The Snake Chain Dream – TRANSCRIPT Dec 14, 2020
hey everybody pastor dana coverstone and i am at nashville arkansas at first islam of god
uh with my good friends and we’re here to unpack a dream and we spent a couple hours last night you can see the marker board behind me
we impact the dream i’ve recently had this is our first time to meet like this and uh so uh we’re excited about it and
hope it’ll be the first of many times but this is john redenbauer redembo and sheree goff
and we are here to share a dream and unpack it so here it is
i saw cherry blossoms in washington dc and there was a brilliant sun cutting through a foggy haze early in
the morning but then there was a bolt of lightning that went across the sky from straight up to the clouds
and a very loud and long lasting clap of thunder that ended with a huge rainfall for just a few moments
but the rain stopped just as suddenly and the sun was out again as if a high noon day
there were silver and gold flecks in the clouds and they were glistening like diamonds the cherry blossom leaves began to fall
off the trees slowly at first and then a hand appeared and began to rip rip them off the trees
and clumps the wind was blowing them up into the air and then a tornado funnel appeared and picked up all the
leaves put them up in the air and then it disappeared and the leaves all fell to the ground and they covered
every square inch of the ground the air then became very dark and gray clouds appeared in the sky and the trees
were leafless and appeared very gnarled and ugly and the health of the trees seemed to be in question but as i got
closer to them i saw the trunk and the limbs of the trees were actually covered in large links of
chains and these chains were about the size of boat chains um and what they must have weighed 100
pounds or hundreds of pounds the leaves on the ground seem to be about a foot deep around the trees
and then i saw a group of men marching in a straight line along the national mall and they were wearing hiking boots
and work clothes or what you would consider to be construction type clothing they each went and stood
close to a to a specific tree they reached down through the leaves which were all dead and brown by now and
they reached down towards the roots of the trees and they grabbed the lowest length of the chain and they began to pull as they began to
pull on that chain their foot their faces were contorted their muscles balls it was a lot of work very intensive
it was if the tree had grown into the chains because as they pulled the bark and the pulp they were
interlinked between the the links of the chain are cracking and popping and exploding off of the
off of the chains these men were sweating they were strained and began dragging the chains behind them back the way they
came on the scene they strained they kept pulling their muscles were physically ripping it was even causing injury to these men as they
pulled these chains it was slowing them down but did not stop them from pulling the chains at all
and i saw them that they walked onto a large map of the united states of america and each man went and laid the
chains down on the boundaries of different states and the states which were represented by horses and
mules and oxen they were just standing there in the outline of all in the interior of all the states
these animals began to push against the chains like they wanted to back away the marching men eventually
connected all their chains together and laid them over the geographical boundaries of each state and those animals were trapped and caged
by the chains and they were trying to kick against them and push against them and jump over but they could not do it
they were trapped there and then a shot was fired into the air and one of the marching men
yelled that will be heard by the whole world and suddenly the air was filled with red
white and blue lightning and the crack of thunder was very loud and the trees began to bleed from the
roots and the blood of that tree of the blood that was coming from those trees it began to stain the ground under it
until it flowed to every state boundary and through every state on the map
and the chains then cooled back like live snakes until the blood had covered the entire outlay of the state so it
just kind of moved from where the trees were in washington and it just moved steadily and slowly on
until it covered all the ground of the map on the boundary lines the heads on the chains kept guarding
the boundaries and hissing and spitting anything that got close to them and biting those that got too close
i then saw people who appeared to be bitten and once they were bitten these people would go to the ground and start having
seizures and foaming at the mouth and then they would die but there were some that knelt in prayer
and after they had prayed on one knee then they approached the snake chains with a rush and no fear
and some of these people were bit by the chain snakes but they did not go down others were bit and did go down but they
did not die and they returned to praying before they approached the boundary again they were in pain but they kept walking
to pass the boundaries praying as they walked through and they also seemed determined to find
other people praying and joining with them to pray as a larger block and when they met in larger groups they
would sing they would lift their hands they would pray they would link arms and they would be shoulder to shoulder
