DESPISING THE LORD’S VISIONS AND HIS WORD

“In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on My servants, both men and women” (Acts 2: 17-18).
But today, we despise this scripture. God has been fulfilling this scripture in our days as part of the end-time move and preparation of God's people for the Lord's coming (rapture and judgement), giving visions (of Heaven and Hell) to many, giving dreams of same to many, confirming signs through His word. But, perhaps because these visions often reprove of human carnal tendencies and warn sharply against eternity to come, we push arguments that christianity is not based on people's visions but on the word. Certainly yes! The truth is that, these visions never seek to contradict God's word, rather they are confirmatory of the same word. So, are we not despising this same word by despising these same visions which are sent to confirm the word.
The same way when Jesus came, John the Baptist was asking whether He was the one or they should await another;
"And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?" (Luke 7:19).
This looks like it today; God says in the last days (in which we are) He will by His Spirit bring forth visions and dreams. And now, the visions and dreams as He said are coming yet we despise them, saying we cannot learn or be corrected/instructed by them.
Beloved, let us not allow the enemy in the guise of "upholding" the word deceive us from the words of the Lord coming through select visions and dreams given to some people among us. Only that we should be sensitive to discern between confirmatory and contradictory divine revelations.
God bless.
