My name is Elanor Whitmore, and on October 12th, 2023, I died for 11 minutes and 32 seconds. What I experienced during those minutes wasn't just a glimpse of Heaven; it was a Divine appointment where Jesus Himself showed me three critical events that will shake our world before 2030. I need to share this testimony not for attention or fame, but because time is running out, and God's people need to be prepared.
I was a pediatric nurse for 15 years. I dealt with medical facts, scientific evidence, and rational explanations. Never in my life did I imagine I'd be sharing a story like this, but God has His ways of reaching even the most practical minds, doesn't He?
That morning started like any other. After a restless night following my daughter's piano recital, I decided to start my morning jog earlier than usual. The streets of our Minneapolis suburb were quiet at 4:30 a.
m. , with just the occasional car passing by. The air was crisp, and a light fog hung over the neighborhood, making the streetlights look like halos in the darkness.
At 4:47 a. m. , I remember checking my watch.
Everything changed. The last thing I saw were headlights coming around the corner far too fast. The driver, as I later learned, had fallen asleep at the wheel.
I remember thinking, "This is it," and then everything changed. The transition was instant. One moment I was on that dark street, and the next I was embraced by a light so pure and intense that it should have been blinding, but it wasn't.
It was like being immersed in pure love. The best way I can describe it is like stepping through a door you never knew existed into a reality more real than anything we experience on Earth. The first thing I noticed was the complete absence of pain and fear.
In their place was a peace so profound it felt like I was experiencing peace for the first time in my life. Everything that had ever worried me, every anxiety and concern, seemed to melt away in the presence of this light. The peace wasn't just an emotion; it was tangible, like being wrapped in a warm blanket of pure tranquility.
As my awareness expanded, I began to notice things that my earthly mind struggled to comprehend. Colors I had never seen before danced at the edges of my vision. The air itself seemed alive with purpose and presence.
Music surrounded me—not from any particular direction, but from everywhere and nowhere at once. It wasn't like earthly music; it was more like pure worship made audible, harmonies that spoke of glory and majesty I had never imagined. Then I saw her: my grandmother, Sarah, who had passed away when I was 12.
But she wasn't the elderly woman I remembered from her final days in the hospital. She appeared radiant and young, probably in her 30s, yet I knew without a doubt it was her. Her smile held the same warmth I remembered from childhood, but now it radiated with a heavenly glow.
"Elanor," she said, and her voice carried the same musical lilt I remembered, but purer somehow. Each word seemed to carry layers of meaning and love. "Don't be afraid; He's waiting for you.
" I wanted to ask her so many questions. I wanted to tell her how much I missed her, how often I thought about her, how her faith had influenced my own walk with God, but before I could speak, she reached out and touched my face with infinite tenderness. In that touch, I somehow knew she already knew everything I wanted to say.
Love and understanding flowed between us without need for words. "There will be time for questions later," she said, her eyes twinkling with joy, "but right now there's something more important: He has chosen you for a purpose. Elanor, what you're about to see and hear, it's not just for you; it's for His church, for His people.
They need to know what's coming. " As she spoke these words, everything shifted. The light seemed to gather and concentrate, taking form, and there He was: Jesus Christ Himself.
Let me be clear: He didn't look like the paintings we see in churches. His appearance was both human and divine in a way that human language struggles to capture. His presence was so overwhelming that I fell to my knees—not out of fear, but out of pure awe and worship.
His eyes—oh, how can I describe His eyes? They held all the wisdom of the universe, yet they were filled with such tender compassion that I began to weep. They were like flames of love, seeing straight through to my soul, knowing everything about me, yet loving me completely.
In His gaze, I felt both completely exposed and totally accepted. The love that radiated from His presence was overwhelming. It was pure, perfect love—the kind that knows everything about you: every mistake, every flaw, every secret shame—and loves you completely anyway.
In His presence, I understood for the first time what perfect love really means. It was like every love I had ever known—a parent's love, romantic love, friendship, the love for my children—was just a dim shadow of this perfect, complete love. “My child,” He said, and His voice resonated through my very being, carrying authority and gentleness in perfect balance.