and the main thing i saw with them but they had smiles on their faces there was joy they were appreciative and excited
and even though the snake chains were lifting up behind them and hissing and whipping there were more groups meeting after
crossing the lines to pray and they were growing so every state was covered with people who were praying
and praying together the clouds were still turning with evil but the people were praying and they stood their ground and they prayed
even louder and that was the end of the dream that i had wow yeah yeah quite a dream
quite a shocking dream when you first look at it um obviously very symbolic right
and so you know john brought his whiteboard and we worked on this for probably
actually like three hours last night until our brains were about to explode and
and it’s interesting the symbolism in it um it starts off with this idea of the cherry blossom and i
thought about cherry blossom festival there’s brilliant sun um it’s cutting through the the fog
and um and so this bright day and then there’s a bolt of lightning that comes from the ground
and goes up and splits this is what dana said is we asked him more questions about it
and so lightning coming from the ground instead of coming from the top would be a um a response or a rebellion
from from the ground up and splitting in division and so then the next part of the dream
that says there’s a lot a long and loud clap of thunder and so this clap of
thunder is the voice of god the word of god speaks about that over and over again and the rain fell for just a minute this
is a cleansing but then the rain stopped and the sun shines again
and it’s high noon and there were silver and gold flecks in the cloud and they were glistening
like diamonds and so this is what the lord for me showed me as a spiritual interpretation
was the key for the church’s understanding with this stream um because it starts with
a first mention of just the glory of god a lot of times we see difficult things
coming to the nation we think the devil’s in control everything’s just gone terrible
and we lose hope but behind these dark clouds that are coming there’s this brilliant majesty and plan
of god that he is in the heavens and he is glorious he is not unseated from his throne and
we need to see his marvelous works and look past it
the troubles to see the hope and you see at the end of the dream the people uh kneeling and praying they
had joy right yeah and so you see the strong differentiating between
those who were uh submitted completely to god and had joy those who were being bitten
um and and not dying uh but but it causing them to come to humility and
those who were bitten and and died those were those who um did not
uh look to christ uh for what they needed so the beginning of the stream lays a
type of a foundation but then it takes this hard shift right and do you want me to talk
about the cherry blossom well let’s go back and forth a little bit okay um
i think it’s interesting as we looked up the cherry blossom trees on the national mall where do they come from you discovered that they came in 1912 as
a gift from japan to the united states and initially we had purchased a thousand of them
and then by the time we had all of them put in together the ones that were donated and the ones we purchased
there were i think 3020 right right yeah yeah well and i think as we did research
we found that a thousand of them the once placed along the potomac disappeared whether people stole them or
that they withered and died or whatever and we thought that was really interesting because that left us with
20 20 cherry blossoms which would be a sign for something happening this year i
think one of the other um it’s it’s like at the beginning of the interpretation there were things that we uncovered that
then came back later like this this this discovery of the cherry blossoms which we talk about more
about in a minute but one of the things that i heard was um march and then i heard march of dimes
and so we felt that that was kind of a throwback to dana’s coin dream and we’re like well who’s on
the dining and we looked it up and it was franklin delano roosevelt well that comes back in later
too um and uh and the the part about the tree is
bleeding you know i think one of the first things that we said at the very beginning is it reminds me of that quote
and i didn’t remember it was a quote from thomas jefferson i actually remembered it from sean connery in the movie the rock where
he said the tree of liberty must periodically be refreshed by the blood of patriots and
tyrants and i’m like well considering everything that’s happening in america right now it’s just really interesting
that you saw trees bleeding at the root and so that was interesting because that set
again just kind of another seed into the interpretation which we see happen a lot where we began talking about just a
reference to thomas jefferson which is we developed a story of the cherry blossoms
if you want to go into that it all comes back yeah um let’s go on further down the dream to
where it gets to this particular part so it makes sense um well first of all there’s this season
that that we come into the uh the the leaves are falling and then there’s these hands and they’re
not it’s not the hand of god it’s not coming from above it’s coming from below it’s like men’s hand and they begin stripping the leaves and
the flowers and everything off of the tree um there’s a tornado that that picks it up and throws it uh
