The Church is on Ferris Wheels – Rachel Adamus
I was napping and dreamed. I dreamed that I was in the car with my husband driving down a country road looking for a certain ministry. We wanted to participate in the ministry (I don’t remember if it was to help out or to take advantage of the resources). Our GPS told us we were there, but the specific location seemed wrong. We pulled into a lot. It was open country; I don’t remember buildings. There was a tent there and a large Ferris wheel that was moving slowly. We talked to the people who were there. They were doing some kind of ministry, but it was not the ministry we had been looking for. They asked us if we wanted to watch a one-minute video about their ministry. We said yes, and sat down in the tent. The man took my phone. He was going to use my phone for some reason to “project” the video onto the tent wall. I remember thinking I didn’t know how that would work, since it was bright outside. The next thing I know, I’m looking over to the next door lot, and I see a small Ferris wheel spinning really fast. There are a bunch of kids there. The Ferris wheel has no seats, just five-gallon buckets in which the kids are putting one leg and then standing and balancing themselves as they spin around. I remember thinking that was dangerous. There was also a stage set up. The primary instrument was drums. I said to my husband, “Hey, that’s the ministry we were looking for!” We left the tent and went to the other side. I remember we felt out of place. It was geared toward children, it seemed, and so we were too mature. Then I realized I had left my phone case at the other ministry; I thought the man must have taken it off when he was trying to use my phone for the video. We went back over to the other lot. This time, in my dream, the “we” was not me and my husband but me and my toddler son. It seems not much time had past, but the people at that ministry had fully disassembled their Ferris wheel and were packing up. My son found the case of my phone and picked it up. I remember conversing a little with the people there, but I don’t remember what was said. I also remember in my dream thinking that it was strange that there were two ministries side by side that knew nothing of each other, and they seemed to be doing very similar things. One was geared towards kids; the other toward adults, though no one had showed up at the one geared toward adults.
I asked the Lord if He had an interpretation for the dream, and He told me to write. When I sat down to write, I felt mostly mystified as to an interpretation, but as I wrote, the Holy Spirit brought revelation. The following is what He said to my spirit, and may you take these things in prayer, seeking to apply only and all that which is Scripturally true!
The country represents the wilderness. A voice is crying out in the wilderness, “Prepare the way for the LORD’s coming! Clear the road for him!” (Mark 1:3, NLT) The problem with today’s church is that they are trying to bring the gospel to the world through worldly means rather than through the power of the Holy Spirit. This is why you saw parallel Ferris wheels in your dream. A time is coming when all these gimmicks will end. That is why you saw the one ministry packing up so soon after coming upon them, for indeed, this time is now, and these worldly means will be ended. The devil is using these worldly means to carnally entice my people. But no one comes, because the world provides better entertainment. That is why churches are emptying. And those that are not are nothing but country clubs who are not preaching my truth. Lord, is that really true? I know of churches that are full that preach your truth. My daughter, I speak in general. There are a very few in this world who are still preaching my truth. And I have blessed some of them and filled them, to gather my elect and bring hope. When you first arrived by the GPS, which represents my Word, you felt like it was the wrong place because indeed, my Word does not lead you to gimmicky evangelism. There were no buildings because there was no temple of my Spirit there. 1 Corinthians 3:16: “Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?” Those in the church are trying to imitate my Spirit, which is the tent you saw. It is an imitation of the dwelling I have given–those who are attentive to my Word and listen to my voice and are led by my Spirit. The Ferris wheel is spinning out of control. It is the mechanism that people in the church have been using to bring people up to God–all of those flashy gimmicks that seek to replace the Holy Spirit, such as loud music and lights and dancing: emotionalism. But the Ferris wheel at the first site in your dream was moving slowly. That is because it was geared toward older adults. Older adults are not prone to embrace the gimmicks as quickly as young people. That is why there are not many older adults in these churches. It is also partly why the evangelists there were packing up quickly. There was a duel meaning to that image.
The one-minute video refers to the quick bites of information that this society needs to have all the time. No one can sit down and contemplate or hear words spoken, such as preaching. No one can stand for that. I am incensed by the flippancy and irreverence of this culture. There is no respect for my Word. Everything has to be projected on a screen in a flashy and gimmicky way. There is no hope for this generation; that is why you had the thought in your dream that the projection would not be seen because of the brightness of the light. I am the light of the world, but this world wants to project their sin and their unrighteousness and their futile minds onto a screen for all the world to see. I am the light of the world, and I will overcome their sin. I will utterly destroy it. I will consume it. I will burn it with fire. I will not allow it to be seen any longer. The brightness of my light will utterly consume the darkness. Lord, why do you say that there is no hope for this generation? Because, my daughter, it is the final generation and will feel the fullness of my wrath as I come upon it. Pray for it, that many will be saved before the fury of my wrath falls completely!
The man in your dream was using your phone to project the video because that is what the enemy does. He uses the phones of other people to do damage in my house. Phones represent the means by which you communicate. Satan wants the communication channels to be polluted–full of gossip, hatred, dissension, and every kind of discord, and he wants that evil to be made public. He wants it projected, not kept in the shadows. However, my daughter, the light of my coming will destroy the works of the devil. His darkness will be exposed for what it is.
You left the tent before you had the chance to see the video, because I am protecting my true saints from being polluted by the world and by the filth of sin that is perverting my churches. Unfortunately, my daughter, the reason you left was because you thought you had finally found the ministry of my Spirit, but it was not. It was an imitation of the gimmick-filled “ministries” that are Spirit-imitations. Perhaps it looked more successful, but that was because it met the needs of fun-loving young people. These young people throw caution to the wind and buy into every wind of doctrine that comes knocking at their door, promising to take them higher. That is why you thought what the young people on the Ferris wheel were doing was dangerous. It is! There is no true salvation found in anyone else: only Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. (Acts 4:12: “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”) The stage and the drums are a representation once again of the gimmicky gospel being given the young generation. They have turned away my spirit through their perversion and rebellion, and feeling their emptiness, they have sought to fill it with the “power” of music. This ought not to be! Oh, my people, “let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon” (Isaiah 55:7).
The case that you lost on your phone was a representation of my Spirit which is your armor. That armor must be removed for sin to enter and pollute my church. My bride, put your armor on! Your son was with you in the dream to reveal my power through children. It was through your son that you found your armor. “Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger” (Psalm 8:2). My children see all the evil; they often leave the church because they see the hypocrisy. They are a mirror to you. Listen to their warnings and be wise!
The two ministries side by side represent the way the church deals with its own. Each local church acts like a city on a hill, having no interaction with its brother church next door. This I speak on a general level, because I see that there is a working together of some churches for the advancement of the gospel. Yet many churches work together for the advancement of the anti-christ.
I also would mention that during my dream, I was getting these random flashes of being in some other place/situation and being tempted into sin. Also, when I awoke, I was feeling a heavy oppression, weariness, and sense of depression. I was also suffering with a lot of pain. All of these things have been tools of the devil throughout my life to shut me down. This is no surprise to me now that the Lord has given me an interpretation of this dream, which was about the way in which the devil is leading the churches into sin.
