COVERED WITH THE BLOOD AND STANDING ON THE ROCK  

 

A couple of days ago I dreamt that I was caught in the middle of a battle. I took cover in a bathtub. There was a Baby (Small Child) nearby and the incoming fire struck the Child and as the Child fell into the tub on top of me giving me additional cover, I was covered in Its Blood.  

When that battle was over, I sought a way to remove myself from the area of the engagement. I was presented with two means of escape. There was a grade level route that seemed fine, and a way that called for standing on a Rock and for help.  

I heard a voice saying that I should stand on the Rock as that would be the safer way and so I did.  

So, let me ask you, is this not a very gracious thing for the Lord to do in showing me how His Son endured my pain and shed His Blood to cover me from danger as I lay there is His Manger. Further my protection is ensured when I chose to stand on the Rock of His Salvation.  

For me this is over the top encouragement! 

 

 

THE HAND

Views: 316

Last night I decided to meditate on Bible Scripture from memory while I fell asleep rather than listening to Bible teaching on the CD player as I most often do. 

I cannot say enough about having The Word hidden in the heart to be summoned in a time of need! 

I first recalled Ephesians 6:10 with the intent of reciting silently through verse 20. The devil hates it when I do that and throws out many distractions. 

I then found myself reflecting on Philippians 2:13 which reads “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” 

Let that soak in. 

After that I at once saw a vision of the similitude of a man’s face. In an instant I now saw the Left Hand of God. He said these things about His Hand: “with this Hand I created, and I sustain the universe, This Hand is your place of protection, it is your help in time of need, your destiny is directed by It, you are chastened by This Hand, and no man can pluck you from This Hand.” 

I equate The Left Hand of God to be the Holy Spirit. 

The vision was vivid, and He made motions during it such as closing The Hand gently to show protection and opening it wide to express creation. 

I felt great peace upon arising this morning. 

AS HE WENT (healing baby girl)

Views: 191

Last night (this morning) I dreamt that I was off to get a haircut. I was walking to a nearby community and had to cross over several city blocks. 

I came upon a marketplace where a vendor was placing his wares along an alley way. His merchandise looked like barrels or bales of hay. 

As he positioned them lined up down the alley, I found myself getting in his way. We entered a discussion and he invited me to visit his home, practically insisting that I come. 

When we got to his house we walked in and past his son that was busy doing some domestic stuff, getting something out of or putting stuff into a dresser. 

We continued down a hall and to a room down some stairs. There was a bed in that room and two people lying down on it: the man’s wife and a daughter of about ten years old. 

I could see that his daughter was sick and got permission from her dad to pray for her. I explained to her that I would be praying for her in the name of Jesus Christ and asked her if she believed that Jesus could and would heal her. Her answer was in the affirmative. 

I told her that the Healing Power of Jesus would feel like electricity working in her body and not to fear. 

As I approached her, a demon manifested, doing what demons do. This one stuck out its (her) tongue at me in a belligerent manner. Demons are most often (if not always) the cause of illness, oppression, infirmity, mental illness and the like and should be dealt with first.  

The Lord lists this first on his to do list of signs that will follow believers. I rebuked the demon and commanded it to leave the child (I cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ). 

I laid my hands on the child and commanded the illness to leave her and felt her relief as the disease left. 

The child set up on the bed. I asked her if she was healed, and she said that she thought so. I looked over at her father and told him that I was sure she was healed because I knew it when the oppressor left her. 

There are several interesting aspects of this dream, one of them being that the father seemed to know that I was the vessel that God would use to bring healing to his home, and he unhesitatingly took me to his sick child. This was evidence of his faith coupled with the Word of Wisdom. 

As we go, He (Jesus Christ) is right there working with us “confirming the word with signs following.” 

 

“GIVE ME WHAT BELONGS TO ME” A lesson about Tithing

Views: 643

A few days ago, I dreamt that I was gathering the mail from my now deceased father-in-law’s mailbox. The mail carrier had just delivered the mail. When I opened the mailbox, along with a few assorted pieces of mail there were two large stacks of money. There were thousands and thousands of dollars. 

My first thought was “could this be my money?” It was not my mailbox though. As I gathered up the money, two of Mr. A’s children nicked a few bills from the top of one of the bundles. They said, “daddy won’t mind, going to just get a manicure.” 

As I went in to present the bundles to Mr. A, we determined that one of them was his and that he did not know who the other one belonged to. This meant the other one was mine or at least my job to haphazardly try to find the true owner. 

Meanwhile as I had been slow to slide on over to Mr. A his exceptionally large pile of green, he said to me sternly, “give me what belongs to me.” 

Now, there were other people in the room. Some were sitting at the table where he and I were sitting. Now as I passed his bundle on over to him, he at once started to disperse the smaller bundles from his larger one to those in the room. 

These folks were worker associates of his. They did all the legwork, and it was time to be paid. He slid money bundles to those at the table and I recall him tossing one over his left shoulder to a person sitting back in the corner. 

