Third of Three Promised Throne Room Trance Visions…

On Saturday, October 22, , the evening service in his

church in Alabama, Pastor Steven Shelley had the long-awaited third Throne

Room trance vision that had been promised by the Angel of the Lord in two

previous trance visions in . In the climax of this experience

he was brought before the Throne to the very feet of Y'shua (Jesus), our

Messiah, who then spoke to him!

He began to go into the vision during the worship time.

Some of the brothers carried him to his office behind the sanctuary

where he could be made more comfortable while the saints continued to worship

to keep the anointed atmosphere. The vision lasted for about two

hours.

The next morning in the Sunday service he shared with the

congregation much of what he experienced. (The next day he went to

Iceland to preach on the Gospel Channel, which broadcasts via cable to the

UK and via satellite to Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.)

Here are some major excerpts from his testimony:

Thank you for praying for me. I need prayers this

morning. I'm not feeling one-hundred percent. But in the Spirit I'm

feeling 200%. Just tired. I didn't rest well last night at all.

My wife said this morning, "How are you going to remember

all the things you didn't tell, you didn't say?"

And I said, "Oh, I'll remember them because they rang over

and over and over and over again all night long, so I won't be able to forget

them."

I just feel sluggish. But we'll get through this

because I know you're anxious to hear a little piece. That's all I can give

you this morning. But it's more than you had yesterday.

Deuteronomy chapter 31. I'm going to read just where

I was planning to read this morning anyway before the Lord came and gave us

this wonderful blessing - something that we have waited on for seven years.

The Lord spoke to us and said, "There'll be three visions

in sequence." Two were just a few months apart, January to July apart.

And then it has been seven years.

I believe the seven years is a sign. The reason

it took seven years is a sign. And I also believe that the season that

we had this vision was a sign. This is Succot. This is when the

Lord Jesus was born. He was born during this time - not

Christmas-time, but during this time.

I heard someone say that Jesus didn't fulfill the Feast of

the Tabernacles.

Oh, but He did fulfill a portion of the Feast. God

came down and tabernacled in the flesh of a little baby. But He's

going to fulfill it in great fullness and reality around the corner where

the Bible said, "And God Himself . . ." He's going to tabernacle with

man. And God Himself is going to wipe away the tears from their eyes

- a literal fulfillment of these things.

[At this point, Pastor Shelley preached a short message

about how the Feast of Tabernacles is the Feast of the Open Book. God commanded the children of Israel to gather together every seven

years at the time of the Feast of Tabernacles and read the Torah, the

Instructions of the Lord. The "Book" was to be "opened" to them so

that "they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the Lord your God,

and observe to do all the words of this law." (Deuteronomy 31:10-13)]

Thank you for pulling in the Spirit, praying. I know

some don't understand yet. Some of you have joined us in the past

seven years. You don't understand perhaps what it really means, why

we're talking about it all the time. But you can surely get a hold of

it, too.

My idea was that we would leave the streaming on if I was

to go out. But they didn't know whether I was going to go out or not.

I remember hearing Brother Enzo ask one time, and I said, "In a little

while," or "Not yet," or something like that. And then I don't

remember much anything else.

For a little while I think I remember being moved.

How could you miss that? I wanted to use my legs. I tried to

use my legs, but they weren't all there. So they just picked me up and

carried me out.

I appreciate those who were in the room, although they were

a noisy bunch. I'm so glad that they were there to help to record and

to do so many different things. When I finally came to, I had a

microphone on my chest, two video cameras on my cheek and a tape recorder in

my ear.

You know, I can't help but laugh because I think, "Moses

didn't get this much press, you know. Moses didn't have all the . . ."

My, technology has come a long way to help us record visitations.

But anyway, it's just all precious. And you'll never

know what it means, those simple things. It means a lot to me

because it means that somebody believes, and somebody wants to know, and

somebody takes it real and serious. And that's a tremendous vote

of confidence. And I need it during these kinds of times.

We've known for some time that God was about to do

something. A few Sunday nights ago I felt the vision coming - just

wasn't quite time.

Early yesterday morning the thought crossed my mind,

"Perhaps tonight, today," because I remembered that many of these visions had

come on a weekend before I was leaving on a Monday to go overseas.

And I thought, "Maybe."

And I came over here about . . . I think it was ten minutes

after two when I got here. I brought my church clothes with me.

And the first thing I did, I took off my shoes. I came into the

sanctuary. I started praying a little bit. And I felt the

wonderful Presence of the Lord.

And then I finished. I thought of things I needed to

do to get ready for my trip from my office - sermon notes and things.

And I started doing that, and in a few minutes I felt the nudge of the

Lord again, pulling me into the sanctuary. And I came back in here

and I'd no more than got in, He just came so wonderful, so sweet.

And prayer just rolled. Tears just immediately came. And a

prayer just rolled out of my spirit.

And I don't know if I've ever touched the Lord that

quick. Because in the first two minutes I felt like I would

agonize an hour, you know. It was heavy Presence. And I

thought, "This is the time to pray."

