Wake Me Up When September Ends
A lot of people are talking about what’s coming in September. My wife had an interesting dream this morning that I wanted to share with you to illustrate a couple of points:
This was the only dream she can remember having in the last 4 years where the setting was our current house.
(Current house = current time frame)
In the dream, a man came to our home early in the morning to tell us something about a flood. He had pictures of flooded homes and he wanted to show them to us. (Was this fellow a prophet who came to deliver bad news?)
I came outside to hear what he had to say and after hearing some of his message, I told him to leave, twice. Then my wife came out to see what was going on. She was annoyed because she had not had her coffee yet and this guy was interrupting her morning.
He had tables and chairs set up in front of our house and there were a lot of people sitting down listening to him.
(The man was speaking to people we know)
My wife listened to him and he rambled on and on but never did get around to telling us the point of his message. He just kept rambling.
(He comes to deliver a message, but has no specific details he can share.)
At this point, my wife went back inside the house and the dream ended.
Things to consider:
I’ve read a number of recent prophetic words which use the word “flood” symbolically. They speak about something “coming in like a flood” but few of these prophetic words have any specific details to share. Prophets are reporting “something” is going to happen, and many of these involve the time frame of the middle of September, but they tend to be sparse on details. (If you happen to have any revelation that includes details about what we might expect, you can leave the information in a comment below.)
God does not ask us to react to prophecy. He asks us to judge it (or discern it by the Spirit if you prefer.)
If a prophetic word is judged not to be of God; not to accurately represent His heart; or not to represent the truth of a matter, we are free to disregard it.
If a prophetic word is deemed to be from God; if it’s deemed to represent the truth of a matter; or if we believe God is revealing the enemy’s plan, we have a couple of options:
1) We can stand in agreement with the word and pray for it to come to pass.
2) We can stand against it and pray for the opposite to come to pass.
The twelve spies returned from the land with a mixed report. Ten of them had a negative view of their chances for victory. Two spies liked their odds. The report the Israelites chose to believe became
their destiny. Sometimes we’re given options and we get exactly what we believe to be true. We have a choice about what we choose to believe about September. If we come into agreement with a bad report, we may very well help in making it come to pass. But if we expect God to do something positive and pray in agreement with it, we could see some pretty cool changes.
I’m not saying that there aren’t some changes coming in September. The only constant in life is change. The only exception is God. As for me, I’m expecting changes—for the better. I’m going to keep advancing the kingdom that is always expanding its rule. It is, after all, a kingdom that cannot be shaken. And I’m going to keep dreaming with God.
Be sure to wake me up when September ends.

September = extreme outpouring throughout the world 🙂
Love that! That’s exactly right! We are to believe that God has the best…yes it’s perilous times but the light is greater than the darkness. God will strengthen us no matter what.
Thank you brother and sister for your post. There are several “prophets” — some sadly believers who are misled and uninformed causing all kinds of fear and trepidation to the body of Christ (those who are saved and are not established in God’s Grace). I watched a specific one and was dismayed that people, who are believers, could not discern that this was not a Godly prophesy. She mentioned many things that are contrary to what God’s Word says. My last and final word on this is, for whatever it is worth. Surely God would not reveal times and dates to a prophet and not to His Son, our Lord Jesus. Isn’t that what the bible says, that no one knows the hour not even the Son. The enemy roams about seeking whom he may devour..believers will go to Heaven but the enemy can make their time on the earth a living “hell” if thye buy into his lies. Why should we care about what is going to happen? My hope is in the Lord and the snatching away of the Church by our lovely Lord Jesus who rules and reigns over the Church, His Bride. Again, thank you and bless you for your faithfulness. Shalom!
wow, I keep going back to the fact you told or asked him to leave twice, he didn’t. He rambled never getting the point of his visit across to you or your wife but had provisions for others you knew and they heard him. Now I ask the questions…. does this mean what he had to say was not for you but for those close to you or connected to you somehow? Were you like Moses, allowed to see but not experience for some reason? Was he a False Prophet and you saw loved ones bending itching ears? To these I have no clear answers but perhaps one or none of these are at all anyway just my observation.
I heard the same thing from a man a few months ago, having to do with the blood moons. Here is the thing.. This man is a guy who believes in the kingdom message, in healing, in gifts, etc. He followed a prophetic word he received about traveling with his wife who is a traveling nurse while he was afforded the ability to preach and teach around the word. He took this and was having a great time, he seemed like he was in his calling, but then this ‘word’ came, he retreated. He came home, sold his house in the city, bought a cabin in the woods (seriously) and now he is isolated and helping a small town “prepare” for an imminent crisis.