back down and so we see this um stripping this pruning by the hands of man uh the the the
leaves falling to the ground is this settling of these these things that we’re going to see um which is a pruning
right the bible says that we have to be pruned at times and so then there’s dark clouds you see
the tree trunks that are all gnarled and uh and then you see these uh boat-sized
chains and so with these chains as we looked up um uh the cherry blossom
and the and the history of the street in our nation we came across these um in 19 i put that in 1938
now we we we got the church the the chair the cherry trees in 1912 and planted them around the
national mall in that area and in 1938 um there’s a decision to ma uh to make
the jefferson monument and when that decision was announced there were 50
women who wore chains you have that picture just a second i don’t know if you can
see this i’m not very tech savvy but here we go there’s there’s these women that have
these chains you can see them holding these chains and it’s 50 women that they decided they
were going to protest um the removal of these trees which they weren’t talking about
chopping them down necessarily they were going to move them but this was just so impactful the number 15
50 is the year of jubilee it was women they had these changed they
were opposing this national monument being built because they wanted to save the trees
and it’s like the beginning of a movement of kind of a a rebellion
and um women rising up to oppose things that are happening in our
nation and it just seemed very significant what what did you get on that john well what i thought was super
interesting was um the date first of all was 1938 that it happened
and of course that was during the presidency of franklin delano roosevelt which relates back to the march of dimes and
he’s on the dime what i also thought was really interesting um and i haven’t researched this fully yet
but is the inauguration day used to be march 4th and for the first term of uh
of fdr it was he was inaugurated on march 4th the second inauguration they changed the
inauguration from march 4th to january 20th which is super interesting because i feel like there’s
only two dates on the calendar that are actual commands there’s march 1st
and march 4th you know and we changed it from march 4th to january 20th and you know again i
want to do some more research on the significance of those dates the first thing that pops in my head right away especially for this year
is i believe the very first case of coven 19 was discovered in america on
january 20th of 2020 so i just think that’s that’s really interesting symbolically with those
numbers um you have march 4th right which i just think about
marching forth right going going forward as the army of the lord or whatever um
and you also have the numbers three which is the number for the trinity and four which is the number for earth
which is the four corners of the earth but then it’s changed to january of 2020 and that’s also when the
virus started and so 20 is is this number for testing being fully tested and so one is
the number for for beginning and so it’s this element of a double emphasis of it’s a beginning of a testing
um and and and we’re being tested because of this rebellion right we have a double
emphasis of the rebellion uh when we have the lightning coming up from the ground and splitting
and then we have these um the the history of this cherry tree and these women you know with chains trying to um
keep something from happen and of course chains represent you know bondage there’s there’s not a
lot of good meanings for change chains in a negative sense
like this because this is a negative scene a negative dream so chains would be um there is things
linked together now if it was positive it would be the word of god word you know uh line upon line precept upon precept
but since it’s not a a positive it’s a negative which means deception you know what is the the the lies that
the enemy has us bound with yeah yeah i think it’s super interesting the symbology there with the
chains um didn’t you say the chains were black the chains were black yes no rust okay just saw black and we see
the trees if you go back to what is it daniel 4 daniel 5 the dream of nebuchadnezzar trees represented the king or leadership
in particular and so since there’s you know 2 000 or 3 000 trees i think
they represent not just a senior executive like the president but congress and the supreme court and and
just governors you know all kinds of leaders in the united states but i think it’s really
interesting that the the chains were embedded into the trees
so it’s almost like a systemic problem that grew up with the leaders of this country and you
know we immediately thought of because you said they were like boat chains and i heard they came over in chains on
boats so of course they’re talking about the transatlantic slave trade and the idea of um
racism systemic racism embedded into leadership you know and and i love of
course the analogy of the the 50 men who are pulling out the chains
and the trees are are being pruned i think um to back up just a little bit
um just to see a few kind of plays on words we saw dc and i heard marvel you know there’s
basically two major types of comic series there’s dc and marvel and i heard uh you know the verse all
his ways are marvelous you know and that’s where you were talking about the glory of god being revealed in the trees and
