His Glory Train is Coming

Theme of this file: All Aboard His Glory Train

On 11/7/99 I posted the following "All Aboard His Glory Train" to my Quickened Word E-mail list. In response, I received wonderful encouraging rhema from others around the world and it is included in this file, along with other train rhema. It is interesting that as I was preparing this file, I heard a train whistle in the distance from outside my window. Then I heard a second one about an hour later. I could not remember when I last heard a train whistle.

1] ALL ABOARD HIS GLORY TRAIN

Words of His coming glory

Compiled by Sandy Warner

11/7/99

Hi Loved Ones,

For at least 12 years the Lord has been speaking to His prophetic intercessors about His coming glory train. In 1987, my Mom, (we call her Grandma Anna) was awakened by a huge blast of a train whistle in her bedroom. The Lord spoke to her about His coming train. Since then, we have been waiting for this train with great anticipation.

This year the Lord shared that His train is VERY close. At the Cornerstone Church conference where Mahesh Chavda was speaking, Mahesh shared a vision. He had arrived from the airport with just enough time to rest before the evening meeting. As he was resting he saw the face of an Indian with his ear to the ground and a very large smile across his face. The perspective grew and he could see that the Indian was listening for vibration on some train tracks. The Lord told him that His glory train was coming and it would be loaded with many gifts.

Several minutes later Mahesh stepped down from the platform. I was sitting on the 2nd row because I was blessed to be a part of the ministry team, and he stood right in front of us. He was speaking of the Lord’s coming glory and said, "Get ready to feel the rumble of the train!" At that exact moment, I literally felt very strong vibrations under my tennis shoes. I was struck by His Spirit and I could literally feel the rumble through my feet. The vibrations entered my feet, traveled up my legs, to my stomach and I immediately erupted into radical shaking. I was shaking like a leaf all over! It was a powerful experience! (Psalm 99:1)

Because Mahesh had seen an Indian, and the geographical location of this conference had a strong Indian history, he said that the glory train was coming to Southern Oregon, USA. I live north of Southern Oregon and all through the conference I kept saying to the Lord, "Oh Lord we have been standing for Your glory train to come for many years! Please come to our little church too!" On the way home from the conference, I did not know this, but some of our intercessors had also been praying all the way home that the Lord’s glory would come to our little church. As their car moved north, they prayed that they were bringing His "train tracks" with them. By the time they drove into our little church parking lot, they had gold dust all over them. That same morning, as I was also traveling north, a sun beam came through the car window and I saw gold glitter all over my clothes and hands. It was my first experience with gold dust and I was very blessed.

The conference was an awesome conference and during Mahesh’s Watch of the Lord, I (and others) saw His cloud, smelled the incense of the prayers of His saints, and I literally breathed into my lungs vapor and humidity from His descending cloud. His Presence was so totally awesome, that I did not want the conference to be over. So, when we were driving home AFTER the conference the next morning, you can see why the appearance of the gold glitter was so special. Like the other intercessors, it had also been my prayer to bring back the glory of the Lord from the conference to our little church. I knew the gold glitter was a sign and confirmation that He would come there too.

In 1997, Bobby Conner also saw a vision of the Lord’s coming glory train. The following is a quote from that vision: "This prophetic experience came January 8, 1997. As the vision started, I saw a very intense white light. The light began to sweep over me, and a voice standing to my right side in the light said, "Look what is coming down the track and around the bend. It is God's Gold and Diamond Train." Suddenly I saw the train tracks. One side of the track was named "Truth" and the other side was "Spirit." (end of quote)

For several years the Lord has been saying that His glory is coming to the earth, and it will be ushered in on the wings of worship. Jesus said, "But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." (John 4:23-25 NKJV)

According to the Greek, one way to apply this scripture is that we worship Him with blasts of air through our mouths, (as coming from our spirits) and we worship Him without hiding. Our worship and adoration of Him is to be vocal, unashamed, unabashed and thoroughly manifested!

The word spirit (NT:4151) in the Greek means,

pneuma (pnyoo'-mah); from NT:4154; a current of air, i.e. breath (blast) or a breeze; by analogy or figuratively, a spirit, i.e. (human) the rational soul, (by implication) vital principle, mental disposition, etc., or (superhuman) an angel, demon, or (divine) God, Christ's spirit, the Holy Spirit.

The word truth (NT:225) comes from a root word meaning not concealed:

NT:225

aletheia (al-ay'-thi-a); from NT:227; truth:

NT:227

alethes (al-ay-thace'); from NT:1 (as a negative particle) and NT:2990; true (as not concealing):

NT:2990

lanthano (lan-than'-o); a prolonged form of a primary verb, which is used only as an alternate in certain tenses; to lie hid (literally or figuratively); often used adv. unwittingly: KJV-be hid, be ignorant of, unawares.

This week I attended Steve Shultz’s first mini conference for the Elijah list. (It was north of where I live, in Oregon.) As soon as worship started, the room was electrified with the Lord’s Presence. I sensed that it was packed with many angels as people poured their hearts out to Him; dancing, singing, shouting, raising their hands and unashamedly bearing their love for their King. It was interesting to me that when Steve had asked for a show of hands, it appeared that only about 20% of the people came from the church in which it was held. The rest of the people did not know one another… but as soon as worship began, they were immediately kindred hearts exuberantly worshipping their first Love.

During worship, I saw and heard several Words & pictures as I glanced at people in the room. There was a strong prophetic anointing in the gathering. Most of what I saw and heard I felt was specific to the people I saw, but two in particular I felt were Words for all of us.

I saw flickering flames about 10" tall on the head of Steve Shultz and also in the general direction of the singers on the platform. I heard the Lord say, "Chosen." Later I saw the wheels of His glory train start to move! I am not sure of the language of trains :) but on trains, there is a cross bar attached to the wheels. That cross bar has a starting point where it begins to move, then as the steam of the engine builds, the cross bar starts to move faster and faster, propelling the wheels and train forward, also faster and faster. I saw the crossbar just as it started its first rotation forward. Then I saw the wheels of the train begin to move.

I was VERY excited about seeing this, as this is His glory train! HALLELUJAH! Later as I was thinking about His glory being ushered in on the wings (or tracks!) of worship, I realized that when we entered into worship that night, the passion and flames were instantly ignited and what I saw was a sign that this kind of worship was moving His glory forward. I remembered that the Lord had given me a Word to Ponder about passionate worship and when I looked it up, there were the flickering flames!

HOLY FIRE

From Words to Ponder, Volume 2

"A fire is building. Watch the flames flicker with each gust of wind. As I breath upon My people, the wind takes hold of each ember to burst forth new flames of kindled heat. Watch the fire. It grows hotter as each hour passes. Watch it build as My people return to their first love…. The flames of passion from My people grow, as they worship Me with all of their strength... The glow of desire becomes more intense as they seek Me with all of their hearts… The luminescence of their minds electrifies as they hunger for My Words. The flame grows hotter. The passion deepens.

My people, who stir My heart. My people, who draw out My great longings to respond to your unabashed love. Call on Me and I will answer! Seek Me and I will be found. The cloud of My Presence will descend upon the earth, and you will be found in Me for I dwell in the praises of My people. I long to dwell in the midst of your fiery passion. Let the fires burn. Let them burn deeply."

"For our God is a consuming fire." (Hebrews 12:29)

"And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:13)

"Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck." (Song of Solomon 4:9)

[end of Word to Ponder]

As an application to this culminating Word, I believe that the Lord is saying several things:

His glory comes through radical, unhidden worship.

The worship of God’s people is igniting the heart of God and He is moving His glory forward. It will begin slowly, and build passionate steam until it moves faster and faster.

Have hope! As we experience His glory, then when we go forth, we build "glory tracks" to the places that we intercede over.

God’s glory train is coming to Oregon!

Steve’s Elijah list conference was a beginning or a birth of a new ministry for him, and the Lord’s blessing and glory will be upon these kindred heart gatherings.

The night I came home from the Elijah List conference, I heard the Lord call, "ALL ABOARD!!" He is calling us all to anticipate the arrival of His glory train, prepare its tracks via intercession and worship…. and then climb aboard as He pulls into a depot near you!

Lovingly,

Sandy

2] PROPHETIC EXPERIENCE: THE ROAR OF A TRAIN

Subj: RE:The Glory Train

From: prophecy2001@juno.com (Rebecca S Lindrose)

To: SWauthor@aol.com

Dear Sandy;

I recently read your prophetic message about "The Glory Train" from the Elijah List and wanted to share a similar story that I hope will encourage you. Two years ago I woke up to the sound of a train coming through my bedroom. It was huge and LOUD! It roared past the end of my bed and out the opposite bedroom wall. There was a train whistle and that plus the loud sound of the steam coming from the train caused my ears to hurt. Upon waking from the dream, the noise had deafened my ears so that I was unable to hear for 2 full days! My husband and kids can testify to this story--they remember when Mom couldn't hear and had to read lips to understand what others were saying. No one in my church could explain the vision. I knew it was the glory train of the Lord though. Thanks for sharing your Word!

Sincerely,

Rebecca Lindrose

Dear Sandy,

I just had to send this to you! The Lord spoke this to me the 4th, as you

can see. It excited me to receive your message tonight.

The Glory Train

11/4/99 11:14 p.m.

In a vision, the Lord showed me a train station. I saw a silver passenger train. Then a life-sized cardboard figure of a man appeared. He was nice looking and dressed in a blue suit. What does this mean, Lord?

I am about to show My children across the face of the earth some interesting facts. All is not as it appears. I want My children to know that the living God is about to demonstrate His power and might. He is about to give testimony to His greatness. I am calling My children to line up and march into My territory.

I am telling you, beloved, that the time for making a decision is NOW. There can be no more ambivalence on your part. You must seek the living God now, while He may be found. He is about to show you, who will come close to Him, some very interesting facts about Himself. He is calling you closer into a living reality of who He is and what His grand and glorious plans are for YOUR future. He wants you to see Him up close dressed in His finest attire. He wants you to take the step up close and peer into His eyes….fall into His waiting arms. The living God is about to explain Himself. He is about to show Himself in power and majesty.

Will you be ready? Will you be on time? The time is NOW. Don’t hang back. Don’t go back for more baggage. I have all you will need. I have all you will ever need. Don’t look back, beloved. Don’t even look over your shoulder at the world. I am departing on this silver train with or without you. I am taking all who have sought Me and given to Me their whole hearts.

While on the train you will make many discoveries about Me. You will see up close that the God, whom you serve, is in the business of giving you a first class time. He will not put you in the cattle car. He has a dining car filled with the finest of treats for you to enjoy. Your God is ready. Are you ready, beloved? If you are, come close and hear the, "All Aboard" from the Conductor’s lips. He is standing there waiting to see that you get on board without any mishaps. He will help you aboard.