Each word seemed to exist in multiple dimensions, carrying layers of meaning that my earthly mind struggled to fully grasp. “I have brought you here because time grows short, and My people need to be prepared. There are three events coming that will shake the foundations of faith and test the hearts of all humanity.
” As He spoke, the space around us transformed. We were suddenly standing in what I can only describe as an amphitheater of light, but instead of seats and stages, it was formed of. .
. Pure light and energy before us. Scenes began to materialize in the air, as real and solid as any earthly scene, yet somehow more real.
"Watch carefully," Jesus said, placing His hand on my shoulder. "What you are about to see is the first of three great events that will unfold before 2030. This is the great deception, a time of testing that will shake many from their faith if they are not prepared.
" The scene before us shifted, and I saw massive crowds gathering in cities all around the world. People were looking up at the sky in wonder and amazement. In the heavens above them, magnificent lights danced and moved in impossible patterns.
These weren't ordinary lights; they pulsed with an otherworldly intelligence, forming complex geometric patterns that seemed to speak directly to people's minds. "What you're seeing," Jesus explained, "is the beginning of the great falling away. These signs in the heavens will appear simultaneously across the globe.
They will seem beautiful, peaceful, and full of wisdom, but they are not what they appear to be. " I watched as beings of light began to manifest among the crowds. They appeared benevolent and wise, speaking of unity, peace, and a new age of human enlightenment.
Their words were compelling; their presence charismatic. They spoke of ancient wisdom, of humanity's true potential, of a coming evolutionary leap in consciousness. What broke my heart was seeing how many Christians were being deceived.
These beings knew Scripture and could quote it eloquently, but they twisted its meaning in subtle ways. They spoke of Jesus as a great teacher but denied His deity. They acknowledged the Bible's wisdom but questioned its authority.
They promoted love while subtly undermining the need for repentance. "Notice," Jesus said, directing my attention to specific scenes, "how they mix truth with lies. They speak of love but never of sin.
They promise peace but reject the cross. They offer wisdom but deny My deity. " I saw religious leaders from various denominations embracing these beings' messages.
Large conferences were held where Christian terminology was skillfully reinterpreted to accommodate these new teachings. Words like salvation, redemption, and Christ consciousness were redefined to mean something entirely different from their biblical meanings. The deception was particularly effective with young people.
I saw how social media platforms were flooded with compelling content that made this new spirituality seem exciting and progressive. Traditional Christian beliefs were increasingly portrayed as outdated and limiting. Those who held to biblical truth were marginalized and labeled as obstacles to human progress.
"The deception will be so convincing," Jesus explained, "that even many who think themselves strong in faith will be shaken. They will not realize they are being led astray because the path away from truth will seem so reasonable, so loving, so inclusive. " I watched as these beings performed what appeared to be miracles.
They healed diseases, instantly manifested food for the hungry, and even seemed to manipulate physical reality itself. Their technological gifts appeared to solve many of humanity's greatest challenges: clean energy, environmental restoration, advanced medical treatments. "Remember what I warned in My word," Jesus said, His voice filled with both authority and sorrow.
"For false Christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. These beings will offer solutions to humanity's problems but at the cost of eternal truth. " The scene shifted to show me how this deception would affect different aspects of society.
I saw scientists abandoning their skepticism in the face of seemingly irrefutable evidence of these beings' superior knowledge; politicians and world leaders working together to integrate these beings' guidance into global governance; educational systems being restructured to incorporate these new spiritual truths; major media outlets promoting this new paradigm while subtly marginalizing traditional faith; technology being used to create immersive spiritual experiences that felt real but led people away from genuine encounters with God. What struck me most was how reasonable it all seemed. These weren't obvious lies or clear attacks on faith; they were subtle distortions that appealed to people's deepest desires for peace, unity, and purpose.