But I had no more than prayed just a few minutes and the

peace came. And I didn't have to agonize. I didn't have to pray

any more. It was just there. God had done it. Whatever

it was I was going to ask, He had already done it.

And I just wiped my tears and went on back in. It

was over. And it made me wonder, maybe, if God was going to do

something.

And then in the early part of the service those pictures

started flashing by. Things just fly by me - sitting still,

standing some of the time, and catch over here like this and cross there like

that - little pictures.

If I described some of them, it wouldn't mean much to you

at all. I saw something like a hammer go flying by. I know that

sounds very strange, but it's preparing me for something. I

felt like something . . .

And I was sitting down and I sensed . . . Brother

Enzo was leading the singing and Brother Greeley was over there behind me.

And I motioned to him and I said, "Come here." And he came.

And I said something like this. "I feel something

very different. Just watch real close. I feel something

very different. I'm not sure."

And it wasn't so long after that. I don't even know

exactly what song was being sung or what was going on. But these

little flashes would get longer and longer. And it would start

over here like this and play out a little something, and start over here and

they're just coming down like that.

It doesn't mean anything to anybody, but I have so many

people ask me, "How does a vision come and what does it look like, and so

forth?" So that's a little information.

And then all of a sudden it just filled the whole screen

of my mind - just filled the whole screen. In other words, I

couldn't see anything else any more except this vision had started - only

looking over a beautiful, beautiful scene, almost like out in a forest.

And I came kind of over to the top of a little mountain.

I'm pretty sure I was still on the platform then. And I looked

down and I saw again, in the distance, Mount Zion.

And only one thing really stands out. And that was

that I never expected to be at Mount Zion. I expected to be back

crossing the River. So that was a little bit of a shock to me.

[Pastor Shelley has now had 9 major trance visions. The first one was on June 4, during Communion in their Sunday

night service. It is now obvious that all the visions are connected.

In this vision, he saw spiritual Mount Zion as a great

pyramid, symbolic of the City of God. He saw Mount Zion having birth

pains, convulsing in spasms. A Voice told him that it was birthing

the virtues of Jesus Christ in the Bride so that she could come into her

perfection. (2 Peter 1:5-7)

In a series of messages during his Summer Campmeeting ,

Pastor Shelley shared all 8 of the prior trance visions. These

messages are now available in MP3 format on his website

I remember Brother Enzo coming. And I felt him put

his hands on my shoulder and I heard him ask something about the platform or

going to my office. And I either replied, "Not yet," or "Not just

yet," or "In a little while," because I was seeing, but very conscious

of hearing everything that was going on around me. And there was that

wonderful Presence of the Lord that I didn't want to disturb.

How many of you ever feel God? You're worshiping,

you're praying or something, and you just feel the Presence of God.

You just wish that's all you had to ever do - never wash another dish, never

iron another shirt, hallelujah - just stay in that Presence.

And that was the feeling that I had. "Just let me stay

here in that Presence."

And then he said to me that after that he asked me again.

I don't know if I ever responded to him. But it seemed like his voice

was way off out there somewhere, and I remember really wanting to say

something. But whether I ever did, I don't really know.

He said that I said something - indicated that I wanted to

go to my office, I guess.

What's the difference in a trance vision and another kind

of vision? I don't know that I can describe it all except to tell you

that the focus in a trance vision is so different because it's almost like

going somewhere in the Spirit instead of just . . . You know, I

might be sitting there and see a little vision of eye surgery or something,

and then . . .

But this is so different. It's like making a

journey. And sometimes it will draw out of focus and get blurry, and

then clear again.

I just assume . . . I don't know for sure, but I

assume that that has something to do with what the saints are doing. It may not. I may be blaming you for something you're not

guilty of. But I just always felt like that since there was one of

those visions where it was such a struggle to get all the way into the

vision.

And I said, "Tell the people there's a battle going on

and they need to pray." And it cleared right up. So that's

where I have drawn that assumption.

I appreciate you praying and worshiping God. And I

know some of you don't know what to think. You don't know what to do.

Maybe some of you that are worshiping with us only recently, you just think

we must really be weird. And we are. We try to keep it from

you, but you found us out.

Anyway, they got me into the office. I don't know

what they were doing with me, but it felt like for a little while, just a few

seconds, like they were killing me. Really, I felt like they were

stretching me. From the best I could make out, they had laid me on

the couch. But honestly, it felt like a stretching machine.

And I remember trying to say, "Chair. Put me in a

chair or something." They helped me get to the chair. And

as I settled down again, then I felt myself going off again.

And it's a very strange thing. You'll never believe

the first words I heard. The first words I heard was, "Brother

Branham is resting." That was so strange.

And I didn't repeat those words out. But when the

vision was over and we were talking about it, I told them what I had heard.

That was the first phrase I heard twice. A strong man's voice

said, "Brother Branham is resting."

And when I heard that I thought, "Oh, I'm going back to

the tent." But I didn't.