He will punch your ticket. He will give you a stub. Keep it with you. Keep it in your pocket. That is really all you will need for this trip. That is really all you will ever need. Look at the stub after He punches it. Can you read the writing on the stub? Can you tell what kind of puncher He used to make that funny looking hole. You say, "It looks like a cross." Yes, beloved. It is a cross. It is the cross of your Lord God. He is asking you to carry it. Can you carry it? It is as light as air, beloved. It is merely punched out of your ticket…. a ticket with the stain of My blood on it. Look at that stain. You say, "Thank you, Father, for giving your Son that I mighty have life." I say to you, "I did it for a purpose, beloved. I did it that I might have you with Me forever." Now I am calling you closer, beloved.

I want to give you your ticket. You have My seal in you, but this particular trip requires a ticket. It is a ticket called "holiness." I am calling all of My children to holiness. Will you come forth eagerly and let Me make you holy? You must know that all that is not of Me is excess baggage. You must leave all behind that has a hint of the world on it. Can you come forward and receive this cleansing? Can you lay aside all that is not of Me and receive this ticket called, "holiness"? You need it for this trip, beloved. You need it for this most interesting trip, because this is the "Glory Train." This is the "Glory Train Express." All aboard! All aboard! The "Glory Train Express" is about to leave, with all of its able bodied participants to attend this last day extravaganza.

You ask Me, "Father, what about those who are left behind, who wish to serve you?" I say to them, "Lay all your excess baggage aside and hop on. I say, Lay ALL your excess baggage aside and come to Me. I am taking all who will come on this trip. I am calling all who will come to participate in this extravaganza. I am hoping you will come. But know this, if you are left behind eternity awaits you…it certainly awaits you, but I am calling you now to a glorious time aboard My "Glory Train". Will you come? Will you lay aside all that is not of Me and come?"

4] VISION: THE TRAIN IS COMING TO RELEASE THE CAPTIVES

From: Mark Kaphaem <kapmando@davesworld.net>

Date: Sat, 2 Oct 99 13:09:55 -0500

For about a week now whenever I close my eyes I see the picture of a train moving down the tracks. I looked up the verse Eph. 4:8 This is why it says: "When he ascended on high, he led captives in his train and gave gifts to men."

But I was still not sure what the Lord was saying. Then the Lord brought a old Johnny Cash song to mind.

"I hear the train a comin' it's rollin 'round the bend and I a'int seen the sunshine since I don't know when. I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on. But that train keeps a movin' on to-San-An-Tone."

As many of you have read we have more people in prison right now then any time in History. We are second only to the Russia but will soon pass them up. The Lord said the prisons are "Full of His Son's". I see this as two fold.

The prisons around the world are full of Christians, some there because they are Christians, some became Christians after they were put there.

Second, many of His son's and daughter's are in spiritual prison. They have gifts for the body but are locked out from using them.

The Lord says, "My train is coming, you came see the smoke now. (His Glory) No prison bars will hold My children. This train will not pass you by.

The tracks of this train lead right through the prisons, the tracks of this train lead right through the church. I will bring freedom to My son's and daughter's. There will be a great celebration of gift giving as they are released.

I believe this is a literal word for Christians who are now in prison. I believe the Lord will bring a period of amnesty and many will be released. The Lord has been preparing these men and women and they have much to give the church.

I also see governments that have been imprisoning Christians being overthrown or having a change of heart.

Watch for these, welcome them into your fellowship, give them place. They have much to offer the body.

We say yes Father, free your children. The body needs them.

5] VISION: THE PEIRCING TRAIN LIGHT COMING IN POWER

Date: 11/07/1999 8:50:18 PM Pacific Standard Time

From: LeeMin2

To: SW Author

What a glorious sharing. In 1994, the Lord revealed a glory train to me. I was attending a refreshing meeting led by Gil Howard-Browne up in Virginia. While in the meeting, I saw a train approaching me. It was coming at "train speed" and had an enormously bright light on the front of the train. I knew it was His Glory. As the train approached me, I thought to myself "I'm not going to live through this." The train came and the light of the Glory of the Lord on the front of the train went into my spirit and instantly turned me around to go with the train. The train and I became one.

Just this past week, while holding a meeting at the church my husband and I pastor, I was praying for a brother in our church. He was having difficulty receiving all of his portion from the Lord at that moment; the "backlash" of that anointing flowed into me and caused me to fall backwards with no catchers--didn't get hurt at all. On the floor, mild electrical currents flowed through me. After about an hour or so, I was able to get up. I stood for a few moments, closed my eyes again (always a "mistake"), and went back into the anointing again. Once again I fell backwards. This time, the electrical currents were on the floor where I was lying. I felt like I was lying in a live electrical field.

Then I began to see a vision. I saw the Glory of God come down over me. Its light was brighter than white. I knew instantly what it was. Then I saw the power of this Glory concentrate into round, light gold-colored balls on the side nearest to me. They were too numerous to count. I marveled at His Glory.

Being inquisitive as I am, I asked as I usually do, "Lord, what is your purpose?" I was able to stand at this point - with help - and then was led to sit in a chair until I could contain myself. Then it began...at intervals the electrical currents began to shake my body strongly. My insides and my outside were shaking. Then it would stop. Then it would begin again. Over and over this happened. This continued for over 45 minutes, I was told. It was like electrocution--yet it was dealt in merciful installments so as not to consume me. At one point, I asked for prayer, because I thought if it continued and increased, I would die. I didn't fear anything other than the idea that I could not withstand this amount of power in me.

I went home from our church, went to bed, and laid in a "twilight" all night long. I never went into slumber. I was not tired the next day.

Time and time again I've had Him to reveal Himself to me in ways like the above. Some of it is for immediate strength and ministry for days to come; other times, it is "on hold" for later interpretation. I am now beginning to have some understanding of why He has revealed Himself this way. I agree with "All Aboard His Glory Train"--His train is very close!

Good to receive your words!

In Him, Pastor Carolyn Lee, Greensboro, N.C.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi Carolyn,

I am so blessed for your sharing your testimony of His touch! The same thing happened to me. It got to be quite funny because even at night as I would lay in bed trying to sleep, I would hear even one tiny Word via His still small voice, and I would break out in radical shaking. The whole bed would be pounding. It was like every molecule in my body was so tuned to His voice that I would erupt like a volcano with the electrical currents.

You mentioned you have been seeking Him for interpretation. I can share with you what He said to me when this first occurred. First He said, "Daughter, you are anointed." At that moment His first "electrical shock waves" jolted through me. There were many, many to come after that first time! The second thing He shared with me during that season, was that He was getting me used to His Presence and His power, so that I would be able to stand and learn to minister under such a heavy influence of His power. We all respond to His Presence differently, but He is definitely getting us used to the recognition of such, and this will be a great comfort, strengthening of our faith, and also empowering for awesome ministry and deliverance. Praise Him!

Lovingly,

Sandy

6] TRAIN TRIVIA CONNECTS TO PROPHETIC REVELATION

The Firemen are Still on the Train!

Date: 11/08/1999 11:35:42 AM Pacific Standard Time

From: irishmom3@hotmail.com (Christine Fields)

To: SWauthor@aol.com

Precious Sister in Jesus,

I just read your GLORY TRAIN post, and wanted to bless you with a little bit of train-trivia.

Years ago my husband worked on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in Ohio. He was hired on as a "fireman" The curious thing about this position was that, all the engines were now diesel, and no longer needed a man to shovel coals into the fire to keep the engine hot and fired. However, because of the Railroad Union pressures, the job title remained with some small duties. We were so grateful for the income in those early days of our married life, but it was humbling for my husband, because he had just completed his degree in mechanical and nuclear engineering, and here he was riding on a diesel engine, making coffee and small talk instead of using his education in the way he had hoped.

Well, other jobs came along, but until reading your post, I never saw any significance to that job, other than it was an income. However, as I read your post, I sensed that God has never released His "firemen" from His train. Although, for so long, we have operated on our own fuel and tried to make things go in the church, but really, without the true dynamos of God. But He has had His prophetic intercessors everywhere...laying track (vision and faith), shoveling coals of holy intercession from the altar in heaven, fueling this Glory Train, stirring up the passions of God's heart to reveal His awesome Beauty and Character, shaking the nations with the trembling of His approach.

I am so encouraged by the Holy Spirit through this word, because I am in a small church, and a few of the intercessors are so desperate now, so longing, so searching the horizon, so aching for God to move in our midst the way we hear He is in so many other places. "What ever it takes" is our plea. We are willing for it to be anywhere in our region, but we must have His glorious Presence in a greater measure than we have known it. So many young people are being snatched from our arms, and only the genuine move of Almighty God will capture their hearts and minds. We say with the prophet, "Give them up" and we will not stop until we see them walking in the destiny

for which they were created.

Let me close with a thanks for your wonderful postings, and praise to the Lord for His wonderful message of hope.

His prisoner of love,

Chris Fields

7] THE COAL AND THE RAILROAD SPIKE

Date: 11/09/1999 12:52:37 PM Pacific Standard Time

From: tentpeg@bellsouth.net

To: SWauthor@aol.com

Hello Sandy,

I get the "Rivermail" list and I saw your message so I was just interested in writing. About 4 1/2 years ago, my husband and I visited Saluda Grade in SC, which I guess is the steepest grade standard railroad track in the US (if I remember correctly). While we walked up to the highest point, there were some men fixing the track and we picked up two things: a railroad spike, and a piece of coal (that had obviously fallen off ones of the trains that passed). Both of those were significant.

The Holy Spirit painted a spiritual understanding for us that the tracks were being repaired in preparation for the 'glory train' coming through. The coal meant that there was cleansing coming: "Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. And he touched my mouth with it, and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; Your iniquity is taken away, And your sin purged." (Isa 6:6-7 NKJV)

The railroad spike was for us a prophetic symbol, it represented the "Watch of the Lord" which we would become involved with, and also because of Bonnie Chavda's "Dead With A Peg" message, which identified the railroad spike as a "tent peg" (a visual thing, Judges 4 & 5). "Tentpeg Ministries" eventually became the name of our ministry.

Well, your post just blessed me because we know Mahesh & Bonnie, and also because of your report of "the Elijah List" which I have been trying to find out how to get on! :-). So from you're message I found out where to get on that list, you mentioned Mahesh and reminded me of a prophetic experience in our lives! Good message! Hehehe.

As far as your church, does it do the Watch? And as far as the glory coming, yes and amen! It'll be little churches as well as big ones, doesn't matter to the Lord. Some little churches will find that they become much bigger overnight when the people come because the glory's there!

