Is Coronavirus The Tsunami?

One of the spiritual gifts I’ve experienced my entire life is the gift of prophetic dreams. Before I was five years old, I experienced dreams of places I had not been, but later saw in real life.

I never knew what to do with these dreams; many were so powerful that they have stayed with me, some for more than 50 years. Then in 2003, a casual conversation opened my eyes to how often God spoke and moved through dreams, in both the Old and New Testaments.

Several dream dictionaries and prophetic books later, I had begun analyzing my dreams on a semi-regular basis. One of my frequent dreams has to do with a house, or seeking a house or building location by a lake. This particular dream has been so frequent that it has informed our actual retirement plans, so now not I’m not sure if the house dreams happen because of God’s leading, or because I’m thinking about where we might move.

One very impactful dream took place sometime in the late 1990’s. For 13 years, I worked in banking, and spent six years in one job, in the same floor of the bank, in the same office. The dream that night took place in my office, on the 10th floor in the Corporate Trust department. Even to this day, I still regularly dream about being in that building, in that floor and office.

The dream that night was anything but routine or peaceful. Normally, the view from my office included high-rise office buildings and the James River flowing by downtown Richmond. But in the dream, suddenly I was outside the building, and watched in horror as an impossibly high wall of water roared up the river, water so high that it knocked down the building, like a tumbling domino.

This dream took place before 9/11. When the terrorist attacks of that day happened, one of the many riveting moments was––for me, anyway––the memory of this dream.

I might have thought that the dream only pertained to 9/11, if I didn’t start having so many dreams about water in the last 15 years.

Water represents several things prophetically, including the vast number of people alive on the planet who do not yet know who Jesus is, or the grand story that God has woven through Scripture and the stars in the sky. But I’ve had the sense for a long time that my water dreams are something foreboding, something important with respect to the days shortly before the return of Christ.

Turns out, I’m not the only one who thinks this way.

God promised that He would never again destroy the world with a flood; the next destruction comes by fire. But that doesn’t mean that significant, unusual water-related events won’t be part of the days that Jesus spoke about in Matthew 24 and elsewhere. I’ve actually read quite a lot about this, and believe part of the return of Christ involves weather events significantly influenced by the activity of the sun and other gravitational influences in the solar system, causing a shift in the earth’s magnetic poles. There’s a lot of evidence that this kind of thing has happened before, and may occur regularly. There’s even speculation that the ancient Hebrews knew about these occurrences and their frequency, and were in effect the keepers of this secret.

Last fall, I did a YouTube search on pole shift and tsunami, and in addition to all the videos, found a stunning amount of comments from people who have dreams similar to mine from more than 20 years ago about a tsunami knocking down the bank.

Fast forward to 2020. Coronavirus is sweeping the planet. I want to be so very wrong about this illness and what it means with respect to the calendar for the return of Christ.

God is the same yesterday, today and forever. He says He does nothing without revealing His work through those who have prophetic gifts first. I do not claim to be a prophet in anyway, but I do have prophetic gifts.

China figuratively contains a sea of people, more than a billion. Is the Coronavirus a tsunami wreaking death and destruction? Is it going to knock down the financial sector of the world economy? Only time will tell.

These are serious days. Stay healthy. China manufactures nearly 100% of the ingredients for the antibiotics sold in the US. Stay prayed up, stay in God’s Word. If this is indeed the ‘beginning of sorrows,’ you and me and everyone else claiming the name of Christ need to be fully equipped with the armor of God.