[Pastor Shelley is referring to the very significant tent

vision that Brother William Branham had many years ago. In part of

that vision, Bro. Branham saw a large evangelistic healing meeting taking

place under a huge tent. At one point, a man in the vision said, "Now

while Brother Branham is resting a little bit, we'll call the prayer line

up." The people then entered into a door of a small building to the

left of the platform and emerged on the other side of the building totally

healed and delivered.

We now know that this was symbolizing that the Bride's

Revival would take place sometime after Bro. Branham's death ().

We believe that it will be soon. The fact that these were the first

words that Pastor Shelley heard seems to be for the purpose of tying his

trance vision to this historic prophetic tent vision.]

I saw Mount Zion. And one minute I was standing

on a hill looking at it and the next minute I was about two-thirds of the

way up it. How I got from the top of the hill to the mountain, I

don't know. But I was climbing. And there were people all

around me climbing.

I remember the sensation of dirt and rocks hitting my mouth

because of the struggle that some were having ahead of me climbing.

And I was so bearing in on my climb that . . . And those ahead of me

were climbing so hard that they were dislodging rocks and dirt. And

it was rolling down the hill, hitting me in the mouth. It wasn't

painful. I just recall the sensation of that.

And I never saw anything like this before. I've seen

Mount Zion several times. But right near where I was, to my right,

where I could have reached out and touched it, was a crack - a large crack

in the rock of the mountain.

And I thought, "My, that is so strange." And down in

that rock crack was Fire. The Fire was not coming out of the crack,

but inside the rock was Fire - inside the crack.

And I reared back like that and looked up. And

all ahead of me I could see that the mountain had these fissures or cracks

in it. And I could see the light of the Fire that was coming through - the Fire that was on the inside of that mountain.

And that was so strange to me. And I reached out and

put my hand over the crack to touch the Fire, and it was not hot. It

did not burn my hand. But I know it was Fire. And I knew it was

on the inside of the mountain.

And I knew in my spirit that I had to get that Fire, the

Fire that was inside of that mountain. I know it sounds strange.

Just try to take it in spiritual terms if you possibly can.

I knew that that Fire in that mountain was important

and that I had to get it inside of me. I knew that that Fire was

not to stay where it was. It was to get inside of me. But I

could not for the life of me think of how to get it in me.

That sounds weird. But I couldn't think of, "Should

I reach in and get some of it?" I just could not think of a way.

And I felt real disappointed because something told me to get the Fire

inside but didn't tell me how to do it.

And it was a very . . . You've felt that way before

in the Spirit. "Oh, we need to get closer to God. Oh, we need to do

this." And you think, "You've told me what I need to do. Now if

you'll just tell me how to do it . . ."

And there are people who say . . . They're telling

us to yield. "How do you yield?" "How do I tell somebody how to

yield? You just let go." "Oh, I don't know that I'm not letting

go."

You see, it's one of those strange mysteries. You've

just got to get it in the Spirit, I reckon.

And I noticed about that time there was a man, a brother,

a little bit ahead of me. There were several around him and lots near

me, right and left, and lots behind me. And I hope you won't think I'm

boasting when I tell you there were a whole lot more behind me than there was

ahead of me.

But I sure noticed that one brother for some reason.

I never saw his face. I don't know who he is or who he was. But I saw the Fire when it went into him.

And I wasn't jealous, but I aimed to find out. And I

said, "How did you get it? How did you get it? How did you get

that Fire to go out of the mountain to come into you? How did you

get that Fire? We want to know."

He said, "All I did was ask for it."

And I thought, "I never thought to ask for the Fire.

I knew I had to have it in me. I didn't know how to get it in me.

And all that man did was ask."

And then he said, "I placed my mouth down near the crack

and swallowed it."

Now I know that sounds strange. "I asked for it.

And then I bent over, opened up my mouth, and that Fire came out of

that mountain and went inside of me." And he said, "I feel so much

stronger."

That's all. I knew the Fire was inside of him.

And I said to those in the room, "I'm going to try it." And I

asked the Lord to give me the Fire. In the vision I put my mouth over

that crack and I felt the Fire when it went inside of me. When I

swallowed it, it started burning in my belly.

And as soon as that happened, I began to hear thunder

and voices. Lots of voices talking at the same time. And

they were higher than I was on the mountain, higher than that brother ahead

of me was.

I could tell later that it was English. I don't know

if I knew it here or not, but later I could tell that the words were English.

But I still couldn't make them out. It was like being in a

room with everybody talking at the same time. And I could not tell

what was being said. But at some point in the vision I recognized that

it was English.

And I said, "I can't hear what they're saying.

It's higher than I am. But I'm going to try to swallow the Fire so

that it'll strengthen me." And we decided to do that. And I

did it and felt it in my belly.

And I knew that there was hesitation in those behind me to

take that Fire. I felt hesitant at first. And I knew that people

behind me were hesitant.

And in the room I spoke out while in vision, and they wrote

it down. "Go ahead. It's His Life. Don't be afraid to swallow

it. It looks like Fire, but it's His Life."