Well, just wanted to write. God Bless and take care.

Love,

Laura Healy

9] DREAM: THE SPEEDING TRAIN

From: -- prophetic_voice@angelfire.com

Date: 11/29/99 1:15:47 PM Pacific Standard Time

In my dream I was on board a very fast moving train. Faster and more powerful than any train that I had ever seen. Then a voice said to me "Go, and look out the window." The train was moving at a very high rate of speed, and it seemed that the tracks were a bit uneven, because I could scarcely stand up without holding on to something. I finally made my way over to the large horizontal window and peered out. The train was moving faster than any land vehicle that I have ever been on. We were passing through fields and meadows and rolling hills. I could see old abandoned towns. Housing tracts that had been leveled by parked and rusting bulldozers. There were heaps of rubble piled up at the edges of these clean, scraped out areas along the train's route.

The scenery was very familiar to me, and I realized that this train was blazing across Oregon, from the East to the West. This train would cross the state in a very short period of time.

I left the window and made my way up to the engine. When I reached the very front of the train, I was looking out a window that looked down the nose of the train and I could see the tracks that we were traveling over and the region ahead of us. The train was rounding a bend and I noticed that the rails were not resting on normal railroad ties, the kind that we would usually find on a railroad track. Instead, they were resting on many different types of wood. It seemed to me that the tracks were put together in an unorthodox manner.

Then I awoke. Here is the interpretation:

The train is a powerful move of God, the likes of which we have never seen. When it hits, no person will be able to stand under their own power. The old abandoned towns are personal ministries that people have left and let die {John 12:24}. The bulldozed parcels of land are the hearts of people who have scraped away all the old works of the flesh, and have a firm foundation on which to build {1Cor 3:11;Eph 2:20} new, Godly works. The rails on which this train were running were supported by onorthodox methods, nevertheless, they were wood, just like the old railroad ties, and just as capable of supporting the rails and the train. The different kinds of wood are different kinds of people, whereas in the past, the rails had rested on pieces of wood that all looked basically the same, now they rested on varying types. Just like moves of God in times past, when the leaders of these moves {And Godly leaders they were!}were mostly men, and some women, they were all pretty much the same. This time, the people that God uses to facilitate this move will be of all different types. Men, Women, Teens, and Children! They will be of all denominations and of all levels of maturity in Christ. There will be no doubt that it is a move of GOD!

It will be in an "unorthodox" manner. Much like the moves of God in the mid-to-late 0's {i.e. Toronto, Brownsville, Smithton, etc} which at the time seemed to be very onorthodox {to say the least!}...This move will be even more unorthodox, yet without violating the Word of God, or His nature and character. It will be God! Though all will acknowledge the "Different-ness" of this move, all {almost all, there will always be the naysayers and tongue waggers} will agree that it is God!

As to the window...Like the move of God in the last decade or so which emphasized the prophetic, this move will also have a prophetic slant. But not so much on actually prophesying, or calling prophetic people, intercessors, or actual prophets, but in the FULFILLMENT of prophetic utterances and prophecies in the Word of God as yet unfulfilled.

One more thing...This move of God is coming very quickly, it will blow through here like a bullet train.

Get ready Church! God is on the move in a way you and I have never seen!

Praise the Lord!!

Sincerely His-

10] GRANDMA ANNA TRAIN RHEMA

[Comment from Sandy: As a prophetic intercessor and scribe, Grandma Anna has been hearing and recording the Lord’s still small voice, dreams & visions since the 70’s. The following are some excerpts of her "Train" rhema. It is important to understand that Grandma Anna usually hears the Lord in riddles which is what the Bible calls dark speech. She often hears a sentence or so at a time, not remembering what she wrote down the time before. These are things that require pondering and chewing to understand. Sometimes they are not understood until after they come to pass.]

VISION: AT TRAIN DEPOT

Grandma Anna 10/25/85: After ending a fast and filling ill after eating my first food, I saw a vision. I was in a train depot getting ready to be sent somewhere. I was being wrapped in a big sheet like a stork carrying a baby. Someone said, "This is precious cargo."

~~~~~~~~~~~

DREAM: TRAIN WHISTLE

Grandma Anna 8/28/87: I was waiting for the Lord to come and I heard a train whistle. I said, "OK here He comes!" (When I awakened I literally heard a train whistle.)

~~~~~~~~~~~

OPENED EARS - HEARD THE TRAIN WHISTLE

Grandma Anna 10/27/87:

HEARD: 3 TRAINS OF CORRECTIONS:

1. Spirit needing correction in directing.

2. New ground. New territory.

3. Break new ground and take new territory

HEARD: BLEW THE WHISTLE IN THREE AREAS:

1. Where the train has been.

2. Where the train is now.

3. Where the train is going..

OPENED EARS: Then I heard a very LOUD TRAIN WHISTLE

Anna Comment: You haven't lived until a train comes through your bedroom! The Lord has a way with turning my dreams into reality at times! There is a short period when I am wide awake and yet still in the dream. I'm really in a dazed state with it all. I awoke with my heart pounding and very startled!

~~~~~~~~~~~

BORING THROUGH THE OBSTACLES AND WAITING FOR THE WHISTLE

Grandma Anna 9/21/89:

HEARD: Boring through. Hear it? Pick against pick. Aha! Water flows from the spring to the pool. Sold. Bought. Mine. Down the track. Wait for the whistle. A loud one.

Singing a new song.

~~~~~~~~~~~

HEARD THE TRAIN WHISTLE

Grandma Anna 3/11/92:

HEARD: Know one knows it yet. Side seats bless the house. Still waiting. As the new baby began to sing, the words began tightening. Who is she I cried? The child of a king who is a king. Then I heard a train whistle

~~~~~~~~~~~

HEARD DARK TIMES AHEAD

Grandma Anna 8/28/92:

HEARD: Wake up. The time is now to put on your garments to dress for winter. Hard times are ahead. Not by sight. Timing. All My ways. Let praise come forth from among you now. A song in the night. In the dark. Truth coming. Keep walking. Night will disappear. Promise fulfilled. Last but not least. Coming soon. Hope deferred. Your heart is fixed.

Let praise come forth from among us now. Boot camp. No live ammunition. Coming. Wait for it. Model. A train whistle. Will blow loud and clear.

[Sandy Comment: This is an excerpt from that night’s rhema. Grandma Anna also heard that this Word was not for that time (1992), but it would come. I believe that the Lord is now blowing the whistle, and the hard times are coming. We also have His glorious promise of His glory train as the darkness presses in.]

~~~~~~~~~~~

VISION OF THE COMING TRAIN

Grandma Anna 5/25/93:

HEARD: Much has come to light. These are they who are underneath, harnessed. Free. Sail. Clean and every whit whole. Where's the money? They are. Spendable. Its the way of all men. Created toward this. Hi Adam. You're on second. Run for home base. Where did he come from? Been there all along. You just couldn't see him. By My power he was raised. Look for him. Where? Under the fig leaf.

Stand here in this place. I'm going to cry grace, grace to you. Where did you get all those eyes? Today Grand Central Station.

VISION: Then I saw a vision of a train coming head on, very close, within a few feet of me.

HEARD: He's hidden. Going to stay hidden until the time of restitution of all things. First lay the foundation. Living stones. Fitted together. All in their place. Can't wait until it happens? It did. Receive. The last Adam a quickening spirit.

~~~~~~~~~~~

HEARD A WARNING

Grandma Anna 8/21/93:

HEARD: Let it rain. Let it rain. Don't miss the glory train.

~~~~~~~~~~~

DREAM WARNING - DO NOT FALL ASLEEP

Grandma Anna 3/8/94:

Dream Scene 1 - I was leaping onto the steps of a moving train, grabbing at the metal bars.

Scene 2

It was as though I was a train. I saw the signals move as I turned the corner.

Scene 3

I was on a train, falling asleep.

HEARD: Resolve it.

Anna Possible Interpretation: The Lord is warning, do not fall asleep and thus not recognize the hour and the reality to which we are called.

~~~~~~~~~~~

DREAM CATCHING THE TRAIN

Grandma Anna 1/29/94:

DREAM: I heard a train whistle and knew I had to catch that train. I sent someone ahead to stop it, grabbed my swimming suit and called out to my Daddy to take me to the train. The car door wouldn't close so we drove with it opened. We followed a bus to the train. The destination sign on the front of the bus was lit up. I couldn’t read the first word. But the second word was EXPRESS.

Anna Possible Interpretation: The Lord likens what is currently happening to His chosen ones hearing the train whistle, and knowing they are to CATCH THAT TRAIN. The whistle has been blown in the heavens and will soon be blown on earth.

The Holy Spirit has been sent ahead of us to stop the train, and the Father will join us. We will grab our swimming suits to swim in the deep water. The door will not close as we drive, because others will join us. In the past I have had rhema about the TRUTH BUS. We are following the TRUTH EXPRESS BUS to find the Glory Train.

~~~~~~~~~~~

PROPHETIC EXPERIENCE

Grandma Anna 11/13/94: I was awakened with vibrations going through my body as though a train was passing by. Then I heard the Lord say as though He were repeating what I had said, "I'm sure glad what Jesus answered, "Come apart to a desert place and rest a while."

~~~~~~~~~~~

PROPHETIC EXPERIENCE: ALARM WARNING

Grandma Anna 1/23/95: I heard my doorbell. Then I heard a train whistle.

Anna’s Comments: The Lord is referring to past rhema about where the train has been, where the train is now, and where the train is going. The Lord is knocking on the door to pick us up and take us to our final destination. This is a very important time frame. We need to be packed and ready to go and in a position to hear the bell when it rings, ready to leap into His arms. I can't hear the bell when the toilet is flushing, when bath water is being run or when I'm vacuuming. So I understand Him to mean, hindrances need to be gone with our faith strong, through being washed by the water of the logos and rhema Word. We need to be separated from worldly pursuits and waiting on top of the hill of our Lord with pure hands and a clean heart. This means being at peace, being content in the state we find ourselves, no longer striving with Him.

~~~~~~~~~~~

PROPHETIC EXPERIENCES: TRAIN WHISTLES

Grandma Anna 6/24/95: I heard a very loud train whistle which blew twice.

Grandma Anna 8/8/95: I literally heard a train whistle.

Grandma Anna 8/22/95: I again heard a train whistle.

Grandma Anna 8/26/95: I have never heard so many very loud train whistles that lasted so very long. They seemed like they were in my bedroom! They blew over and over again. The Lord has certainly been emphasizing them to me.

Grandma Anna 12/29/99: At 7:05 AM, I heard the Lord speak, "The train station." It was quickened to me to look up the number 705 in the Strong’s Hebrew & Greek. (H. Forty. G. To number.)

