Vision Of The Today And Tomorrow

Mitt Jeffords
South Carolina

June 01, 2007

I woke up one morning and almost immediately my thoughts were given over
to much fear and anxiety concerning my present financial situation. I then
prayed and asked the Lord to help me believe that he was truly sovereign
over my finances. I also asked the Lord to deliver me from these tormenting
and troubling counsels of unbelief, doubt, and fear. I was in a great battle in
my mind, fighting against multitudes of lying counsels that were seeking to
overthrow my faith in the Lord. Satan was also continuously enticing me with
counsels that were tempted me to take control and become my own lord of
this matter, to taking it completely out of God’s hands. But after I
acknowledged the Lord’s sovereignty over my life and asked for him to help
me, he heard my prayer and came and quieted my soul. Then faith was
restored and peace returned to rule over my thoughts. Oh how wonderful it is
to know that he who has power to calm the winds also has power to calm the
storms in our mind.

II Corinthians 10:3-5 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the
flesh because the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through
God to the pulling down of strong holds and casting down imaginations, and
every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing
into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ (The Prince of Peace).

Matthew 7:24-25 Jesus said, “Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of


mine and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man who built his house
upon a rock: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds
blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not because it was founded upon a
rock”.

Mark 4:37-40 “And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into
the ship so that it was now full of water. And Jesus was in the hinder part of
the ship asleep on a pillow: and they awoke him saying, “Master, do you not
care that we are perishing?” And Jesus arose and rebuked the wind, and said
unto the sea, “Peace, be still”. And the wind ceased, and there was a great
calm. And then he said unto them, “Why are ye so fearful? How is it that you
have no faith?”

James 1:6-7 “But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavers is
like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed; for let not that man
think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord”.

Psalm 34:4 “I sought the Lord and he heard me, and delivered me from all my
fears”.

1
Then the next morning, as soon as I awoke, the same battle began to rage
again in the thoughts of my mind. But before I could get out bed to pray, and
worship the Lord by asking for him to help me, I heard the voice from the Lord
speaking to me that which is written Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren,
whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things
are just, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if
there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things”. I then
hesitated and considered the counsel in this word, but almost immediately the
attack in my mind started up again. I then realized that none of the thoughts
that attacking me in my mind had any agreement with those things spoken of
in Philippians 4:8. I then just laid there trying to resist any thoughts from
entering into my mind that were not true, or honest, or just, or lovely, or of a
good report.

It was then that the Lord gave to me this vision:

“I saw a woman that at first seemed like she was standing on top of a
large wagon; and she was leaning forward and cracking the whip over
a team of 7 horses, trying to get them to go as fast as they possibly
could. She held the reigns to all 7 horses in one hand and had the whip
in the other; and she never stopped using her whip. When I focused my
attention on this woman, I first noticed that she had a facial appearance
that was as ugly, as cruel, and as cold as a lot of the witches that I
have seen portrayed in cartoons and movies. She was also dressed
completely in black, from head to toe. It was then that I also noticed
that her attire was also exactly like the attire that you would expect to
see on a harlot, right down to the fishnet stockings; the only difference
being that she was not as colorful in clothing as prostitutes because
she was dressed in all black.

As I said, I had at first assumed that this woman was driving a team of
7 horses, but that was because of the large cloud of dust that was
being kicked up, I was only able to see seven heads. But when I had
time to consider more closely what I was seeing in this vision, I
suddenly realized that these were not horses at all, but rather they
appeared to be like some type of dragons; and I then realized that this
woman was not standing on top of a wagon, but she was standing on
the single body of dragon that had seven long-necked heads. It was
then that the vision ceased before my eyes.

I barely had time to rest from what I saw in this vision when suddenly the Lord
gave to me another vision.

In this vision I saw before me a large yard that greatly resembled that
which one might see at an old southern plantation. The yard was at
least 4 or 5 acres that gradually sloped down to a quiet peaceful cove
that was just off of a very large lake or the ocean. The yard was
covered with a beautiful lawn and it was completely covered with these
very large oak trees that wonderfully shaded the entire yard. I then saw
this beautiful woman who seemed to be in her middle 20’s, and she

2
was just sitting on the lawn leaning her back up against one of the
large oak trees. She was dressed in a long, white cotton or linen dress
and she also had on a large white floppy type of straw hat. She had the
most peaceful and contented countenance that I have ever seen on
anyone’s face. She was just sitting there with a very peaceable and
contented smile as she watched over 3 children that were playing
between her and the cove. She appeared to be a stark contrast of the
woman who was riding atop the beast.

