On February 28, 2004, during a period of fasting and prayer, I found myself suddenly caught up in the spirit realm.  As I began to speak forth what I was both seeing and hearing, my wife, Barbara, captured it on our handheld recorder.  The vision is as follows...

        The Cloud of Sorrow & the Voice of the Holy Spirit

I was looking down on the entire New England region from the heavens.  I called off each of the New England states individually as I looked down upon them, “Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island.”  It was as if I was calling them forth for a specific purpose.  I then heard the Holy Spirit speak and repeated what He said.  “Sorrow.  Godly sorrow spreading all across your region.” 

I then saw a smoky, oily, gray cloud move in slowly across the entire New England region.  I heard the Holy Spirit speak again.  I repeated aloud what I heard.  “Godly sorrow bringing millions to repentance in this region.  Godly sorrow.  Plenty of sorrow being poured out over the entire region.  Plenty of sorrow.   Even as Jesus multiplied the fish and the loaves, and there was plenty, plenty and plenty left over, there’s plenty of sorrow to go around to bring people to repentance.  All you have to do is ask.  It’s a gift.  It’s a gift and I’m passing it out freely and abundantly.  I just need you to ask.”  (Second Corinthians 7:10 and Second Timothy 2:24-25 came to my mind.)

As I continued to look down now upon the entire Northeastern United States, I watched as the smoky, oily, gray cloud began to slowly move west.  Suddenly the scene changed and the gray cloud blocked the entire Northeast from my sight.  I had the thought, “If that’s the Glory, I’ve never seen it look like that before.”  I continued to watch the cloud as it moved from the Northeast heading westward until it arrived over the States of Illinois and Indiana. 

Hovering in position over those two States, the cloud then spread south down into Missouri and west heading toward California.  I had an immediate knowing that once this cloud covered all of America, it would then go to the Nations of the world, impacting millions, potentially billions with God’s transforming love and power.

The Holy Spirit Spoke to Me Again

I heard the Holy Spirit speak again, so I spoke aloud what I heard.  “There’s plenty of sorrow for everyone.  I have plenty of sorrow for your region, plenty of sorrow for your Nation.”  Suddenly I began praying in tongues.  I stopped and immediately interpreted what I had just prayed.  “And they’ll shod their feet with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace.  They’ll put on their shoes.  They’ll put on their shoes of the Gospel of Peace and they’ll follow the wave of sorrow.  They’ll follow the wave of sorrow all across your region and out into the Nation. 

“They’ll follow behind the wave of sorrow, reaping the Harvest, reaping the Harvest.  The reapers will reap.  The reapers will reap and from the reaping will come reapers.  And they’ll reap the Harvest.  They’ll follow the wave of sorrow all across the Nation, the reapers reaping the Harvest and from the reaping will come reapers.  But not just across your Nation.  Not just across North America.  They’ll go to the Nations of the world because I want it all.  I WANT THEM ALL.  And from the Nations will come the reapers who will reap in their own Nations.  You will take the Word to them and they will reap in their own Nations.”

I began to speak in tongues again and immediately interpreted.  (This part has to do with my private life but I’ll share it with you here regardless.  It will help anyone who is enduring persecution for the Word’s sake.)  “What Satan meant to harm you with I brought good out of it.  I can take a piece of sand and place it inside of an oyster and from it will come something beautiful, something valuable.  I allowed those two brothers to irritate you and to agitate you, to stir you up to release your faith for the world.  This is how I took what the devil meant for harm, and they did mean to harm you, and I used it to bring rejoicing from sorrow, to give beauty for ashes, and the oil of joy for mourning.”  (I remembered Isaiah 61:3.) 

 “I used it to stir you to faith.  You released your faith for them.  You released your faith for the other leaders in this region who are making the same mistakes that they have made.  You released your faith for your Nation and you ended up releasing your faith for the world." 

"You’ll thank Me for this.  You’ll thank Me a little bit now but more then.  Much more then.  And I’ll thank you and I’ll reward you.  I’ll thank you and I’ll reward you now, but I’ll thank you and reward you much, much more then.  So be encouraged.  Encourage yourself in My Word.  Now you know in part but you’ll know much more then.  Step out now in faith.  This is not the time to withdraw your faith.  This is not the time to ‘fear what man can do to me.’  For if I’m for you, no one can successfully be against you.  You preach it, now keep on believing it. 

