what is a vision?
Women Warriors – Visions & Dreams
What is a vision? Is it a literal open door that sucked you into a realm you’ve never been or seen before? Is it an impression or a supernatural understanding of things to come? Is it something you see with your mind’s eye that causes you to believe it’s a rare gift given to your thoughts by the presence of God?Whatever it may be to you, visions and dreams are amazingly real. They truly are supernatural. There are dreams from God and there are dreams from your psyche. Knowing the difference comes from walking with the Holy Spirit, and is a special gift from God. They put us in a frame of thought that we had not been in or experienced before.
God is not slack in communicating with His people. He always gets His point across, especially if you truly open to Him speaking to you. These visions shared on this page by some of the Blog’ettes and myself, Judy Block, are a wonderful gift to us from God, and they are about women.Read More…
I believe God wants to inspire us in our walk with Him and the calling on our lives.
God has a purpose for each one of us. In that purpose He has a plan. In that plan is a gifting, a talent, and an ability that He has creatively released into your DNA. It is something He gave to you for a reason. He created you to not only use it, but to enjoy it! For that reason, it will bring Him great pleasure and glory to see you fulfilled in your purpose and calling.
The Reward! When you pursue that ability, He will bless you in it. He will cause an increase in that ability, that gifting, that talent, that thing that is in your heart that you know you were meant to do. Not only will He cause an increase in your gifting, but He will cause an increase in the Anointing you have.
Yes! I said He will cause an increase in the Anointing you have. What is the Anointing? The Anointing is the manifested presence of the Holy Spirit. His presence in and on your life becomes more tangible, more stronger, and more real. And with an increase of God’s Holy Spirit Anointing comes an increase in your authority. It’s only natural for His presence, His love, and His anointing to increase in your life as you pursue Him.
“God rewards those who diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6
As you read these visions, put yourself in them. And ask God, how can I be a blessing to you? He loves you so much. He will show you.
Dream of The Father’s Gift
Judy Block Experience God’s Presence
Habakkuk 2:2 “Write the vision, and make it a clear path to follow.”
I recently had a very cool dream. In it I was a little girl, probably about 8 years old, and I was standing next to my Dad. We were both all dressed up. I had on a dress my Mother had sown for me for a piano recital, and my Dad had on a nice black suit and tie. My Dad handed me a gift. It was a toy bow and arrow set! I remember I was thrilled and could not wait to go out and shoot it! So I took it out of the package, and quickly ran outside to shoot it.
Then the dream changed. I was now an adult. I was standing at the front tip of a line of women, forming a giant arrowhead. We were all dressed in beautiful out of the ordinary clothes. They were similar to clothes women wore in the middle ages, like royalty and with beautiful crowns on our heads. We all had a real bows and arrows in our hands. Simultaneously we all raised them up. Read More…
The dream changed again. There was a big red stained wall made of wood. It reminded me of what the side of a barn looks like. The Lord does have a sense of humor, you know. I shot my arrow first, it had flames on it and it hit the barn wall. The flames burst onto the wall. Then all the other arrows hit the wall as well and the whole wall went up into flames!
The interpretation: Like my earthly father, my Heavenly Father has given me a special gift, one that I am thrilled with and am excited to use. It’s a gift many women have. The arrows represent the word of God being sent out for others to receive. The fire on the arrows represent the fire of God’s Holy Spirit, His presence and His Anointing! The red barn wall leads me to believe it will not be hard to hit the mark! With this gift I can make a difference, but with others with me we can make a huge difference!

The Journey of a Bride
“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
These words were penned from the wisest man in scripture, and the one who asked God for wisdom to lead His people…Solomon. He was a prophet in his own time. But Solomon, unaware, was actually prophesying to future generations as well. He was prophesying to us. He was releasing a word into the atmosphere for an appointed time and purpose.This word has been resonating in my spirit recently, and I understand we, as women of God, are in an appointed time, and we have a designated purpose at this time. As women of God, our purpose is to arise from the ‘status quo’ and be about our Father’s business! While men have always been recognized as leaders, this has not been the norm for women. But the times, they are a’changing! Read More…
God has always desired men and women to work side by side to advance the kingdom, and we are just catching a glimpse of what this looks like. God created Eve out of the side of man, and then along with Adam “He blessed them, and said, ‘Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, and subjugate it [putting it under your power]…’” (Genesis 1:28 AMP) God spoke this blessing over both of them!
There is a new breed of women arising today; those that are taking their marching orders from the King of Kings; they know who they are, and whose they are. They are learning how to represent Him rightly, and are taking their cue from women like Esther, who saved her whole people group by leaning into God and following His instructions. These women understand, like Ruth, there is a divine providence leading them to their place and calling, regardless of where they come from. They can see that like Mary, they are appointed to birth something into the earth that will change society.
This new breed of women warriors are unlike anything we have seen or heard in the past. They are rising from the dust of the earth, an insignificant status, to display His love and power to the seven mountains of society. They are the missing link. If you are reading this, you are part of the missing link!
These women warriors will carry the fragrance of Jesus that will strike fear in the enemy. They will be wise as a serpent and gentle as a dove. They will have great discernment for each and every situation. They will get their marching orders directly from the Almighty, and will carry an anointing of the Holy Spirit that will break bondages and yokes. These women warriors will be a mighty force because they will live and move and have their being in HIM!
Some will move ‘under the radar’ like 007…a secret agent. Others will be like a city set on a hill, for all to see. Regardless of their position in the army, they will move with confidence because they have the leadership, the specific call, and the assurance of the Lord of Hosts!
If you’re still reading this, you are one of these women warriors! Yes, that is God speaking to you. You are significant in this end-time army. What is YOUR place in the end-time army?
I am excited to be a part of this army, and honored to be able to share this platform of encouragement and hope to women in all walks of life. Part of my assignment is to see women come into the fullness of their calling, and I look forward to an interactive relationship with those of you who have found us on this webpage Judy & the Blog’ettes. You are the reason this webpage was created; the women warriors and end-time Bride of Christ. And HE is the reason for it all! Blessings!