When the vision was over, the Spirit of the Lord then quickened unto me that
the beast and the woman that I saw in the first vision was the same beast and
woman that rides the beast that is spoken of in Revelation 17:1-5. Then the
Lord reminded me the things that he had previously taught me about the two
wisdoms; the wisdom of this world, which dwells in the carnal mind, and the
wisdom of God, which dwells in the spiritual mind. This whorish wisdom is
always desirous to direct the souls of men into misery and death, while the
wisdom of God is brings forth peace and life.

James 3:13-18 “Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you?
Let him show out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
But if you have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and do not lie
against the truth; for this wisdom descends not from above, but is earthly,
sensual, and devilish. For where envying and strife are, there is confusion and
every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then
peaceable, gentle, and willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without
partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in
peace of them that make peace.

Ecclesiates 3:18 “I said in my heart, concerning the estate of the sons of


men, that God might manifest them and that they might see that they
themselves are beasts”.

Then the Spirit of the Lord brought into my remembrance a word that he had
spoken to Debbie, one of the women who I had once fellowshipped with:

“I desire to give to you the treasures of life; but you must first exchange
this hesitation and reserve, this lack of trust, this anxiety, and this fret
for my peace. Consider what the gift is that I have given unto you. Do
you no longer desire to be united to me in peace? Be assured that I
know all about you. I have seen the beast within you.

I have seen the doubt. I have seen the rage. I have seen the scorn and
the spite that you have for me. I have seen the bitterness and the evil
that you think of me. I have seen the fear in your heart. I have seen the
confusion of your own counsels. I have seen your lack of faith in me, as
well as all of your unbelief. I have seen the lack of love that you have
for me, as well as lack of loyalty. I have seen your lack of patience. I
have seen your depression.

3
Only I, the Lord your God, can tame this beast. Only through my love
for you will this beast be tamed. Be not afraid, for my love for you is
unconditional, and I am not offended by the beast within. I am here to
deliver you and set you free.

But you have not received my love, for you have set aside my word,
the very word that reveals everything that I said that my word could do
for you. You did not believe me when I said, “I will give you assured
peace in this place. I am asking you again to believe. I am asking you
to set aside the pride, the hurt feelings, the fear of rejection, and the
fear of suffering. Let your heart be broken (as a wild horse is broken).
Let your feelings suffer. Let your mind go. Only trust in me. I am the
one who will carry you through your trials. I do not allow for you to go
through these trials to harm you, but rather to save you from your own
self, from the counsels of the beast that dwells within you.”

Then the Lord said to me that the seven heads of the dragons are seven lying
spirits that Satan sends to in his attempts to turn our hearts away from the
Lord: rebellion, fear, scorn, pride, doubts, unbelief, and confusion; and the
desire to believe anyone of these counsels comes forth from the wisdom of
this world.

I then asked, “Lord, why was this woman dressed in the attire of what
appeared to be both a witch and a harlot?” And the Lord answered me and
said, “Because she is the wisdom of man that both seeks to seduce and
bewitch men with counsels that lead my people away from me”.

James 1:14 “Every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own
desires and enticed. And when desire has conceived, it brings forth sin; and
when sin is finished it brings forth death (the miserable thoughts of the carnal
mind)”.

I Timothy 4:1 “Now the Spirit speaks expressly that in the latter days, some
shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of
devils”.

Then I asked, “Lord, where is this woman racing to get to as fast as she
possibly can?”

