The rescuer in danger
 
 
Dream given by God to Pam Padgett / 6-21-16
 
I saw a woman whose job it was to give radiation treatment to help someone. After giving the radiation treatment she began noticing changes in the skin on her face, and then blisters started forming. She realized she had been burned pretty severely while giving the radiation treatment and needed to go to a hospital. I offered to take her to the hospital.
 
While at the hospital, I noticed blisters starting to form on me as well. I knew I also had been affected and went to tell the people in charge that I needed help as well.
 
Another woman, who I think worked at the hospital, was also affected and was almost hysterical.
 
Arrangements were being made to send the first woman to a place where she could get more intensive treatment. They included me and the other woman in the arrangements for treatment as well.
 
Comments by Joan Boney: At the time Pam received this dream, I had been working, trying to rescue a woman from the jaws of Satan. I had shared the problem with Pam.
 
Although it is my job to do this rescue work in the church, it affects me.   It can hurt me also. And it can hurt those who are helping me.
 
After Pam reported this dream, I turned strongly to God and for the next several hours, God worked with me on this matter by bringing many scriptures to my mind to show me the way I am to go in this matter... to heal me, to restore me. Also God brought to my mind several previous words HE had given me to help me. I talked with Pam after receiving these scriptures so she could be "treated" with the Word I had received. Pam also shared scriptures given her by God and I was helped (treated) by that God gave Pam.
 
As I considered whether to share these things with the offender in the matter, I prayed, asking God what HE wanted me to do and I was reminded of the following.

Lk. 16 ...They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them ... If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
 
I continually share exhortations with the church so everyone can be edified in the faith and warned. If they can't read these exhortations and correct themselves by the word of God, I can't correct them to the point of my own destruction.
 
Mt. 25 ... 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
 
2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
 
3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
 
5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
 
10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
 
11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
 
12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
 
13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
 
We must keep ourselves "ready".
 
If we are striving with the church to bring the church to God we might be drained to the point we cannot be ready to go forward.
 
Most of you who are reading this know how diligent I am daily to share exhortations from God to edify the church.
 
Can you not read these exhortations and do them? Do you have to have me carry you?
 
You must be responsible for doing the word of God and for keeping yourself in the faith in God by doing godly instructions.
 
And I must also keep myself "ready" daily.
 
If I am carrying you, I will be weighed down. How can I exhort the church under your dead weight.
 
Each of us who have the Holy Spirit have what we need to be able to stand upright and go forward. It is up to each of us to do just that.
 
I once told my mother the following: "You can go down but I'm not going with you."
 
She straightened up.
 
Warnings from Bible:
 
Isaiah 65:2 ... (God says) ... 2 I have spread out MY hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
3 A people that provoketh me to anger continually to MY face;
 
v.11 ... 11 But ye are they that forsake the Lord,
 
v.12 ...when I called, ye did not answer;
when I spake, ye did not hear;
but did evil before MINE eyes,
and did choose that wherein I delighted not.

Warning from the apostle Paul:
 
II Tim. 3 ... 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
 
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
 
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
 
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
 
10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, 11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
 
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
 
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
 
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
 
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
 
Concerning the woman I was working with to try to bring her back to the way of God ...
 
I told her to examine her motives ... to turn to God and ask God to show her. (This would be her getting her oil from God. Mt. 25)
 
A couple of days later, I was very burdened by thoughts of this woman. She kept coming to my mind over and over. Finally, I called her to give her additional message.
 
Unknown to me, that same morning this woman had said to God, "If I am missing anything, if anything about this is hidden, please show me." 
 
When I delivered the message to her it was something that had been hidden from her.
 
What God showed me is this: She desired approval of the church and she felt she was being denied the approval she sought.
 
I shared with her, approval is given us when God gives us the Holy Spirit. If we have the Holy Spirit, we have all the approval we need.

Eph. 1 ... 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein HE hath made us accepted in the beloved.