“I am coming.  I am coming.  A wave of My Spirit will go before Me across the Nation and across the Earth.  The reapers will reap and from the reaping will come more reapers.  The reapers will come from the reaping.  My Spirit will move across the Earth before I come.  Just as John the Baptist went before Me in the natural, preparing the way for Me, so, too, My Spirit will move before Me, preparing the way for Me.”

I Saw a Man We Would Meet 8 Months Later

The scene I had been seeing changed again.  I was still looking down on the six New England states but now they were covered with millions of tiny faces.  So tiny that I could not distinguish their features.  Suddenly one man’s face lifted up off of the Earth, coming directly towards me.  As he came closer to me, I could clearly see his features.  His forehead was balding.  His eyes were widely spaced.  His nose was small.  His lips were thin.  I could read the tortured expression on his face. 

It said, “Tell me what to do.  If somebody will just show me what to do, I’ll do it.  I want to do the right thing.  I just don’t know how to do it.”  I spoke those words aloud.  I knew in my spirit that he had come up to me representing the millions of other individuals down below.  Individuals whose faces I could not make out because they were so far below me as I hovered above them. 

I was to actually meet this man, in a Divine encounter, eight months later as you will read later in this account. 

I Saw a Line of Delineation Being Drawn

Suddenly a bold black line was drawn from the top to the bottom of the vision.  It appeared to the left of this man’s face and went through many of the faces of the other millions who were covering the New England region.  Again, the Spirit of knowing rose up from within me.  I knew it was a line that would separate the Believers from the unbelievers, the sheep from the goats. (See Matthew 25:32-33.) 

I began to cry out of my spirit with great concern, “Oh, God, I see those faces.  I see their faces and they’re wanting to know what to do.  They’re wanting to know what to do.”  Suddenly the word “delineation” sprung up out of my spirit.  I spoke again, “I see a line of delineation and they need to cross it.  But they need a little bump; they need the urging of the Glory to help them to cross that line.  I see them being separated.”  I began to see faces come more clearly into focus.  They were the faces of people whom I had never seen before. 

They were the faces of people whom I knew really wanted to believe.  They were the faces of people who were sorrowful for their sinful compromising lifestyles.  There were other faces that did not come into view clearly and I knew that those were the ones who did not want to believe.  Those were the people who were not sorrowful for their sinful lifestyles. 

I didn’t know who any of these people were and I burst into tears, speaking prophetically again and demanding … “The ones who won’t repent, the ones who won’t believe, over to one side.  The ones who will believe, over to the other.”  Then I began to pray, “They’re ready to come in but they need the Glory to give them a little push; they need the Glory to give them a little push.  But the Glory that is needed to give them a push to come in will hurt the compromising Believers if they won’t repent.  The leadership, so much of the leadership, is grieving Your Spirit and preventing the Glory from coming.  The leadership needs to repent.  The leadership needs the Gift of Repentance to come to them.”

I broke into tongues again and interpreted.  “The Harvest is plentiful, so plentiful, such an abundant Harvest and so few laborers in comparison.  So many of the laborers are compromising.  So many are compromising and they need the Gift of Repentance.  Ask Me.  Ask Me and I’ll give it to them, too.”

I Saw Two Types of Pastors Represented

Then I began to pray to the Lord again.  “So many of the Pastors are involved in sin and compromise.  They need to repent.  Their sin is affecting the people who submit to them.  They need to bump up or bump out.  They need to move up or they need to be moved out and to be replaced by those who will live right.  They need to be increased or they need to be decreased.  They need to be promoted or they need to be sidelined.  They need to be benched.  Something needs to be done, Lord, and I’m asking You to do it.  Grant to them the Gift of Repentance.  Let the sorrow come to them.  Not the sorrow of the world.  Not the kind of sorrow that is sorry just because they got caught doing something wrong.  But the kind of sorrow that causes them to repent and to begin to do things right again.  Let the wave of sorrow wash over them, causing them to repent, too. 