Jesus then showed me something that made my heart ache. I saw faithful Christians struggling with doubt as their friends and family embraced these new teachings. I saw children questioning their parents' faith, spouses growing distant from each other, and church communities dividing over how to respond to these developments.
"My child," Jesus said, turning to me with eyes full of compassion, "this is why I'm showing you these things. My people need to be prepared. They need to know that when these signs appear, they must hold fast to what they know to be true.
" He then gave me specific instructions for believers to prepare for this time. "Tell them to root themselves deeply in My word now, before the storm comes. Many will present convincing arguments and seemingly miraculous signs, but My word remains the standard of truth; it must be hidden in their hearts before the deception begins.
Tell them to strengthen their prayer lives and their personal relationship with Me. In the times ahead, many will claim to speak for Me, but My sheep know My voice; they must learn to recognize it clearly now. Tell them to build genuine community with other believers.
They will need each other's support and accountability when these challenges come. The enemy will try to isolate them, but they must stand together. " "Most importantly, tell them not to fear.
These things must come to pass, but I am still in control. Those who remain faithful to Me will be given discernment to see through the deception. " As He spoke these words, I felt them burning into my heart with a supernatural clarity.
I knew I would never forget them. Then Jesus showed me something that filled me with hope: pockets of believers all over the world who remained strong in their faith despite the deception. Here's your text with perfect punctuation: "Weren't large in number, but they shone like beacons in the darkness.
These are my faithful ones," Jesus said, "who have not bowed to the spirit of this age. They have chosen truth over comfort, faithfulness over popularity. Through them, many who were deceived will find their way back to me.
" The vision began to fade, and I felt Jesus's hand on my shoulder again. "This is only the first of the three events you must warn about," he said, "but for now you must return. Remember everything you have seen and heard.
Share it with my people. Some will doubt; some will mock, but those who have ears to hear will understand and prepare. " I wanted to stay longer to ask more questions, but I could feel myself being drawn back.
The last thing I remember was Jesus's voice filled with both love and urgency: "Tell them I love them. Tell them to hold fast to what they have. Tell them that though deception comes, I will never leave them or forsake them.
" As the vision of the great deception faded, I felt Jesus's presence grow even stronger. His hand remained on my shoulder, and I could feel waves of his love washing over me, preparing me for what I was about to see next. "Now," he said, his voice filled with what I can only describe as divine anticipation, "I will show you the second great event: the Great Awakening.
For where darkness increases, my light shines even brighter. " The amphitheater of light around us transformed again. This time, I saw something that took my breath away: a wave of pure golden light sweeping across the Earth.
But unlike the deceptive lights of the first vision, this light came from within people's hearts. "Watch carefully," Jesus said, "for this is how I will move in the midst of the deception. When the enemy comes in like a flood, I will raise up a standard against him.
" The first scene he showed me was in a place I never expected: a high-tech corporate office in what appeared to be Silicon Valley. I watched as a young software engineer sat at his desk, surrounded by multiple screens displaying complex code. Suddenly, he stopped typing; tears began streaming down his face.
"This man," Jesus explained, "has spent years developing artificial intelligence systems meant to replace human spiritual guidance. But in this moment, I reveal myself to him in a way his logical mind cannot deny. " I watched as the young man fell to his knees right there in his office.
His co-workers stared in shock as he began to openly praise Jesus, not caring about his professional reputation or what others might think. Then, the scene shifted to a university lecture hall. A professor known for her aggressive atheism was in the middle of a lecture critiquing religious belief.
Mid-sentence, she stopped speaking; her hands began to tremble. "Watch what happens when my spirit breaks through years of intellectual resistance," Jesus said. The professor dropped her lecture notes and gripped the podium.
"I've been wrong," she announced to her stunned students. "I've just encountered Jesus Christ, and everything I've taught you about religion being a delusion—I was the one who was deluded. " Scene after scene unfolded before me, each showing a different aspect of this Great Awakening: a mosque in the Middle East where hundreds of Muslims simultaneously experienced visions of Jesus; a prison where hardened criminals were falling on their knees in genuine repentance; entertainment industry executives spontaneously canceling projects that mocked faith; government buildings where officials were openly praying and seeking God's wisdom; hospitals where doctors and nurses were witnessing miraculous healings that defied medical explanation.
