About God's Elias

 My personal journey

I was born and raised in Douglas County Missouri. I spent countless nights with my uncle Otis Davis, my dad ‘s brother, who shared stories that would forever shape my life’s journey. One particular story that stands out a testament to the spiritual legacy that has guided me from a very young age, according to my uncle, my mother attended a revival meeting while she was pregnant with me, During the revival she felt the conviction of the Holy Spirit and accepted salvation in that moment the spirit of God first entered my life, even before I took my first breath. When I turned four years old, I vividly remember asking the Lord to calm the wind so I could play outside, with childlike faith I looked up to the heavens, and pleaded for a gentle breeze though the wind continued to blow. My small prayer marked the beginning of a lifelong conversation with God. As a small boy, I often accompanied my dad raccoon hunting, one dark night while we were hunting our dog treed leading us to a hilltop, as we climbed to the top, the atmosphere suddenly changed, and the hilltop was bathed in an intense otherworldly light it startled my dad, quickly he decided we should retreat as we made our way back down the hill, when we reached the bottom my dad confessed that he had never witnessed anything like that before. Years later when I turned sixteen years old history repeated itself, while sitting on a hillside in a field around dark with a friend, a ball of light came to us, it past in front of us then curved around behind us the light turned into a doorway there was fog coming out of it, my friend asked me what are we going to do, I said I don’t know about you, but I’m getting out of here. My friend and I took off in a sprint, my friend claimed that the light followed us, but I didn’t dare look back, I managed to outrun my friend, but that experience left a lasting impact. Years later when I turned eighteen, I began attending a Pentecostal church. It was there that I had a profound spiritual experience, accepting salvation, and being baptized in the river. This marked a significant turning point in my life as it deepened my faith and connection with God. Later on, one day while fishing with my little brother Wayne on Indian Creek, I spotted a unique staff like tree growing on the bank. I felt a sudden sense of reverence and said Well look there the Lord has given me a holy stick. I cut it down and took it with me, later on I asked the Lord why did you choose a paw paw tree for my staff his response was both surprising and profound. I am the grandfather of all nations. I was taken back thinking to myself. That’s strange little did I know this moment marked the beginning of a deeper understanding of my faith and connection with the divine. Years ago, I had purchased 40 acres of land from my dad, and built a house on it; however, he did not provide me with the official papers, one day he sold the land without my knowledge or consent, feeling lost and betrayed. I retreated to the woods near Indian Creek where I lived for two years. One winter day in January 1980, I found myself on the banks of the Norfork river having gone without food for three days. The snow had partially melted, revealing a small spot on the riverbank as I stood on the bank, scanning the water for fish. A red-tailed hawk caught my attention. It was screaming at me repeatedly, as if trying to communicate, something suddenly the hawk dove down into the water emerging with a largemouth bass. It dropped the fish beside me on the bank as the hawk emerged, from the water the droplets, clinging to its feathers sparkled like diamonds in the sunlight it took flight, soaring up the hollow its piercing scream, echoing through the air as it vanished into the distance. When I turned twenty-one years old, I found myself in another desperate situation. I had gone without food for five days, it was then that I had another profound encounter with the Lord, this time he called me by my name, I responded. Yes, Lord, he instructed me to lie down, close your eyes and clear your mind, and do not open your eyes. I obeyed, and the Lord placed his hands in my mouth. I felt an extraordinary sensation as if his power was coercing through my flesh. He then removed one of my teeth. I opened my eyes to see him. He said I thought I told you not to open your eyes. I said yes, Lord, but you took one of my teeth out he asked me who am I? I said you are the Lord, he told me again to close my eyes and clear my mind, this time don’t open your eyes, so I did, he took the same tooth out, I opened my eyes real fast trying to see him. He knew I was trying to see him. He knew what I was thinking. He knows all things, then he asked me again to close my eyes and clear my mind. This time, he took three teeth out. It felt funny. I opened my eyes real fast, still trying to see him again. He said I thought I told you not to open your eyes. He knew I was trying to see him, I said, but Lord, you took three of my teeth out, he said who am I? I said you are the Lord. He asked me again to close my eyes and clear my mind. This time he knew I knew there was no use to open my eyes. So, I decided to see what he wanted with me. He then asked me if I thought he made the hawk catch that fish. I said to him no one else can tell a bird what to do, he asked me who am I? I said you are the Lord. He asked me again to close my eyes and clear my mind, so I did this time. He showed me my whole life up to the age of sixteen at the start of the vision, I was teaching my baby sister to walk. She was eight or nine months old. I was a very small boy. He showed me things that only I knew about. I knew it had to be God. I sat up and started crying still I was in a state of visions. he said who am I? I said you are the Lord. He then showed me a black bear chasing me. The first time when I saw the bear, I was running as fast as I could from the bear. The second time I