“If the Pastors won’t repent, then send the people away, Lord.  Send them over to the Pastors who are living right.  Send them to the Pastors who resist immorality.  Send them to the Pastors who are strong in the Word, strong in prayer.  Send them to the Pastors who are strong in faith, the Pastors who have built their faith like a great tree.  A great tree where people can come and be protected under the shadow of it.  Send them over to the protection of the true Pastors.” (Isaiah 61:3.)

Suddenly I was now seeing another vision.  It was of a scruffy little “Charlie Brown” type tree that appeared to be a sick little sapling.  I knew immediately that it was actually an older tree that was not being properly nurtured.  It had been horribly neglected.  It represented the sick diseased works of the Pastors who live in compromise, pride and sin. 

Then, to the left of the sick little tree there appeared a giant mighty Oak tree.  It was strong, vibrant and able to shadow multitudes of people under it, protecting them until their faith could grow to protect themselves.  This tree, I knew, represented the Pastors who are studying, praying, staying humble and living right.

I began to pray out of my spirit again.  “Lord, if they refuse to live right, replace them.  Even if You have to replace them with baby Believers who don’t know as much as they do.  The people would be better off with Pastors who don’t know much but they live clean, than they would be with Pastors who have knowledge but they’re immoral.”

The Sorrow Cloud Reappeared & Jesus Spoke to Me

The smoky, oily, gray cloud or wave of sorrow reappeared.  I spoke aloud again, “I see a wave of sorrow moving across this region, across this Country into the Nations of the world, and the reapers following the sorrow.”  I could see the millions of people beneath me in the Northeast and in the area of Illinois and Indiana and all the places in between.  I knew there were reapers down there following the sorrow for sin, reaping the Harvest of souls.  I spoke again, “Tremendous, tremendous reaping.  Tremendous, tremendous, tremendous reaping going on.  I see it.  Oh, I thought I saw it before, but there’s so many more than even I thought.  So many more.  So many more.  I didn’t know there were so many.”

I continued looking down on what appeared to be the States of Illinois and Indiana.  And they were just jam-packed with people being saved.  There were millions of people being saved in that general area.  These were people who had heard that God was performing miracles and healings.  These were people who had heard that the Gifts of the Spirit were in operation where the Word of God was being preached.  These were people who were greatly convicted for their sinfulness and compromising lifestyles. 

The cloud covered those two States, spreading south down through Missouri and into the States below.  It also spread northwest into Iowa and beyond.  As I was looking down on that region, I heard and spoke these words, “You’ll see so many that you’ll say, ‘I didn’t know there were so many people in this Country.’  You’ll see it and you’ll rejoice even as I rejoice now, because I can see what you can’t see.  I know now what you’ll see then.  You will say, ‘I thought my life was worthless.  I thought my life didn’t mean anything, but this is why I lived.  This is why You let me live.’” 

I began to weep almost uncontrollably, crying deeply.  I struggled to get the following words out as I continued crying deeply, “I lived so these people could live.  This is why I lived.  This is why I’m alive.  Oh, thank You, sweet Jesus.  Thank You for letting me live.  Thank You for letting me live for this.  Thank You for letting me do this, Jesus.  Look at these people, Jesus.  Look at all these people who will now live with You because I lived.  You let me do this, Jesus.”

Suddenly I heard Jesus speak to me again, “‘It’s worth it,’ you’ll say.  You will say it and you will see it.  Wait ‘til you get where I am.  You’ll say, ‘It was worth it, sweet Jesus.’” 

The vision ended as abruptly as it began. I looked over at Barbara holding the recorder.   I had returned from the Spirit realm.

A Divine Encounter with the Man I Saw in the Vision

In October of 2004, we actually met the man whose face I clearly saw in the above vision.  My wife, Barbara, and I were having breakfast in a place we often did.  This man whose forehead, eyes, nose and lips matched identically with the man in the vision, walked up to us.  We did not know him.  He was obviously intoxicated.  He said to me, “I don’t know you but I believe you can help me.  You have what I need.  I don’t know what it is, but you have it.”  We asked him to join us, knowing this was a Divine appointment. 

