On the night of Monday, March 30, 2015, God was having a conversation with Gerald. In the conversation, God said, “Gerald, nine days I’ve kept you here” he asked him, “son do you know the reason why?” After a brief moment of thinking about the question asked, with a sense of humor he replied, “I don’t know God. In fact, I was about to ask you.” God responded Gerald, nine day’s I’ve kept you here, the number nine represents divine finality. The lord went on to explain divine, means “like God” and finality means” Irreversible”. In his closing, he told Gerald, “Son, before I could take you away, I wanted to make perfect your spirit man before doing the irreversible, to ensure you looked like me.” At 9:47 that night the spirit of Mr. Gerald Gallagher was ushered into the presence of The Lord.
