Prophetic Dream February 9 , 2010 I saw a helicopter in the air which seemed to be in danger of crashing.  I was in awe of this huge helicopter with the colors of red, blue and white with stars and stripes. The helicopter began to shrink upon its descent.  I notice on the top of the helicopter stood a man dressed up like the statue of liberty. 
My wife Joanna and my son Josiah stood by me when I noticed the man’s face was of chinese origin.  The man’s hands were lifted up as He cried out for help!  It seemed like his cries for help were useless because the helicopter was out of control and about to crash.  I said to my family, Pray! Pray! Pray!
As the helicopter descended it passed so close to us that I could feel the rush of wind all over my body causing me to tremble.  We watched from a distance as the helicopter crashed into a green open field.  We proceeded to walk to the sight and as we looked around there was a group of people of African descent looking at the crash sight. 
I noticed close to the mangled wings of the helicopter laid a Japanese looking man who was skinny as bones with his bowels hanging out.  My son took hold of his right hand and began to pray while I took hold of his left hand.  When my son finished praying for God’s will to be done the man looked up at me and touched my shoulders one at a time.  He must have noticed I was wearing a dark blue golf shirt with 777 written on the right shoulder along with a triangle shape and on the left side of the shirt was the number 2017 with a triangle shape.   The vision ended.

If you are a man or woman of God with the gift of interpretation of dreams and visions please feel free to write us on this website. Yours Building Christ’s Kingdom.

As regards to the dream you have receivd…the Scripture is clear that the Lord “does nothing unless He first reveal them to His servants the Prophets (Amos 3:7, Genesis 18:18-22, others) I think that the Lord allowed you to have some insight as to what will surely happen in America.  The stars and strips shown on the helicoptor going out of control and crashing, the man on the helicoptor crying out for the helicoptor to stop, etc all speak to me of an economic and power/influence robbing crash.  As a country, we are now out of control, both economically, politically and certainly spiritually.  China now has control of much of our debt, and the present president cares not how much they have or control us.  There may be something there with the man in your dream being of oriental origin.  Also how the coptor is shrinking before it crashes, with the man dressed like the statue of liberty…the country shrinking in influence, economically, politically, etc and going down and crashing.  
The folks of African origin may have to do with USA then being seen as less than a third world country in power, influence, etc…and other now will be looking at us like this after we have crashed economically as a powerful nation.  We may be reduced to ashes for a while, and hopefully will recover, as the Nation turns back to the Lord.  It may be that no other country can control our debt spirialing out of control.  I believe that America, her economy, etc will surely crash, and then be attacked by her enemies.  They have been waiting for some time now ( Russia, China, Cuba, others) for the best time to strike, and will do so while we are having domestic problems, and possibly and internal upheavel against our federal government.  Dave Wilkerson and Dmitri Dudeman both received insight from the Lord that America will burn, due to nuclear bombs being sent to our country.
I believe also, that since you, and your wife and son saw this and then began to minister to the man who was dying, may also indicate insight into how you, your family and others of God’s people will be able to share Life and Hope with those who are dying.  There will be many in this condition after the “crash” occurs. I cannot say I have the official interpretation for you, but I do think there are parallels to what others have dreamt, prophesied, etc and what you have seen in your dream.
Blessings!
Brother Joe Ferrara

  Josiah Salina - December 26, 2010 I had a dream the day following Christmas. I was in a group of people and I knew most of them were Christians. In the dream I notice a Pastor trying to take care of precious baby that was not his. He took good care of the baby up to a certain point. After a while I saw the baby picking up a dirty cotton bud and was gently hitting the Pastor on his face with it. After this, the Pastor’s caring attitude was no more. The pastor began to torture the baby by beating it nearly to the point of death. After the pastor had abused the child he took the baby’s lifeless body and tried to bury it in the sand by the beach without any regards to the child’s cry for help. - END OF DREAM——————————————————————————————–_
I prayed to the LORD for the interpretation and this is what I believe He gave me. I saw the baby as the children of Israel and the church as one which Jesus redeemed and bought back with His precious blood.
Some modern day Pastors are attempting to take the responsibility of adopting the church out of God’s hand and into their own hands.
Could the gentle hit from the baby with the cotton bud be that when the young ones in the church try to bring correction to the Pastors about genuine concerns, they begin to despise and abuse the people in the church without mercy. They attempt to cover up their behavior by preaching a stretched out message of grace to the point of disgrace. Instead of using the Kingdom principles of adapting to influence but not adopting, these religious leaders try to adopt the church to this world’s system by covering up the fact about their sin.