The Lord answered and said, “Tomorrow; for tomorrow is that place that I
have given instruction to my people not go; for did I not say, “Take no
thought for tomorrow”. I am the God of today and the God of now. Today is
the day that my peace will rule in your heart and now is the place of my
presence. My peace rules in the now; my peace does not rule over the
imaginations that yearn to take you into tomorrow. Tomorrow is a place of fear
and dread, a place of anxiety and worry, a place of unfulfilled and failed
expectations and dreams; and a place of uncertainty. Tomorrow is the place
where Satan loves to torment and trouble with thoughts of “worst case
scenarios”. I am with you now, at this very moment, and I yearn to give to you
life to you now; the abundant life that you desire. How can I give you life today

4
when you are seduced and bewitched to follow after those counsels which
lead you into tomorrow? In my presence is the life that you desire, and my
presence can only be found today, not in tomorrow.

Matthew 6:34 “Therefore take no thought for tomorrow: for tomorrow shall
take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof”.

James 4:13-17 “Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to
such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit"; but
you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a
vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Instead you ought
to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.” But now you boast
in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. He that knows to do good, and
does not do it, to him it is sin”.

Tomorrow is that place where the unbelievers, the fearful, the disobedient, the
proud, the doubters, and those who have no hope that they can find any life in
today are enticed to go to, Many come tomorrow because they are hoping
that they will find a better day and a better life than that which they are
experiencing today. The truth is that tomorrow is nothing but a lying illusion, a
mirage of dreams, expectations, and plans that appear in the imaginations to
keep one from going mad today. All who surrender to believe these illusions
about tomorrow will only find that when tomorrow comes, they are still
hopeless in today and hoping that tomorrow will be a better day. I do not rule
in tomorrow” says the Lord. “I rule in today, in the now, and in the present.

Proverbs 27:1 “Do not boast about tomorrow because you do not know what
a day may bring forth”.

Those who walk in faith and believe my word resist the imaginations that
tempt them into going into tomorrow because they are finding life in today. I
am faithful and true to all those who have asked for and received my wisdom
to believe and hold to my words. I have been waiting patiently in the NOW;
waiting for my people to come believing that I ready to fulfill my promise of life
today. This whorish wisdom also waits for my people; always waiting at the
very beginning of the day to take them into tomorrow. It is when my people
are overcome in these temptations that the true nature of the beast is
revealed; and that nature is the death that inhabits the carnal mind. Only the
light of my life is able to reveal the truth about that nature that is hides in the
secret places of the heart and in the dark places of the mind. It is only when
the soul of a man believes and yields to the desires of this worldly wisdom
that authority and power is given to her rule over the beast with all kinds of
imaginations that bring forth either fear, or confusion, or worry, or depression,
or scorn, or unbelief, or stress, or failure, or despair, or anxiety, or evil
suspicions, or uncertainty, and many other such like thoughts that only death
in those who receive and believe her counsels. She races to bring the souls of
men into that place of tomorrow; that place where she rules over the thoughts
of those she hates with misery and torment. Tomorrow is that place where the
wisdom of this world sits as a queen over the kings of your heart, ruling over
them with unrest, strife, and trouble.

James 314-16 “If you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not
boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above,
but is earthly, sensual, and demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist,
confusion and every evil work are there”.

Jeremiah 4:22 “For my people are foolish because they do not know me; they
are senseless children and they have no understanding. They are wise to do
evil, but to do good, they have no knowledge”.

I then said, “Lord, I suppose that this woman who was so contented in this
other vision represents the wisdom of God?”

Proverbs 8:12 “I, wisdom, (wisdom is now speaking) dwell with prudence
and I find out the knowledge of witty inventions…34 Blessed is the man who
hears me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the post of my doors. For
whoso finds me, finds life; and obtains favor of the Lord; but he that sins
against me wrongs his own soul. All they that hate me love death (the
thoughts of the carnal mind)”.

James 3:17-18 “But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then
peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without
partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in
peace by those who make peace”.

