The Angels go WHOOSH
My Vision regarding the use of the Lords Name in Vain
You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
I have a very dear friend, precious in every way.
Once in awhile out of her mouth comes some not so nice words, which always offended me, but I would never say anything because I did not want to hurt her.
She has many health problems and has been on steriods for over 20 years. This making her bones very brittle - as she was turning one day - her leg broke just 2 inches below her hip - she fell on her leg and shattered it.
It took her over 12 hours to reach the phone and her shoulders were weak from MS already, but the reaching over her head and pulling herself along caused carpal tunnel - very painful.
Well over the periods of months - she would get better, then worse - then better, then worse.
I would fall apart at having to watch someone dear to me having to suffer as she did.
One morning as I was laying in bed the Lord gave me this vision.
Vision....
There were many angels working around my friend to bring healing to her - and all of a sudden the Angels would go Whoosh - and all disappear.
Then I would see shafts of light which were prayers of friends and as the shafts of light entered the Throne - hundreds of Angels would gather around and all were in full armor - they would fight their way back through the heavenlies to my friend and start ministering healing again.
Again - Whoosh - they were gone - the same scene again - the shafts of light hit the Throne, Angels gathered around and fought their way back through the heavenlies to my friend to again administer healing.
After watching many times as the Angels went Whoosh and disappeared - I ask God - "Why are the Angels disappearing?"
The Lord said "My name is used so disrespectfully that the Angels cannot minister when My Name is used in this manner - therefore as My Name is used disrespectfully - the Angels must disappear."
Thus the - getting better - then worse - then better - then worse.
At the end of the vision - it was like the Lord put a footnote onto the vision - it said -
"When my name is used disrespectfully, I know it offends you because I see your Spirit jump back - but you do not stand up for me which makes you as guilty as the person using my name in vain."
Boy - did that clobber me over the head - I shared it with several friends and they all just got quiet and said nothing - I was on the phone each time and I would ask 'are you there?' - the silence ended and each of them said - WOW - did that minister to me and that they had some work to do because each of them never stood up for the Lord when they were around someon using the Lords name in vain.
Now the next time you hear someone use the Lord's name in vain - just picture the angels going Whoosh - and remind them that they just chased all the Angels away.
It sure makes a difference when you see it in that light.
Believe me - I never stand still now and listen to the Lord's name being used in vain. I don't care if I offend someone - I would rather offend a person than to offend my Lord.
Hope this hits home with you also.