His end time beliefs about God impatiently waiting and salivating at the mouth to pour His wrath on an evil world is what caused his behavior. I am not a futurist when it comes to end times, and I am not saying I am an expert but this teaching that is rampant in the body of Christ causes double mindedness and is not in the nature of Jesus Christ, in my opinion.
So many conspiracy minded Christians, no wonder the world thinks we are all nuts.
As for me, I’ll keep loving the hell out of people the best I can today and pursue God while I make the most out of the blessings He has given me.
Great article, I have followed you a few years from Facebook and now twitter but never commented. Lord bless you Praying Medic

Can’t wait for September! 😀 Torben Søndergaard’s coming to Japan! Woo hoo! I hear there’s gonna be a great spiritual shaking here. Oh, and it just so happens, his return flight is on the 28th, the day of the 4th blood moon. 😉 😉 😉
Thank you for sharing. I haven’t really been seeing any prophets talking about September. I do have my own experience that relates to it though. Last year in early October I was awakened from sleep hearing the question, “What price do you want gas to be?” I knew it was God. At the time, gas was about $3.75 per gallon. I reasoned with him about how low it could go and not topple nations unless that was His plan, and I specifically mentioned Iran. I stuck with $2.75 but then realized later I should have asked for lower! He said, ok it will be on average that price for one year and will change again at the end of next September. That is coming up. Here the price of gas actually got down to $1.75 for awhile, but on average has been around $2.75 for this past year. I assumed that in September it will go way up again, but I pray not. Someone mentioned that with the Iran nuclear deal, they will be “flooding” the market with oil and gas should go down a lot. I think that will topple America’s gas production, because it costs them more than the cost of a barrel right now to produce a barrel. Lord keep us from the evil one!
Wow. I often used to speaknovrr the price that it would lower even when media outlets would say it was on the increase. Thanks for the reminder. And where we are it’s just a bit below that $2.75 amount, by the way. 😉
I’m believing for good things also. It has nothing to do with burying my head in the sand either. I to believe this is an ever increasing kingdom and it cannot be shaken.
I loved the bit on the 12 spies. This is SO true, we get to choose what we believe.
I know something’s coming – something GOOD. I haven’t been given a specific time frame but hey – September’s looking good for me. I believe we are on the brink of a major move of God (not that He was ever stuck – you know what I mean ) – right across the world.
Thank you! This is really good. Lets not just accept ever ythng without seeing the challenge to change it! We are not thermometers, but thermostats. I really liked this, tx lot,

“Ready yourself, here comes the Bride!” I’m seeing a Bride, completely in love with her bridegroom, eyes focused on Him and what He is doing, how He moves, how He speaks. She asks of her beloved, “My Lord, my love, what are YOU doing?” I see Him gather her into His arms and He sweeps her into a spin, they begin dancing together, so gracefully and lovingly. Moving across the entire dance floor, in waves (like a flood). Their hearts pounding strongly for one another, like lovers coming together for the first time.
He shouts to His groomsmen, prepare the wedding table, make ready for the feasts and the festivities, here comes My Bride.
She will take the world on like a storm!
Well said, Praying Medic. The Lord has been speaking to me recently about not allowing any fear to enter my heart (John 14:1; 14:27). Any “prophecy” that produces fear in the believer cannot be from God, for we would have to close our hearts to it, according to Jesus’ command. I believe the good news!
amen! This has spoken to a particular area of my life that i really needed!
I always cringe and tend to stay away from “end times” posts and the like, because they’re always doom and gloom.
I almost didn’t read yours… But I did.
Thank you for your kingdom perspective… It’s soo so refreshing!!!
Really enjoyed the post. I personally have not received anything but really perplexed by all the warnings on Tv Christian stations to buy gold, buy prepared foods and be ready. Many people are not being edify but are scared or are over reading what’s being said. My perspective on this is that I continue to have that Godly fear and interceding so the opposite happens. As scripture States no one knows the date and hour, it’s a clear principle. I do know God does speak when and to who He chooses. He is a Great God. It doesn’t matter what occurs, it’s the lives we reach now that’s important and we (believers) win at the end. One thing we can’t deny is the times were in! A few months back I was giving a short night dream. I was given a long scroll of paper. I stared at it and saw a pencil. I only knew somehow that It was being related “Changes was coming to the Laws”. The pencil meant it was man made where it could be changed because a pencil can erase but a pen is more permanent. New changes were coming. I see this to be true. I did not see the person but believe it was the Holy Spirit. I felt a Godly concern and never spoke in the short dream just knew. I pray we seek conformation as many just love the Lord so much, they are focusing on the rapture but my heart aches for my unsaved loved ones and the lost. It’s good to understand the signs of the times there’s such a mix view in kingdom things but we can’t deny that God still speaks. Many speak of huge floods but it can mean huge problems and to another huge disaster, yet to others judgment. They can be disturbing but thank God for the Holy Spirit who quiets the soul. Nice post! Shalom!