AWAKEN to CHANGE
One day in a prayer meeting with a couple of friends I had a vision.I found myself instantly in a barren, desolate land. Everywhere I looked, the landscape was black and dreary. There was nothing of color. The ground had large cracks in it as if it had not seen rain in a very long time. There was no sign of life anywhere. There were only dead trees and large boulders and utter barrenness.
I looked down and in my hands was a large sword. I was not surprised to see the heavy object in my hands for some reason and I intuitively knew what to do with it. I took hold of the hilt with both hands with the blade pointing down. Then I raised it up above my head and quickly plunged it down with great force into the ground.
The moment the sharp point of the sword went into the earth there was a spark of light. Read More…
The light then exploded upward and outward as if it were a bomb going off. I continued holding the sword that was still plunged into the ground. As I watched the explosion of light that came off the sword, the light and the power within it began racing across the dry, parched land. As soon as it touched the ground something began happening. I was in the center of this light and power with the sword and the effect of the sword was radiating out around me in a circle touching every place of desolation. It was like watching a movie where special effects would be used to change the landscape from one thing to another. I could see the plume of power and light racing from the center point of the sword outwards and the instant the plume hit the ground everything changed. The dark black and cracked ground instantly changed into green lush vegetation. Where there had been desolation and dead trees or rocks it was instantly changed as the rush of power ran past. Life and color began springing forth immediately. The complete landscape was changed instantly as this light touched it.
Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, “This is what is coming. There is coming a time when what you speak will change things instantly.”
A sword is an offensive and a defensive weapon. It is also an emblem of authority and power. The Word of God is called the Sword of the Spirit. It has power when we wield it correctly. However, there is coming a day unlike what we have ever seen. There is coming a day where our words, under the authority of the Holy Spirit will wield power unlike any time in history.
God is preparing a remnant now for a day of His coming power. This will be greater than what was seen at Pentecost and greater than what the Apostles walked in. And yes, even greater than what Jesus walked in. He said, “Whoever believes in me will do even greater things.” Honestly, we have not seen that yet. But I know with everything in me that we are standing at the precipice of the greatest outpouring of the Spirit of God that we have ever seen or heard about. I am ready to see our words completely change the landscape. To completely change a family, a city, a nation, a world.
It’s time to get ready. It’s time to be prepared to walk in the greater things. Dare to believe that God wants to include you in this greatest hour in the history of mankind. Get ready to change the world.

Engaging the Light
“HE WILL PROTECT YOU WHERE HE LEADS YOU”
I had an encounter a few years ago but I believe it is a NOW word! I was running through a very dense forest and I was dressed as one who would have participated in the early Olympics… white tunic dress, brown leather sandals that laced up the leg. I had a quiver strapped to my back full of arrows and abow in my hand. I saw many weapons strapped around my waist as well! There were many obstacles in my path but I never missed a beat as I cleared them with ease!
“But his bow remained firm, and his arms were agile, from the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob (From there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Israel).” Genesis 49:24

“YOU ARE NEVER ALONE”
Suddenly others began to come out of the trees onto the path and they too were dressed in the same manner as I and were loaded to the hilt with weapons! We were all running with the speed and agility that would far surpass any movie with the best special effects! Our gaze was fixed and our feet were sure!
“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand”Isaiah 41:10
“TRUST HIM TO LEAD YOU”
The song, Spirit Lead Me, by Hillsong was playing and the lyrics were reverberating deep within my being! At the time of this encounter I had not heard this song. The lyrics talk about trusting the Lord to take you deeper, trust Him without borders! TRUST Him to lead you where He wants to take you!“The Deep to deep calls The Voice to the voice of the waters of your fountains. All your storms and your waves passed over me.” Psalm 42:7
“HE WILL STRIKE FEAR IN THE HEART OF YOUR ENEMY “
I was made very aware that all my senses were engaged and highly active! I could smell the salty air and knew we were near the ocean even though I didn’t see it! I could feel fear but it was not coming from within; it was coming from the enemies we were pursuing! I could not yet see the enemy but I could feel their fear! “I will send my terror ahead of you and create panic and all the people whose lands you invade. I will make all your enemies turn and run.”Exodus 23:27
“STAND STILL AND SEE THE SALVATION OF THE LORD”
Suddenly I was aware that the enemy had stopped and as we came into a clearing, I saw why… They had run straight into an enormous rock wall and had nowhere to run and nowhere to hide! I and those with me stood there taking in this scene and I asked the Lord what we were to do and He said, “Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!” Suddenly a bright light like a laser radiated forth from our chests and then a bright flash of light culminated and hit the enemy and disintegrated them at once!“Fear not: stand still and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will work for you today; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen today, ye shall never see them again.”Exodus 14:13