Dear Friends & Partners,

We want to thank you for your prayers and support during the 2009 calendar year. With your help the Lord has made it possible for us to take the gospel to the nation of South Africa. Missions and evangelism has always been the heart of this ministry. Last year was a time of transition for the Salina tribe as we moved our family back to America. We believe the Lord has brought us back for such a time as this. Our family has never made a decision without seeking the Lord and waiting for His direction. The ministry in South Africa still continues to be a part of the work started by Jesus Restoration Ministries along with friends and partners who obeyed the Lord in supporting this ministry. Dr. Christopher Salina, Pastor Joanna and Josiah will be visiting the mission field on the third week of May 2010. The children’s ministry continues to grow along with the Church planting among the Zulu people. Our desire is to continue to support the workers who have taken our place in serving the poor who are faithfully attending the Worship Service and feeding program for the children.
With God’s help and your continued support we will be sending help and visiting the mission field at least two months a year. At this time we are helping Pastors Juan & Denise Balbuena at the One Accord Christian Ministries in Florida. Please pray for traveling mercies. We are believing the Lord to meet all of our financial needs. Do stand with us in prayer for our next mission trip. The Lord has been good to us and we are grateful to have friends and family who believe in what we do. “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:14 Thank you so much!
Love Pastor Christopher, Joanna and Josiah Salina

How To Respond In Troubled Times 2010-2015

The foundations of this world are trembling and almost in every nation on the earth, so many are living in panic.  Jesus has encouraged us over 2000 years ago that in the middle of a troubled world, “Let not your heart be troubled,” and He also said” see that ye be not troubled,” …(John14:1, Matthew 24:6)The people of the world are asking, “what are we going to do in these troubled times?” We are going to look to the Lord God to intervene in the midst of the famine like He did for Joseph (Genesis 41-47).  We are going to believe the Lord God to intervene for us like He did for Esther and the Jewish people who were facing annihilation and they fasted for three days and three nights for divine intervention (Esther 1-8).

Recently our son was sharing a message at his school during chapel service and he said something under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit that caught our attention.  He said to the student body: think of anything you need right now.  It doesn’t matter what is going on in your world, the Word of God has an answer for everyone of our situations if anyone of us would truly look to the Word of God.  He was sharing from Psalms 119 that day. I’m reminded of Philippians 4:19, “My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.  “What a comparison! all our needs compared to the Lord’s inexhaustible supply of riches in heaven.  Our heavenly Father has revealed to us in His Word that he controls all sources of supply, both the expected and the unexpected. 

There’s no need in anyone of us on this planet that can ever exceed God’s abundant supply.  God’s abundant supply is the same even when the world is being shaken up by earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, floods, tornados, etc.  Jesus is still God in the bad times and the good times.  Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever. Father God is saying to Christians all over this troubled world, that though there be wars and rumors of wars, famines, pestilence and earthquakes in various places, you can still look to the Lord and rejoice for your redemption is drawing near. If we are truly looking unto Jesus who is our strength and our source, we can go through all without fear of things to come, without losing our faith, and without being denied the presence of God, peace of God, the provision of God, the protection of God, and the promotion of God. 

Father God is going to take care of us far beyond whatever we can think or imagine according to His unlimited miracle working power expressed through the life, death, burial, ressurection, ascension, glorification, and return of the Lord Jesus Christ” …Behold, the Lord comes with thousands of His saints to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of their ungodly deeds….(Jude 1:14-15).

Hello family, friends and partners in ministry;

Thank you for partnering with us. Since our last update we have planted a new church amongst the Zulu people in our community. The opening day was on the 8th of March 2009.  Along with the help of Bishop Rufus Ellappa, the pastoral leadership and congregation of Firm Foundation Community Church we started Sunday Worship Service.  The new congregation that has been established needs your continuous prayers and support.  On March 14th we had the privilege of Baptizing 17 new converts. The women’s Bible study on tuesday mornings has grown from 20 to about 60 in attendance,  We have trained Zanele, a young widow to lead the Bible study and preach the Word of God to those who are gathering together for the services during the week.  The Saturday children’s feeding program is still growing strong.  We thank God for the volunteers from Firm Foundation C.C. who assist in meeting the needs of over 100 children from the surrounding community.  The name of the Church is Sinakekele which means “Taking good care of us”.As of the 8th of April my family and I have returned to America, Through much prayer we feel that the Lord has directed us back to this nation for a season.   We have partnered with Graeme Weber Ministries from Durban, South Africa to start a missionary training center in order to take teams overseas for short and long term missions.  The unfolding of this vision will take time and effort along with the support and prayers of those who believe in what we are doing to reach men and women who sense the call of God to be missionaries and who are  willing to depend upon the Holy Spirit for their support in reaching out to the lost and coming alongside us in bringing hope to a people who feel that no one cares about them.

At present we feel an urgent need to educate the Church in America about the dangers of the Jihadist movement and to intercede more than ever for the wisdom of God to sound the alarm and come out of our comfort zone.  This is the time for God’s people to unite with one voice against the religions of force and violence.  Be encouraged as we pray that light will overcome  darkness; love will overcome hatred; good will overcome evil and that truth and righteousness will prevail. Your prayers and assistance liberate us and makes it possible for us to fulfill the call of God in our generation.

Yours in Christ’s service,
Christopher, Joanna and Josiah

Thanks to everyone that we met on our trip for the great times of fellowship. We trust in Jesus that all is well in that part of the Lord’s Vineyard. We are adjusting again to the unique lifestyle here on the farm. In spite of the power outages, we are learning to lean on Jesus, finding more power to go on even in the face of attacks of discouragement. It is not by might nor by power but by My Spirit says the LORD.

The Holy Sprit is weaving and we are learning to start cleaving–leaving the old order of things in order to start cleaving to the new order of things in the Holy Spirit. We are not breaking down! We are breaking through and through. Thanks for all your love and prayer support. The Holy Spirit will help each of us to be aggressive mentally, to think about and put into practice His will for our lives and in so doing we here on the mission field and you there on the home field claim in every way the victory of the precious blood of Jesus over all satanic forces in the mighty name of Jesus.