There are good men with good fruit who bring bad reports and keep a whole generation from experiencing the promised land of “in Christ.”
David, the Lord said to me a few days ago “a flood is coming”. This was before I heard any such rumors elsewhere. He said again, “I will shake the earth and the heavens”. Unsure of what He meant, I asked “what do you mean?” A planet hanging from my son’s ceiling fell, and then a star. “Do you mean the end is coming” I asked with hesitation, since I don’t really believe in most of what people teach about “the end”. Then the six foot world map fell off the wall.
Your challenge here led me to meet with a group of Spirit filled believers last night to pose the question to God “is this from you, or a deception; and if from you, what does it mean?” His answered to us was a message of believers praising and worshipping in the water of His Spirit, of His Spirit blowing on and moving dead and dry things (dead religion), We asked what we should be doing as His church, and He said “wait”, but stay “awake”, and praise and worship Him. This aligns with many things the Lord has been saying to me, as well as with His word. He also healed a lovely woman of trauma to her leg, back, shoulders, and wrist from falling down the stairs. Praise Jesus!
I do think there will be big things happening very soon, and am excited to see how the Lord will move in our generation.
I hope this is helpful in some way
A few thoughts: The Lord spoke to me in a dream on July 5 of last year saying, “The president has spoken, you have 1 year to prepare.” In the dream, 1) groups of my family (believers) were each working on various ideas, or business concepts, thinking out loud, sort of. When the President’s voice was heard, suddenly, these different groups were brought together to form creative, innovative, highly sought after businesses. 2) at the same time, there were these pods like embryos that had popped up and each one was in various stages of development. When the President’s voice was heard, they all immediately became fully developed & functioning entities or bodies walking around.
I do not know what The Lord has done since the dream, except that He has allowed some major cultural shifts to take place in this nation. He has been and is bringing together His people in new, unique & innovative ways. He has been preparing forerunners who will go before to help establish His body in this nation in a way it has never been before. He is and will be awakening the American church to His power & presence in ways this generation (or even the one before) has ever seen.
I think we should be careful to say He will not bring economic woes to this nation or any or call it “gloom & doom.” As a believer, I can trust Him to work all things together for my good and to lead me into the calling He has for me. 1) There is a time & purpose for all things under heaven, even war, hate, and devastation. 2) We should be ready & prepared to walk as many other believers in this world, under persecution and without every comfort or tech gadget available. 3) the Prophets of old are very specific: walk in obedience of The Lord, walk in His blessing; meaning, I can be blessed (Matt 5) & have joy (James 1) even in the “worst” of circumstances.
Finally, in a dream, The Lord took me and a few friends (all believers) on a field trip to an aquarium. As we walked up to one of the big glass windows, we saw all the oceans & coastlines of the world. Our guide began to show us how we could make waves and tsunamis; how we could send them back and forth across the oceans. As we joyfully played with the waves & tsunamis, we began to realize we could send them anywhere & to anyone we wanted, so we each began to call out different places & people…any we thought were dry & could use a good soaking. Given that we were all believers and we were not concerned in the least of the danger of these waves, I believe The Lord is saying we are being given authority to impart His Holy Spirit wherever we see a need. We need only to ask, or speak the word, and He will move Holy Spirit on our behalf.
Amen, AmandaB!
We have been through the flood. Two years ago I awoke to hear, “Pay attention to what is happening in the natural because it is indicative of what I plan to do.”
That day the towns where my brother and father lived and my son’s family lived were hit by flood -the biggest natural disaster in our country’s history. My brother was isolated in his neighbourhood by the rampaging Cougar Creek and cut off from his wife (working at the hospital) and father when bridges and the TransCanada hwy washed out (this is THE major road that links our country from one ocean to the other).
