They [144,000] sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. And in their mouth was found no guile. Rev 14:3-5

The Perfect Storm is Coming
[A lady at SDA church forward this description or depiction of what is about to come to earth. It shows we are living in a very sobering time, to seek the Lord]
THE PERFECT STORM
From Dr. Diane Barnett, from www.harvestseekersministries.org, harvestseekers@gmail.com, dreams were around August - September 2010.
I recently had a dream that when I related it to others I found that they, too, had had a dream about a storm. May the seriousness and soberness of the hour be with us.
On Tuesday, August 3rd, I had a dream before awakening in the morning. I was walking outside to go into a building with my family. It was a clear day and one of my brothers was racing and playing around on the way in, making me laugh. As we got inside to a certain room, I felt wind blowing in. I knew that the room would never get warm unless the opening to the room was closed. My father and I went to go close it and saw that the main doors into the building were wide open. At that point I realized that the building was made of wood and was much like a barn. As we approached the doors, I saw that a tremendous storm was on us. The atmosphere of laughter was turned into crisis. All was dark and things were whirling every direction with winds of hurricane strength. We were struggling to close the doors as the strength of the winds were so strong that we could barely pull them. I heard a dog scream in the destruction of the winds just before waking.
As soon as I awoke I felt that the storm was the final crisis of the earth and that it is "near, even at the doors." I realized that all earthly buildings (spiritual and temporal) would be destroyed in such winds. I felt desperate to have the fullness of God's grace, His protection. I felt anxious to know that I had oil in my lamp. I have been praying for direction regarding certain decisions I must make, and I felt this dream was to help me know what to do. I felt it was significant as it was in the exact same manner as two previous dreams I had regarding my daughter's cancer: At 4:00 in the morning, short, succinct, and memorable.
I felt I had to tell someone of the dream so not to loose the impact. I called Winnie in Bermuda to tell her, and we had a prayer for help to get ready. Then when I got to work, Lisa was in my office.
"Lisa, I have to tell you about the dream I had this morning." After relating to her my dream, she said to me: "That's strange. I had a dream last night about a storm, too. In my dream I was standing outside of a large white building. Before me was a river and there were people all over the place playing and going about whatever business they had. Several of us were standing next to the white building, and though I was with them I had a sense that I really should be in the building. Very soon a warning was given to all of us that a really bad storm was coming and that we should seek shelter. Since I was standing close to the entrance of this large white building I thought that I'd stay outside just long enough to see the storm approach. I have always enjoyed storms so I didn't feel intimidated. But quite unexpected the storm blew in on a sunshiny day and all were so surprised that it was hard to maintain our footing. A large stocky man came out of nowhere and grabbed my arm and dragged me to safety inside the building rebuking me for being outside. People were screaming and all was crazy outside, but inside everything was peaceful and restful. And immediately I had the sense that this place was for only those who kept the health message and lived in unity with God. Many did not come inside though there was space for everyone. At that point, I woke up.
She did not think her dream was anything significant until she heard my dream. Hearing her dream also brought greater impact regarding my dream.
Later on Thursday of that week we were having devotions for medical conference. I shared my dream as well as Lisa's. One of the students then said that Nicky had also had a dream about a storm. When Nicky came in we asked her to share her dream.
She dreamed that there was a tsunami. Hundreds of people were being pulled out to the ocean and drowning. She was striving with all her energy to save an unknown person. She had to grab hold of the person and pull with all her strength to get the person to shore. There was a stairway with a banister coming out of the ocean. She put the person in front of her so that she could prevent the wave from crashing on the person. She got a hold of the banister with one hand, and with the other held onto the person. It took great effort to keep the person from being pulled out with the under-tow.
The next day, Friday morning, I had a phone conversation with a patient's mother in England. She told me that she and her husband were convicted that they needed to move back out to the countryside. They had moved closer to the city for convenience because of her husband's work. But the children were now totally unruly after being in public school.
I told her it was not only an option, but a directive from God as we are at the end of time. I then related my dream, as well as Lisa's and Nicky's. With amazement she then told me: "Dr. Diane, I had a dream about a storm six weeks ago. It was flooding and people were drowning everywhere. My concern was for my 5 children. I was desperately looking for all of them to make sure they were safe."
I had a lecture to give to our lifestyle guests at Uchee Pines that morning. As I finished my talk on cancer, I told them that I believed we were at the end of time. I related all the dreams about a storm to them, now four in number.
The following week on Monday afternoon I was seeing patients. I was visiting with our 15 year-old guest and her mother. Sydni left the room for a fever treatment while I finished discussing plans with her mother. June related to me how thankful she was to be able to come to Uchee Pines. She had struggled with weight issues for over 24 years unsuccessfully. What she had learned here at Uchee led her to a full commitment, and with God's grace, she and her husband would follow God's plan as a family.
