“October 22”

By Mark Davidson on October 18, 2026 • ( 0 )

(18 October 2026) We are currently in the point in time in which we see the Second Signpost looming ever larger. We saw it start September 11.

We don’t know when it will escalate. We don’t know when Iran will finish destroying the Arab oil facilities so the second horseman can finish taking away the peace of the earth. We don’t know when the regime’s armies will run out across the Middle East.

But it could happen any time now. The IRGC talks about attacking prior to November 3, and Trump talks about attacking after November 3. Every day of “normalcy” is a day to get more done, and thank God. But it’s also each day is one day closer to the end of normalcy.

This post is rather unique. Instead of news or analysis, I finally thought it appropriate to share something that happened to me in August 2023, which is related to this time of year. It is a personal thing, and so I put it out here on the internet.

It was a dream.

The Dream

I don’t know if this dream was from the Lord, or it was only from an imaginative brain. I’ve had a few dreams over the years that proved they had to be from the Lord. Time will tell if this one is also.

So one night I dreamt I was outside of our house at sunset. The sun had just set behind the Rocky Mountains to our east. I had just finished working in our garden for the day. The garden was fairly barren which meant that the main growing season was over in Colorado.

I was closing a large metal gate, heard the click of the latch, and checked my phone for messages. No messages. I carry a flip phone, so after closing the phone, the front display tells me the date. And so in my dream I saw a date. There was no time, and no year, but I saw a date on the display. It was “October 22.”

Dream scientists say you can’t read text in a dream. But I did. There it was, “October 22,” on my phone’s display.

Putting the phone in my pocket, I suddenly saw a bright streak of light high in the sky to the southwest. Looking up, I saw the light leaving a trail, falling to earth at an angle to the left such that it looked like it would hit the southeast horizon. It took three or four seconds for it to come down. I saw a bright light in the distance like a nuke had detonated.

From the distance and direction it looked like it hit one of the military bases south of us.

I ran for the house, thinking I had to get my family to the basement. As I ran, the dream ended.

Conclusion

For each of the last three years, I remembered that dream when October 22 came and went. But I hadn’t put much stock in it in those years.

And now it’s 2026. And October 22 approaches. But the world’s situation is different than it was over the last three years. The Second Signpost is about to explode.

I share this simply for what it is and what I saw. It is likely that nothing will become of that dream. Personally, I don’t think nuclear war will begin on an October 22, but it might be possible that the Second Signpost takes off this year on October 22. Maybe if it was from the Lord, it is telling me that the Second Signpost will be as earth shaking as a nuke going off. I don’t know.

Or nothing will happen.

I share this dream simply as a brother in Christ sharing and telling my brothers and sisters in Christ about something personal that happened to me.

So what do you think? Maybe the Lord is giving one or two of you a word.

In the meantime, keep watch.
