Friday, October 24, 2008, 7:39 a.m. – I woke with this song in my head:
There's Within My Heart a Melody / Luther B. Bridgers
… All my life was wrecked by sin and strife,
Discord filled my heart with pain;
Jesus swept across the broken strings,
Stirred the slumbering chords again…
Feasting on the riches of his grace,
Resting ‘neath his sheltering wing,
Always looking on his smiling face,
That is why I shout and sing.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus…
I also woke from three dreams. I will share the dreams after the scripture so that I can place “my understanding” with each. Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.
I read Ezekiel 22: Jerusalem's Sins
1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 "Son of man, will you judge her? Will you judge this city of bloodshed? Then confront her with all her detestable practices 3 and say: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: O city that brings on herself doom by shedding blood in her midst and defiles herself by making idols, 4 you have become guilty because of the blood you have shed and have become defiled by the idols you have made. You have brought your days to a close, and the end of your years has come. Therefore I will make you an object of scorn to the nations and a laughingstock to all the countries. 5 Those who are near and those who are far away will mock you, O infamous city, full of turmoil.
6 " 'See how each of the princes of Israel who are in you uses his power to shed blood. 7 In you they have treated father and mother with contempt; in you they have oppressed the alien and mistreated the fatherless and the widow. 8 You have despised my holy things and desecrated my Sabbaths. 9 In you are slanderous men bent on shedding blood; in you are those who eat at the mountain shrines and commit lewd acts. 10 In you are those who dishonor their fathers' bed; in you are those who violate women during their period, when they are ceremonially unclean. 11 In you one man commits a detestable offense with his neighbor's wife, another shamefully defiles his daughter-in-law, and another violates his sister, his own father's daughter. 12 In you men accept bribes to shed blood; you take usury and excessive interest and make unjust gain from your neighbors by extortion. And you have forgotten me, declares the Sovereign LORD.
13 " 'I will surely strike my hands together at the unjust gain you have made and at the blood you have shed in your midst. 14 Will your courage endure or your hands be strong in the day I deal with you? I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it. 15 I will disperse you among the nations and scatter you through the countries; and I will put an end to your uncleanness. 16 When you have been defiled in the eyes of the nations, you will know that I am the LORD.' "
… Again the word of the LORD came to me: 24 "Son of man, say to the land, 'You are a land that has had no rain or showers in the day of wrath.' 25 There is a conspiracy of her princes within her like a roaring lion tearing its prey; they devour people, take treasures and precious things and make many widows within her. 26 Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things; they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean; and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27 Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey; they shed blood and kill people to make unjust gain. 28 Her prophets whitewash these deeds for them by false visions and lying divinations. They say, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says'-when the LORD has not spoken. 29 The people of the land practice extortion and commit robbery; they oppress the poor and needy and mistreat the alien, denying them justice.
30 "I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none. 31 So I will pour out my wrath on them and consume them with my fiery anger, bringing down on their own heads all they have done, declares the Sovereign LORD."
DREAM ONE: I went to the store to buy some curtains for our living room windows. I saw the ones I liked. They were high up on some kind of platform and the sales clerk was standing up there in front of them. They were printed curtains with little flowers on them and a beige background. They were the kind with the tie backs. The sales clerk who had assisted me took them down and placed them in a bag for me.
When I got home, I was looking for the receipt because I couldn’t remember paying for the curtains. There were kids playing with the bag, but I finally retrieved it from them. I looked at the receipt, but it appeared I had not paid anything yet. I think the sales clerk was a Christian and that this was some kind of Christian program; some kind of faith system that allowed me to pay later.
Then, the store clerk and another lady were at my house and they hung the curtains up for me in my living room. After the curtains were hung up, I noticed that they both had really long valances on them over the curtains. I had not remembered that from the store. It was ok, but the problem was that the kitchen windows did not have valances. The other lady said she thought that would be ok.
The inside of this “house” reminded me of pictures I have seen of RVs – houses on wheels, like some of the candidates travel around in on the campaign trail. As I stood inside this house and I faced the entry door, the living room was to my right and the eating part of the kitchen with windows above the table was to my left.
I had noticed that the store clerk had some kind of book she was writing in, like an address book. As the store clerk and lady with her got ready to leave, I had to give her my address or to get her address so that I could pay her for the curtains later. END

Islamic group calls on NMGOP to repudiate remarks made by Marcia Stirman

My Understanding: The sales clerk in this dream is Sarah Palin’s stylist. What the Lord is showing me here is that the McCain camp and the RNC are selling and/or promoting this “sugar and spice and everything nice” image of Sarah, but it is just “window dressing” over a “fake” window (truth, knowledge, revelation).
Sarah is standing high up on some kind of platform because she has become the right-wing Christian conservative movement’s idol and many, many Christians are putting her on a pedestal – making her their idol. The curtains, i.e. “window dressing”, are flowery (sweet-talking), the pattern is small (conservative) and they have a beige (dirt-lite) background (hidden behind). The curtains come with “tie backs,” so this window dressing is fluctuating or removable.
My house seems to be America and is related to this road to the White House. I believe the Lord is showing it as transitional with no real foundation – always changing. It has a left side and a right side, but the sides can shift depending upon your perspective. From where I was standing, the LR was to my right, but anyone coming in the door would see the dining area (socialism) as on the right. So, the Lord is showing that the political right and the political left are traveling together in one unit and they are politically and philosophically interchangeable.
This other woman with the stylist at “my” house is this Marcia Stirman, a Republican interior decorator from New Mexico who called Barack Obama a “Muslim socialist.” She helped the stylist put these “curtains” up in the “two windows” (Sarah and John) in the living room (oval office) of my mobile home (mobile, because it is shifting to the left). All of a sudden I realized that the curtains came with long valances. A valance is a piece of drapery across the top of a window to cover the rod from which curtains hang (Encarta). That’s telling! There is a cover-up at the very top politically that hangs down, i.e. it begins at the top but the cover-up is lengthy and involved.
So, as an American citizen and Christian or as the church in America, I have bought this “window dressing” which is now covering up the truth, and I got more than I bargained for because these curtains came with authority above them, perhaps the Free Masons or the One World Order or the Illuminati. I expressed concern that that the windows (candidates) to the left had no valances, but Marcia said “That’s ok.”
I was looking for the receipt to see if I “paid” for these and when I found it, I realized that this was a “buy now, pay later” situation which I was to see as “Christian”. Then, when these ladies got ready to leave, I wanted to get the address of this sales clerk so that I could pay later. What is interesting is that last night, in real life, my daughter and her husband were here. She usually represents the church in my dreams. She had a little book in which she wrote addresses and the address she needed and recorded was that of our military son. So, buying “McCain/Palin” means that we will pay later in human lives. It will cost us dearly! It will cost us our sons and our daughters.