A possible interpretation is that forty speaks of the years of being in the wilderness. To number, speaks of those God has numbered to come out of the wilderness. These numbered ones are going to the train station to catch God's glory train and leave the wilderness. YA HOOOOOOOOO!

Notes from Strongs:

H705 ~y[iB'r>a; 'arba`iym {ar-baw-eem'} ¤ multiple of 0702; TWOT - 2106b; n,adj pl ¤ AV - forty 132, fortieth 4; 136 ¤ 1) forty

11] PASTOR DALE TRAIN RHEMA

Pastor Dale Howell: Cornerstone Church, Grants Pass, Oregon USA

E-Mail: cschurch@chatlink.com

Website:http://www.jesus-connect.net/world/Prophecy/cschurch

I had several days in a row where the Lord was speaking to me about trains:

PROPHETIC PARABLE: TRAIN IS ALREADY ACTIVATING THE WARNING LIGHTS

Pastor Dale 03/18/97:

Last night when I was approaching the railroad tracks near our house on Booth Street, the red lights were flashing and the cross arms were going up and down. A man motioned me through, indicating that there was no train. As I approached, the cross arms quit moving up and down as if to let me pass. Then they began flashing and moving up and down again as soon as I was past.

I remembered this only when I was going to the church today, and again the red lights were flashing and the cross arms were going up and down. Again they quit as I approached and allowed me to pass. This time they did not start again after I passed through.

Both times there was no sign of a train. I knew that the Lord was using the natural signs to speak of a spiritual train that was coming, and was so close that it was already activating the warning lights.

~~~~~~~~~~~

THERE'S A GLORY TRAIN A COMIN'

Pastor Dale 03/20/97:

In the prayer room today Rose said that she keeps hearing one phrase being sung, "There's a train a comin." She said she hears it to the tune of "Sweet Wind." When she asked the Lord what it was, he told her it was a glory train. This is so interesting because I have been thinking about trains for three days.

KEYS PARABLE: Eric brought me a new key ring yesterday and there was a new anointing bottle on it that was full. He said, "You should be able to tell your keys from everyone else’s because I stamped them special for you." I looked at my keys and he had stamped them G3. He smiled at me when I looked at them and asked me if I knew what the G3 meant. I said, "Yes, that is my Jeep license plate number: Glory 3." I realized that there it was again, the Glory train. The Lord had spoken to me recently in the mouth of 3 witnesses besides myself; Sandy, Rose and Eric.

~~~~~~~~~~~

PROPHETIC PUN

Pastor Dale 03/21/97:

Rose brought up trains again and I started hearing an old country song that was a gag song back in the eighties. It is a song where the singer imitates other well know country singers such as Charlie Pride, Merle Haggard, and Waylon Jennings. The song writer comments, in the middle of the song, that he thought he had written the perfect country and western song, but his good friend said that it was not the perfect country and western song, because it didn't have anything in it about getting drunk, momma, rain, trains, prison, or trucks. So he wrote another line to the song; "I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison. I went to pick her up in the pouring rain. But before I got to the station in my pickup truck, she got runned over by a danged old train."

Don't laugh, but it was obvious that the Lord was using it to speak to me prophetically. Let me interpret; "I was drunk in the Spirit the day my mom (the church) got out of the prison of religion. I went to pick her up in the out-pouring of the latter rain. But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck, (Restoration ministry) she got runned over by the glory train."

The interesting side of this is that the chorus to this song says, "You don't have to call me darlin, darlin. You never even called me by my name." The Lord said to me that He wanted me to not only to talk to Him intimately, but He wanted me to use His Name! In The Name of Jesus, I have authority!

In the past, trains have spoke of His provision and His glory; Isa 6:1 "In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple."

In one of Rick Joyner's recent interpretations, he said that a train can also be a pun and refer to us being trained, ie. educated, discipled, etc. Prov 22:6 "Train

up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." (NKJ)

~~~~~~~~~~~

DREAM: PROPHETS CHANGES TRAINS

Pastor Dale 8/28/97:

Today in church Mike shared his dream:

Mike’s Dream: A train had all men and one woman on it. The woman said, "It's time for me to get off," and she got on another train, which was a working train. The woman was dressed in coveralls and the men all said, "Goodbye Annie," as she went from one train to another. As she got on the train she got on her knees. The engine was "pushing" all the other cars.

Mike’s Possible Interpretation:

Woman = Church

Any moving vehicles usually = Ministry

Engine = Holy Spirit or authority

The woman I believe represents the "True Bride," she's not dressing up the outside of herself, she's plain looking on the outer and strong, busy, going about the Lord's work persistently on the inside. She hears His Voice and is following His directions.

Because the men called her Annie, at this time it appears the Lord is bringing forth His prophets into strong ministry. For Anna had prayed all of her life to see the Savior, and when Jesus was brought to the temple to be dedicated to God, she knew Him instantly. The prophets being brought forth today are truly the Lord's. He is speaking and they are answering their Father's call in this end day time of history.

The fact that the trains were filled with all men represents, I believe, the call God is sending out to His sons throughout the earth. When a man is walking closely with the Lord and Savior and being the spiritual strength God has called all men to be, the wives and the children will follow. The Lord is especially concerned about the lack of Fathers in the House in these last days. He is sending His love strongly out to His prodigal sons, wanting to prepare them for the Battle ahead.

By changing trains, the church is going from church as we've known it, which is really just tradition, to a working church. I believe this means the four walls of a building will no longer separate God's children from a lost and dying world. The Lord will be raising up many ministries within the four walls and once they're prepared, send them out to the lost to see with His eyes and feel with His heart. "Religion" will not be an issue in people's hearts much longer. The Great Commission, in its true meaning will be put into our hearts by our Lord Jesus with new passion, urgency and fresh awakening very soon!

The engine pushing the cars could mean the Holy Spirit is pushing the leaders of the true Bride of Christ to raise up many of God's people to reach their individual callings upon their lives, through true discipleship and encouragement. There is much to be done. The leaders need encouragement and direction and strengthening from the Lord so they can in turn shepherd wisely the flock that God has sent to them. A personal relationship with the Lord will be the sustaining strength for all of God's children in these last days. These will be the only vessels He will be able to use to accomplish His purposes in the perilous days that lie ahead for the nation and the world. Without the encouragement of the Holy Spirit to God's chosen anointed leaders and without the encouragement of the leaders to their flocks, these changes will lie stagnant. "Love and encouragement" always brings positive changes to God's people and to the lost and dying all around us; (especially to the precious lost ones!) God's true heart is coming forth in multitudes of His children today. Hallelujah! Praise His Glorious Name. What a glorious day in which we live!

~~~~~~~~~~~

PROPHETIC PARABLE

Pastor Dale 3/27/98:

Today when we arrived at the conference the moment we got out of the car and walked toward the building a train whistle blew four times. Throughout the time the trains came by and the whistle always blew four times. After a couple of days of this I decided to start noting at what points the train came. Tonight it was as follows:

· Train whistle blew as Bob Jones mentioned the breath of life - it blew four times.

· It blew again as the he said, "Cutting edge Christianity, not held back by religion." - It blew four times.

12] SANDY WARNER TRAIN RHEMA

FILLING THE TRAIN CARS & PEOPLE

Sandy Warner 1980’s:

VISION: Some time in the mid 80’s I saw a train with many empty box cars. It was from an aerial perspective where I could see into the cars from the top. As the train pulled forward, one car at a time, I had this huge hose thing like a gasoline pump hose, and filled each box car. Then the next scene I saw myself do the same thing to fill people.

~~~~~~~~~~~

ANTICIPATE TRAIN BLESSINGS

Sandy Warner 4/28/95:

Tonight as I was in bed, I rolled over on my tummy with my ear to the mattress. Then I heard the Lord say, "Put your head to the ground. A train. That's what I hear. Blessings."

~~~~~~~~~~~

FREEDOM TRAIN - THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD

Sandy Warner 6/1/95:

Today I rented a movie called Race to Freedom and it was the story of the Underground railroad. Before the Civil war, there were Christian's from Canada who traveled down to the southern states as "conductors" and secretly gathered people

who were interested in taking the journey north to freedom. As I watched this rewrite of history, I realized it was a prophetic parable right now being played out in the spirituals.

Basically the slaves were given instructions to follow the maps to Chicago. Along the

way, those who were secret, safe houses left a candle burning in their window at night. When the slave knocked on the door, he was to say, "A friend of a friend" Then the person answering was to say, "Friend of a friend." Then they knew it was safe. They were housed to sleep during the day, and travel at night via foot.

Once in Chicago, there was a lady they called "Moses" who was coordinating the movement. They placed people in coffins and they traveled 6 hours via coffin in a train then onto the Canadian border. It was a heroic journey for each person, as well as

for those who were willing to put their lives on the line to protect them. I thought it interesting that they had to travel by coffin the last leg of the journey. This represented death to self.

In Canada, they set up a liberty bell. Every time a slave crossed the border, they rang the bell for them. When I heard the bell ring I really sobbed. I knew this was the journey of many to come in their quest for freedom in the spirit. The end of the movie said there were 40,000 slaves who crossed the border to freedom prior to the civil war.

~~~~~~~~~~~

PROPHETIC PARABLE

Sandy Warner 8/19/95:

Today as we were driving in the country to find another trail, we went through a tiny little town. The railroad crossing had a light, so Wayne looked at the light and crossed over. Evidently it didn't work, because as we were in the middle of the tracks we both looked to our left, and there were 4 engines going full speed about 30' away. We were so startled there wasn't time to pray, but adrenaline sure pumped into both of us. After we crossed, then the train blew his whistle at us!

This is a parable that we need to look at, not only for the warning lights of the train coming, but look a bit farther for the actual train. If we are not hearing or seeing the signs of the times, (at the train crossing with warning lights) then we might get run over by His passing train as it comes through our smallest towns.

The other part of the parable that was quickened to me, was that we were crossing the tracks. We are now at a place in history, where we will soon cross over into new land. In the process, we may get run over by His passing glory train if we are not prepared and looking for it.

~~~~~~~~~~~

WINGS OF FAITH FOLLOWING THE TRAIN TRACKS

Sandy Warner 2/16/98:

I had a dream where I was flying in the air. I was flying above and parallel with a long straight train track cutting through the wilderness.

~~~~~~~~~~~

SHARE THE TRAIN RHEMA

Sandy Warner 9/13/98:

HEARD: Glory train. Keeper of the Words. Bring them out of hiding. Let them share, be aware. It’s free.

~~~~~~~~~~~

SUPERNATURAL TRAIN INSPITE OF CIRCUMSTANCES

Sandy Warner 9/18/98:

Today I heard the Lord say, "Storm." I said back to Him, "Lord all this stuff about survival, what about Your glory train coming?"

