Today I want to talk about the angels that brought me a vision and message. On a few occasions I have had visits from angelic beings that have left me in awe, with a sense of urgency, or uplifted and empowered. These angelic beings have always shown themselves to me in forms of men of giant stature. If I could describe them I would say that they were always at least eight feet tall and had magnificent physique like that of the physique of world class wrestlers. It is true that angels are the messengers of God.
My father would always be at the head of the kitchen table looking out the window early in the morning. He would rise before the sun as if to catch the sun rise every morning. I spent the night before with my parents and this particular morning as I passed the kitchen door I saw my father sitting there as usual looking out toward the horizon. Nevertheless there was something different about the look on his face. He seemed to be bewildered or perplexed. Looking at him so, I asked "Pops what's wrong? Is everything OK?" He looked at me a said that he was worried about my sister Gail. He said that he thinks that she is stuck somewhere and might not be able to get out. What did he mean? How could she be stuck? After all, my sister Gail was dead many months now.
Pops then asked me if I would pray for her because he thinks that she is in trouble. The first thing that came to my mind was that Pops was losing it. How could I possibly pray for the dead; The dead already gone on to glory. Right? But instead of questioning him I became obedient to his wishes and told him that I would pray for my sisters safety. That night when I got back to my house I had Pops and his request on my mind. I even began to wonder if what he said had any merit. Could the dead be in trouble? Could my sister be in trouble? Late that night when all was quiet I sat on the couch and prayed for guidance and understanding about my sister Gail.
I must have went into a deep sleep or trance and it is at that particular time that I got one of my visitations. They showed up again. It was about seven of these magnificent angels that came to take me on this journey. They did not say a word. But I instinctively knew to go with them. We seemed to be traveling through the city together on a crowded elevated train. We passed by many tall buildings and then got off. They surrounded me on all sides as we walked toward this tall apartment building. These angels were dressed in fine earth tone gold cloaks. The material was not of this world it was similar to a fine smooth lamb skin. I felt protected. We entered into the building and one of the angels pressed the button for the elevator to come. We walked into the elevator and then the angel pressed the button for the seventh floor. We got off at the seventh floor and walked into what seemed to be an apartment.
I passed by a few doors in this apartment and stopped at one of the doors. I opened it and there was my sister laying on this bed. She looked absolutely beautiful. She was wearing white from head to toe and she had a glorious glow about her. I was totally amazed to see her in this way because I knew that she had died and thought that I would never see her face again. Immediately I said to her, "Gail get up and come with me." Although I knew she was dead I still wanted her to come home with me. She looked at me with this wonderful smile and smirked at me the way that she always does and said, "G, I'm alright I can't go with you because I have somewhere else to go now and you can't stay here. You have to go back because there are things for you to do. Don't worry about me I'm gonna be OK. I touched her hand and said, "alright." All this time the angels were in the room with us just standing quietly.
I then walked out the room and back into the hallway toward the elevator surrounded by the angels. We rode the elevator to the first floor and got off. But I turned back around because I realized that I had left my coat upstairs in that apartment. I tried to press for the elevator to go back up but one of the angels whom seemed to be my spiritual guide ever since they first appeared stopped me from entering the elevator. I told him that I need to go back up and get my coat. He looked at me and took off this magnificent coat which seemed to be a giant piece of cloth. He then draped it around my shoulders and instead of being swallowed up by this huge piece of material it fit me like a glove. I was totally amazed and astonished. It was like a well tailored suit made from the finest fabric that I have ever known. It was like wearing a brand new skin.
I looked up at the angel and said to him, "this is not my coat." The angel gently bowed his head as if he needed to look into my eyes as he responded - "I know. This is my Father's coat." Immediately after I began to walk down the road surrounded by the angels wearing God's new robe. I woke up from this vision and instantly shouted glory to God, He has given me a new coat. It was now early in the morn and the sun was just beginning to rise. I couldn't wait to get to Pops house and tell him the good news.
That morning as I walked into my Pops house I saw him in his usual position at the kitchen table looking out the window toward the horizon. I said to him Pops, "I saw Gail last night in a vision and she is alright." He turned to me with a smile and smirk on his face and with joy filled eyes he told me, "I know son, I wasn't worried about your sister, it was you who I was worried about. You just needed to receive a message to get back on your journey." I looked at him thinking what manner of man is this nevertheless I was so happy to have gone on this journey of affirmation.