I Corinthians 1:30 “But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us
wisdom from God…”

Then Lord then answered and said, “Today, I yearn to give to you life; I
greatly desire to favor you with abundant life, a life that is far above anything
that can come into your imaginations; but I am only able to show such favor to
those who believe on my words; to those who seek for me today, putting no
hope in tomorrow. Today I desire to freely and liberally give to you my
wisdom. For just as this woman you saw in this vision, my wisdom is first
peaceable, never racing to take you away to another time but gives to you life
now. For my wisdom keeps you in my presence, and my presence brings
today into the NOW. My wisdom never focuses on the cares and the troubles
of this present evil world, but her focus is always on me. My wisdom is the
principle thing; that is, she always has me first in her heart and she delights in
me. She is a loving and caring spirit; gentle, humble, kind, and she always
brings with her the good fruits of life: joy, quietness, faith, love, contentment,
and patience. Those who seek her early shall not see any great travail in
today. My wisdom watches over you and she is well able to keep you from the
temptations of this great whore that seeks to seduce, to flatter, and to bewitch
you with her lies about tomorrow.

Even to this day, this today, this present time, it is still as it is written in
Deuteronomy 30:19
“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before
you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both you

6
and your seed may live”. How hard is it for you to make a choice? Are you
afraid to ask of me to give you life today? This day, I have set before you life
and death; that is, I have set before you a choice between the wisdom that
dwells in the carnal mind or the wisdom that comes from above; the wisdom
that gives life to the spiritually minded. I have given a choice unto you this day
to see whose counsels you are going to choose to believe and serve. If you
choose to believe the counsels of that come forth from the wisdom of this
world, then death shall surely follow after you: trouble, uncertainty, worry,
bitterness, misery, stress, depression, confusion and unrest. If you choose not
to believe that I am willing to freely give unto you my wisdom, then I swear
you shall not find any rest because you have put a stop to the river of life that
flows from my heart. If you do not ask for my wisdom today, then the wisdom
of this world shall quickly take your heart captive to those places where
darkness and death reign. If you choose life for this day, then ask for me to
give unto you my wisdom; the wisdom that is freely given to those who ask for
it. If you delight in me, then I shall give unto you the life that your heart so
desires. Those who walk in my wisdom are those who choose to walk in my
presence”, says the Lord. “I am life”.

Romans 8:5 (AMP) “For those who are according to the flesh and are
controlled by its unholy desires set their minds on and pursue those things
which gratify the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit and are
controlled by the desires of the Spirit set their minds on and seek those
things which gratify the [Holy] Spirit. Now the mind of the flesh [which is sense
and reason without the Holy Spirit] is death [death that comprises all the
miseries arising from sin, both here and hereafter]. But the mind of the [Holy]
Spirit is life and [soul] peace [both now and forever].

Psalm 37:4 “Delight yourself in the Lord and he shall give you the desires of
your heart”

Stir yourself up and let not your heart forget that I am the God of today and
now, and not the god of tomorrow. My wisdom is as river of living water that
flows continually from me in the hearts and the minds of all those who ask for
her. Today, my wisdom thinks on those things which are true. Today, my
wisdom thinks on those things which are honest. Today, my wisdom thinks on
those things which are just. Today, my wisdom thinks on those things which
are pure. Today, my wisdom thinks on those things which are lovely. Today,
my wisdom thinks on those things which are of a good report. Today, my
wisdom thinks only on those which pertain to life. Today, my wisdom is as a
river of abundant life that is ready to flow from my heart into your heart; a river
that flows anew every day with life. My wisdom does not wait until tomorrow to
think on these things.

II Timothy 1:6 “Wherefore I put you in remembrance that you stir up the gift of
God…”

Today, the wisdom of this world is ready to worry and stress about tomorrow.
Today, the wisdom of this world is ready to fill your thoughts with fearful and
terrifying things. Today, the wisdom of this world is ready to bring forth

7
reasons for you to hate and to scorn. Today, the wisdom of this world desires
to work sin and iniquity. Today, the wisdom of this world is ready to bring you
into confusion. Today, the wisdom of this world is ready to judge, to accuse, to
find fault with, and to condemn others. Today, the wisdom of this world is
ready to fill the thoughts of your heart with doubts and unbelief. Today, the
wisdom of this world is ready to overflow your thoughts with anxiety and
impatience, as well as any other thought that brings unrest. Today, the
wisdom of the world is ready to entice you to walk in the way that seems right;
the way that only ends in death and destruction. Today, the wisdom of this
world, being allied with Satan’s lies, is ready to deceive you, to lead you
astray, to turn you away from the my presence. Today, the wisdom of this
world is ready to alienate you from life. Today, the wisdom of this world is
ready to glorify and exalt “self”. Do you not believe that I am sovereign over
this earthy, lusty, and devilish wisdom? Have I not asked you to allow for me
to show you my judgment of this great whore? Did I not reveal my judgment
against this whorish wisdom when I declared through my prophet Isaiah
(29:14), “Behold, I will do a marvelous work; a marvelous work and a wonder.
I will destroy the wisdom and the wise and bring to nothing the understanding
of the prudent”. Do you not believe that out of my love for you that I would not
destroy for you this wisdom that comes forth only to bring death, separation,
and misery upon you? I love you.