VISION: A train going off Rick Joyner’s cliff.

Insert Sandy Comment: Rick Joyner’s cliff is a vision he had. At the end of the cliff, there was a sudden drop off. People who were prepared had to crawl on their hands and knees to get to the bottom safely, some were so prepared that they took off in parachutes. Most were not prepared and were badly wounded at the bottom. The following is a quote from his lengthy vision, taken from 1996 The Morning Star, Volume 6, No 2: Titled, "A Field of Dreams or Nightmares?"

"Several years ago, while I was praying about the future of our economy, I was given a vision of a long, lush, green field. I felt that this represented a long period of economic prosperity, which has generally been the case since that time. While praying in August of 1995, I saw this field in a vision again, but with much more detail. The end of the field was covered in fog. Not far into the fog there was a very steep cliff. In the middle of the cliff there was a narrow, twisting, steep path that appeared like a descending bridge. It had the same green grass on it that the field did, and went all the way to the bottom."

[end quote]

Sandy’s Vision continued: As I saw the train starting to go off the prophetical cliff, it kept going as it approached the cliff, and traveled on into the sky as though there were invisible tracks in place. I was surprised to see it traveling in mid air on invisible tracks. I then said, "Lord, let’s back that up again. What happens if you don’t have the faith to fly and the train goes over?" In my own mind I pretended to back up the train onto the cliff and then forward again to go over the cliff. Just as the back wheels left the cliff and it turned nose down, the Lord interrupted my day dream! I suddenly saw another vision of a huge hand grabbing the tail of the train, as though it was a toy train with a mouse tail. The train was dangling there and being held by this huge hand! I understood the Lord was saying, "Even if you don’t have faith, I’ll catch you and you won’t fall!" He is so gracious.

~~~~~~~~~~~

TARRY UNTIL YOU ARE ENDUED WITH POWER

Sandy Warner 7/22/99:

Tonight while I am at a Mahesh conference, I turned with "anointed hands" in my Bible to: Tarry until you are endued with power. Coming with power.

VISION: Then I saw a vision of a series of dominoes flashing in front of my eyes. They went in succession from 4, 3, 2. I knew it was a countdown to one more day before something special occurred. I was hoping that is was His promised enduement! I have been waiting for many months for this gift.

HEARD: My daughter. Gloooooory service. (I heard His still small voice say it like that, and this was very funny!) You don’t know about this. You will. Supernatural. What was that? That was rumbling.

[He is referring to the fact that as Mahesh said, "Get ready to feel the rumble of the train!" At that exact moment, I literally felt very strong vibrations under my tennis shoes. I was struck by His Spirit and I could literally feel the rumble through my feet. The vibrations entered my feet, traveled up my legs, to my stomach and I immediately erupted into radical shaking. I was shaking like a leaf all over! It was a powerful experience!]

HEARD: I continued to hear the Lord say: The enemy is scared, terrified.

I need you. Daughter. My people. I baptize you. Baptizer. March 11. The train.

Shoot the enemy.

And then I saw you. Baptizer. Holy Spirit. Fire. Forerunner. Are you willing to be a sign?

When I got home from the conference, I looked up March 11 in our rhema data base and found the following insert given to Grandma Anna:

EXCERPT FROM MARCH 11

Grandma Anna 3/11/92

HEARD: Know one knows it yet. Side seats bless the house. Still waiting.

As the new baby began to sing, the words began tightening. Who is she I cried? The child of a king who is a king.

Stay awake little one. Your time is come. Instructions will come. Be ready little one. (I heard a train whistle)

WORD STUDY ON ENDUED WITH POWER

Luke 24:49

And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued [1746] with power [1411] from on high.

NT:1746

enduo (en-doo'-o); from NT:1722 and NT:1416 (in the sense of sinking into a garment); to invest with clothing (literally or figuratively):

KJV-array, clothe (with), endue, have (put) on.

NT:1411

dunamis (doo'-nam-is); from NT:1410; force (literally or figuratively); specially, miraculous power (usually by implication, a miracle itself):

KJV-ability, abundance, meaning, might (-ily, -y, -y deed), (worker of) miracle (-s), power, strength, violence, mighty (wonderful) work.

SANDY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I believe that the Lord is saying that part of the coming glory train is a new filling, a new enduement of power to be released. He will use people to impart this power, since I saw myself with a hose filling the train cars, then people.

~~~~~~~~~~~

RIDING THE TRAIN, FIGHTING THROUGH THE RESISTANCE

Wayne Warner 9/19/99:

DREAM: Wayne and others were riding outside upon the box cars of the train. It was on its way to heaven and they needed to fight their way through the resistance of enemies.

~~~~~~~~~~~

13] SHIRLEY’S TRAIN RHEMA

WHEN THE TRAIN COMES, SEIZE THE MOMENT

Shirley Rhema 6/4/93:

HEARD: Get on board. The glory train. Time to leave. The valley of decision. The hour is late. The time is come. Seize the moment.

SAW: I saw a circle of light. In the center was a star outline. From the points, rays of light went forth as far as I could see.

~~~~~~~~~~~

TRAIN LEAVES AT 9:00

Shirley Rhema 4/8/95:

HEARD: Among the winners. Great day. No sweat. Keep up the pace.

Give a little whistle;

Once at the end of time.

All aboard,

Train leaves at nine.

A day of new beginnings;

