The week before Easter, I dreamed this. In the dream I saw the words Psalm 11. Now I probably read Psalm 11 many years ago. So I was curious and got out my Bible and read Psalm 11. Read Psalm 11 and please tell me what or why was I tol to read Psalm 11. Thanks
Psalms 11:1-6 is a clear prophecy about the yet to happen; Lord's Day of wrath. Revelation 6:12-17The week before Easter, I dreamed this. In the dream I saw the words Psalm 11.

Indeed it's good to keep our eyes focused on the Lord.Psalm 11 King James Version (KJV)
11 In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
4 The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
5 The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
King James Version (KJV)
God bless your family, Sir. So do your wife and granddaughter regularly read the Scriptures also?Don't really obsess with anything. Yah we had Easter dinner, I would not call that obsessing, other than enjoying the wifes cooking. We had the Granddaughter over for dinner. And the only eggs I saw were the devilled eggs we had with supper. And definitely not Papists.
Some folks say in this day God no longer speaks to anyone, I somewhat disagree. I think it more likely people quit listening. The dream I had of Psalm 11, caused me to get up and read Psalm 11. So to me, who had not read Psalm 11 for so many years I did not recall it anymore. It was a message. A few years ago, my wife of almost 40 years was near the end of a losing 5 year fight with cancer. My daughter came to visit me. She said Dad please come to Church with me on Sunday. I said I can't sweetheart, God has forgotten me. I had spent 5 years day and night caring for my wife in our home basically alone. Family was too far away and could not come only visit. Friends evaporated, for the last 3 years of her sickness she was so ill I only had time to rush and shop and get prescriptions etc for 3 hrs once a week. My Church Fellowship forgot me, they walked away one by one, friends walked away, I persevered to keep my wedding vows unto death. So when my daughter said come to Church I said no, God has forgotten me, within that week God sent my salvation. So I now listen. I remember my Mothers words, be kind to the stranger at your door. He could be an angel sent by God. The story of Lot. Anyway I was merely seeking wisdom. He will reveal in due time with patience. ThanksAddressing the OP only, Revelation 18:4, Isaiah 52:11, Jeremiah 51:6, 2 Corinthians 6:17, and Zechariah 2:7.

The Scriptures are so rich and encouraging and challenging.

Thank you. first sorry to hear about your wife, second you answered your ownself by the dream. listen, Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions".Some folks say in this day God no longer speaks to anyone, I somewhat disagree.

I have seen too much of this failure on the part of those who call themselves the Church. Similarly when my father was failing through several months of cancer, only his natural family was there for him. For many years after his retirement from secular employment in addition to attending all church services he became the general handyman around the church building and grounds. He never asked for nor received a penny for anyone for his work. The lawns and shrubs were always trimmed and well waters. The restrooms were cleans with supplies always on hand. He did these things for many years until his own health failed him and he could not. Then only his pastor visited and that infrequently. No one else visited or called or sent a card of encouragement. Then he died. He was a loveable man who all of his life loved God, but where was the church family?Some folks say in this day God no longer speaks to anyone, I somewhat disagree.
