Back bav Back in 2020, I had my only Rapture dream. In it, I saw this Gigantic angel shout. What came out his mouth was not a voice, but a sound that produced a powerful vibration. This illustration I just completed is based on what I saw in my dream. I wanted to share it with the group. Thank you for sharing Brad! ...For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, The word “descend” literally means to go down. The Lord Himself will descend personally from heaven to the sky. If there is to be Rapture, He can employ no lesser agency or person than Himself. He is the resurrection and the life (John 11:25). The word “shout” carries the idea of a call, summons, shout of command. This shout is a signal for the church to get ready for the Lord to rapture it. Jesus will summon His church to be with Him forever, just as a general would summon his soldiers or an admiral, his sailors. Such a shout both demands and expects instant compliance even in the heat of battle. The call knows no defeat in the conflict and conquest. There can be only one result once the life-giving voice of the Son of God rings forth (John 11:43; 5:25, 28-29). with the voice of an archangel, An “archangel” is an angel of exalted rank, the highest rank of any angel. Jesus’ shout will be with the authority of the ultimate rank of an archangel. The Rapture is one of the greatest interventions in the affairs of men in the history of the universe. It is backed by all the authority, power, and majesty of heaven. The Rapture marks not only the culmination of the progressive sanctification of the saint but also the completion and glorification of the church. No wonder Jesus shouts with the voice of an archangel. This is an announcement of the victory of the redeemed over sin and the world. “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.” Phil3:20-21 https://versebyversecommentary.com/1999/07/16/1-thessalonians-416/ .

Thanks for sharing :good: Awesome and detailed artistry Brad — Very bold and capable looking and I would love to hear that dream shout today :prayer-hands: No Problem. Glad you liked it. Amen, Tammie! This resonated with me what you said about the voice. Ten years ago, maybe a little less. As I woke up, I heard what I think was an angel. The voice sounded exactly like an accordion played through a deep tunnel with that echo of a tunnel. What it said was, "There are no numbers in heaven" And thats it. The Lord has many ways to share His truth. WOW! Beautiful!!! . . Imagining Heavenly hosts thrilled, excited with joy, gazing on our God as He speaks His Heart of Love to His Bride so near the catching away ~ ~ . . . oh, we do see a grand finale of His Creative divine Majestic tapestry ready for full display, don't we, . . yes so near completion. ~~ .

Well, my rambling message disappeared... so, here's the shorter version Brad- Thank you!! I love this! Seems to me God is revealing the power in His Kingdom People settle like the Bible says for a form of godliness without the power Our God is the God of the whole Bible! He is holy & just & extremely powerful! We have hope and security in Him because of His faithfulness which comes from His willingness and ability to keep His promises!