the sun was shining down and it was cutting through the foggy haze while the foggy haze to me represents
foggy bottom or the deep state because the deep state is said to reside particularly a lot in the state
department the state department area is called foggy bottom and so cutting through the
haze the foggy haze i saw as exposure and again there’s another dream that
that dana had where he saw the word discovery over the capital so we’re talking about exposure and then
right after that we see the trees being stripped of their leaves yeah which i think has to do
initially we talked about that being potentially media but it’s just a further stripping away
of the glory of leadership where we think that you know these leaders are are great and they got it all together and then
you know something comes out and we begin to see kind of the nakedness and the barrenness but they weren’t uprooted and it wasn’t
like you know shari you brought this up it wasn’t like in daniel 4 where the tree was cut off and then the trunk was shackled
they weren’t cut down and and they weren’t uprooted so i think there’s an opportunity
for leadership in this country and we get into that more um to to change their ways to repent to
be loose from these chains um and and to go a different way yeah i like the draining of the swamp
uh idea in in regards to um there was that clap and then after the
fog the sun hit the fog there was that clap and then there was rain
and so if you got something that’s swampy and nasty if you add more water to it you can actually flush it out and
clean it out and so that’s what god is saying he wants to do for our nation is to clean it and clean it out
and if you’re watching this you know um with with a prophetic type of dream um
there’s layers to it multiple layers and so you know i’m usually looking at
what’s the spiritual application the takeaway for the church john’s looking at what’s the application for
the nation and what does that look like for our leadership and and and dana’s sitting here in the middle
east i just had the video with both of them yeah he’s saying okay but um because of this guy yeah so
there’s there’s uh it’s like we build upon each other with these different ideas this
layer upon layer and following it sometimes can be interesting right yeah
all the elements of god okay well you know we talked about the silver
lining and the gold and the diamonds in the clouds and again reminds me of the benjamin franklin
dream i mean one of the things we see about dreams is they’re not just a sticky note they’re an ongoing conversation
so if you go back and you get all of the like if you’re on dana’s facebook page and you get you could see the transcripts of all of
the dreams which i know a lot of us do then you’re kind of familiar with how god has spoken to this man in other ways
and so you look at the diamonds the silver and the gold is like the silver lining
in the cleansing and the exposure of all of this stuff but the diamonds are the things that we saw in the ben
franklin dream which is the pressure and and what’s the result of that which i think is
and we you know it it is encouragement to look to the future and say what’s
this all leading to because it’s like going to the dentist nobody wants to go there even if you’re not getting a tooth
drilled right you have to hear somebody else it’s not pleasant but you’re doing it for the end result
which is i’m going to have clean nice teeth and maybe they won’t rot out of my head and and so it’s good going into the
dentist office to have that in mind ahead of time otherwise it’s like why am i in this torture chamber i don’t know why i’m
doing this to myself and so we as as believers coming into a season of pressing
um need to keep the future inside also and not be caught off guard by any of
these things okay um so then uh he sees like a a map
of the united states and it’s kind of flat it’s kind of yellow it’s kind of old style and the thought that i had come to me
was just god is mapping some things out for us right he’s making it clear for us
and the lord brought me to um job 36 29 it says can anyone
understand the spreading of the clouds the thundering of his pavilion and then job 37 2 it says
keep listening to the thunder of his voice and the rumbling that comes from his mouth
in other words keep listening and paying attention to his voice and pondering these things
okay in verse 21 it says and now no one looks on the light when it is bright in the skies when the wind has passed
and cleared them in other words we need to pay attention to the things that are
beyond the storms verse 22 says out of the north comes golden splendor
god is clothed with awesome majesty and that goes with what you were just saying
and then 24 says therefore men fear him he does not regard who or what who any
who are wise in their own conceit and so the conclusion of that idea is
um if we behold his wonders and his glories then we’ll have a fear of the lord to do
the right thing it’s a it’s a respectful awesome fear i love the word awesome that’s the word he gave me too it’s just
like the awesomeness of god we need to see that in the midst of this okay
then there was a shot fired in in the air and men uh marching and uh
and the men who are marching yield that will be heard uh by the whole world now the the shot
fired into the air wasn’t by the men who were marching was was it well one of them it was just