And all we did was ask for it, open our mouth.

And I made a comment and I said, "Some are lapping it

like a dog. Once they found out how easy it was to have it, they put

their mouths down over those cracks." And I could see their tongues

lapping that Fire.

That sounds so strange. Doesn't it?

"I don't know why they're afraid." (I'm saying what

I spoke out loud in the vision.) "We all saw what it did for that

brother. I feel it in my belly like Fire in my belly - even in my

bones."

I could feel that Fire in my bones. And it wasn't

just Fire, it was His Life. That is what's going to make my soul

eternal.

One of these days you're going to wake up and realize that

it's more than a sinner's prayer, "Lord, forgive me of my sins." It's a real birth. You've got to get His Life in you. And

you may have to lose your pride and stick your lips down and suck the Rock

to get it.

"That's what some of you are looking for." It's like

some brother said to me this morning, "I want to get closer to God. I

want to worship God. I want to get my mind on Him. I want to

get closer to God."

That's what you're longing for - His Life - a birth, a

real one.

I don't know why, but I could feel that everybody around

me, behind me, was afraid. And I said, "I hate to leave some of

those behind who will not swallow the Fire. But I hear those Voices,

and they're higher. And I need to hear what they're saying."

I could hear them roaring like thunder.

And then I said, "When they saw us leaving them . . ."

I meant it. I meant it. I had said to those

around me and behind me, "Swallow the Fire. It's His Life." And

some did, and some wouldn't. They were afraid. Fear

paralyzes us from faith. Fear is the opposite of faith. It's a

human thing we battle with.

But I knew I couldn't dilly dally any more. I wanted

to hear what those Voices were thundering on top of Mount Zion. And it

was so funny. I laughed. I said, "It's funny. When they

saw us leaving them . . ." This is how it's going to be. I've

always known this. That's why God spoke to us about forerunners.

I've always known that it's going to take some of you

seeing somebody get it. I said, "It's funny. When they saw

us leaving them behind, you should have seen them. They swallowed the

Fire."

When they realized that we didn't have time to pet them

in their fear and talk them out of being afraid but we were just going to go

off and leave them, they put their mouths down. And that's how they

began to lap the Fire. They were going to get it in them one way or

the other then.

And I said out in the room . . . And I am.

I'm not ashamed. I'm not taking it back. I spoke out in the

room at that time and I said, "I'm so tired of slow pokes - too busy to

swallow the Fire. I wish you could see them now, licking, lapping

that Fire like dogs. They didn't like us leaving them behind."

"Can't you see them?" (I'm telling the people that

are in the room.) "I told you to watch them, but you can't see them."

You see, I was aware that there were people in the room I

was talking to, but I also knew they weren't . . .

I said, "I should call their names. You know them.

But they're catching up now." Glory. I've had one person

hint to me . . . This only happened, what, only a few hours ago?

I've already had one person to see if I'd tell them if they were

one of the slowpokes.

Do you really need me to tell you? Didn't you dress

yourself this morning? Didn't you look in the mirror this morning when

you were getting ready? Don't you know who's lagging behind and who is

not? If you perceive that you're lagging behind, you were behind.

You don't need me to tell you.

I said, "This is the final portion. That

Fire, it's burning in my belly."

I said, "Look, they're pointing at something. It's still thunder. I still hear Voices. It's English. I

can tell it's English, but it sounds like they are all talking at the same

time so I can't hear exactly what they are saying."

But I could see people pointing. "Look, look,"

they're saying. It was an Eagle – "one large white Eagle with a

Sword in his mouth. And it looks like a globe in his feet, his talons.

And he is circling, flying around the mountain, heading in and out of the

clouds."

And a Voice said, "He's coming to take you."

I cried out to him. I wanted him to know where I

was. I began to wave at him. "This great white Eagle, he's

coming to take you."

"Where?" I asked, "Where?" twice. I couldn't

hear the answer. An answer was given. I couldn't hear the

answer. I said, "Please say it louder."

The answer came back, "To the Throne - not to the top

of Mount Zion, but higher."

All of a sudden I felt such strength again from that Fire.

And listen at this. It's kind of a revelation.

I said, "Oh, I'm not weak." I thought He said

before, "When you can't go any farther on your own . . ." I thought

He meant because we were so weak.

[Pastor Shelley is referring to the fifth trance vision

that he had on September 29, at the end of the evening service.

He again saw Mount Zion, but this time he saw the saints of God climbing up

the rough sides of it. The Angel of the Lord said to him, "Saints

are stuck on Mount Zion. They have climbed so far in His virtues, His

attributes, but they seem to be stuck. They can't go any higher.

But don't worry."

Then he sees a beautiful white Eagle flying to Mount Zion.

He sees that the Eagle represents something wonderful happening.

In the vision, he wondered how all the saints would ever

make it to the top of Mount Zion, which represents coming into perfection. Then he saw the Eagle swooping low and coming up higher.