He sat down with us and immediately spoke the exact words that I heard when I looked at him in the vision eight months earlier.  He spoke the very words Barbara heard me speak into the handheld recorder eight months earlier.  He actually said, “Tell me what to do.  If somebody will just show me what to do, I’ll do it.  I want to do the right thing.  I just don’t know how to do it.”  Barbara and I looked at one another in astonishment.  This was the very same man I saw in my vision eight months earlier.  He was speaking the exact same words I heard and spoke into our recorder at that time. 

We told him that we did indeed have what he needed, sharing Salvation in Christ with him.  He accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior sitting right there.  He sobered up supernaturally as we sat talking and praying. 

He told us his name is John N.  He holds a Doctorate in Nuclear Physics and had managed nuclear power plants for many years.  Three years before our meeting, he drove up to his home after work to discover his house was on fire.  His wife and two children perished in the flames.  He began drinking that very night and continued until the we met him.  He had never gone back to his power plant job, either.  His heart was now filled with sorrow.  He was tired of his lifestyle of drunkenness,  sin and compromise.   

He revealed how he grew up in a home where Satanism and magic were openly practiced, right alongside religious praying.  His grandfather was the renowned Satanist and magician, Israel Regardé, the author of the popular book on magic called “Tree of Life”.  Published in 1932, this book has provided Satanists and aspiring “magicians” with a comprehensive study of magical theory and practice even to this very day.  Israel Regardé is also widely known for the fourteen years he spent as secretary to Anton Szander LaVey, the founder of the Church of Satan.   

Because this part of the February 28, 2004, vision was fulfilled when we met this man, we know the rest will be fulfilled as well.  In the vision, John N. represented the millions more, in just the Northeastern United States alone, who are about to be harvested into God’s family through acceptance of Jesus Christ.

There is presently a wave of sorrow, a wave of God’s transforming Love and Power  being poured out upon our Nation and many Nations of the world, bringing millions, potentially billions, to repentance and salvation through Jesus Christ. It will continue to increase in strength and magnitude well into the future. This is precisely what the Lord showed me in vision form on February 28, 2004.  This is what the Lord has also shown Brother Oral Roberts in his summer of 2004 “Wake Up Call” vision.  Brother Roberts’ vision account can be viewed at www.kcm.org. 

God’s glorious power has come to our shores and will progressively increase.  His  transforming love and power is visiting the peoples of the world, as well.  The Supernatural Gifts of the Holy Spirit in operation are even now beginning to draw the attention of both the saved and the unsaved masses.  This very year, 2006, is the year of Glorious Fulfillment. I believe this will continue to compound for at least the next four years. This is what Believers worldwide have been praying for the past four decades. 

This outpouring of Godly sorrow, transforming love and miraculous power is about to escalate supernaturally on a worldwide scale unlike any other time in all of human history.  The hour of our visitation has come.  Pastors and Ministry Leaders who have been living in sin, simply repent!  You can still be a part of this.   Your Gifts and callings are needed now more then ever. God will forgive you and even increase your Anointing if you’ll get back into fellowship, back into the Word and back into prayer. The untold millions wait to hear your voices!

Please join your faith with ours as we continue to grant the Most High God access to this Earth by praying, “Thank You, Father, for sending Godly sorrow to the peoples of the world.  Godly sorrow that brings them to repentance.  Repentance that brings them to Christ, in Jesus’ Name.” 

“America is about to see her finest hour.”

Soon after my vision, I was watching one of the major “news” outlets on television.  The commentator was speaking in a very negative, cutting manner concerning the present condition of the United States on the world's stage.  The Holy Spirit suddenly spoke these words very strongly into my spirit, “America is about to see her finest hour.”

It is my belief that 2006 is the year God has chosen for all of mankind to begin to see His Love and His Glory in ways we have not yet seen.  I truly believe we are now in the beginning stages of the greatest revival of Christianity and the Power of God’s love in all of human history. 

Now is the time to release our love and our faith, standing together as a Body of Believers, expecting the glorious fulfillment of God's will in the Earth.  Expect billions worldwide to come to the saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, the only Savior of Mankind.

The Glory is no longer coming.  The Glory is here.  This is what the Lord has shown me.  It's time for you to expect your personal miracle as well. 

Jesus specifically said to me, “I want them all.”
