Big Tech & Oil Dream

THIS IS AN URGENT CALL TO PRAYER

When God told Abraham he would destroy Sodom and Gomorrah and all its inhabitants, Abraham asked God to spare the righteous. Abraham understood the power of prayer and though the city was destroyed, through the faith of one man, God heard his plea and spared his nephew Lot and his family. We never know how God may change the course of history, but what God says he will do may change because of the prayers of the faithful, the hopeful, the persistent. You can read the account in Genesis 18. 

Though we have passions and thoughts about what is best, pray without bias. Pray God’s heart, his agenda, and be patient to hear his voice. “Wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.” Lamentations 3:26

When we pray to hear and obey God’s voice, we will remain a unified church. Don’t lose sight of what our overall commission is. “Soon afterward Jesus began a tour of the nearby towns and villages, preaching and announcing the Good News about the Kingdom of God.” Luke 8:1

“So pay attention to how you hear. To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given. But for those who are not listening, even what they think they understand will be taken away from them.” Luke 8:18

In my dream, I was explaining to someone what I saw in my dream. I went back to sleep and the dream picked up from the previous dream. This was my dream in a dream:

 I was in an office setting with two other women. It seemed I was with former colleagues. I don’t remember everything, but the work we were doing was confidential. It felt like our work environment was outdated by several decades, but the technology was present day.

We went to the elevator and as we were walking to get through the building it felt like we had been closed in. It appeared we were prepared for massive rain and/or a downpour and it was almost like we were on a ship and making our way through a lower deck. The walls were dark and rain gear hung on them. Many had suspenders with wide legs and I commented how fashionable they were for women. I thought if there was a huge downpour or emergency, the rain gear was quick to access. We could just grab and run.  

We had to rush back into the office for what appeared to be a state/national crisis. We didn’t know what was going on, yet I sensed it was worldwide and “mobile/oil/Shell/electronic” raced through my mind. We were never told exactly. 

One of the women that had been working with us didn’t return when we did. Her name was Rachel Weston.

Our supervisor told us to get an email out to all employees as soon as possible. I looked up the email address for Rachel Weston but she wasn’t on the employee contact list. It was then we realized she was like a spy and that Rachel Weston must be a fake name. I asked what address she had listed in her Human Resource file. There was nothing in the file for Rachel Weston. 

I thought, “that can’t be. She has to live somewhere.” I said, “she had to put something down.” They looked further and said, “a warehouse is listed, but still no address.” Suddenly, a suggestion came to mind that I knew was nothing I could have come up with. I knew it was from the Holy Spirit. 

I said “look for mobile/oil/Shell and those who are funding the work and research. Look for foundations. When you find those companies, you’ll trace them back to the warehouse and you’ll find the address where Rachel Weston is from. I felt in my spirit foundations were a huge part of the research. I kept what I was feeling of overall funding to myself. 

I believe the dream ended and/or it’s what I sensed in the dream, opposed to it being one continuous dream.  

Second dream: 

After looking for the address, we went back to work to figure out what this was all about. I sensed this was going to affect the world if we didn’t do something and quickly. I told the group this was serious and it will impact the world. They didn’t comment and in fact, dismissed me and actually let it go. 

In silence, I continued my search when a former colleague came up and whispered, “you’re right.” She had discovered things were indeed taking place in secret. She said, “it was mobile/Shell/oil//electronics and if it wasn’t stopped it would be too late and it would impact everyone around the world.” “It’s how we will be controlled.” She said the research was almost complete and nobody knew what had been taking place.

Third scene:

Rick and I were going to try and catch Rachel Weston or the perpetrators, those doing the hidden research. We went to an old-fashioned, family restaurant. It felt like we were in a Dutch restaurant. The waitresses appeared to be dressed in traditional Dutch outfits. They were wearing white dresses and putting on white aprons as we walked in.

Rick set up a camera at the far end of the breezeway of the restaurant. Shortly after, a man came in with his camera. Neither one of us wanted to say what we were doing, yet it appeared we were doing the same thing. We had a conversation, which I don’t remember about what exactly, but we were waiting to catch a glimpse of them. They were in the building across the street. Would it be this so-called “Rachel Weston,” incognito, connected to mobile/oil/Shell/electronics? Was she connected to the entire world somehow? We never mentioned her name to the gentlemen.  

End of dream.

When I woke up the name Rachel Weston was so prominent in my mind that I knew this was a God-dream. I don’t know anyone named Rachel Weston and because it was so clear, such an important element in the dream, I felt an urgency to go to prayer.


When COVID-19 first impacted the world, previous dreams began to unfold, revealing how God was moving in our midst. He continues to do so and like in the days of Abraham, guiding us on how to pray for our cities, even the world. If you feel led to, please read and pray as the Lord leads.

INTERPRETATION

December 29, 2020, two days after this dream, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell introduced a new bill linking the $2,000 stimulus payments to repeal Section 230 —  a bill to reform the protections of Big Tech Companies and those with the biggest influence.  

  • I felt in my spirit the “electronics” part of this dream is connected to this latest news update of Section 230 and Big Tech companies. I feel an urgency in my spirit to post this dream as a call out to Christians to pray, to continue to intercede for our nation. Why? The influence they have to control information and messaging. 

  • I believe the dream begins with a picture of what might be connected to what workers wear on oil rigs out to sea. Navy perhaps? 

  • I believe the last scene at the restaurant represents the need for Rick and me to wait upon the Lord and ensure we are seeing through the eyes of God. As we do, we’ll receive clarity and revelation of how to pray, i.e., camera, lens. The things of God will come into focus and through prayer, the Lord will make it clear what to see and what to pray for. People (represented by the other man) may look at the same “scene” in life yet have a different perspective on what is going on around them. Don’t listen to others. See what God sees. Hear what God says. This is especially true with world events, which this dream is addressing.

In time, the Lord will reveal the details.

UNITY AND DIVISION IN THE CHURCH

I Corinthians 1

...he has invited you into partnership with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

I appeal to you, dear brothers and sisters, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, to live in harmony with each other. Let there be no divisions in the church. Rather, be of one mind, united in thought and purpose. 

13 Has Christ been divided into factions? Was I, Paul, crucified for you? 

18 The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God. 19 As the Scriptures say,

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise  and discard the intelligence of the intelligent.”

20 So where does this leave the philosophers, the scholars, and the world’s brilliant debaters? God has made the wisdom of this world look foolish. 

24 But to those called by God to salvation, both Jews and Gentiles, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 This foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God’s weakness is stronger than the greatest of human strength.

26 Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world’s eyes or powerful or wealthy when God called you. 27 Instead, God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful. 28 God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important. 29 As a result, no one can ever boast in the presence of God.

30 God has united you with Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made him to be wisdom itself. Christ made us right with God; he made us pure and holy, and he freed us from sin. 31 Therefore, as the Scriptures say, “If you want to boast, boast only about the Lord.”
