Section 354
Three Prophetic Visions
The three prophetic visions that follow concerned events that were to occur over the two-and-a-half years that followed. The first vision indicated that NCAY would continue its lonely path for a little while longer and that it would come to a place of great blessing, symbolised by a vast reservoir of water, which would be released as a great spiritual anointing over the Assemblies. But prior to this a time of great soberness and seriousness would follow, as shown in the second vision, as the leadership took counsel. The third vision was a warning of persecution to come which began toward the end of 1994 and lasted a full year to the time of the Third Rebellion, trying the qodeshim (saints, set-apart ones) to the very limit of their spiritual endurance [Våler, Østfold, Norway].
1. I was lying upon my bed on the morning of 21 May 1994 when a vision suddenly opened up to my mind.
I. Vision of the Great Reservoir
2. I saw a group of people, whom I recognised as my family and other members of [NCAY], walking along a narrow, rocky gorge.
3. The sides of the valley were steep and rugged, and the valley bottom itself was dry and stoney.
4. As the company of people turned around a bend they were confronted by a massive wall of rocks and rubble about 10 to 20 metres high that blocked their way, making further progress impossible, apparently the result of a natural rock fall.
5. All looked hopeless. And then, quite suddenly, I was lifted up into the air so that I could see beyond the rocky wall, and there before my view was a beautiful reservoir filled with blue, sparkling water of great depth, the waves of which were lapping against almost the very top of the rocky barrier.
6. Surprised and delighted at the sight, I was then gently lowered by the invisible force back onto the dry valley floor after a few seconds, and I found myself among the people, wondering how we could scale the rocky sides of the gorge, and fearful that the waters might spill over the top or break down the wall and so engulf us in a mighty and terrible deluge.
7. The vision then faded away, and I was left to wonder at the interpretation.
8. I understood that our lonely walk would soon be over and that great spiritual resources and blessings lay ready for us to tap, but I did not know what would immediately transpire, nor how we would overcome our problems.
9. Since I had in recent weeks been occupying my mind with the acquisition of land and the settlement of Kadesh by our people, I supposed that the vision might in some way relate to this and to the spiritual needs of [NCAY] in general.
II. Vision of a Solemn Meeting
10. A second vision then opened up before me and I saw leading members of [NCAY] seated behind a large table apparently in conference in a large, almost bare room with a very high ceiling, giving a feeling that matters of great solemnity and high spiritual content were being discussed.
11. Behind the people were several very tall, elongated windows that stretched almost up to the ceiling, and through which a brilliant light was shining. This vision closed quite rapidly.
III. Vision of Coming Persecution
12. Finally, a third vision opened up equally rapidly, almost thrust under my nose, as it were.
13. I saw the distressed face of one of the [NCAY] members with her right arm outstretched as though signalling 'stop'.
14. She was greatly alarmed by something, and seemed to be saying, 'No! no! no!'
15. Whether she was looking at me or beyond me I am not sure, perhaps the latter, as someone or some persons seemed to be giving her great difficulties. This vision also closed very rapidly.
16. I subsequently gave this sister prophetic counsel not to fear the difficulties that would appear to overwhelm her in the near future, for the dark night of persecution would eventually pass and that she, and her persecutors, would be greatly enriched as a result.
Comment
17. Nothing in these visions particularly surprised me as their content had been anticipated prophetically before.
18. However, they served to strengthen my convictions and elerted me to the need to be extra diligent in what was an important transition period in [NCAY's] history. Amen.
