I stumbled upon the you tube videos that report the strange sounds being heard worldwide since 2011. When I listened to them I heard something different than most. A recent vision I had received from the Lord put a different spin on some of these sounds for me.
The vision was one of a lion's head- almost like the Sphinx head I remember thinking.
And there came forth a roar and I saw fire breathing forth from this lion head in the process.
Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth,
burning coals blazed out of it.
2 Samuel 22.9
And so I began to think about a lion roaring and what it meant and examining it in light of Scripture.
They will follow the LORD; he will roar like a lion. When he roars, his children will come trembling from the west. They will come trembling like birds from Egypt, like doves from Assyria. I will settle them in their homes," declares the LORD. Hosea 11.10,11
I imagined myself walking through a forest at night with nothing but the shirt on my back and hearing the roar of a lion nearby. I thought of the fear that would bring... the trembling...
the thinking that there is a very real chance I could get torn to pieces.
I thought of the scriptural teaching on the fear of the Lord.
As well, I considered how foreign that kind of fear is to us modern Christians.
Most Bible teachers will water it down and explain the fear of the Lord as "awe".
But you don't experiencing awe and trembling, it is "fear" that goes with "trembling",
as in, "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling." Philippians 2.12
Anyway those were some thoughts I had while considering the vision
and then I stumbled upon the videos.
And having been prepped in this way I was hearing a lion's roar in some of them.

And after hearing some of those my heart trembled.
Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling.
Psalm 55.5