I knew that this was a lesson about tithing. He went about remitting to those owed at once and fully. I had been asking the Lord to give me clarity about tithing and this was His answer. It was clear to me that I should go at once to the third chapter of the Book of Malachi. Malachi 3 is the go-to text at tithes and offerings time in the Church. 

It is my intent to sort through the referenced scripture and to show you what I see but for now, in a few words, what God showed me is that tithing is a principle and mandate for now as it always has been (vs 4). 

We are admonished that we will be thoroughly judge and that faithful giving is a thing of righteousness (vs 3). 

In verse 6 He says, “For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore, ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.”Ye sons of Jacob are not consumed” means that the tithes and offerings are not outdated but are ongoing. No change. 

Read Malachi chapter 3. 

 

MONEY VISION

Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. (Luke 6:38)

Last night I had just a quick vision. What I saw was a hand handing me money. It was a fist full of assorted denominations of paper bills.

The dream was over.

I KNOW FOR SURE! A DREAM COME TRUE

Views: 693

About ten years ago I had a dream about a fellow that attended the same Church that I attended. Let’s call him Daniel.

In the dream I saw Daniel in Africa. Africa is his home continent. I saw him entering a compound (generally, a group of homes or living quarters that are grouped together with a boundary or fence around them). Compounds are known to be common in Africa.

The impression upon my head was that he was someone of some, if not great renown. I saw that he entered the compound from the north. I saw an ingress/egress on the south side of the complex that was directly across from the north side entrance.The compound was rectangular in shape with a west to east length that was double or more the width. The property slopped down from the west to the east and there was a stream that ran parallel to the east end of it.

Daniel entered near the eastern end of the compound. There entered with him his entourage.They proceeded to what I saw as the living quarters for Daniel and his group. Said quarters were found about three-quarters down on the south side of the compound.

I was impressed also that there was an element of evil associated with the stream or that was to approach from the east side of the compound.

The dream of long ago was over. At some time reasonably close to the time of the dream I shared it with Daniel.

That was ten-or-so years ago. Fast forward to now. About three weeks ago I received a call from Daniels’ wife. Let’s call her Tiffany. Tiffany and I use to work with the same company, and she needed some industry related hep.

During our conversation, I asked her how Daniel was doing. She said to me that he was fine and that he was currently in Congo (The Democratic Republic of Congo). She said that he was working on a project there.

The thought of the dream that I had long ago about him being in Africa came to mind at once so I asked her if he had mentioned the dream to her. She said no, so I went ahead and told her the dream.

As I began to tell her the dream, she listened attentively but stopped me abruptly and asked me to wait while she got something to write with. She told me that what I had just told her and how I described the setting exactly described a new gated housing development that Daniel was working on. We were both very excited that the Lord was revealing to us that He was/is playing a part in the matter.

I asked her to have him to call me so that we could catch up and, of course, further discuss the dream and get further at what God is doing. About two weeks after my conversation with Tiffany, Daniel returned to the states and called me. We arranged to have lunch for the following week.

Prior to meeting with the Daniel, the Spirit of the Lord came upon me and anointed me for the meeting. I was impressed to attend to first things first and needed to clarify with Daniel as to why the Lord was doing what he was doing. I knew it was about Kingdom Business and pertaining to Daniel’s calling or ministry, so I asked him what his ministry is.

While I feel that he was pretty sure about how God intends to use him he said that he wasn’t sure. I told him that I felt led to tell him about how God would use him and cautioned him to seek further confirmation from the Lord. I told him that he is to be a giver and more specifically a giver that will be used to fund Churches. But not in an ordinary way. I told him that his checks were to be in the $100,000 to $1,000,000 category. That just as an example.

By now Daniel is recording this Prophetic Utterance that is coming from On High on his iPhone. I advised Daniel that it is important to remember that this whole process is about God and that God only is to receive the Glory. I advised him as to his responsibility to discern what is and what isn’t good ground as he sews into Kingdom Work — that he should look for people, who like him, has a heart after the Lord.

It was about then that I asked him if I could borrow a pen. I wanted to sketch out what I saw in the dream to present it to him. I had already described it to him verbally. Once I completed the sketch (on a paper towel) and showed it to him, he reached for his Residential Development Grid Design Map (a layout of his plans) and it was for the most part exactly as I had described and drawn.

He felt strongly that he should keep the paper towel drawing and that it should be framed along with his official plan.

So why is God orchestrating these events like this? Well, one of the things that Daniel brought up was that he felt as if the Lord didn’t want him to borrow money in order to complete the subdivision. By the way, the home that are to be built are to be like those that are built here in the USA with prices apparently starting at about $400,000.

I know that God has done at least two things here. Daniel knows that the Lord has his eyes on him and he should be assured that he needn’t be concern about funding of the project as the Most High will see that funding is done. I admonished him that he should move forward with all confidence and told him, that his bank account has the backing of Heaven. Pretty sure that that was the Holy Spirit talking.