a random man put a gun there and fired okay and then uh and then one of the men marching yelled
that will be heard by the whole world yes um do you want to speak to that yeah that’s a throwback to lexington and
concord the start of the revolutionary war you know it was called the shot hurt around the world and there’s been a
couple of dreams lately somebody had a dream that i followed called the shock heard around
the world and somebody else earlier in the year had a dream specifically about
lexington and concord which is why i know that because then we go and we look these symbols up and what does lexington concord mean and um
you know that’s when it all started and so we look at basically a war of revolution
you know and not necessarily a revolution against you know the government or throwing off
like we did with you know 1776 with the revolutionary war and the declaration of independence
um but particularly a purging i think of of leadership um and
and as the dream progresses you know the chains go all across the country it’s a map of the united states so
what was started in dc which could have to do with uh what a lot of people have dubbed the
draining of the swamp which we see needs to happen and we’re seeing all kinds of scandal
that’s coming out everything you know whether you call them allegations or not related to even election interference
but related to leaders in high positions who have been on the take you know and just
all kinds of impropriety and things that are being exposed like one right after another
right now and i believe that you know we talked about this the bible says
that righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to any people and so what i believe that god wants to
do is he wants to to prune again we didn’t see an uprooting we didn’t see a cutting off of
the trees but just like in john 15 you know i am the vine my father is the vine dresser every grant’s in me
that does not bear fruit he takes away every branch of me that does bear fruit he prunes it so that it won’t bear more
fruit so i think it’s it’s not a cutting off like we would think it’s more of a
pruning and a stripping to see the nakedness of the trees laid bare and then when the 50 men and i think
it’s interesting that you saw 50 construction men coming in to pull the chains off
and we saw in the story of the cherry blossom rebellion which we didn’t none of us had ever heard of this when
we started the stream we were looking up how the cherry trees got to washington dc and we see the cherry blossom rebellion thing about
the cherry blossom rebellion is they were clearing the land to build the thomas jefferson memorial
and again that goes back to the phrase where thomas jefferson was the one that said the tree of liberty must often be
refreshed by the blood of tyrants and patriots and i think that’s just a really interesting time but these
50 women chained themselves to the cherry blossom trees and now he sees 50 men marching in a
line coming in and pulling these chains out from the trees and so so we think um what do we
think that that represents well that that’s a that’s a reversal of the the problem in the issue it’s a revealing of
the issue uh that’s at hand um one of the things i got with the shot is if you take a positive meaning of the
shot because the beginning of the dream shows this you know see the glory of god so where’s the glory in the shot
it’s this idea of a declaration towards god and then the and then the marching men
who are doing the destroying who are doing the bondage exposing right
um these are the ones who who who yelled uh that that will be heard around the
whole world and so um i i thought about this idea that sometimes
even the enemy himself will proclaim who we are and what we’re supposed to do
because they’re fearful of it and um and so i see that as a great declaration
um whereas in the in the physical we see it as a terrifying declaration
that you know what does this mean the shot heard around the world that that doesn’t have good implications but in a spirit if we’re fighting if the
kingdom of god suffereth violent and violence and the violent take it by force then this proclamation
is a proclamation that the kingdom of god is at hand and you can possess it and that’s a powerful thing uh but but
in order to possess it you know you know we all know the prayer you know if my people will humble themselves and pray you know repent
then he’ll heal the land and so that’s what we come into with this next part with these chains
that are being uh drug around the borders of the states
it’s a revealing of the bondage that we’ve been in that we haven’t recognized
before and so you can’t be free of sin until you recognize that you’re a sinner
you can’t be free of things that have us tied up and bound up until we can see
what that is and so we at first view it’s a very negative thing it’s like
we see the enemy what looks like putting us into bondage but actually it’s god revealing we were
already in bondage but now you can see it so it’s it’s the enemy showing his hand
and i love when the enemy shows his hand you know i don’t know if you’ve ever had this happen before where it’s like you’re just tormented by this particular
thoughts like oh i must be a horrible person you know and you keep thinking i must be whole you’re repenting and all this stuff and
it’s staying there and then one day you realize no it’s the devil accusing you and it’s a lie and when you have that
