I think you are right Ruth. The power of prayer is beyond human comprehension! Houstonians Try to Pray Ike Away |

wow, how cool is that, that the local TV station put theirs prayers on the local news show! It was suppose to rain all weekend at the university town we were going to, to visit my son . I prayed and said to our Lord, "this is a big prayer, but I know You can do big things, please Lord may the rain not interfere with our door plans, thank you Jesus." The forecast predicted 90% chance of rain. It rained all around us but not on us! God loves to give good gifts and bless His children. |

Juggernaut any word there about the following, as posted by Kamcco on another thread: Is there a cover-up about the number of victims of Ike? Posted September 22nd, 2008 by Hannah2 http://www.khou.com/forum... "Account of oilfield exec allowed to go inspect the rigs. To do so, they had to fly over Galveston. His news is grim. He says he personally saw 1500 bodies in trees, more in marshes and ditches. Of course, I pray this is wrong, but I am afraid it may be closer to the truth. Those who have official access to the island are being patted down for cameras, and any found are being confiscated. This is inhuman, and is all for political CYA." "Just got a phone call from a friend in Beaumont. They were on the scene attempting to help with recovery. Six bodies floated past them. The Coast Guard was there and admonished them to keep their mouths shut ... said "You did not see anything. Is that understood?" So apparently the media blackout is not only for Galveston. This is not a bad rumor. I know these people and they would not make this up." http://snarkfood.com/coas... 9/17/08: Firsthand account of hundreds of bodies seen in trees in Galveston. This from an oilfield executive who was allowed to check on the rigs, and therefore had to fly over Galveston. Many were seen is marshes, ditches. People who have access to the island are now being patted town by officials to ensure no camera footage would be shot and get into the media. 9/16/08: Very Important Update: A reporter and his wife who formerly lived in Tyler were on Galveston Island during Ike. The media blackout is trying to be enforced by the mayor and other city officials, but rescue workers are telling people that the death count is far more than is being reported. They are going door to door, but are leaving bodies inside of structures for now, so they can focus on rescuing those who survived. Unlike Katrina, they aren’t spray-painting “X” on the houses where the dead are. Instead they are putting discreet stickers on the structures, making them harder to see by the already handcuffed media. Click here for the Tyler Paper story and interview. 9/15/08: The LA Times Asks About The Elephant In The Room: Where are all the people? If you do the math, about 20,000 people believed to be in Galveston just aren’t there. Is this why the press is being restricted and the no-fly order is in place? CNN says today: “Rescue crews on the Texas coast continued to look for the estimated 20,000 residents who dismissed evacuation orders and tried to ride out the Category 2 hurricane’s massive storm surge and 110-mph winds.” http://www.dailypaul.com/node/63258 |