The Eagle screamed, "I will bear you

on My wings to the top of Mount Zion. Don't worry, My Bride will make

it to the top. She'll have My virtues if I have to carry her on My

wings. She will not receive them by struggling. She will

receive them supernaturally."]

How many of you . . .? That's what we thought.

We were so weak. We were so weak. When we've done all

we can and we can't go any higher, He said He would take us to the top,

spiritually, on the wings of a white Eagle.

But that is not right. That is not what He was

saying. It's the way I took it. I thought He meant because we

were so weak, we couldn't go on any farther, so He came to help us, to take

us home. But I feel so strong. I said, "We're not weak at

all. We swallowed the Fire. It's in our bones."

How can you be broken and weak if the Life of God is

moving in you?

And I said, "I feel like I can run to the top."

He said, "Not yet."

I asked Him for somebody else to go with me. There

were brothers around me - sisters, too. I asked Him for somebody else

to go with me.

He said, "It's not wise."

"So just wait here. I'll not be gone too long," I'm

saying to those around me. "Just keep climbing. I will meet

you soon."

I said to those around me, "No smart remarks this time.

Keep climbing." Isn't that strange? Must have been the young

brothers.

I said, "Oh, I'm flying again. There's no

seatbelt. I'm laying across His back. He must be a strong

bird."

I hope you can hear this. I was laying, my belly

across His back. And my head was on one side, my ankles on the other

side. I laid over Him like that. I was not afraid of falling

off. But I was aware of the fact that I wasn't strapped on in the

Spirit.

But here's the most amazing thing. I had a

tremendous view of his feathers. And though He looked snow white to

me when I was laying across his back, I saw words written on His feathers.

I said, "But He looked so clean and white. He's

supernatural - not a real bird - but words written on His feathers." And all of a sudden, when I saw those words, He screamed - that

Eagle screamed. And because I was so close to Him, I thought it was

going to stop my ears - pierce them. I thought it would almost make

me dead, it was so loud. He screamed so loud, it made me shake all

over.

And I began to read the words on His feathers. On one feather I saw a lot of words. And it was things maybe

you recognize. I sure do hate to read it. "Final Harvest

Cycle," I saw written, and "What We DO Know About the Seventh Seal."

[These were the titles of very anointed messages that

Pastor Shelley has preached. "What We DO Know About the Seventh

Seal" is an in-depth, major message in several parts that he preached at his

Winter Campmeeting in Alabama at the beginning of . It is

available in MP3 format on his website

(www.revival.org). Click here to order from the online bookstore.

I said out loud, "So much more. I'd better not tell

it. Somebody might misunderstand." But I was so surprised at

what I was reading on those feathers.

He asked me if I wanted to make a stop.

Only I would give this Eagle a smart answer. I

didn't mean to. I read this. I couldn't believe I said it.

I don't even remember saying it. I couldn't believe I said it.

But two scribes have vindicated it.

He asked me if I wanted to make a stop. And I told

it out loud. And I said, "No, I prefer a direct flight."

How many times have I told my travel agent that.

I've said many times, "I'd rather have a direct flight. I'd rather

have a direct flight."

So the Angel said, "You want to go now or make a stop?"

I said, "I'd rather have a direct flight."

He said we should stop and that I would like this

place.

This is precious. I think everybody in the room

just about was moved with emotion when this came.

"It looks familiar, but I'm not sure. There is an

angel coming to meet us. He said, 'Welcome. This is where

the saints rest.'"

I said, "I'm going to the Throne."

The Angel said, "That's higher. We want you to

visit here for a while behind a big Gate."

Hallelujah. Thank You, Lord. Thank You,

Jesus. (Pastor Shelley weeps.) Hallelujah.

The angel opened the Gate like this, stood with his

back against the Gate and held the Gate open. I took about three

steps inside the Gate, and Brenda . . . she grabbed me. Sister

Brenda grabbed me and hugged me. I was hardly inside. She

greeted me.

[Sister Brenda was a young middle-aged woman who went

to be with the Lord almost two years

ago. She had been part of Pastor Shelley's congregation and had

been sick for some time, but her death took everyone by surprise.]

She stepped back, and I turned. And there was such

a crowd of people gathered in a semi-circle all around. I began to

recognize them one by one.

I saw two sisters walking toward me that kind of stepped

out. They were hand in hand. I recognized that it was both

of my grannies. They were holding hands.

I had one big, tall, fat granny and one little short

granny. Most of the time she was skinny. But they were sure

opposites. One was loud, and one was quiet. And one was rough,

and one was meek. Here they were, holding hands. I guess I knew

my little Baptist granny was saved. But you know, you just don't

really think about it.

They told me that they loved my babies. I

don't know how many times - only God knows how many times - I have said,

"Oh, I wish my grandmothers would have lived to see my children."

Both of my grandmothers loved me so much. I was the

favorite on both sides of the family. That's why I'm so rotten - they both

loved me so much. And I just have thought so many times how much they

would have loved my children.

[Pastor Shelley went on to tell the names of the people

who greeted him there whom he knew and who had gone on to be with the Lord.