But Jesus was quick to show me that this awakening would not come without cost. "Observe," he said, "how the world responds to this outpouring of my spirit. " I saw believers facing intense persecution, not just from governments or religious authorities but from their own families.
Children were being disowned for their faith; spouses were leaving their partners; employees were being fired; students were being expelled. "In this time," Jesus explained, "the line between light and darkness will be clearly drawn. There will be no more lukewarm faith, no more casual Christianity.
Each person will have to choose where they stand. " What amazed me most was how this awakening transcended all human boundaries: age, culture, social status, education level. I saw wealthy business executives and homeless individuals experiencing the same powerful encounters with God.
Language barriers seemed to dissolve as people from different nations worshiped together in supernatural unity. "This is true unity," Jesus explained, "not the counterfeit unity offered by the deceivers. This is the unity of my spirit, born of truth—truth, not compromise.
" He showed me how this awakening would manifest differently than previous revivals in history. Instead of being centered around specific locations or charismatic leaders, it was simultaneously erupting in countless places: small groups meeting in homes became powerhouses of spiritual transformation; office break rooms turned into prayer rooms; school cafeterias became sites of spontaneous worship. But what struck me most was the depth of repentance I witnessed.
This wasn't emotional hysteria or superficial religious excitement. People were experiencing deep, genuine conviction of sin and a profound understanding of God's holiness. "Notice," Jesus said, "how this awakening begins in the secret place before the public manifestations.
There is private brokenness and repentance. " I watched as people began to receive supernatural gifts. Some received the ability to see into the spiritual realm, exposing the deceptions that had infiltrated churches.
Others received gifts of healing, but unlike the showy demonstrations of the deceivers, these healings pointed people directly to Christ. Many received what Jesus called the gift of divine perspective—the ability to see current events through Heaven's lens. Some were given supernatural wisdom to help guide others through the increasing chaos.
Many received the gift of discernment, able to instantly distinguish truth. From clever counterfeits, these gifts Jesus explained are not for personal glory but for the building up of my body. They are tools for the harvest that is coming.
Then He showed me something that brought both joy and sorrow to my heart. I saw young children and teenagers becoming powerful witnesses for Christ. They moved in remarkable spiritual authority, unafraid of opposition.
But I also saw them facing terrible persecution, particularly in schools and on social media. The young ones who stay faithful in this time will be given special grace, Jesus said. They will face unique challenges but will also walk in unique authority.
The scene shifted to show me underground church meetings in places where persecution had become severe, but instead of seeing fear and defeat, I saw faces filled with supernatural joy. These believers had discovered something precious: the reality that Jesus's presence was more satisfying than any earthly comfort or security. "Watch how the persecution purifies my church," Jesus said.
"What the enemy means for harm, I use for greater glory. " I saw how this awakening affected different spheres of society. In technology, programmers and developers began creating platforms that facilitated genuine Christian community.
Social media algorithms mysteriously began favoring content that proclaimed biblical truth. Tech companies founded by new believers prioritized ethics over profits. In entertainment, artists and musicians received supernatural inspiration to create works that carried God's presence.
Movies and shows that honored God began drawing larger audiences than anti-Christian content. Celebrities known for profane content suddenly began producing work that pointed to Christ. In education, students started underground prayer movements that spread rapidly.
Teachers received boldness to share their faith despite restrictions. Educational materials showing God's design in creation began reaching mainstream acceptance. In business, Christian business owners operated with supernatural wisdom during economic upheaval.
Workplace Bible studies multiplied, transforming company cultures. Corrupt business practices were exposed as God's people walked in integrity. But Jesus made it clear that this awakening wouldn't look like what many expected.