real realization it breaks and now you’re like the devil can’t get you there anymore ever because
he’s shown his hand he went just a little too far and when that happens with me i just laugh at the devil i’m just like you
fool you done showed your hand and now you’re gone um so yeah so let’s talk about the
you to talk about the blood yeah well i think i think it’s really interesting you said second chronicles 7 14 because
when you saw the leaves stripped you heard that verse from ezekiel talking about the the tree of life and it said the leaves
were used for the healing of the nations yeah and then at one point there were so many leaves on the ground
before the whirlwind the tornado came by that they were like a foot deep and completely covered the ground
and i thought well if the leaves are used for the healing of the nation and the leaves are on the ground that’s the answer to second chronicles 7
14 the literal healing of the land yeah because if you look down further on that verse it’s not
talking the people it’s talking the land yeah you know and so this is the healing of the land and then we see
we see the blood um that’s that’s coming out of the ground and and we get into that a little bit more
but i love the fact too we heard when you said the shot heard around the world we heard like a starter pistol
like something’s about to start and again the throwback to lexington and concord is we feel like there’s a revolution
that’s about to start and what we see here uh mainly though it could have context in in other areas but what we mainly see
is a spiritual revolution it’s the idea of righteousness returning to the land yeah and that that’s so exciting i mean
first look at the dream i was like oh no but then when you go in there and you let the holy spirit speak to you
and you begin to interpret because this is obviously this is symbolic i mean i’ve never seen chains stand up
like snakes and bite people so i think it’s yeah it’s good to unlock the symbolism in the dream okay
so let’s let’s not let me not skip over um okay you got the blood under the states
too you had a really good point on that yeah uh i don’t want to skip over though
the um let’s see where this is at
it says uh suddenly the air was filled with red white and blue lightning and the crack of loud thunder now this
wasn’t lightning coming up from the ground like before this was coming from the heavens and it was kind of going all over the place and
and what i got for that was this glorious display in the united states you red white and
blue right and also blue can be the color for god in revelation so a revelation of who god is
and then white can be the holy spirit holiness purity so returning to holiness and
purity and then and then red being like redemption jesus the blood of christ
and so we have this symbolism that’s that’s right here um what and it’s and again it’s this
glorious display of god in the heavens to to tell us
you know what he wants us to see and i thought about job okay because um
you know job went through a terrible stripping away but at the end of job he says uh
he says whereas before i had heard about god right ahead knowledge he says now i have seen him
and it was that switch from a head knowledge of god to a real revelation of god that brought him
to the double portion it brought him from kids that were partying and he had a sacrifice for all
the time to kids that were now renowned in the earth and respected it brought him from a
certain level of being able to help people and because he he would help the poor and stuff like that with his wealth
so now he had twice as much he could he could have twice the reach to help the people and help the nations
and so this is what god wants to do for the church yes it’s not going to be fun but that stripping away that pruning is
going to produce something a double a double portion you know which is which is great
okay so the trees begin to bleed and blood was staining the ground until it flowed under each state uh boundary
and um we had another friend with us last night and she had this scripture i want to read it isaiah 26 20 through 21
it says come my people enter in your chambers and shut your doors behind you hide yourself for a little while until
the fury has passed by of course i think about inner chambers is our prayer chamber right
that’s what this all is is a prayer initiative with pastor dana i also thought about his dream where he
saw people shutting the curtains and shutting into their house so he says do this for a little while
and then verse 21 it says for behold the lord is coming out from his place to punish the
inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity and the earth will disclose the bloodshed on it and will no more
cover its slang so this is a an exposure of the bloodshed in our land
that it’s no longer going to be covered it’s going to be exposed
and the purpose of that is redemption it’s cleansing of the land
in order to be right our land has to be cleansed but before it can be cleansed the sin
has to be revealed you can’t be cleansed of a stain you don’t have and so acknowledgement of our blood guiltiness
of all the slain of the earth who were unrighteously slain from natives who we slain when we came
to this nation to slaves who we brought and and many we killed to uh the unborn um we are blood guilty
but the double side of this the other side of it is that it’s the blood of jesus that cleanses
that also so it’s like moses in the wilderness um and and this kind of well let me wait on