Some had been part of his congregation, some were loved ones of people

currently in his congregation and others were from his ministry travels.

Surprisingly, he saw two people who were either old or very sick who

had not yet gone Home, but they did not greet him.]

Somebody asked me after it was over, "Were they all

young - teenagers?"

And I said, "To be honest with you, it wasn't exactly like

I thought it would be. Everybody looked younger and well and

healthy and beautiful, but everybody didn't look in their twenties."

All I know is I've often thought that everybody didn't

reach their prime in life at the same time. I don't know how it is.

And I said to those in the room, "I'm so glad we didn't

take the direct flight. I'm glad we stopped here."

I told them after it was over that nobody seemed more

important than any one else.

And I said out loud to the brothers and those in the room,

"It seemed so strange to see them together. These are people that

didn't know each other."

I glanced back over to my left and I saw little Sister Emmy

that had just died this year in Jerusalem.

[Then he told about seeing the mothers of an older couple

from the congregation.]

And they had different church histories, you know, but got

along. I know they did. And it was so funny, but too holy to

laugh at at the time. They were swinging hands like this and

giggling like teenagers.

And I don't remember who said it. It seemed like

they said it together. They said, "We always loved each other, but

now we like each other." I like that.

I said, "Don't feel bad about that 'cause there are some

people I'm going to have to wait to get to heaven to like, too." But

it doesn't keep us from loving folks, does it?

I said, "Oh, there are so many others. I wish I

could see them all and greet them all."

And my granny said to me, "There is somebody else here that

I want you to see."

And I looked, and it was Brother Branham. It's

not the first time I've seen Brother Branham in vision like that, but this

was very special. You'll forgive me if I don't tell you now what

happened, but I'll read what my answer was. It won't mean much to you,

but I'll read it.

I said, "Yes sir. Yes sir. I'll remember.

Yes sir. Yes sir. Yes sir. I will. I

will."

He asked how we are doing, I think. It's how it

is here. I don't remember exactly how that was.

And as they sensed I was getting ready to leave, people

were pressing in to hug me. I just can't name them all, but they were

hugging me one right after another, squeezing me.

And I said, "It's late." And the Angel of the Lord

said, "It's time to go."

I expected He was going to lead me toward the Gate.

But instead, the crowd just parted and He led me over that way. And I

looked up, and there was the tallest flight of stairs I've ever seen in my

life.

And the Angel was taking me up those stairs. I kept

talking about them, too. I said, "Oh, there's lots of stairs."

And then all of a sudden the vision broke a little bit.

It went away. And I said, "Somebody check on the service.

See that it's not dragging." I said, "No, it is dragging.

People want to go home. I doubt if I'll say anything to them tonight.

I doubt if I'll talk to them tonight."

And all of a sudden I went right back.

As I started climbing the stairs to go higher, I heard

a familiar laugh. I had only climbed about six stairs. Only one person in the world laughs like that.

And I turned over my right shoulder and just in the crowd I saw Sister Ruth Heflin. And she called out to me on the

stairs. And she said, "Little brother from Alabama, prepare the way

for the Glory. Carry the Word from Jerusalem to the Nations."

The Angel nudged me on. We kept climbing. And

the Angel said, "He is higher. His Throne is higher than where the

saints are."

And I just said, "A bunch of stairs." I could

hear the music, the singing. It sounded like trumpets and strings.

I said, "It's even more beautiful than last time." We went in through the City. I saw the balcony, the

platform, where I had stood before and looked out over the . . .

The only words to describe it is "like a Plaza."

And He said, "No, this time we're going closer."

And such a fear gripped my heart. I said,

"Oh, it's scary." I don't ever remember being that afraid. There were people dancing, and there was noise. I said, "But

it's good noise."

And finally I asked the Angel. I said, "Let me

stay here and rest a little while." I mentioned those stairs.

But I said, "Really, I'm just scared."

And all of a sudden there was a little handful of angels

that slipped around me, and they were pushing me like this. My

feet were dragging, and they were pushing me. And they were laughing.

I'm not going to tell everything I saw. I'm going

to say what I said, and we'll get the rest later.

"Wow, it's big. It's bright. Hurts my eyes.

Just let me crawl. It's too hard to stand." And they

kept picking me up. I said, "They don't want me to crawl."

I started worshiping in tongues. And then I said,

"Please, a little closer."

All I can tell you is, a strange thing happened. I was before the Throne of God. I saw His feet. I was on my face.

Something was holding me just a little bit. I could feel that

I wasn't really to go any closer. But I said, "Please, let me go just

a little closer."

And whatever was holding me back released me. I made

about three more strikes with my knees to get to His feet.

There's no way to tell you what this feels like except I had no desire to look up. I guess I would have liked to have, but

I couldn't. I was so afraid to do it. But without ever looking

up, I kissed His feet.

And He reached down and touched me on the

back of my neck, just like He did when He appeared to me as a child. I don't know how it was, but when the vision was over . . .

Daniel was sitting next to me and he said that when I said that,

the back of my neck was just red, just turned real red.

