I don't think this was a dream as I'm convinced I was awake . First thing on the morning , hadn't opened my eyes yet but could hear the rain on my window . Small star of David in my vision . Two golden triangles forming it , just like on the flag but golden not blue . It was there in front of my eyes for quite a long time . It made me feel awesome , a beautiful gift that reminded me to whom I belong . These little tokens from God r so precious and comforting and encouraging .
I had been graced with a vision when I was young, and I'll never forget the exact day to the hour, not quite 33 years ago. Four faces of an ox, a man, a lion, and an eagle and the wheel within a wheel was among the things I saw, along with a horse racing at full speed with its rider which was preceded by the right hand of the Lord that sent him out.

Such a powerful vision. From Ezekiel's telling it sounds like you saw what he saw>>

And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire. Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings. And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass. And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings. Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle. Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies. And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went. As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning. And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.

It's the beginning of a great adventure story for Ezekiel-- kind of a "how I became a prophet" tell-all.
It should be a made for TV "tell-a-vision" series, for then this messenger speaks to Ezekiel and gives him a scroll to eat and with the word of God taken in, Ezekiel goes out with God's blessing and encouragement to speak His words as a messenger himself on earth.

It's explained in detail how it works.... From that day on, the spirit entered Ezekiel, stood him upon his feet and spoke to him from within. Ezekiel's words were no longer his own, rather it was the spirit within him speaking the words of God.

I'd say it was a synopsis of what Ezekiel saw (just the faces, in profile and in succession as I was looking at them like crowds drifting across the sky, followed by the wheel. I wasn't familiar enough with the Bible att to know exactly who saw this, I was only aware that it was someone, like Daniel, in the OT. I was given this vision when I looked toward the east as, of course, I'd heard tell that this was the direction we'd ultimately see His coming but, I approached that endeavor with a genuine humility, and admittance that I was either being a fool or... genuinely offering... something? Even if it was just an honest seeking, seeking even while I didn't know nor ever could know by will alone. Those faces and the wheel were an answer to my question something like, 'which God am I to believe in? and how can I know Him?' but those were only a few images among all those I was shown. And it wasn't long that I found myself saying, "... I saw you coming..." of all the faces I saw "face to face"... but the most exciting thing about it all is, in the succession of these faces I was shown and met in the flesh... I wasn't compelled to lower my eyes in worship...that is, not until I saw the last face! It was as if I received a private screening of a debut blockbuster film, figuratively speaking, with all the elation and joy and.... I'm certain I have a pretty good idea of the experience of the feeling of rapture at His return.
