For years, Randy Kay kept one of the most dramatic portions of his near-death experience hidden from public view.
Now, as reports of revival continue to emerge from around the world, Kay believes the time has come to share what he says Jesus showed him in heaven concerning “the storm” that will precede Christ’s return.
Speaking with Gabe Poirot, Kay recounted an encounter that began after his death from blood clots and continued into what he describes as a journey through heaven. While many accounts of heaven focus on its beauty and peace, Kay said Jesus specifically brought him into the throne room to witness a coming sequence of events.
“The storm was Jesus’ term to me in heaven,” Kay explained.
According to Kay, the first phase of the storm was not destruction but an unprecedented outpouring of God’s glory upon the earth.
He described hearing a declaration from God’s throne: “It has begun.”

Following that proclamation, Kay said he witnessed what appeared to be a massive outpouring of heavenly glory covering the earth.
“I could see multitudes of people just praising the Lord and giving Him glory and honor,” Kay said. “I could see people literally walking out of wheelchairs. I could see them in the hospital just walking out of their hospital beds.”
He said the vision revealed widespread healing, salvation and miracles occurring across nations.
But the experience soon shifted.
Kay said Jesus covered his eyes and allowed him to witness seven protective “shields” being removed from the earth.
“The Holy Spirit was explaining to me what was going on,” he said. “These were the shields of God’s protection that were being lifted over the earth.”
As those protections were removed, Kay said he saw devastating scenes of suffering, destruction and chaos unlike anything he had ever witnessed.
“I was seeing all kinds of atrocities on earth,” Kay recalled. “I asked Jesus to please stop it. Don’t let me see these things.”
The vision then transitioned to what Kay believes was Christ’s triumphant return.
He described seeing Jesus mount a white horse surrounded by countless angels before descending upon Israel.
“Jesus … declared, echoing what the Father had declared, ‘It is finished,'” Kay said.
According to Kay, the battle was over almost instantly as Christ established His kingdom.
The final portion of the vision focused on the New Earth and what Kay described as the marriage supper of the Lamb.
“I could see a feast,” he said. “Jesus was at the head of the table, and He was saying, ‘Welcome to the marriage feast.'”
Today, Kay believes the first phase of the storm—the global outpouring of God’s glory—is already underway.
Pointing to revival movements in Africa, China and among younger generations, he said he sees evidence that the vision is unfolding.
His message remains simple and urgent.
“Get serious with God,” Kay said. “He loves you so much.”
Kay’s testimony serves as both a warning and an encouragement: before the storm reaches its climax, God’s glory is being poured out across the earth, calling people to repentance, healing and salvation.
