“A large house and young people in their 30s attending a Bible study” – A dream was given to Ben Martin

“A large house and young people in their 30s attending a Bible study” – A dream was given to Ben Martin
As I (Steve Martin) sat in the “Martin Museum” (garage) around 6:00 am on Friday, Sept. 23, 2022, I heard Ben in the kitchen. I said, “Good morning, Ben” so he could hear me.
He stuck his head in the door and said, “I didn’t know if you were praying or sleeping and didn’t want to disturb you.” (I was reading the Bible where Yeshua (Jesus) in Matthew 18 was speaking to the disciples about the Sadducees and the Pharisees, and to be aware of their leaven. He was also telling them how He was preparing to go to Jerusalem, knowing He was going to be crucified.)
He said he had a dream, which he also said he had not had a good dream in a long time.
He saw us in a big house, two stories tall, and many young people in their 30’s were in it, listening to me teach from the Bible. One said to the effect, “It is good to hear your Dad teach. We like it.”
There were about 30 people and they slept on the floor and all about.
The large house was also connected to a tree house, where they could go back and forth.
End of dream.
I asked him later to write it down so he would remember what the Lord was telling him.
Special Note: May this indeed happen as the Lord Jesus (Yeshua) moves on the hearts of the next generation to hear the Lord and give their hearts to Him!

Author Lee Grady believes the best day of his life was when he received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. At 18 years old, Lee didn't even know what a "charismatic" was, but he encountered one in his Southern Baptist Sunday school teacher. June Leverette experienced the power of the Spirit in her own life and led Lee closer to receiving the baptism for himself.
Turning to John 7, "she said, 'There's more. There's something more. There's more than just salvation,'" Lee said in a podcast celebrating the recent release of his new book, Set My Heart on Fire: Ignite Your Confidence, Boldness, and Passion for God. "I didn't know that. I thought Jesus was it. I thought you just tried real hard to be a good Christian for the rest of your life until you die. I didn't know there was something that could spring up inside of you and refresh you and become like a river that would flow out to other people."
At Thursday evening's gathering at the Charisma Media offices in Lake Mary, Florida, Lee shared his testimony of Spirit baptism from the mid-'70s, when the charismatic movement was going strong and Steve Strang started Charisma magazine, and what He believes the Holy Spirit is up to now, citing many examples from his own ministry.
That special day in 1976 was the defining point of Lee's life, which later led him to the editorial helm of Charisma for more than a decade and on to found a global ministry, The Mordecai Project, which recently relocated to LaGrange, Georgia.
"I love the Holy Spirit," Lee said. "That's why I ended up here at Charisma magazine so many years ago and worked here for so many years because that life-transforming moment completely changed me."
Lee is motivated to see that transformation for others in the body of Christ, especially young people who are in crisis, and he believes a supernatural move of God is coming.
"The Holy Spirit told me that this is going to happen and it's going to happen among young people," he said.
In the '70s, Watergate was all over the news, but God birthed the charismatic movement regardless of what was happening in the secular world. Today, our recent presidential election has spurred protests across the country, but it won't deter what God wants to do in His people.
"This is the biggest thing that I think He's going to do because personally I don't think anybody in the White House is going to be able to save us, but I think what is going to save us is another revival," Lee said. "It is fuel for another move of God."
Lee also knows that God created all races and ethnic groups, and He loves all people. No race or ethnicity will be left out of a move of God.
"I believe that God's heart is also for every ethnic group in this country to get blasted by the Holy Spirit," Lee said.
"What I live for today is to see another move of the Holy Spirit," Lee said. "And I really do believe we're on the edge of it."
Lee wrote Set My Heart on Fire simply so that young people can understand all that is available to them from the Holy Spirit and don't get stuck like he did as an 18-year-old in a traditional church.
"I really don't want people to approach the Holy Spirit like He's so complicated, and you have to figure Him out like a puzzle," Lee said. "I think that there is a simplicity to that truth."
Lee wants to dispel any confusion about the Holy Spirit and His work in believers today.
"Any age group can read this book, whether they're a new believer or whether they're a mature Christian, they're going to get a lot out of it," he said. "There (are) a lot of mature Christians whose hearts have gotten kind of cold, and they really are hungering for God to awaken something new and turn up the heat, so to speak. But I spend a lot of my time with young Christians, and I disciple a lot of young people, and I find that they really just don't have the resource that can help them get to first base in this."
The publisher, Charisma House, took the unusual step of placing a label on the book warning readers that the book could have "severe consequences for you and the people around you," encouraging Christians to "count the cost first before reading."
Lee knows all about that cost, as God sent him to 30 countries after he prayed a dangerous "send me" prayer in 1999. He has also included "dangerous" prayers of surrender at the end of every chapter in the book.