Water balloons for everyone.

~~~~~~~~~~~

A TRAIN WHISTLE

Shirley Rhema 9/23/98:

HEARD: It's raining.

VISION: Rain drops and every place they fell a white flower opened up.

HEARD: It couldn't be helped. Over time. A train whistle. (I actually heard this).

Take My hand. We will go together.

Shirley Comment: Trains sound their whistle as a warning before they reach a

crossing, and entering a town, or city. Once before on 10/6/95 I actually heard a

train whistle in the night.

15] PROPHESY OF THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD

[Note from Sandy: When I posted "All Aboard the Glory Train," I received an email from a lady who directed me to her site. The following is an excerpt of her prophesy, containing information about the underground railroad. Her prophesy is lengthy and I clipped the portions as related to this train file, with her permission. I thought it interesting that the Lord imparted to her the similar revelation about the glory train connecting with the story of the Freedom train of slaves going to Canada.

GOD'S UNDERGROUND RAILROAD
Prophetic Word by Alana Campbell

"People get ready---there's a train a comin--you don't need no ticket you just get on board. All you need is faith to see the train a comin--you don't need no ticket...you just thank the Lord."

______________________________________________

HE'S THE "CONDUCTOR" ON THIS TRAIN:

I am the "Conductor" on this train, says the Lord--- and yes, some have called My train an "underground railroad," and there are certainly some parallels that can be drawn. For the religious system of your day has brought many into bondage---even those who had once escaped, and have I not warned you to "be not entangled again with a yoke of bondage?" And there are those with vast holdings---the land owners as it were---and under their domain, My own have been merchandised and made to labor for the wages of a slave and not a free man. For there is barely enough to eat. And every day they dream of freedom---freedom...Freedom, but how. Freedom but when? As surely as I live says the Lord God, I have come to set at liberty them that are chained, them that are bound---that are bruised, and nothing shall stop Me for I have heard the cries and the sighs of those in bondage---a cry and a sigh that has come up before Me as a mighty surge of prayer that has shaken the heavens, and now I shall shake not only the heavens, but earth also as My Spirit cries: LET MY PEOPLE GO! LET MY PEOPLE GO! Do you have any rivers you think are uncrossable? Got any mountains you can't tunnel through? I specialize in things thought impossible and I can do what nobody else can do.

YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE ME RAISE UP "STATIONS" ALL ACROSS THIS LAND:

You are about to see Me raise up "stations" as it were all across this land and they shall not be as the religious old wine-skins, but these shall be places where the life of My Spirit can flow and where I can bring those with desperate needs and know for certain that they will not be passed over for My "station masters" shall be kind and filled with compassion. Indeed they shall be perceptive and not judge by the sight of their eyes or reprove after the hearing of their ears. For I shall instruct them in the things of My Spirit and they shall be very adept at caring for those I send to them.

THE CAPTIVE EXILE HASTENS TO BE LOOSED:

And yes, they shall be hunted, and even hated by those "slave owners" who have not let go of their claim so willingly. But you must be prepared to deal with this My own. But it is written: The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the meek: He has sent Me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives---and the opening of the prison to them that are bound. The captive exile hastens that he may be loosed and that he should not die in the pit...I am the Lord YOUR God, that divided the sea those waves roared: The Lord of Hosts is His name. I put My words in your mouth and I have covered you in the shadow of My hand that I may plant the heavens and lay the foundations of the earth and say to Zion: You are My people. Is. 51:14-16

I WILL UNDO YOUR RELIGIOUS OBSERVANCES:

I will "undo" your religious observances, (which have hindered the moving of My Spirit) that those who name My name will effectively set the captives free. (2 Tim. 3:5) And as with the emancipation of your nation, do not be surprised when you see My Spirit set apart many women as well as men for the work of the ministry. For they shall "conduct" many into the liberty of My Spirit---into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

EXCERPTS FROM COMMENTS MADE BY ALANA CAMPBELL:

A black ex-slave, a God-fearing woman named Harriet Tubman helped 300 slaves escape from slavery in the south into the north and into Canada, and she was totally led by God's Spirit. Before the Civil War, slaves escaped from plantations by means of an "underground railroad." These were a chain of homes where they could get food, clothes, money for the journey.

The book Exodus II by Steve Lightle, speaks of an exodus of this sort out of Russia. God has been preparing the hearts of Christians in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, and Poland to be an "underground railroad" of just this sort. In dreams and visions they've been told by God to prepare! This prophecy speaks to more than one kind of people. But especially those to whom God wants to bring a "religious emancipation." Why? Because Jesus came to set at liberty those that are bound.

This prophecy is also a specific prophetic promise to those who know God or who want so much to know God, but for one reason or another, they are not free in Jesus, or they are struggling with doctrinal issues that have been taught them and they don't seem to line up with scripture. You are scared to talk to anybody you know, because you don't want them to think you don't love God. Am I saying you need to go to Canada, (or specifically Toronto) to get "a blessing?" No. God will meet you right where you live. But if He tells you to go to a certain church, or a brother or sister in the Lord, like He told Ananias to go to a certain house of a man named Judas who lived on a street called Straight St., and to pray for brother Saul from Tarsus, then you'd better go. Because God always has a reason and being led of the Lord is the only life of blessing.

These stations I saw were house churches, because God is raising up hundreds and thousands of them---but many people will find their needs met in larger churches. We are not prejudice against any type of Church so long as God has a freedom to move there, so people's needs can be met and their lives healed and restored.

16] DREAM: HEALING TRAIN FROM CANADA TO PACIFIC NORTHWEST

From: Jim Paul jimpaul@globalserve.net

A 1995 DREAM ABOUT A TRAIN COMING TO HAMILTON , ON

The dream was fulfilled to the most unbelievable detail. As a result, we have sought God for added insight about a train encounter at the end of the dream.

At the end of this dream she saw a powerful steam train moving out through a vast field of grain. It was clearly a time of Harvest. The light on the engine was very bright. Dianne actually hid herself from this powerful train as it approached. It was a fearful, awesome experience as it descended what looked like the Niagara Escarpment on the outskirts of the city of Hamilton, Ontario. This all took place what looked to be about Christmas time.

We began to understand this dream after Bobby Connor received the Jan.8,1997 vision about the Gold & Diamond Train. One portion of the vision describes a Signs & Wonders movement that will begin near the city of Hamilton, On. (See <www.bobbyconnor.com> )

AN ARMY OF HEALERS WILL BE RELEASED

Some months ago, during our Monday Pastors Day-off, my wife & I went for a country drive. I headed west out of the city of Hamilton on my way to Lake Huron. Dianne had fallen asleep in the car. It was just me and the Lord. He began to speak to Me in a near audible voice.

"Son take note of that highway sign you just past". It was a sign for Ingersol, a town some 50 miles away. Again a little further down the road He spoke again.

"Son, take note of this sign you are now passing". It was a sign for St.Mary's, a town some 60 miles away from the city of Hamilton. After passing the second sign the Lord explained the importance of these two signs.

"Son, a great woman, Amy Semple Macpherson , with a great gift of miracle healing was born in Ingersol, Ontario, on the west side the city of Hamilton. Also a great man John G. Lake, with a great gift of miracle healing was born in St.Mary's on the west side of Hamilton."

A miracle healing movement would descend upon this region and then begin marching to the west and around the world. This army is unstoppable. The noise of their feet was like a stream train, pounding out it's approach.

The Lord said to me "I will again birth the John G. Lake miracle healing ministry near the city of Hamilton and let it mature in the North West, where John G. Lake finished his ministry. This is Holy Ground to Me. I always finish what I begin." (Phil1:6)

Hi Sandy,

I just wanted to let you know, my husband and I ministered outside of Birmingham, Al this past weekend and we experienced the sound of the glory train coming. Brian preached on Friday and I preached on Sunday and both times in worship, just before we preached, a train went by outside, shaking the ground. Both times we were singing about the glory, so we knew what it was. We shared with the congregation God's glory train is coming!

God bless,

18] DREAM - THE SPEEDING TRAIN THROUGH OREGON

Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 02:38:02 -0800

From: "Marc Sanchez" prophetic_voice@angelfire.com

The scenery was very familiar to me, and I realized that this train was blazing across Oregon, from the East to the West. This train would cross the state in a very short period of time.

Then I awoke. Here is the interpretation:

The train is a powerful move of God, the likes of which we have never seen. When it hits, no person will be able to stand under their own power. The old abandoned towns are personal ministries that people have left and let die {John 12:24}. The bulldozed parcels of land are the hearts of people who have scraped away all the old works of the flesh, and have a firm foundation on which to build {1Cor 3:11;Eph 2:20} new, Godly works. The rails on which this train were running were supported by onorthodox methods, nevertheless, they were wood, just like the old railroad ties, and just as capable of supporting the rails and the train. The different kinds of wood are different kinds of people, whereas in the past, the rails had rested on pieces of wood that all looked basically the same, now they rested on varying types. Just like moves of God in times past, when the leaders of these moves {and Godly leaders they were!} were mostly men, and some women, they were all pretty much the same. This time, the people that God uses to facilitate this move will be of all different types. Men, Women, Teens, and Children! They will be of all denominations and of all levels of maturity in Christ. There will be no doubt that it is a move of GOD!

It will be in an "unorthodox" manner. Much like the moves of God in the mid-to-late 90's {i.e. Toronto, Brownsville, Smithton, etc} which at the time seemed to be very onorthodox {to say the least!}...This move will be even more unorthodox, yet without violating the Word of God, or His nature and character. It will be God! Though all will acknowledge the "Different-ness" of this move, all {almost all, there will always be the naysayers and tongue waggers} will agree that it is God!

One more thing...This move of God is coming very quickly, it will blow through here like a bullet train.

Get ready Church! God is on the move in a way you and I have never seen!

Praise the Lord!!

Sincerely His-

Marc Sanchez 2Cor 13:14<><

20] DREAM - A POWERFUL HEALING TRAIN COMING

Date: 12/27/99

From Jim Paul jimpaul@globalserve.net

(Posted from NW Revival News)

AN END-TIME TRAIN OF HEALING IS RISING FROM THE EAST - JIM PAUL - EAST GATE FELLOWSHIP, HAMILTON, ON A 1995 DREAM ABOUT A TRAIN COMING TO HAMILTON , ONTARIO

This word about an end-time train of Signs & Wonders & Healing has been slowly growing in both my wife Dianne & I for some time. In 1995 my wife was warned about the coming removal of our home church - Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship from the Vineyard Movement in a vivid dream. The dream was fulfilled to the most unbelievable detail. As a result, we have sought God for added insight about a train encounter at the end of the dream.

AN ARMY OF HEALERS WILL BE RELEASED:

"Son take note of that highway sign you just past". It was a sign for Ingersol, a town some 50 miles away. Again a little further down the road He spoke again.

"Son, take note of this sign you are now passing". It was a sign for St. Mary's, a town some 60 miles away from the city of Hamilton. After passing the second sign the Lord explained the importance of these two signs.

Right there before my eyes a vast army of women & men rose upon the land and began marching toward the city. I knew then that what had been birthed near this lowly city of Hamilton was about to be re-birthed. A miracle healing movement would descend upon this region and then begin marching to the west and around the world. This army is unstoppable. The noise of their feet was like a stream train, pounding out it's approach.

21] TRAIN EXPERIENCE WHILE CREATING A WORSHIP CD

Date: 12/28/99 11:49:16 AM Pacific Standard Time

From: soundofharvest@juno.com (Lewis W Crownover)

Website: http://members.spree.com/soundharvest/

[Note from Sandy; Lewis cut a live worship CD at our Mahesh conference. The conference was very powerful with the Lord’s manifest Presence. The CD will be available this spring. Check his above website for details.]

Sandy,

There was an interesting "train" connection involved in the post-production work on our CD. I had completely forgotten about all the train references while I was back in Kansas City working on the worship recording with Kevin Prosch. Here's what happened:

We were working on a song entitled, "Come On Angels." I had to re-record the acoustic guitar part, and we had already done some digital fixes to the main vocal part. We had begun to concentrate on the ending, which was an element of the song which I had believed would be very important, ever since I got the inspiration for it.

The last stanza of the song goes like this: "Mighty Father, let us meet. Take Your throne on the mercy seat. Rend the heavens, shake the ground. As Your glory falls, let us hear the sound." At that point in the song, I had envisioned a swell of heavenly sounds erupting from all the instruments and the voices of the worshippers. During our Mahesh conference, there actually was a unique wave of the Spirit that traveled through the room at that point (the audible part is actually on our recording). However, we were not able to release the instruments to quite the degree I had envisioned. So when I shared the vision with Kevin, he readily picked up on the flow, and we began filling in the missing elements in the studio.