that until we get to the chains because that’s yeah well i think it’s really interesting because you saw the
blood flowing underneath the chains to the states and so we put blood under states and
then you know you heard the blood has been understated and i believe that that’s a return again
to the righteousness of the nation to the founding fathers to you know we’re a nation that was formed
on the ideas of freedom liberty and justice they’re all biblical and that came from the bible and a return to that and an exposure of
some deep-rooted things and i think it’s really interesting too the progression of the change what
started as deeply embedded change that you couldn’t even see because they were so embedded in these trees they get
pulled out and they come out of the leadership in dc and then they’re drug out to the states and their
borders around the states and then from there they turn into snakes so what would have been a bondage
type of stronghold at the center of the seat of government in our nation has has also revealed other strongholds
similar that are around the states but then they turn into snakes and snakes are you know it’s almost like a a dumbing
down of the enemy because what starts as a big boat chain stronghold hundreds of pounds that’s
hard to move and it gets down to now you’re just battling snakes which you know you just cut the head off the
snake so i i think that’s really interesting i think it shows the progression of warfare in our land
um but i think it also shows frankly that our that the side of righteousness and and
justice is uh is winning yeah and then and then pastor dana saw these snakes and they would
they would uh these chains they would come up like snake heads and uh and they would bite the people
who were coming uh that direction um but it was interesting there was three classes of people
there was um there was the people who were bitten and who fell to the ground
frothing at the mouth dying there were the people who were bitten but they recovered from it and
they didn’t die and then there were the people who took the knee they prayed before they even approached
it and they weren’t bitten at all and there and these people were looking to cross these lines
so they could be with other people of prayer and so that’s so significant showing the
key to how to overcome the enemy which is preparedness and and prayer
to have our eyes wide open and not just walk into things it also shows the different types of people you have your
sinner you have your lukewarm christian who hopefully will be awakened through this you got to go one way or
the other and then you have those who are diligent who are not harmed by that yeah did you
have any thoughts dana there’s been a real emphasis on prayer
both in the dreams and my heart and the hearts of many others and where we are as a nation right now
prayer is the focus prayer changes things we know that prayer can also hold things back
but i believe god’s trying to wake the church up he’s trying to wake the church up to be aware of the challenges the
difficulties that the trials the fiery trials that are coming coming upon us
and there will be attacks our righteousness will be attacked our righteousness will offend those around us and
it’s not a time to be lukewarm anymore in your faith church attendance although it’s down
because of kobe needs to be at its highest joint you know adventure right now we need to be at a place where we’re
meeting together and loving the lord and and linking arms it’s going to take we’re going to have to fight this together
the days of lone ranger christians and pastors it’s over we need to we need to work together church is working together pastors
working together the body of christ coming together and making a difference and so i’m thankful for these two
uh anything else you guys have on the dream what do you want to share i had one other thought with the snakes biting
i thought about moses in the wilderness when the people were murmuring and complaining that the snakes came out and
bit them and that they had to god told them to put a snake on the cross and that those who looked upon the snake
uh they would be healed of these bites and they wouldn’t die and so this is representative of christ
right it says that as christ as as moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness so must the son of man be
lifted up and so when we look at christ on the cross which we should see is our sin
and when we see our sin then now we can be redeemed from that sin which is this you know emphasis that’s
in this dream over and over again so well in the beauty of what he saw is
he saw the blood at the base of the tree so the idea that jesus was hung on a tree
and that his blood flowed yes and then it flows over the land for the healing of the land it’s literally the blood
that covers you know the land what started with leaves in healing is now the blood
covering and being exposed and i i just believe that this dream is a confirmation of the healing of the land yes
actionable intel what do we think the action will then tell us oh he’s always got to ask me this first
instead of going first it’s the quiz at the end of the dream y’all from john thank you john um
actual intel for the church is keep your eyes on the glory of god he is doing a marvelous
work in this time and it’s an opportunity for those who are really seeking the lord to minister to
others to join with other believers and to see god cleanse and renew the land we need