WASHINGTON -- Despite threats Washington officials might yank the March for Life's permit because of a dire storm threat, the march went on Friday.
Its participants refused to let a record-breaking blizzard bearing down on the nation's capitol stop them from their mission. Like in the 42 years before, they came determined to bear witness that multitudes of Americans hate abortion.
Starting on the National Mall, they've been marching on the Supreme Court to protest ever since it legalized abortion January 22, 1973. This year's theme: "Pro-Life and Pro-Woman Go Hand-in-Hand."
"I'm so thrilled with the theme of this year's march," Maureen Ferguson, senior policy advisor for The Catholic Association, told CBN News.
"It's so wild-timed because the pro-abortion side, of course, loves to use this as a political football and bandy around terms like 'the war on women.' But we know there's a war on women in the womb," she said. "Half of those babies aborted are little girls."
Catholic Association Senior Fellow Ashley Maguire explained the earliest American feminists were pro-life.
"Starting with the suffragettes who were fighting against slavery and then fought for their own rights to vote - they were very pro-life," Maguire said. "And so the idea that women are by nature pro-choice is completely false."
"And we know that abortion sadly leaves a woman wounded, sometimes physically; emotionally scarred with a hole in her heart for the rest of her life," Ferguson added.
"A woman's capacity to be a mother is empowering and it's a beautiful gift that's a part of who she is as a person," Jeanne Mancini, who leads the March for Life, said.
Subverted author Sue Ellen Browder was once a pro-choice feminist working at Cosmopolitan. That is no longer the case.
"To be pro-woman is to be pro-life, and of course that's true," she told CBN News before speaking at the March for Life rally. "You know, women want to have babies. Babies bring us joy, happiness, wonder."
Lauren Handy, with the group Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, counsels women heading into abortion clinics. She gets angry at those who accuse her of waging a war on those women.
"I think they use inflammatory language and scare tactics when we try to meet the needs of both the child and the mother, because we know abortion hurts the mother, the father and the child," she said.
Monica Miller, with Citizens for a Pro-Life Society, rejects that the right to this procedure is a key component of women's liberation.
"The sadness and the tragedy of that skewed, perverted point of view - that we actually would have to kill someone, end the life of someone else in order to be free - that's not a freedom," she explained.
"It looks easier and more fun not to have babies sometimes," Browder added. "But in the long run, especially when you get to be my age, and you see the women that did have children and how happy they are and how blessed they are with grandchildren and all that - whereas the old ladies in the nursing home, because they thought they were all free and alone, they're still alone."
"Abortion impacts women negatively, both psychologically and physiologically," Mancini insisted. "In fact we're hearing this week from a new Marist poll that the large majority of Americans believe that abortion hurts women, that it's not good for women, by a 35 percent margin."
Kristan Hawkins told CBN News how her group Students for Life of America constantly looks for ways to minister to young women considering this life-altering decision.
"We're always making sure that we're appealing to her and talking to her about how she's a victim, too," Hawkins shared. "And how the abortion industry, led by Planned Parenthood, is directly targeting her."
Planned Parenthood has become a major target of the marchers since it is by far the largest abortion-provider in the country. It ends the lives of more than 300,000 unborn babies every year.
“In the
west, people will respect the name of the Lord; in the east, they will glorify Him.
For He will come like a raging flood tide driven by the breath of the Lord.” Isaiah
59:19, New Living Translation
“‘Hear
the shouts, hear the triumph songs in the camp of the saved?" The hand of
God has turned the tide! The hand of God
is raised in victory! The hand of God has turned the tide!" Psalm 118:15-16 THE MESSAGE
I can sense it in my
spirit. The tide is turning. The Lord God of Israel has said, “Enough is enough”,
and He is turning the tide in the heavenly realm, and thus in the earth.
For decades the wicked
have risen up, proclaiming their agenda, pushing their immoral acts, pressing
down on the godly standards of the Judeo/Christian foundation. They have
removed the stones of the righteous, replacing them with heretical lies and
godless ways.
In my spirit I can hear
the Lord say, “Now it is MY time. It is MY time to raise up the standard and
show Myself strong. It is MY time to let the earth know that the King of kings
and the Lord of lords is in full control. It is not the heathen. It is not the oppressor.
It is not the tormentors who think they rule. MY Kingdom will be established,
even as I have spoken in My Word, and recorded by My prophets, centuries ago.
It will be My Word that
will set the course of the nations. Even as man and the rulers of the nations
think that they are moving mountains, they are but hills in My sight, and they
themselves will be moved.
I am raising up a
generation of young people who will look to their fathers and mothers for godly
direction, for wisdom in how to advance, for righteous counsel in what they are
being called to do. It is I, the Living God of Israel, Who will establish My purposes,
My plans.
Those who have laughed at
My people and at My words will not stand. They will see the right hand of God
move, and remove, and build up the righteous foundations again.
The tide is turning. Because
I am the Creator of the oceans and the mountains, and because they serve Me, I
will use them in the natural as a forerunner of what I am doing in the
spiritual."