It wasn't about building bigger churches or creating Christian celebrities; instead, it was marked by genuine humility and brokenness before God, supernatural unity that transcended denominational barriers, deep repentance and lifestyle transformation, unprecedented boldness in witnessing, extraordinary compassion for the lost, and powerful demonstrations of God's power that couldn't be explained away. "This awakening," Jesus explained, "will be both a great harvest and a great separation. Many who claim my name but don't know me will be exposed, but many who have rejected me will be dramatically converted.
" He showed me how this would affect families: prodigal children returning home with powerful testimonies, divided families being supernaturally reconciled, and generational curses being broken as entire family lines turned to God. Parents receiving wisdom to guide their children through unprecedented times. But there was urgency in Jesus's voice as He continued, "This awakening comes in the midst of growing darkness.
Those who respond must respond quickly; those who delay will find it increasingly difficult to choose truth. " I saw how certain regions and communities experienced this awakening more intensely than others. The determining factor wasn't wealth, education, or religious background; it was humility and hunger for God.
"Where there is genuine hunger," Jesus said, "my spirit will move with greater power. Pride and self-sufficiency block the flow of my spirit. " Then He showed me something crucial about this awakening.
It wasn't just about bringing in new believers; it was also about awakening those who had been Christians for years but had grown lukewarm or complacent. "Many of my children," He said with deep concern, "have known me only in their minds. During this time, they will encounter me in ways that transform them completely.
Head knowledge will become heart experience. " As this part of the vision began to fade, Jesus gave me specific instructions for those who would experience this awakening: "Tell them to guard their hearts against pride. When they see my power move through them, tell them to stay low and humble, sharing resources without hesitation, operating in supernatural wisdom, moving in powerful spiritual gifts, maintaining joy despite circumstances.
" Then Jesus showed me something crucial about this time: "Notice how this shaking separates the wheat from the chaff. Those who have built their lives on my word will not only survive but thrive. " I saw three types of responses to the shaking: 1.
Those who had rejected God became even more hardened. 2. Those with superficial faith fell away completely.
3. Those who truly knew God grew stronger and bolder. "This shaking," Jesus explained, "serves multiple purposes.
It exposes what is false, purifies what is true, awakens the sleeping, strengthens the faithful, and creates hunger for truth in those who are seeking. " Then He showed me specific instructions for His people to prepare: "Tell them to build their lives on my word now, before the storm comes. Those who know my voice will not be deceived.
Tell them to strengthen their relationships with other believers. The time is coming when they will need each other desperately. Tell them to learn to depend on me for everything—not just spiritual things, but practical provision as well.
Tell them not to fear these events but to prepare their hearts through deeper intimacy with me. " Jesus then showed me how this shaking would ultimately serve His purposes: it would create unprecedented opportunities for evangelism, purify and unite His true church, demonstrate the reality of His kingdom, and prepare people for His return. "This shaking," Jesus said, "though severe, comes from my love.
I shake what is false so my people will turn to what is true. " As this final vision began to fade, Jesus turned to me with eyes full of both solemnity and love. "Remember," He said, "these three events—the great deception, the Great Awakening, and the great shaking—are not meant to bring fear but preparation.
Those who know me will be given strength to stand. " He gave me a final word for his people: tell them I love them with an everlasting love. Tell them not to fear what is coming, but to draw close to me now.
Tell them that though everything around them shakes, my kingdom cannot be shaken. I felt myself being drawn back, but Jesus's final words echoed in my spirit: the time is short; share what you have seen. Those who have ears to hear will understand and prepare.
When I returned to my body, I knew my life would never be the same. The doctors called my survival a medical miracle, but I knew it was much more—it was a divine appointment, a message of both warning and hope for God's people. As I close this testimony, I want to emphasize these events aren't meant to frighten us, but to prepare us.
God is not revealing these things to cause panic, but to position his people for victory. The key is not physical preparation, but spiritual intimacy with Jesus. Remember, the great deception will test our discernment, the great awakening will expand our faith, and the great shaking will prove our foundation.
Through it all, Jesus remains faithful, and his people will emerge stronger, purer, and more united than ever before.
