Yesterday, I prayed about what to share in this weekās newsletter. Not long after, I had what I believe was a prophetic dream.
š¤ The Dream
During a mid-morning Sabbath nap, I dreamed I was on a bicycle tour through a sprawling town of small businesses. I was about a mile downhill from the inn where I was staying, up on the ridge. The streets were emptyāno cars or peopleājust quiet, sunshine, and peace.
I looked uphill toward the inn and saw a large structure on fire. I knew it was the coal-fired power plant near where I was staying. It was pouring out thick black and gray smoke, billowing like the volcano footage I'd recently seen of Mount Etna.
The flames intensifiedāand then the entire building exploded, almost like a small nuclear blast. I ducked behind a solid wall, bracing for debris. A few seconds later, I felt the concussion, and heard the sound of particlesālike sandāraining down around me. Then that scene ended.
In the next vignette, I was riding near a small private zoo, where a huge brown bear had escaped. People were shouting for help, trying to get someone to recapture it. I saw a pair of lions bite into the bearās hindquarters, but the bear didnāt even react. Then I woke up.
š¤ The Meaning (As I Understand It)
Hereās my interpretation. Iād love to hear if God shows you anything more:
In the first dream:
The coal-fired power plant represents the old power structureāthe global elites, governments, and systems that currently rule over us from their lofty perch.
That system is now āon fireā and will soon experience a cataclysmic collapse.
Importantly, the town below wasnāt destroyed. Life continued. So I believe this means that while the Great Reset is imminent, we donāt need to fearālife will go on.
In the second dream:
The bear likely represents Russia, now loosed on the world stage.
The lions may represent Britain, or perhaps remnants of Western strength, trying to contain the bearābut failing.
The bear being unbothered by the lions' attack suggests that their attempts will be ineffective.
Let me know if you see other symbols in the dreamāor if the Lord gives you confirmation or additional insight.
š£ Author Update ā June 7, 2025
š Trilogy Momentum
On June 2, readers bought 70 copies of the Positive Apocalypse trilogy on Amazonāmy all-time one-day record!
In May, 229 books were purchased. But in just the first 7 days of June, readers have already bought 135 books.
If this trend continues, over 500 readers could pick up the trilogy this monthāmore than double last monthās total.
š Thank you to everyone whoās reading, sharing, and reviewing. Youāre helping others discover a positive message of truth, hope, and victory in these final days.
ā Advertising & Reviews
Iām still learning the ropes of free and paid advertising to help new readers discover the series.
Meanwhile, reader ratings on Amazon continue to stay strongā4.5 stars and above across the trilogy.
Hereās a recent review that really encouraged me:
āFollowing closely from Daniel, Thessalonians, and Revelation, Maj Tom creates a narrative thatās only too close to current events about to happen⦠It is a fascinating but terrifying story that could well take place within a year or two of our current time line⦠I couldnāt put this book down and Iām looking forward to the next one in the series.ā
š Translations Update
This week I published the Spanish version of Birth Pangs of the End Times: Casting the Devil Down: DOLORES DE PARTO DEL FIN DE LOS TIEMPOS: Derribando al diablo
This opens the door for native Spanish speakers throughout the Americasāand beyondāto experience the story. Since many Brazilians also read Spanish, this version provides effective coverage of nearly the entire Western Hemisphere.
Iām currently working on 10 additional language translations, which will soon make the series accessible to over 96% of the global population.
Please pray that these translations reach the people God is preparing to call.
š§ Audiobook Progress
I spent a full day this week trying to use Amazonās Virtual Voice to produce an audiobook of Birth Pangs of the End Times⦠but I wasnāt satisfied with the pronunciation quality.
SoāPlan B: When my Kindle Unlimited contract ends on June 22, I plan to re-release the book wide (through Apple, B&N, Kobo, Smashwords, Amazon, etc.) and use ElevenLabs.io to create and distribute a professional-quality audiobook.
Excellence takes timeābut weāre getting close.
Thank you for walking this road with me.
More updatesāand more good newsācoming soon.
In Christ,
Maj Tom
Christian author & Bible teacher
