THE VISIONS
Given To Rene Parault
PREFACE
The reason why I am presenting these visions that was divinely given to me over the past thirty or more years, is to document for the Church of God the words and the spiritual scenes given to me in visions. But more than documentation, my purpose is that the church should be enlightened and warned, which is the ministry of a prophet.
The ministry of a prophet is in being a spokesman for God. The scripture states that God will do nothing without first telling His prophets. Some of these visions God was speaking to me personally, implanting things in my life, initiating a call to me to follow Him and do His work. Other visions had to do with the world, and our nation concerning rebellion and sin and what God would do in response to it. There are also visions concerning the church, warning her of spiritual declension.
If we understand by visions God allows us to see what is present and what is future, so in truth, a vision is revelation and understanding. The question is, will we profit by them?
We pray that this book will increase your desire to see what God sees, and seek His face with your whole heart and soul.

THE
VISIONS
Given to Rene V. Parault
Ezekiel 33:1-9
"Again the Word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say to them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand."
INTRODUCTION
I was born to Swedish parents and raised in the Lutheran religion in Pittsburgh, Penna. Later, at the age of 14, our family moved to Hollywood, Florida where I finished high school and at the age of 19, married. I turned to Catholicism at that time because of my up-coming marriage to a Catholic man. So here I was with hardly any religious training of any sort. Around 1957, as a young married woman with two small children, I was leading a somewhat normal life and being a housewife and raising children.
VISIONS OF THE CLOUD
1957
Totally unexpected, this vision began one afternoon in my home in Hollywood, after I surrendered my life to Jesus. I stopped in front of the television and turned it on having never heard anything that Billy Graham said previously. He had delivered his message and was extending an altar call. I saw the multitudes going down to give their lives to Jesus, and so right there, with no one prompting me, I knelt down and gave my life to Jesus. Now I know it was a work of the Holy Spirit.
It was only a short time later I went into the main part of the house. My husband at that time was sitting talking with some friends, and I went to join them. As I sat down, this holy scenario began and I saw it descending from the ceiling. Being totally engulfed in what God was doing, I no longer saw my husband or friends. What appeared was a large, pink cloud and it was descending all around me. It was so thick that everything else was no longer in sight. I could not see anything except the pink cloud. The cloud was intensely full of love, a love that I had never experienced; a love in which sin could not exist or tolerate. Furthermore, it was a love where even the largest problem became small and disappeared. I was transfixed in the midst of this awesome pink cloud. Then another scene took place in the midst of the cloud. In this vision I could see through my house and there was standing a white-robed figure on the road that I knew was Jesus. He was beckoning to me with his hand, calling me to come to Him. And in this present hour, in my mind's eye I can still see Him. Then the cloud slowly began to lift, and everything came back to normal again. The sound of voices came back from the friends and husband; they all came back into view. They never saw the cloud nor knew that I had left their presence and was with the Lord for that period of time.
This first vision impacted me greatly, for the Lord knew that through the next eighteen years of marriage, I would be living in a terrible situation. Because of the cloud experience, I was able to go through many trials and tribulations in that season of time. One thing I knew for sure and that was that God was real and that He loved me.
We know that the Lord in previous days, even in ancient days has made His presence known through the cloud. In fact the cloud has always been a manifestation of His glory. We see this when Moses went up into the cloud on the mountain. Ex. 24:15. The cloud of His presence also appeared and filled the temple that Solomon was dedicating. I Kings 8:10. Also Ex. 13:21; Ex. 19:16. "And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to led them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: " And there are more scriptures.
The color pink is the color of life, warmth love and protection.
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT 1973
After this first vision sixteen years past by. In this season of time I had not been seeking the Lord. I was still carnal in my experience. Through certain encounters with those who were baptized with the Holy Spirit I began to search for a change in my life because of the void in my marriage. My children, now four of them, were in their teens. My marriage was a disaster and would soon be over. This man that I had married as a young woman later died of aids.
I became interested in the Catholic Charismatic Renewal that had begun in Hollywood, Florida. In 1973 through 1974 I started classes that were given at the Boys Catholic School through a priest that worked there. I was a very wounded woman, who was trying to keep her head above the troubled waters that I was living in. There began a stirring in my heart and I began to embrace the teachings concerning the baptism of the Holy Spirit. In one particular meeting I came to the decision to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Some of the leaders then came and laid hands on me and began to pray. One of the first things I saw was a vision of my grandmother who died when I was 3 years old, whom I loved. When she died, I was too small to cry or understand. But during the vision, God began a healing process inside of me. What I felt was like it was raining inside of me. Instead of tears on my face it was tears inside washing me, and I knew that I was being healed of the hurt and trauma of my childhood. As I walked outside of that chapel that night, after having received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the whole world indeed looked different. Everything had changed. I knew I had changed and was seeing the world through different eyes.
That night as I prayed, a wisp of smoke came out of the atmosphere and came upon me, and I began to speak in tongues. When I awoke that morning, I was still speaking in tongues. Even in my sleep all that night I was still speaking in tongues. Because I did not understand then, I went to the Lord and asked Him not to take it away and to give me the interpretation of this heavenly language. He answered back to me that the beginning of my tongues was saying to Him “My Lord and my Master.” Praise the Lord!
THE VISION OF THE CHANGING WORLD
Around the year of 1976 the Lord took me to Homestead, Florida one night for a gathering of some of the believers on a ranch. When I went out to look up at the stars, another vision appeared in front of me. It was a vision of the “world” just like you would see it on a round globe on a stand. The earth was the same colors you would see with the natural eyes - blues for the oceans, greens for the lands and grays for the mountains. Then the world began to slowly turn on its axis, and as it came around it was bright gold. Everything was a gold color - yes, the whole earth. And immediately the scene switched, and I saw people coming out of that, which appeared to look like caves. They were coming out slowly, and I seemed to be among them. We all looked around, because there was hardly any people left anywhere. Where there had been a thriving city of thousands, there was only in comparison perhaps fifty left. And I asked the question, in the vision, “Where did all the people go?” No Answer! Then everything was gone.
The Lord has led me to understand that there will come a time, when the earth and heaven are brought forth in a new way, there will be hardly any people left. When a third of the earth is destroyed, and the sea etc. there will be only a small population, as in the days of Noah, when only eight were left. Matt. 24:37-39; Rev. 8 and Rev. 21.