It was a totally anointed time. I recall actually falling out of my chair at one point -- the power of God and His Spirit of creativity so prevalent in the studio. Kevin had an idea, and grabbed some tiny little bells from his vast cache of musical wonders. He sent me into the next room, instructing me how to hold the bells just so -- and setting up the recording levels at the console. He peeked in one time, saying, "shake them a little harder," and then he stepped in and joined me.

The light was fading in the basement room as we stood there facing each other, shaking these strands of little bells. The Presence of God was so incredible there! I was almost overcome in the Spirit as the awesome sound of these bells filled the room. I knew I had to restrain myself from shouting -- we were recording bells, after all. There we stood in this wonderful time, and suddenly we heard something totally different. I strained to hear, I looked at Kevin, who had already perceived it. As it grew louder, I felt deep concern -- an odd noise from outside could ruin the recording. As I listened and watched, I saw Kevin's face light up with joy and surprise. I then saw him silently mouth the word "Train!" and he broke into a full smile. What we were hearing was a train rolling by in the distance, sounding its multi-toned horn. He obviously thought this was not an interruption, but an enhancement! We laughed together silently as the sound faded into the distance. Kevin gave the signal, and we headed back into the control room. The train sound was captured on the tape, and we did nothing to erase it. It is now a barely-audible part of that incredible ending.

As I shared the story with Rose, and others, I was reminded of Mahesh's vision of the Glory Train at the conference. We were elated at how this all fit together so amazingly. Isn't He too much?

For your encouragement...

Love and blessings,

Lewis

22] VISION: TRAIN INCLUDES TRAINING & TEAMWORK

Date: 12/28/99 2:23:08 PM Pacific Standard Time

From: swmorris@herald.infi.net (Stephen W. Morris)

Vision

December 4, 1997

Revelation:

I was looking at an aerial view of a train. It was going up the mountains and down into the valleys. It was fast, quiet and just kept on going at the same speed, regardless of some of the steep mountains. The surrounding countryside was absolutely gorgeous. Differing trees and plants, with different textures, colors and sizes.

The Lord quickly identified the two railroad tracks – one was called Truth and the other was called Righteousness. Then He said He had given us the earth and the fullness thereof.

Then the scene changed. The train became a trolley car. The surrounding countryside was replaced with a small, rustic town, complete with old beautiful buildings and sidewalks and outdoor cafes and parks. The Lord said that He had given us all of this to enjoy, not to fear. The trolley car became a horse-drawn carriage. The countryside was beautiful, rolling, multi-colored, richly splattered with variety and color and shadings. Yet while seeing the trolley car and the horse-drawn carriage, I never lost sight of the train. I knew they were manifestations of the same thing.

I could see the train relentlessly speeding on, the landscape constantly changing. Green covered mountains were replaced with snow-covered caps. Ice and snow starkly contrasted the rocks and the waterfalls and streams. Never before have I ever seen the earth displayed so beautifully, so fully. It created a desire in me to see more and more. And to be dazzled and stunned by the glory of all that God has created for us.

Then the Lord told me the engine in the train was called Justice. The tracks, you remember, were called Truth and Righteousness. The engine Justice. Then He said the railroad ties were laid line upon line, precept upon precept and were laid upon the foundation of the Word.

He was constantly reminding me that He had given us dominion over the earth and that we were to enjoy everything He had created for us. On and on the train sped. It never slowed down and never stopped. It seemed to be running extremely efficiently and knew what it had to do. Mountaintops, blue skies, white clouds, green foliage and trees waving slightly in the breeze. Gold and red tones of autumn, ice and snow of winter. The train sped on. And on and on. Never slowing, never stopping. The Lord said He has given us everything we need to enjoy the beauty and variety and richness of all the earth. We are not to deny ourselves from enjoying that which He has given to us. He continued to urge us to forget our fears and instead to begin to appreciate the richness of what He has provided us with. And the train just kept speeding on.

Interpretation:

The centerpiece of this vision is the train and different manifestations such as a trolley car and a horse-drawn carriage. The constant forward motion of the train–fast, efficient and purposeful– is the next main factor in the vision. The accentuated beauty of the earth and the desirability to see more of it follows that.

The train is symbolic of training, with many different groups all coupled together in a single purpose. It is driven by God's Justice based on His Truth and Righteousness, along a way that has been prepared line upon line and precept upon precept taken from His Word, which is the foundation beneath the train and the tracks.

God is saying that His Justice (which is the use of authority and power to uphold what is good), guided by His Truth and Righteousness, which has been learned by His church, line upon line, precept upon precept, is going over all the earth. It is being taught by many different groups, who although not connected in the natural, are connected by a common purpose in the supernatural.

God is jealous for His earth. He created it for us and is distressed that it is being torn apart and scorned. He wants us to realize that His Justice is going over all the earth, by His Truth and Righteousness.

Application:

We are to be aware of this and consciously "get on the train."

It also re-emphasized that the day of the single "star" mentality, or the "Lone Ranger" ministerial syndrome is no more. Teams, groups and commonality in purpose is important because that's a prelude to true spiritual unity.

It's also a reminder to take time out to "smell the roses" along the way. And to learn to appreciate all that God has already given us. If we don't really appreciate God's handiwork of our created earth, what will we think of the new version when He burns this one up? And where His Justice will shine in its fullest glory?

You are not a lonely stranger waiting for a slow train somewhere. No, you belong with a team, with a group and a train that's waiting for you.

There are many such. A tremendous variety. Multi-cultural, multi-racial, all over the world. Waiting for you. Will you get aboard?

23] PROPHETIC INTERCESSOR MIMICS TRAIN

From: bgrogan@northernnet.com (bgrogan)

Several years ago my wife, who is normally a quite timid person, was moved upon by the Holy Spirit and began to act just like a train coming down the tracks, making train sounds and moving her legs and feet as if she were a train. This is completely out of character for my wife and the word we felt the Lord was saying was; "The glory train is coming down the tracks and you had better get on board

Hi Sandy,

Blessings to you this holiday season. After reading the train dream I felt I should share with you a dream my 9 year old son Joshua had. In the dream he was in a desert with blue sand and an orange sky. A train was sitting on the track standing still, with many frightened people on board. Demons were jumping around the train. Then my son came into the scene and the demons left. The sky changed to red and the people's faces changed to joy. The train began to move and then headed toward a very bright light.

In Him,

25] SONG WRITER RECEIVES INSPIRATION FOR A TRAIN SONG

Date: 12/29/99 10:09:45 PM Pacific Standard Time

From: Rick Dupea

Hi Sandy-

My wife Stephanie has written to you before, and we both read and appreciate your regular email postings. Thank you! All of the recent words on the glory train bring up a personal story which I think has prophetic significance at this time. Steph and I are artists/intercessors with a prophetic emphasis, and have lived in the Northwest all our lives (in Tacoma since 1979).

On September 7th of 1992 my wife and I were packing the car for a trip to Mt. Rainier with the kids when the first four lines of the following song popped into my head as a whole piece. I have written literally hundreds of songs, and it is very rare for something to appear as wholecloth like this. Besides, it was so outright weird that I immediately felt that it must have some prophetic significance. My first reaction was "I've got to finish this song and find out what it means!" Over the next three days it came together very quickly (compared to my usual speed).

I have my own interpretation of what it means, but I believe that God puts more in to any prophecy than the initial hearer understands. I'll save my comments for the end and let you read it fresh.

=====================================

Edinburgh Station

By Rick V. Dupea

9/7/92 - 9/10/92

Standing at the Edinburgh Station

the 9:02 rolled out of the fog

when Someone called my name

and I knew it was the Angel of God

He said, "Son, let’s take a look at the future

I’ll show you how it’s going to be."

Then He gave his hand

and He said, "Now, stay close to Me."

‘Cause we’re gonna ride this line ‘til the morning comes

we’re gonna ride this line into the dawn.

Then we were flying over the heather and moorlands

the silver rails were right at my feet

they stretched to the horizon

where I saw earth and heaven meet

and just as we arrived at the crossing

I saw the glory fall from the sky

and when it touched the train

well, the entire thing just started to fly

And we’re gonna ride this line ‘til the morning comes

we’re gonna ride this line into the dawn

Then I saw the heavens open - He let me take a peek

and even if I found the words, there’re things I've heard

that man is not allowed to speak

I saw His touch on every moment to and from eternity

and I didn’t know if I’d been there

inside for an hour or a week

…found myself back at the station

the 9:02 was pulling away

So I sang out to the porter

"Man, you better board this train"

Now we’re gliding through the middle of nowhere

I couldn’t tell you how far we’ve come

but if we keep on riding

I know just where I’ll be when we’re done

And I’m gonna ride this line ‘til the morning comes

I’m gonna ride this line

into the dawn

standing…

standing at the Edinburgh Station

============================================

Rick’s notes:

The entire song has the feel (to me) of a vicarious vision - as if I'm reliving someone else's vision. It would be a great artistic gimmick if I had thought of it, but the song just happened that way. I'm not sure what [if any] significance Edinburgh has, beyond my immigrant family roots in 1800s Scotland and Ireland. I've always wanted to learn more about that locale and its spiritual significance.

It starts out pretty clearly as a call from God to listen and follow him in a new direction. One significance about rails that strikes me now is that their course is laid out in advance and can't be deviated from. God has planned this, and the train is on schedule. (Is 9:02 a pun on 90+2, the year it was written?) The key to the ride appears to be intimate steady contact with the Lord - holding hands and staying close to him. "Gave his hand" is a reference to marriage, and could also refer to his wounds, which made our intimacy with God possible. (A note on songwriting: I often try to work in all these subtle references and allusions, but in this song, almost everything came of itself, though I did pick and chose from optional lines as I wrote. I began to see the significance of individual words and phrases long after the song was finished, though I had a continual sense that this song was more prophetic than most.)

"The morning" and "the dawn' makes me think of the coming of the great and terrible day of the Lord, his return, and the coming of his kingdom on earth as it is in heaven, as the church has prayed for nearly 2000 years. Or it could mean entering into a new spiritual domain of obedience and blessing.

In the second verse my perspective changed and I was actually airborne, holding the Angel's hands and flying ahead of the train… like Scrooge and the Spirit of Christmas Past. We're out in the country - an unknown location in rolling hills, with a golden-red sun just ready to appear over the horizon, and the rails whizzing beneath us silver against the dark ground.

This is the part that always makes me weep when I sing this song: "they stretched to the horizon, where I saw earth and heaven meet." There is something there beyond logic or poetry which tugs at my heart: the infinite touching the finite; the hope of glory; Christ in us, Emmanuel.

and just as we arrived at the crossing

I saw the glory fall from the sky

and when it touched the train

well, the entire thing just started to fly

The Cross inserted itself into my song without invitation or apology. Honest - I didn't see the obvious until later. We were damned, until the mercy of God on the cross made the hope of glory real. And with it came the supernatural - unexpected, unasked for, unplanned, but magical and wonderful. I initially took this song as a prophecy for my own life, but now I think that God is saying that the entire church is going to start flying soon. Like in the first verse, the touch of God brings flight - whether to the individual or the corporate (I am just now seeing this parallel for the first time as I write.)

"Then I saw the heavens open"

This middle section (which has very different music to it) means almost nothing to me! I certainly didn't have this experience, and it has no personal significance, unlike the preceding verse. I assume it has a meaning beyond myself. I do notice that the concept of "his touch" appears again, now expanded beyond the corporate to the entirety of creation. And there is just a taste of eternity, where time is irrelevant in comparison to the Presence of God, like a lingering aftertaste of something too wonderful for words, even for our thought, to contain.

"the 9:02 was pulling away": This is a limited time offer! Call now! Operators are standing by!

The porter makes me think of the church, getting the lost on the train, but it could be the prophets getting the church in general on. There were still a lot of people in 1800s garb (dark overcoats and long dresses and luggage carts) milling around on the platform as the first chuffs of steam began turning the wheels. There was a general air of unconcern from the people outside the train, and from the porter, as I leaned out of the doorway to shout at him. (I often write the lyrics to match the images in my head, other times the words come first and the images follow. This song had both.)

The last stanza comes from an experience I had as a teenager, when I took a fatherless kid from my church up to Mt. Rainier for the day to play in the snow. He'd never been to "Mount Reindeer" before. (Hmm - reindeer fly to bring gifts from a saint... no, that's stretching it too far!) That evening, driving back through the forested foothills, he asked me where we were. It was late, dark, and unfamiliar territory, and I really didn't know where we were. But I knew we were on the right road, headed the right way, and I knew that this road would take us home.

