Can you hear the Rumblings?

By Ian Winslow

Can you hear the Rumblings?

On the morning of 9/11/2021, I had this dream. I decided to share it as I feel it may help people in the days ahead.

  I found myself in a building that was a ministry, as I wandered around I went into a bookstore and saw some familiar faces. Then I went to the front of the counter to take care of customers who were waiting in line. The checkout system was different than I expected. Some lady brought up a black rubber pair of matching underwear to buy and no one was surprised. (it didn’t feel sexual but I found it very odd) I was going to ring up her purchase but I couldn’t find the scanner or the item number. A few other people came behind the cash register and a guy from security was there he started using the buttons on the register for his own job. He and I kept trying to use the number pad. Finally, I was able to take my turn and try to punch in the numbers but I still couldn’t get it to work. There were other people in line now and I was getting flustered by how many people were behind the counter.

  Not sure if I walked away or if I woke up from a noise briefly or if this is where the Vision began.

  Suddenly I found myself outside of the bookstore and as I was walking around, I was amazed at how beautiful the building was. There were flowing multi-color marble floors and really elegant decor all over. When I got to the end of the building I went into another bookstore. And inside it was a smaller but higher-class store than the first store. Very fancy. I knew the person who was working in it and I went up to talk with them. One of the things I asked was how she worked or how is it worked in this fancy of a place. Not sure of the exact question but her answer was. “Somedays I’m good enough, but others I’m not.”

  We talked a little more then I walked back out and was just admiring how fancy it all was and there was a good amount of people milling around. Then suddenly I found myself on the second floor. I was in a hallway that looked and felt like an abandoned psycho ward or mental health prison. It was run down, dark, foggy, and as soon as I saw it I wanted to wake up immediately. I started walking down the hall and I was trying to turn my mind away from it because I was afraid of what I would see. Like a horror movie. I kept trying to “wake up” but I couldn’t do it. I knew this usually worked how I was doing it but it wouldn’t work this time.

  I kept walking forward despite my attempts not to then to my huge relief I took the first turn a few steps down the hall and it led to an open stairwell. I went halfway down it so I could compare the two floors. I was blown away by the stark differences. The bottom floor was beautiful and full of people the 2nd floor was the polar opposite. As I was looking a thought came into my head. “They spent all their time and money on the on the 1st floor.” In hindsight, the stairway I was on was black, as in lightless. No one else even knew it was there. I remember wishing I had a camera just to capture how very different the two floors were.

  Then I found myself outside. Outside was very different from real life. We were in a city of sorts with some high-rise buildings all around scattered about. But there was an open area with a thin metal roof kind of like a big carport that I was under. I saw some familiar faces and a few others that I might have recognized and a handful of other people as well. I realized we were all there but no one was sure why. We just knew we were looking for something else. That had to be the reason we left the buildings.

  I looked around at the buildings and they looked kind of like the buildings from the movie Wall-E. They were in disrepair and unfinished-looking. You could see steel beams and stuff but you could not see into the buildings. From the inside of the building, you could not see the state of disrepair on the outside. The building I came out of was about 5 stories tall and unfinished on all sides I could see.

Rumblings

  There may have been a mountain far away in the distance but everything else was unfinished buildings. Then after I had looked around I wondered. “Where do we go from here?” Suddenly we heard a rumble and a few of us were like where did that come from? Some asked if it was an earthquake. I told them, “No” to keep the panic down, and looked carefully around. Seeing nothing changed I kept looking around. Then we heard it again and this time I saw one of the dead buildings in the distance topple over then the rumble kept happening as more buildings started shaking. I saw a huge one that looked like a skyscraper twist and then come crashing down. The building I came out of twisted and shifted but did not collapse like a lot of the others. 

  Buildings were dropping all around but I realized that we were protected. I turned and saw parts of a building or something come tumbling straight at us but I was unafraid. I knew we were safe and we were where we needed to be. Just as the parts were about to come crashing under our metal roof they were stopped and redirected. The same happened to other debris on the other side.

The whole time I was watching this Vision I was awake it felt like but unable to open my eyes. Not that I wanted to but it felt like I was going to have to see the whole thing before I could “leave it.”

  After it was over I replayed it in my head trying to remember it all so I could write it down. Then another glimpse appeared in my mind. I was presented with a crown of silver with a green gem. I think those were the colors. I think that all of us that were under the roof outside got presented one but I am not certain.

The Meaning

  Now we arrive at the meaning of the dream. There is a lot to it but one of the biggest things I see are the buildings for one. The buildings represent ministries, some bigger than others but all of them were unfinished and had focused on the inside. The buildings that could not take the rumbling and shaking broke under the strain and came crashing down. These are the dead or lifeless ministries. The ones that God was not allowed to be part of. The evidence for this is that when God started the shaking they were too brittle and tried to resist before they broke and came crashing down. The ones that were like the building I came out of accepted the correction and shifted into the correct position. The ministry may have been out of alignment in the beginning based on how the inside was but it was able to survive the shaking by shifting into alignment.

  It is unfortunate how many ministries have focused on being people-pleasing at the cost of compromising God’s word. I truly feel that if this dream is any indication that there is coming, a divine shift, the churches or ministries that will not change are going to be brought down.

  I do not mean to sound anti-ministry because I am not but I am against having ministries that hurt the body of Christ by being filled with dead man-made religion.

  The black rubber underwear shows how we have accepted some things as normal that have no place in a ministry. Whether it was allowed overtly or by not addressing issues when they came up we find ourselves in a place where things are not as they should be.

  So if you find yourself being called away from church or feel like you can’t find a church that has a focus on the presence of God. Or if your church has already closed do not worry but be encouraged God is on the move.