Was this dream fulfilled with Ike? ------------------------------------------------------------ Prophecies, Dreams and Visions An Event in Houston - Terrorist Attack or Industrial Accident? Date of dream - June 3, 2008 - Posted August 26,2008 I had this dream several months ago but I have not published it until now! I do know what this dream means and I really did not want to reveal it because I have family in Houston. I do not want to scare them. I also have faithful supporters that live in the Houston area and I do not want to scare them either. So for almost 3 months I have kept this dream to myself. But God has rebuked me. If I am a watchman, I am not to hoard a warning to myself. So brethren, I repent of not revealing this dream sooner. I do not want to raise fear or unnecessary alarm. I do not know what caused the destruction in the following dream. I will just tell you what I saw. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I was in Houston inside of a building and I was looking out of a window. Suddenly, there was a solid black cloud about 50 feet above the ground and it was several hundred feet tall and about 50 feet wide. It went by the window from left to right. I am not sure if it was a tornado because it seemed to be more like a moving column of very black smoke. As it went pass the window, I saw that there was a tall and fat pine tree being carried in the smoke column. The pine tree was totally black with soot all over it. It had no branches and it resembled a telephone pole. But it was not a telephone pole because I saw that there was still bark on the tree. It was a dirty, sooty black. The cloud and the tree were traveling past the window at about 30 to 40 MPH. After it went by, I got into my car to leave the building. I made a right turn and drove into the street. At the first intersection I made another right turn and after I drove a few blocks, the scenery suddenly changed. It was like the scene of an apocalyptic movie. The road was suddenly full of emergency equipment. Fire trucks, ambulances and hundreds of emergency workers. There were also young boy scouts helping out in the efforts. Along the opposite side of the street were hundreds of people just staring at the destruction! The scene was very eerie. The vehicles were parked along the street of what was once, a large housing subdivision. But the houses were all gone. As far as I could see, there were no longer any houses left standing. The entire neighborhood was gone: no houses, no cars, no bodies! The only thing that was visible were the remnants of tall trees without their branches. The trees were solid black with soot all over them. They were all snapped off at about the 30 foot level. The ground was also very black and sooty. It was not ash but more of like the black soot from a chimney. I saw a child about 5 or 6 years old standing across the street just staring at the destruction. She was very sad. I went over to her and leaned over to talk to her but she would not answer. She seemed to be in shock. So I gave her a balloon and got back into my car to leave. I drove further down the street about a half a mile until I came to an obstruction that cars could not get pass. The street was totally covered with a thick mud that was made out of the black soot. It was about 1 to 2 feet thick. There was no way to get past this muddy soot. It began to rain. The dream was over. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Conclusion: This dream is a mystery to me because I do not know what could cause such destruction. At first it would seem that maybe a tornado did the damage, but that would not explain the black soot all over everything. I do not want to speculate that it was done by a nuclear weapon, a conventional weapon or an industrial explosion. Or a combination of several of these things. I do not know if the destroyed neighborhood was one of many. I do not know if it was accidental or on purpose! Could a refinery explosion destroy a neighborhood? Could a terrorist attack at a refinery do this? I have wondered about this dream for several months now. I feel that God wishes me now to publish it. I hope that this dream will never happen. Note* - To the people in Houston that may be reading this. Or to those with loved ones in the Houston area. If this dream is prophetic, there is no way to know when it will happen. So, my advice to you would be to make it a matter of prayer to the Lord our God Jehovah and ask Him to protect you and your family if and when this event occurs. He can do it brethren! Again brethren, I hope that this dream will never happen! Lord have mercy on us! Date of dream - June 3, 2008 http://www.watchmanscry.com/prophecy_houston.html |

Don't think Ike was a fulfillment of this prophecy. Galveston is approx. 60 miles east/southeast of Houston. Galveston/Boliver area were completely wiped out. The damage was devastating. Some neighborhoods have completely vanished, swept out to sea. Houston took some pretty sever damage but nothing compared to Galveston. I am from the Houston area and still have family and friends that live there. My boy from Baytown lost 2 windows and part of a fence, My daughter in law who lives in Pasadena (she is a widow) had no damage at all but many on her street lost some trees. My boy that lives on the east side of Houston lost a tree but no other damage to his home. His neighbor lost a chimney. They were all without power for several days but the power is being turned back on and life there is slowly getting back to normal. It is a whole different story in the Galveston area. It will be a long long time before life is back to normal there. |

The soot in the dream signifies an enormous fire of some origin. Possibly a terror attack on the fuel stores and refineries that are there. Given the conditions there at this time, an attack of this time would be made more possible than before Ike's rampage. Selah |

Yep, I agree with you both. I guess I was thinking about all the destruction in Galveston, and I know they had at least 17 structure fires on the island during Ike, so I thought this could have been what he saw in his vision. |

All of the chemical/refinery plants along the Houston Ship Channel are connected underground so if the safety measures in place fail during a massive explosion at one plant the whole channel could go. If this were to happen it would destroy LaPorte, Baytown, Deer Park, much of Pasadena and Galena Park as well as east Houston and numerous other small towns located along the channel. It would be the greatest disaster the world in the world since the flood. Along Highway 225 there is miles and miles of petroleum storage tanks as well as numerous chemical plants and refineries. |

Boy Rahab, that sure makes me wish my hubby would come home soon. He is still working down in the Galveston area restoring power. I won't tell him about your post until after he gets back to NC. :) |

kamcco I lived 60+ years right off 225 and never felt uneasy about the plants. The safety programs in the plants are fantastic. Just trust in the Lord and I'm sure your hubby will make it home ok. I'll say a special prayer for you both. |