When our son said this I knew it was important: “Mom, the river changed course. The berms that were erected to protect the business section ended up holding the water in the residential areas.” There was no way for the flood water to escape. The sewers backed up and his house sat in a lake of stagnant sewage for 6 weeks.
I asked the Lord what he was saying, and I believe it is this: The berms you have erected around your denominations, meant to protect “the business” of churches and their distinctive neighbourhoods have isolated you from each other. Your connections, like the national highway, has been severed. The berms are like the rules and regulations that seemed like a good idea at the time are now impeding the flow of my spirit. This is going to change.
What has happened during the re-building process is the realization that governments and church and parachurch emergency services are very helpful but slow and cumbersome. Services were duplicated or overlooked. Some of the big name organizations disappear as soon as the story is out of the news. Most of the help came from friends and neighbours and family. Some people gave up and moved away. Some wanted more security and structure and turned to political and legal wrangling.
But some families just grew stronger. I am amazed at the spiritual insight our grandchildren have developed.
I had a dream before this event about a move of God amongst school children. It was followed by a flood which washed away old vehicles and old dead bushes and debris and broken sheds. Then I saw restored, previously broken and separated families re-shaping the landscape and planting full-grown trees that immediately produced fruit. There was a stream of fresh water flowing through this town.
I believe “the flood” is about restoration of the strength of unity in the family of God.
But I do not have any sense of the timing of this.
Recently the Lord said to our son, as he left his job as lead pastor at a church in the center of the flooded area: “You will never again lead an institution. You will only lead a family.”
God is one of restoration and redemption, amen! This is what I’m praying for and believing He, with the most perfect Father heart of all, desires to do. Our region is having its first prophetic roundtable in mid-September, so I’m believing its going to be a time orchestrated by God into awakening and revival for the destiny of our area and for many hearts!
So often people proclaim the negative, like weather FORECASTERS calling for storms, and to that I always say we should pray for the blessings to come and not agree with that which the enemy would want. Many a time in the last few months, for example, my hubby and I have said “no” to destructive weather being forecasted, and watched storms on the radar seem to be stopped by an invisible force field of sorts around our location and seen outside never get as bad as they said.
There is power in agreement and power in the words we speak! Just as God created the world with words, so we speak and affect things for good or for evil, for life or for death (Proverbs 18:22).
Amen Amanda! Heidi Baker spoke to two hurricanes off the coast of Mozambique and they turned away. It can be done. I am believing this for the dire forecasts of a devastating earthquake and tsunami into my West Coast.
And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. Daniel 11:32-33
Prophetically of the actual man empowered by the beast. Hence, in many cases on a lesser scale–and local–until the true actual event occurs.
‘he.’ National leadership, either political, theological, or both.
‘flatteries.’ Empty, though spoken, spiritually powerless words.
‘strong.’ Speaks of the condition of the heart. What one is, in essence.
‘do exploits.’ (‘exploits’ non-existent in Hebrew original) Accomplishment of spiritual things.
‘understand.’ Possessing intimacy with the One who knows all.
‘the people.’ Masses involving both types, Christian and potential Christian.
‘fall by the sword…flame…captivity…spoil.’ Persecution, pure and simple.
‘many days.’ ‘Day’ in Scripture often means year, see Ezekiel 4:6. Hence, ‘many years.’
Lesson to be learned: Daniel understood thru Scripture Jeremiah’s prophecy was coming to an end as the amount of pressure by Father upon His covenant people had brought about their change of heart in the time period prophecied. (One year for each cycle of seven years–70 for 490). Yet Daniel’s prayers of chapter nine had spiritual effect in this matter. The problem then, as it is today among God’s people, was a lack of intimacy…resting in God.
So do we have a Daniel in America or Canada today? They are being matured even now. Is judgment for America then over? Note the recent High Court decisions and and haughty attitude of those in authority, i.e. ‘the government is God.’
Mr. Obama is a fruit, not a root issue. The problem is our hearts, and therefore the only godly response is identificational repentance on behalf of ‘our sins,’ for ‘we have sinned, and committed iniquity in not adhering to Your judgments, statutes, and commandments.’ God will not be mocked. Sin is still sin, even in a season of mercy.
I prophesy that the flood that is coming our way is a tsunami of blessings. I truly believe that September will be a month of miraculous things that will take place in the lives of believers that have been patiently waiting for breakthroughs for a very long time.. We decree restoration in every area of our lives!!!
All I can say is that so far this August, God has removed many obstacles, and virtually everyone and thing I pray for works out, to His glory. He’s a crazy cool God we serve, eh?