looked back at the bear it was gaining on me. It had its mouth open, and its teeth were shining, and it was slobbering, trying to bite me in the back, I had an arch in my back, and I was trying to get away. The third time I looked back the bear was gone. I have since learned that the vision meant to flee from sin. He then showed me a man hanging on a cross dead with dried blood in his hair, it looked like you had beaten him with a rock. He was black and blue all over it looked like he had been rolled in the dirt. It was very hard to look at. I told him if I would have been there, I would have killed those people, I asked him, why did you let them do you like that? All he said was who am I? I said you’re the Lord. He then showed me a bowl of blue liquid. It looked like Jell-O moving around in it. About two years later I had a load of wood on a one-ton truck. I was with one of my friends, we broke down. We had broken an axle. We had to unload part of the wood. It was very hot that day. We had two one-gallon jars. One had grape Kool-Aid, and one had chainsaw gas. Both of the jars were blue. My friend started to take a drink of what he thought was Kool-Aid, but it was the gas, I knocked it out of his hands. It landed right side up, the gas was moving around like the blue liquid, I knew what I had seen in the visions God had shown me, then the Lord took me in spirit to the mountains with him, he laid me on a stone altar. There were big white rocks around us. And there was brown dirt on the ground. The Lord was standing on the right side of me, his clothes were as white as snow, he had a shining sword in his hands, I rolled my head to the left looking down the blade of the sword its gleaming shine was very bright, I then rolled my head back to the right, I saw his hands fixed on the sword, I was wondering what he was gonna do with it, about that time he raised it up my eyes followed the length of his arms as he raised the sword, I saw the whites of his eyes intensify as he prepared to strike. I closed my eyes real tight, when I opened them, I felt of my neck, I was looking for blood there weren’t none. I asked why did you do that? He said I am proud you would give me your life like that. I said yes, my Lord. He then asked me again who am I? I said you are Jesus Christ. I then stood up and started praying with him. He seemed as big as a mountain in front of me. I then felt two drops of liquid drip on the top of my head. I thought the roof was leaking. I looked up. It was not leaking. I felt the top of my head and looked at my hand. It was dry. The liquid was running down the back of my head. It was very hot. It went down to my hairline, then it seeped into my neck, I began to swallow it. I felt it go straight into my heart; it tasted like alcohol and medicine mixed. I fell to the floor. I could not get my breath. It had knocked the breath out of me. I felt very strange, like I had pins and needles stuck all in my body. Finally, I started to get my breath back. I was turning blue. I was too weak to stand up. I was like a newborn baby calf wobbling, I asked the lord what are you doing to me? He said I have anointed your head, I said anointed my head, he said yes. I asked what for, he said you are a minister now, I said no I am not, He said yes you are, I said no I am not, He said yes you are, I said no I am not, you can kill me. I won’t do it. He said yes you will. I said no I won’t. He said yes you will. I said no I won’t. I don’t know how he said I will teach you. I said you will have to because I don’t know nothing, I then asked why don’t you get someone who knows big words, someone who has been to college, he said I don’t want someone who has been to college, I don’t want someone who knows big words, I want someone a little child can understand, he asked me. Do you know any big words? I said no he said that’s why I have chosen you I said but Lord, I don’t know nothing he said I will teach you. He then told me he was going to give me a new name that kind of made me happy, so I asked him what it was? He told me to lie down, close my eyes and clear my mind so I did. He showed me a capital letter E by itself and then an L and then and I and then an A and then an S. So, I laid there for a while waiting for him to tell me my new name. He did not say anything to me, after a while I raised up and asked him what is my new name he said what did I just show you? I said you showed me an E an L an I an A and an S. but I want to know my new name he said what does that spell I wrote it down on a piece of paper like this E-L-I-A-S he said that is your new name that kind of made me happy getting a new name from God he then told me now listen you are anointed. You are a minister. You are higher than any priest on earth. You are a prophet. You have the rock. And your name is Elias I said, but Lord, I don’t know anything. He said I will teach you. He then told me I would have hundreds and thousands of followers, I asked him. Why would they follow me? He told me you will lead them to Christ. I asked him where he would be? He did not answer me. I have learned to lead them in spirit and in prayer I also asked him who do I tell the people you are, he said tell them I am who I am have sent me, I said you know they are not going to believe in me, he said it is not for them to believe in you, your job is to build me up in them I said but lord I don’t know anything, he said I will teach you, then he told me there would be twelve angels accompany me in the churches I asked him what for he said to protect me. He said if anyone becomes a threat or tries to harm me, he would destroy them. Now you can listen to the song I am who I am. Also, the Elijah revival album. God showed me my music in dreams. Read Malachi chapter four verses five and six. My Lord said he would send you Elijah before the great and dreadful day of our lord. My music will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. My story is true.
