jesus said to him,\u00a0\u201cHave I been with\u00a0you for so long a time, and\u00a0yet\u00a0you have not come to know Me, Philip?\u00a0The one who has seen Me has seen the Father; how\u00a0can\u00a0you say, \u2018Show us the Father\u2019?)<\/p>\n

As we know from Peter\u2019s declaration (Act 2<\/strong>) and from studying biblical prophecies and being aware of the signs of our times we are in the last days for over two thousand years.\u00a0 Who will we believe about the giving of divine dreams and visions?\u00a0 The prophecies of God or the hope lacking teachings of some men?\u00a0 I know whom I will believe in, the written Word of God.\u00a0 How about you?\u00a0 If God is doing this in some, then can He be wanting to do this with you?\u00a0 Know the Word of God and receive.\u00a0 His promises are for you if you belong to Him through Jesus.\u00a0 Know and have Jesus and know and have God. \u00a0Upon my faith in Jesus I believe that this promise from God is for me and for all whom believe in Him.\u00a0 As I believed that Jesus saved me, I, in the same way, believe the full Word of God.\u00a0 Thank you Jesus! Believe in Jesus and follow Him and therefore be saved eternally and prosper spiritually. Praise the Lord!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