I said, "I don't even want to see His face just now.

Oh Lord, You know."

And He spoke. I

answered twice, "Yes, Sir. Yes, Sir."

"I can't look up. I don't think I can ever tell

it like it is." And I just lifted my eyes a little bit. I

could see His ankles.

I didn't say this out loud last night, but I'm going to

say it now. You've already made your opinion. This little detail

won't change your mind. But I saw it - I saw His ankles. I

had already kissed His feet. And I just raised my eyes a little bit

higher and I saw the hair on His legs. Now that's the truth.

So that body that He wears now is glorified, but it's so

much like the body He wore when He was on this earth, because I saw the hair

on His legs. It was very, very real.

One of the things He told me was there

were many things He wanted to share with me. And He asked me if I

would come away with Him for a season before the end of the year. He

said it had to be before the end of the year.

I remember saying to Him at that point, "I want to know.

Please, let me know what those Voices were. They were all

talking at the same time. I couldn't make out a one."

He said, "You will hear each Voice

clearly . . . Seven Thunder Voices clearly. You will teach them to

those who will listen. You must teach them."

[The Seven Thunders are mentioned in the Book of the

Revelation 10:3-4.]

And I prayed, cried, "Lord, teach me."

He said, "You must establish them in

Present Truth before they can stand before the Throne. It must be clear,

plain and simple. Man has complicated it. That's why I chose

simple men to make it clear. I did not want to have to do it this way.

I made it plain through a prophet messenger. But too many

followed their own spirit because they didn't ever receive Mine."

"Those Seven Unknown Thunder mysteries . . . they will be

made known. You will find them in My Word." He told me not to

search for them. He said, "I'll show them to you. You can back them

up with My Word, even in the Words of the prophet messenger."

[The "prophet messenger" referred to here is Brother

William Branham.]

"Yes, Sir."

The vision faded a little bit. And in a few minutes

I came back into vision.

I said, "You tell me when."

He said, "Listen to My Angel.

He will tell you."

And it started going in and out. And I was

worshiping in tongues. I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to

tell a lot of what I heard and saw just yet.

And He said, "Remember, step by step."

And I said, "You'll have to show me what to say now." And I said, "No, I won't. I promise." And then I said, "How will I remember? My memory is sick."

And all of a sudden I began to count out loud in the

room, "One, two, three, four, five . . ." And the vision faded

out. It came back in, and I counted again, "Five, six, seven . . .

"

I can't tell you right now this morning. It's late.

I don't know what to say yet. But the next thing was "Five years."

My response was, "With Your help." The next

thing I said was, "Oh, that's what we need. That's how we overcome."

And then I asked, "Did I misunderstand? Oh, I

see." And the Throne was gone just that quick.

"Let's go."

I'm flying again with the Eagle. The vision

was breaking, and I said, "I can't blow it. I'll try." And I

worshiped in tongues. And I said, "I'm standing on the top, but

I've tried. I can't blow it."

"Yes, Sir, I remember. That's what He

said."

I started laughing. And then I said, "I love

Him."

And at 9:50 the vision ended.

What happened in that . . . I'll just tell you this

because that doesn't make any sense to you.

What happened was He picked up the Shofar. I

cannot blow the Shofar. In sixth grade I wanted to play the trumpet,

but my teeth were bucked and I couldn't buzz into the trumpet to blow it just

right. I tried. I never could make that buzz sound. You

don't just blow. You have to buzz a little. I couldn't do

it.

And I cannot blow the Shofar. I've never tried many,

many times. But every time I've tried, I can't do it.

And all of a sudden I said, "But I can't blow it."

He said, "Blow. You've got to sound the

Shofar."

I said, "I can't blow it."

And all of a sudden the Angel of the Lord picked it up

and put it in my mouth. And I remember my lips touching it. I remember the hardness in the vision - my soft lips making contact with

the tip of the Shofar.

And all of a sudden the Shofar sounded so loud, but

there was no breath come out of my belly. There was no breath from

me. It was not me blowing it. It was only up to

my mouth. And yet it was sounding loud - so loud and so clear and so

plain.

God is good. Somebody say, "All the time."

Now, how I would love to have more time. But if

I had more time I wouldn't know what to say with it. I invite you in

the Spirit to the Feast of the Open Book. This is the time that God

desires to make it plain - not to confuse us, but to make it plainer than

it's ever been before.

So let's be about His business and pray and seek His

face while God is seeking us. Be spiritual. Walk in the

Spirit.

And know that God is going to be faithful to give us the

opportunity to tell every detail and to reveal anything that needs to be

revealed.

I don't know how or when, but I made God a promise to be

alone with Him. And I'm going to do that. It probably

won't be in the wilderness since I'm not a wilderness man. But I

want to hear from the Lord more and more and more.

How many of you want your life to be what His is?

It took seven years to get us to this place. And if

you're only looking at it with natural eyes, you might say, "Oh, what is it

then? A lot of nice details. But what really is it? It

didn't seem to be so much."