I then asked her if she heard my lecture on Friday when I told about the storm dreams, especially Lisa's with the building that was for people that kept the Health Message.
"Dr. Diane, I almost fell out of my chair when you told those dreams. Sydni had a dream last week about a storm. I went and found her to ask her about the dream, but all she could tell me was that it was a horrible storm and she was so afraid."
The import of these messages seemed to be growing in weight. I had to tell everyone. I went to the executive office and asked Brother Champen if I could tell him something. "Well, I don't know. Is it good or bad?" he asked. "Yes!" was my answer.
I then related all the above story. When I finished, he remarked that "this is very sobering, and we are not ready. We are too busy."
I then went to my office to get ready to go home. A young woman from off-campus came in to visit. "Chrissy, I have to tell you something."
"Oh no. Do I need to sit down?" she asked. "No," I said, "you need to kneel down."
After I told her all of the dreams, she said to me, "Dr. Diane, I had two dreams last week about tidal waves. But there was a big wall by the shore and as long as we stood on the wall we were safe."
On Tuesday, Dr. Karla Boutet's told me of an experience (not a dream) that she had while at camp meeting at Camp Alamosa. It was a nice day and she decided to take the kids out on the lake in the paddle boat. As they paddled down the lake a little way, a woman stepped out on her porch and yelled out to them, "A storm is coming." Karla turned and asked her if she knew when it was coming. Others turned and headed for shore, encouraging her to head for shore as well. Just as they reached the dock the storm burst upon them. She felt impressed that this was as the storm coming upon the earth and that she should not ask "when" but to head for shore and be ready for the storm in shelter.
I continue to share this series of dreams because the seriousness grows as I hear from others that they, too, have had a dream or an experience of a storm.
August 14th after church on Sabbath I shared the stories with the Hargreaves. Teresa tells me that in the last week she woke in the morning with the song "Shelter in the Time of Storm" on her mind and she couldn't get it out of her mind.
She She said that was unusual for her; she never awakens with a song on her mind like that. She even told her parents about it as it seemed so out of the ordinary.
Later that day I had some friends over to the house. When I begin to share with them the story of the storm dreams, Jane interrupts me about three dreams into the story. About 4 weeks ago she had a dream about a storm wave. Joella's family, her own family, and her church family come to a house that they had never been to before but they feel like they know it. Someone suddenly shouts: "There's a big wave coming." "I walk to the front door and I see a huge wave, so huge it looks like it could hit the moon. I am afraid because I am thinking that no one is going to survive this, no one here underneath this roof. I stand watching it and as it gets closer it turns into monuments, like the red rock monuments of our land. I turned from looking out the door and saw that everyone in the room was in deep prayer. It seems like their prayers are what turned the waves into monuments. I felt impressed not to disturbed them and went to the back of the house. I then felt at peace, not afraid. It felt like God was there."
"When this dream occurred, I was going through very difficult trials at that time here at Uchee Pines. I felt out of place and I wanted to go home. As I woke up from this dream, I felt assurance that I was doing the right thing getting the training here at Uchee Pines because the storm is coming and that this is what I need to go back home and get my people ready."
August 27, 2010: In the last week, four more people have told me of a dream they have had in the last 2 months pertaining to being in a storm, mostly a tidal wave or tsunami. Amy Pershin had a dream of a tidal wave. She knew it was coming and the Lord said: "Just hold on." She felt herself under water temporarily with the Lord again saying, "Just hold on." She came out from under the water and felt the peace and security in the Lord. Mary Jane Lewis, Tatiana Meinhart, and Garrison Haywood all had a dream of a storm and I will add the details of these after they give them to me.
September 2, 2010: Sean Bryant told me today that he dreamed he was in a house and a tremendous and frightening storm was outside. All of the events Christ said would happen before His coming were happening, one right after another in quick succession. He said he knew they would happen quickly, but he didn't know it would be that quick. He saw fire coming out of the sky. He looked outside and saw a black cloud the size of a man's fist, growing as it came closer. He could see that it was the Lord coming but it dissipated before reaching him. He awoke feeling the great need to be ready now for the Lord's coming.
I feel very sure that the Lord is giving the message of urgency and the imminence of the hour.
When we as doctors have a patient that is approaching the end of their life, we tell them that "they need to get his/her affairs in order ... Is your will made?" I believe the Lord is telling us that we are at the end of life here on earth. It is time to get our affairs in order. Our living will needs to be in place.
Isaiah 26:20 says: "Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast."
Matthew 7:24-27 says: "Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it."