to be prepared to hold on because it’s not necessarily going to be all sunshine and beautiful all the time
we have to look past those clouds and keep our faith and and we need to continue to repent
um and and to seek the lord and to pray that’s really good that’s really good i
think from a national and political standpoint um didn’t some guy a while back have a
dream about brace yourself that message keeps coming back keeps
coming back keeps coming back the reason that god is showing us this is he’s showing us that exposure is about to happen and if there’s going to
be a mass exposure which is what the stream says of leaders that could be mass arrests that could be
a lot of things coming out at once that may be very disturbing to people i think
there’s probably going to be a lot of stuff that’s said in the news in the media i think there’s going to be stuff that isn’t covered by the media and that is
found out later because of of lawsuits and of justice happening in
a wave of righteousness that sweeps the land and i think there’s the opportunity for people who aren’t
prepared for that to freak out because what we’re talking about some of the allegations that have been
made and the rumblings that we’re hearing from different sources are that the wave of justice and
righteousness could be unprecedented probably in american history because
we’re seeing levels of corruption that have just been allowed to fester and again systemic
roots and chains bondages that have been raised into the leadership on a massive
scale all across the country and these things are being exposed and so when the 50 construction men go in
there and pull them out they say when they pull them out it was to their detriment like they were hurting their muscles
pulling out these chains and so i think there’s an opportunity for for people to be fearful and for
people to feel you know and there’s all kinds of people that are going to try to spin this story
they’re going to talk about i mean i’m reading books because of a dream that dana had on abraham lincoln
i think at one point he had a 27 approval rate you know in 19 1860 his first election
he was elected and there were either nine or ten southern states that he had not one single vote
for him and so there’s there’s forces that like to come in and like to
kind of bad mouth both sides and cause the division and we’ve seen a lot of that in the polarizing environment that we
live in that is the mainstream media but it’s not just the mainstream media it’s also social media
and we see the censorship that’s occurring we see what’s happening in social media we see the selective reporting in the
mainstream media and i tell my friends and i think you know dana
as well i mean it’s okay to kind of read the headlines and be informed but other than that shut the shut the
media off because it can affect your peace and what we need to do
is we need to be centered there’s probably not a lot that we do in particular we’re not the 50 men
necessarily and we’re a lot of us probably aren’t the political leaders of this nation though if you are
i would say repent and if there’s any level of scandal or corruption in your own life you need to get rid of it
um but for the rest of us know that the second chronicles 7 14 the heal our land prayers are
absolutely working this dream is a confirmation of that continue the work to to pray and to agree with other people
continue to be the remnant that is on their knees and as the blood
has been understated before allow that you know preach the gospel share with people and during a very unsettling time which
we’re in right now where we see a lot of things happening that that people can be in fear and
even panicked about we we lean on the lord and we look to the lord as shari said you know jesus hung up on the cross just
like the snake was placed on the pole and and so i think it’s a good dream i think it’s a good message
i think it could mean that there there may be some challenging things some hard things ahead
but i believe it’s the healing of the land and the the cleansing of the nation and righteousness and liberty and
freedom being restored the chains the bondages the strongholds being broken
and even the lies which are the snakes and the deception that led into the bondages and into the
strongholds those are being destroyed as well well let me just encourage too that
in this stream that they’re not um they’re still there and so we gotta keep praying because
it’s they’re still around the states they’re they’re still strong they’re still biting people so
keep praying that was good john yeah believers stay rooted and stay grounded
and employ every opportunity and resource you can to make those roots go deeper and deeper and the people that
are dreaming out i’m hearing from people who are dreaming who’ve never had dreams before and i know there’s there’s a call out there on
from god on people’s hearts to become dream interpreters and so this is this is biblical acts
chapter two peter quoted joe and joe said in the last days i’ll pour my spirit out on all flesh sons and
daughters will prophesy your young men will have visions and your old men will dream dreams so keep dreaming keep retripping
those dreams let god speak to you right now in the supernatural realm to reach the natural world because we
need it more than you know so thanks for listening to us and this has been fun to do and i hope we can do it again soon so god bless