Oh, it's there, my brother, sister. When those

Thunders began to sound, rumbled for a long time until I could hear the

English words . . . And I can still see the Throne before me shaking

as those Voices went out.

If you've been listening carefully these years . . . and

even recently, even a few Sunday nights ago, God spoke to us and told us

He was about to reveal those things and what it was going to accomplish. I believe Him.

[Pastor Shelley now shares the Words that the Lord gave him

during the worship time in the Sunday evening service, October 9, .

]

He said, "The sun is setting on the

old order. Give it up. Give it up. A new day is dawning.

It shall spring forth speedily. I shall shine My Light on a

new path. I shall raise up a new anointed priesthood, fully

established in the old but reaching forth into the new.

"I will draw again to this place. I will gather

those that are Mine. Many shall learn a new way as you give the Truth

to them. That which seems old shall spring forth in you and be even as

a new thing."

You know, that just makes sense to me. When God

gives you an opportunity to share the Word with somebody, even though you've

known it and it's been in you all along, it just gets new again when you get

to tell somebody else.

He said, "You shall become fully

established in 'Present Truth.' [2 Peter 1:12] It will become easier for you to turn loose of your ways

and embrace My ways.

"I shall allow a season of catching up for all who so

desire." It is time to cross over the line now and accept His covenant

will for us. He is calling heaven to witness His promise to us for

this new season.

He will soon remove us from the oven and let us "set up"

on the counter. The temperature will continue to rise, but the

product, the souffle, whatever it is, will begin to meet the right

consistency, the right texture, as it is sitting outside of the oven.

Seven Thunder Truths will come forth soon.

Some will be easier to grab than others. Some will push the boundary, stretch

our thinking, but all will be confirmed by His Word. That's all I

need. I mean, that's all I need, Lord.

They will draw us into Him, back into

His side through a narrow spear hole. These Truths will gather a

variety of people - people who look right, some who don't, some who came

from good backgrounds, holy heritages, some who did not, some with a

background in the Message [what God gave to Bro. Branham to

preach], others who do not, some older, more mature in

the faith, some newborns with little self control. Don't worry.

We will in many ways lose our seniority and move together.

Maybe that's how it was. You know, Brother Branham

told us that in that age when we're all gathered together, the Bride would

gather together with the messenger of each age. And I guess that's

what I expected it to be.

But you know, the righteous dead are not before the

Throne. They're in the Presence of God, but they're not before the

Throne.

How many of you understand that? One day all the

Redeemed of the Lord are going before the Throne. Together we're

going to go in with Him and live with Him forever.

But where He is is higher in the Spirit.

That's exactly how it was. It was bearing out in this vision.

But I expected it would be the believers of the Message gathering with the

messenger of the age. But not now. Not right now.

Because I saw those who walked in the Message and those who

didn't. They were all together in one group. It just seemed to

be the ones that I was familiar with. And they were all together.

And even Brother Branham was right in the crowd. He didn't

stand out.

There was a very important man of God, but he didn't

stand out above anybody else. He was just standing right in there

with the believers. That will upset some people, but it's just the way it

was. And even Sister Ruth . . . God used her as an important

prophetess, a missionary to the nations. And she was just right in the

crowd. I wouldn't have even seen her, but she called out.

And when I did, I turned and I pictured her. I could see her head and

shoulders in the crowd.

I like that. We must be going to practice, before

we get there, losing some of our seniority. Is that all right with you?

You know what? It really doesn't matter whether it is or not.

God's not asking our permission. He's just going to change

us.

He said, "Remember, I will supply the

needs. The White Eagle Revelation will take us all the way. All

that is foggy and misty now will soon become crystal clear. Didn't I

promise that at the end of great change would come?

"There is such muddy water in the prophetic movement

today across the Land, but I desire to send a clean wave. Another wave

of Glory will soon roll in, pure from the Throne, waters to swim in.

"It will be a witness, even as the Two Witnesses were

Moses and Elijah – Moses representing the Word and Elijah representing the

prophetic moving of the Spirit. They're My olive branches.

They're coming. But before they come I'm establishing that kind of

order.

"Only Truth will unite with Truth. Oil and water

will not mix. The Truth from both streams will flow together, all the

way back to the Apostolic Fathers."

(Not back to the Church Fathers, but to the faith that was

once delivered to the saints. Apostolic faith is the faith of Moses.

They're cheering us on.)

God said, "I'm going to release the

Manna that's been stored up. Do not be afraid. I'm enlisting

an army of volunteers. I'm requiring a change of vocabulary."

I saw that healing River flowing out from the base of

the altar, flowing out from the Temple, down into the valley of death and

hell - purifying, clean, clear water flowing right into the midst of a black,

sick-looking pool of water full of trash, causing the old dirty water to be

pushed back and down the riverbed, bringing life, exceeding abundant Life.

And I heard the Spirit saying over and over again, "Waves of Glory and showers of blessing."

"My order is being revealed. Who will hear it?

Who will know it? Who will obey it? Who will walk in it?"

"I will. I will."
