The Rough Cut Stones Vision

The Rough Cut Stones Vision




On Saturday, 6-18-11, while at the Healing Rooms, we were all singing, “Amazing Grace”, at the beginning of the prayer time. As we began to sing the opening verse, I was caught up into a vision. I saw the room we were all in, but everyone was changed into a rough cut stone. A silver platter was suspended in the room and everyone was placed on the platter. Each person was a different colored stone, but their facets hadn’t been defined perfectly yet.  Then I saw flames descend from heaven and each stone was engulfed in a flame on the silver platter. After a period of time, the flames lifted and each stone was brilliantly glowing and had perfect cut facets etched into each one. Then I heard myself singing the last verse of the song, “Amazing Grace”, and the vision ended. I don’t remember singing the middle verse at all.

So, I went and looked up facets cut in stone:

Zechariah 3
1THEN [the guiding angel] showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at Joshua's right hand to be his adversary and to accuse him.  2 And the Lord said to Satan, The Lord rebuke you, O Satan! Even the Lord, Who [now and habitually] chooses Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this [returned captive Joshua] a brand plucked out of the fire? 3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and was standing before the Angel [of the Lord]. 4 And He spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And He said to [Joshua], Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich apparel. 5 And I [Zechariah] said, Let them put a clean turban on his head. So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him with [rich] garments. And the Angel of the Lord stood by. 6 And the Angel of the Lord [solemnly and earnestly] protested and affirmed to Joshua, saying, 7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: If you will walk in My ways and keep My charge, then also you shall rule My house and have charge of My courts, and I will give you access [to My presence] and places to walk among these who stand here. 8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, you and your colleagues who [usually] sit before you--for they are men who are a sign or omen [types of what is to come]--for behold, I will bring forth My servant the Branch. 9 For behold, upon the stone which I have set before Joshua, upon that one stone are seven eyes or facets [the all-embracing providence of God and the sevenfold radiations of the Spirit of God]. Behold, I will carve upon it its inscription, says the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity and guilt of this land in a single day. 10 In that day, says the Lord of hosts, you shall invite each man his neighbor under his own vine and his own fig tree.
