Dreams and Visions
Intercession for Phoenix
City of Phoenix Construction Project
There was a certain man who went to his door to answer the doorbell. When he opened the door, there stood a very tall and handsome gentleman. He was dressed in some very dark boots and a great pair of jeans. He wore a long white fluffy sleeved shirt. He had long golden hair. He said, “Are you Mr. ____?” My friend replied, “Yes, I am.” The handsome man said, “Come with me.”
My friend, without hesitation unlocked his front screen, stepped out on the front porch and then locked both doors behind him. He followed the handsome man out to the unit parking area. Once there my friend saw this beautiful big motorcycle. This new friend climbed on, looked up to my friend and told him to get on behind him and to “Hold on tight. We are going for a ride. I have something to show you.”
My friend told me that when he climbed on the back of this beautiful motorcycle he noticed that the fuel tank had the letters ‘HL’ painted on each side. These initials were brightly painted, in a very beautiful calligraphy style.
He just loved this bike, this big motorcycle. The handsome man turned around and said, “I am your friend. Here we go.” They backed up and then roared out of the complex and entered onto the freeway system here in Phoenix. They rode very fast across the city of Phoenix all the way out to the westside of the valley. They were on I-10 several miles past Dysart Road. The handsome man suddenly pulled the bike off the freeway where there was no exit. My friend said that he stopped the bike a few yards in front of a huge 40’ X 40’ sign.
My friend said he had been on the road before but never had seen this sign here. Three very tall wooden poles supported the sign. One could tell that who ever had the sign mounted wanted to make it easy to read from the freeway by passing motorists
This huge sign was about a construction project that was currently in progress within the city of Phoenix. It read:
|
THE CHURCH IN PHOENIX, AZ. PROJECT DIRECTOR:.................................ANCIENT OF DAYS WINNER OF CONSTRUCTION BID:.......LAMB ENGINEERING |
My friend kept reading the sign and then looking back over his shoulder at that fantastic bike. He also tried to steal a few looks at this very handsome man.
He did find out that his name was Friend. He then went on to read the rest of the huge sign.

THE CHURCH IN PHOENIX, AZ. PROJECT DIRECTOR:.................................ANCIENT OF DAYS WINNER OF CONSTRUCTION BID:.......LAMB ENGINEERING PHASE 1 .............................................................THE CHURCH IN PHOENIX PHASE 2 ......................................................................THE BODY OF CHRIST PHASE 3, FINAL PHASE (Now in Process )............ THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

My friend fell to his knees when he read that last line. He started crying out to God and saying “Oh Yes Lord. Oh Yes Lord”. After my friend had cried out and shed many tears, the handsome man came over to stand beside my friend and touched his shoulder. He told my friend that it was time for them to go.
As they were walking back to the bike, my friend could not keep from stumbling because he kept looking back at the big sign as they walked.
They got back on the bike and they rode back quietly to his home in the East valley. My friend said that he remembers smelling the handsome man’s hair as it blew around his face.
When they got back to the house my friend said, “I have to ask you what this is all about. I know what the vision is all about, I do understand this one. However, I have not seen phase 1 completed here in the city with the church. Yet, the sign clearly stated that the project was already in the third phase after completing phases 1 & 2. How can this be Sir?
The beautiful gentleman said that what is completed in the realm of the Spirit is always ahead of the natural world. The sign clearly was prophetic in nature and it was set there along the road to give weary visitors and citizens hope.
My friend asked one more question. He said, “I have to know what does ‘HL’ stand for? Besides, I cannot get the smell of your hair out of my mind. It is so distinctive and perfect.”
The handsome man replied “First I will tell you that I use ‘LAMB Shampoo’ that’s all.” My friend then said, “Excuse me. First there is Lamb Construction & Engineering, now Lamb Shampoo?”
The man replied “Well Yes. Lamb Manufacturing makes every thing in heaven. Everything we use is designed by the LAMB.”
My friend then shot back “Please tell me what does the ‘HL’ painted on the bike’s gas tank mean?”
The man replied, “Oh, this is a Heavenly Lamb Motorcycle. This particular bike is a 1st Edition ‘Eternity’ model. It is a great motorcycle. Once it was designed, it was manufactured and then blessed, by the LAMB. It was designed to never need a tune up, nor does the engine exhaust pollute the environment in any way. It’s perfect.”
“Now I need to tell you something" said the handsome man.
My friend then said “What? What?”
He said “The people in your city wide church, where you and all those who live in your homes are going to be like this model of motorbike. They will be perfect. Because the Lord you love is going to rise up through you by His Spirit.
You will never see each other again in the old ways. Your vision will change and all that you will be able to see is the Lamb’s presence in each other. He is your construction designer, the Ancient of Days. He is the author and finisher of your faithfulness.”
The handsome man named Friend, hopped back on that big bike, and as he roared off he turned and gave a big wave with his left hand and then just took off and suddenly was out of sight.
My friend went back to his front door and just stood there for a long time. He prayed “Oh Lord. Let me live long enough to see this with my own eyes; the third phase about becoming the Bride of Christ.”