Revelation 17:1 “And there came one of the seven angels which had the
seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, “Come here; I will show unto
you the judgment of the great whore that sits upon many waters….18:4-8
“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her my people
so that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her
plagues; for her sins have reached unto heaven, and God has remembered
her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her
double according to her works: in the cup which she has filled fill to her
double. How much she has glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much
torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am
no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one
day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with
fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her”.

I Corinthians 1:18 “For the message of the cross (daily cross) is foolishness
to them who are perishing, but unto us who are being saved, it is the power of
God. For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and bring to
nothing the understanding of the prudent”.

Matthew 25:1-2 Jesus said, “The kingdom of heaven is like ten virgins which
took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them
were wise, and five were foolish.

It is now about the fifth morning since the Lord gave me this vision, and every
morning since then the Lord has allowed for me to ask for his wisdom within
just a minute or two after my awakening, crying out, “Lord, desire your life
today”; and he came instantly. But this morning when I awoke, I realized that I
did not feel like there was any presence of the wisdom of this world trying to

8
take me away, but neither did I feel like there was any presence of the Lord
with me either. Even though I did not have any thoughts pressing into me, I
still called out on the Lord, asking for his wisdom; and almost immediately I
felt the Lord’s presence come upon me as well as affection for the Lord and
all things that pertain to the Lord. Glory be to our God for his faithfulness and
love.

Then the Lord gave me a vision and I saw in highway that seemed to
be weaving itself up a mountain. In the middle of this highway, I saw an
old style suitcase that seemed to be at least 30 or 40 years old
because it was covered in a real fine burlap. I discerned that this
suitcase had been much used because there were a several places on
it that seemed to be worn out; worn out similar to how a pair of jeans
will wear out in the knees.

I was considering what this suitcase represented when the Lord spoke to me
and said, “You have my treasure in earthen vessels”. I knew that the treasure
was the Lord’s wisdom and that the earthen vessel was this old suitcase; or
rather, this old body of death. Then the Lord said, “Though the world sees that
which is old and worn, I see that which is within. I see that by reason of my
wisdom within you, you have walked the highway that I have set before you.
This highway, though it has many twists and turns to is, represents the strait
and narrow path that all who desire life must journey on; it is the one that
leads to life. This is the highway that you have journeyed on as you have
sought for life; the life that comes to all those who desire to know me. The
reason that I have used this old suitcase to represent your earthen vessel is
because it shows that by reason of my wisdom within you, you have been
willing to journey as you have followed after me. Regardless of where my
Spirit has led, you have followed me. Truly, that which a man treasures are
those things which his heart highly esteems and values.

Romans 11:33-36 “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and his ways past
finding out! For who has known the mind of the Lord?”

II Corinthians 4:6-7 “For God, who commanded the light to shine out of
darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the
glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ; and we have this treasure in
earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and
not of us”.

I am the life that is the hidden treasure in your heart. My wisdom loves me
and delights in doing my will; and I know that you have sought for my wisdom
because of your desire to love me and to do my will. I know that you have
loved me because you have laid down the treasures that are of this world; the
wisdom that only has affections and desires for “self”. I am the wisdom that
loves our heavenly Father, and I have no desire within me to go a whoring
after the treasures of this world. Out of affection, I am always mindful of those
things which please our heavenly Father. Our Father has made me to be

9
wisdom for you so that you also may be made to be partakers of the love that
our heavenly Father has for you”.

Again, I have made you free so that you are now free to make your own
choice: either choose this day to be the Beauty or choose to be the Beast.