Well, there you have it. God is putting the church on a new track for a rendezvous with His glory. Each time I read one of the glory train posts I think of the song, so I finally decided to share a bit with you, and also to write out the story for my own records. Hope this blesses you-

26] TRAIN CARS LINK THE CALLED & CHOSEN

Date: 12/31/99 9:30:13 AM Pacific Standard Time

From: patrickhope@altavista.com (patrick hope)

I submit the following given me by the Lord about 2-1/2 years ago. It has similarities to revelations others are having about trains. It was given me as I ministered to someone who, with his wife, were going into the ministry, without benefit of being called I suspect. This was my second revelation involving a train. The first was a vision of the Lord and myself taking a trip in a boxcar around the borders of America with Him explaining to me things to come.

THE SPEEDING TRAIN

I was standing next to railroad tracks somewhere in the mountains. It was nighttime. I could make out rock cliffwalls on both sides of the tracks. It appeared I was next to tracks that cut through a mountain. I was at the high point of an incline, the tracks falling away to both sides of me.

I heard a sound of a train to my left. Almost as soon as I turned toward the sound a train emerged from around a bend or out of a tunnel, I couldn't tell which because of the dark and its blinding light. All I recall is it was on me in no time. I was standing close to the tracks, too close, and as the train roared past at breakneck speed I felt its wind and the quaking of the ground. It's immense size, it's suddenness and closeness, and the tremendous power I felt left me shaken to my core.

The train was made up of a powerful engine and all manner of railroad cars; boxcars, flatbeds, carriers, tank cars, passengers and Pullmans, all whizzing by at an incredible clip. Then it was gone, disappearing down and around a bend to my right.

After the last vestiges of its roar had died away I stood there shaking. Then along came a push/pull rail-cart with two people on it furiously pumping away trying to catch the speeding train. The couple was working very hard, but no amount of effort could develop the speed necessary for that little cart to catch that mighty train. Working against them also was the incline of the tracks, they were trying to go uphill. The cart seemed pitifully slow compared to the speeding train, now long gone.

God told me that the train represented this present move of the Holy Spirit. The various cars represent key people He has selected to be part of this movement; evangelists, pastors, praise leaders, intercessors, people with healing gifts, so on. All are being linked together by God Himself for the express purpose of working this powerful and unstoppable move of the Holy Spirit. And it is God who empowers and leads them, He is the engine. The push/pull couple represents those who, though not called to such roles, nevertheless attempt to attach themselves as leaders.

The Lord blesses whom He will bless. I was reminded of the old adage, `some are called, some are sent, some just got up and went'.

27] DREAMS: WARNING, SLANDER DERAILS THE TRAIN

Date: 12/29/99 7:16:46 AM Pacific Standard Time

From: bobrussell4@juno.com

Sandy,

I was asked to chair our church’s "long range plan" committee. During this time, I had similar dreams- I saw our church as both a highway with cars on it, and a train track. In our particular case, we had a growing division in our church which I won't go in to. But, I saw a model train track set up in our sanctuary where the pulpit usually stands. It rested on the ground- there was nothing on the tracks- I knew in my spirit from other things the Lord had shown me that the tracks needed to be raised up off the ground on supports. These supports I asked about, they were called "worship"....

I saw in another dream how a specific attack on our church was aimed directly at the supports that keep the roadway supported above the earth. The enemy was firing round after round at the supports until they began to break and the raised highway began to tilt--these supports were called "worship". And in this case, the enemy shooting and doing the damage was named "slander".

I saw the supports also as burners that came from the altar.

I believe the Lord is saying to us that it is worship that keeps His Church off of the earth and in the heavens. And that many of the attacks against us we wrongfully think are aimed at people- while in some cases this may be true, the ultimate goal of the enemy is to destroy true worship- to keep the Church "on the earth" and out of the heavenly

places.

28] VISION: A TRAIN OF SALVATION FOR THE JEWS

The Train Of Salvation

I fell asleep feeling concerned for my brethren in the flesh, the Jews, in respect to the coming international persecution that is soon to be released against them. I want very much to see an army of Christians be ready to reach out to them in this horrible, satanically orchestrated holocaust. Further, I want to see as many as possible come into the Kingdom at this time. All this was on my mind as I prayed. When I finally fell asleep, I had a most wonderful dream. I would like to share it with you as it wonderfully depicts our Father's heart for His ancient people.

In the dream, I was inviting Jews from all over Europe to Alliah, (return home to Yisrael Israel). I would tell them we already had passage prepared. This hidden method would be secure even in the most severe time of this intense worldwide persecution.

While speaking these things in Europe, a person came up to me and said: "Follow me and I will show you what has been prepared for those who follow your call." I immediately ceased my conversation with those who were in front of me and followed my new guide.

I was led to a hidden train station. I was surprised to see what was in front of me for it looked like an elaborate and carefully thought out means of escape. It wasn't simply a getaway. It was superior in every way, from the beautiful woodwork, to the elegant decorating, to the superb technical advancement and care given to every detail. For instance, the various boarding gates were dark oak wooden counters. On these counters sat the buttons that operated the large oak doors through which the passengers entered the train, and the little computer windows wherein would appear all the pertinent information regarding the schedules. Upon each one of these counters I saw what appeared to be a living red rose implanted into the wood. A single red rose in particular means, I love you!

The trains themselves were plush beyond words. The woodwork was all dark oak, and the seats were large, plush and beautifully tailored. It seemed as though anything a person would need while on board would be at their fingertips. The service buttons were fixed in highly polished brass on the arm of each chair. Encased in the oak wood at the end of the brass control panel on the arm of the chair, was a lovely living red rose. It was put there as though to say, you're welcome here, and you are special to me.

Each person had their own special seating in the dining room for meals, and their own luxury bunk in which to sleep for long trips. Each table, each seat, each bunk was accented with a living red rose implanted handsomely in a conspicuous place. Jews, both rich and poor, were treated without partiality. Each one was treated as though he or she was royalty.

My guide and I boarded the train together to see its remarkable features. As my tour came to an end, I was invited to take the next trip with the incoming passengers. I gladly accepted.

Shortly after the train left the station; it embarked down a secret underground passageway, on which it couldn't possibly be detected. It was upon this private railway that the trains would travel until they reached their destination. As we traveled, my guide eagerly explained each and every detail of the preparation for each guest and the trip to me. I was in wonder at the loving attention given to every detail to make it as pleasant and secure as possible. No expense was spared in any way. Concerning the roses, I was told that they are meant to be constant reminders of the Fathers great love for His people, each and every one individually. Further, I was informed that the train I was on was simply one of many that left from different origination points every hour to insure that every Jew who wanted His protection would have it. Further, I was informed that regardless of how widespread and critical the holocaust would become, that the hidden railway could never be discovered. Consequently, every Jew would be assured of making Alliah when once they were aboard.

I saw upon our arrival at our destination that a glorious nation was being built. Houses, condominiums, stores, churches and so on were rapidly being erected in amazing quality to meet the need of every newcomer. While guest were waiting for their home to be finished they were offered comfortable lodging in holding-houses that were very lovely and were shared in common with others for the brief season of transition. Every need was met. Each one that desired it was given a job as soon as they entered into the city. Education was available to all. The education would help them to easily adapt to the new life and enable them to make the utmost of their new destiny.

My guide led me out to discover the great land that lay at our feet. I was told: "This is their land! None can take it from them." I was shown the land of Judah, Joseph, Rueben, Asher, and so on. Everywhere I looked construction was going on to handle the great influx of people. There was so much intricate preparation going on for the large numbers of coming Jews that everyone had something to do when they arrived. After a while, my guide looked at me and with tender compassion, instructed: "These people have spent generation upon generation fighting for land all over the world that could never possibly be theirs. Many at the cost of their own life. As they come here they will learn that none can take this land of promise from them, as the land is in their hearts, and is given to them out of the Father's great love. They will never again want for anything ' Now return and tell them all that you saw, for time is very short."

As I awoke, I pondered all that I saw and heard with such great joy. I realized that I had not been taken to the natural land of Israel, although that too will belong to us someday. I had been taken to the Kingdom of Yahveh. I was being shown and told that the Lord will protect and provide for every one of my people in the coming persecution as they would turn to Him through Yeshua. The train was the train of salvation, lavishly prepared by Yahveh for His people. Yeshua said: "It is the Fathers good pleasure to give you the Kingdom." And so it is my Dear Friends, to the Jew first and also to the Gentile. (Jer. 32:38-41 and Jer. 33:9)

29] EXPERIENCE: RESEARCH EXPOSES LOCAL HISTORICAL TRAIN WOUNDINGS & THUS INTERCESSION

Date: 1/3/00 8:13:58 PM Pacific Standard Time

From: mama531@wcta.net

Dear Sandy,

It has been incredible to see God preparing and working ahead of us and then putting pieces together! When I saw your e-mail I was intrigued, partly because I grew up in Oregon, (I am now living in Park Rapids, MN) and partly because I think the Lord simply drew my attention to it. As I get Rivermail that I think our pastor would be interested in I forward it to the church, and your first one about the glory train was one of those I sent.

A few weeks earlier we had begun using songs from the c.d. "Revival in Belfast" and one in particular grabbed our hearts. It's called "Revival" and part of it says "I can hear the thunder in the distance, like a train on the edge of the town." Also during that same time, as Pastor Fred began to research our town history in preparation for spiritual mapping, he had come across a story about the railroad's arrival in Park Rapids in the late 1880's. It struck him that there always seems to be something that takes the joy out of the usual town celebrations, and that this may be part of the origins of that. Now we have been in the River for nearly 18 months, but are at a point that God has told us to stand while He consolidates His work here, and He is causing us to learn, and work prophetically even in the standing.

Early in the history of our town, a politician needing votes played a hoax on the area. He pretended to promise his influence, even brought out surveyors to make it convincing, that the railroad would soon come to this area. As soon as he was elected the pretense was dropped. The joy turned to anger, and disappointment.

A few years later, when there was a competition between this town and another over which would be the county seat, everyone knew the railroad would make the difference. In the late 1880's the first train arrived, and a celebration was planned. Three young men planned to shoot a cannon to welcome it. They were inexperienced, but those who knew better refused to help. On the third shot the cannon exploded and two of the men lost their arms. The celebration continued half-heartedly, and in the following years it still affected all who saw the men and remembered that day.

So, as Pastor Fred read your e-mail about the Glory train, he also cried "Lord, come to our town too!" Pastor went to the local radio station and got a recording of a train. The next Sunday, he read that history, the e-mail, and we took prophetic action to welcome that train into Park Rapids, MN , desiring it to come ALL the way into town and welcoming it with full joy, renouncing the actions of the past.

And as he played the recording of the train, and the song "Revival" it was the same as if the shofars had blown, with many of us putting our faces on the floor.

A couple weeks later, we had a visiting pastor come for two services. During the two hour drive to Park Rapids, he asked God what He wanted to accomplish that night at New Life Christian Fellowship. God spoke to him about desiring that we stay on the "right track". Imagine his surprise as we sang that "Revival" song, "it's like a train on the edge of the town" and then as Pastor Fred explained the glory train again for those who had missed the explanation earlier.

Truly our Lord has more planned for us then we can imagine!

What an awesome journey we are on with the Lord waiting at the final depot to welcome us home!

31] FORMIDABLE TRAINS COMING

Date: 1/7/00 7:58:47 PM Pacific Standard Time

From: karenjoy50@hotmail.com (Karen Hudson)

Hi Sandy,

Discovered your website today and was reading the many prophecies/ dreams/visions people have been having about TRAINS. Thought I'd just share a word I received on 6/11/97 on the subject.

"I've prepared you for a time such as this. Keep on listening, I will show you the way. Turn not to the right or to the left, the way is before you.

You will be mighty in My Spirit. You will thrill at the way that I am taking you. Fear not, only hold on!

Trains are coming. Formidable trains. Trains of blessing, overflowing. Hold on! Get on! Get in!"

Note: Formidable =

1) exciting fear, dread or awe

2) hard to overcome.

See Esther 4:14.

Bless you!

Karen