As for me, the dreamer, the Lord has recently given me some instructions and some mandates. He has shown me some visions of some of the things that I must needs to do. By allowing me to participate in this Word of Wisdom, Exhortation and Prophecy toward Daniel and having shown me these things to come ten years in advance I am given a gentle nudge and great assurance that I should move forward with my assignment doubting nothing.

 

 

 

 

KNOCK, KNOCK – JUST A QUIET SATURDAY MORNING

Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house stood toward the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar.
Then brought he me out of the way of the gate northward and led me about the way without unto the utter gate by the way that looketh eastward; and behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ankles.
Again, he measured a thousand and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again, he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins.
Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over. (Ezekiel 47:1-5). 

And it shall happen afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. (Joel 2:28-29). 

In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, if any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
(But this spoke he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) (John 7:37-39). 

 

During the first week of February 2019, I had a dream in which it seemed like a quiet Saturday morning. I and a couple of my family members were just talking, getting coffee, and working on breakfast – you know, Saturday morning stuff. 

Our house was built on an incline or down-sloping hill. As I looked out of a side window, I saw water rushing down the side of the house. A great rain event had occurred. The level of the water was high and was a cause for concern. 

Just as I was communicating my concern to my family, there was a knock on the front door. I had some concern as there was already water coming into the house between the threshold and door. I nonetheless opened the door to let the person at the door in after discovering that It was someone that we knew. 

I opened the door and pulled the person in fast and closed the door. By then the water was a foot or more deep inside the house. The dream was over. 

The above scriptural passages came to mind. The onslaught of Water near and in my house is none other than the Holy Spirit. 

Further, increasingly I am coming to understand that a “house” in a dream oftentimes is referring to one’s body, a spiritual house as it were. 

Noteworthy, too is the fact that many theologians agree that the end time is at hand. Is eminent. The outpouring of the Spirit of God (the Holy Spirit) is to be expected right about now. Signs and wonders are become manifest. 

  

 

 

 

BE KIND TO STRANGERS!

Views: 203

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. (Hebrews 13)  

Last night I dreamt that we were visiting out of town to attend a stadium ball game. For some reason I had to leave the game and attend to an errand. 

The setting for the event was a large city. I was not familiar with the city and was having some difficulty finding my way back to the venue. 

As I made my way back, I encountered a person whose intent it was to rob me or do me harm otherwise. He had a gun. Somehow, I managed to get away from that person with the help of a stranger. 

Still trying to make my way back to the stadium and from the higher vantage point that I was at currently at, I could look downward and see it.    

As I travel on in the direction of the park, I spotted a church off to my right. I could hear that they were having praise and worship and I was impressed that their service was anointed. 

I would have liked to visit the church, but I needed to proceed to get back to my party at the game. The complex was not now visible from where I was but traveling in the perceived direction of the desired position I moved forward. 

I came upon a park-like location near where I expected the stadium to be and encountered an old man. He was the friendly sort and was just hanging out at that location. I was now disappointed as I thought for sure that I was close to the stadium complex, though I could not see it. 

Shortly thereafter another person that also was looking for the stadium appeared and was dumbfounded as was I. 

The old man, from whom pure love emanated, smiled at us, and pointed across the street and there was the stadium complex in all its Glory. Our eyes had been opened. 

What does it all mean? Long story short, the Lord is providing me with more assurance and encouragement pertaining to my relationship to the Local Assembly (the Church) and is showing me how that I will from time to time need to travel from the Assembly to other locations and will experience resistance and danger but will have the ever-present Wisdom of the Holy Spirit and protection of the Angels. 

That I will experience other Churches of like precious  faith  during my travels and shall be encouraged by the same. That there will be times when I will not clearly see a sure victory or that thing which I hope for and must rely upon Faith to walk by rather than sight. 

I love and praise God for sharing with me!!! 

 

He Has Done It Again! (A Two-fer)

Views: 207

Disclaimer: Some of the content of this post depicts violence and may be disturbing to some.

Last night I dreamt the following regarding a young man that I know. In the dream he was preparing to drive off to a destination. He was in a large parking lot.

Beyond the lot where he was there was a gun battle pursuing that was beyond his ability to hear. I noticed that he was once struck from behind by what appears to have been a superficial perforating bullet. Not fully knowing what had happened he turned around and after seeing that there was a problem was stricken again. As he was about to run for cover, he was again hit by a projectile in the back and he went down. I was devastated.

As I was now awake, I knew immediately that the Holy Spirit was bringing to my attention some impending danger to the young man and I immediately began to pray. As I recall, I prayed in the understanding (English) and I prayed in tongues. Praying gives God authority to act in the natural realm.

Since I now know that the Holy Spirit won’t show you impending danger unless He is at the ready to intervene on your behalf (or on the behalf of the  person in need of the intervention) and after praying I was confident that this matter was (or was to be) taken care of. I also fully knew that in due time the Lord would reveal to me the circumstances confirming the matter. I went back to sleep.

Part 2: Upon gong back to sleep I had another dream. In this dream, the same young man of the part one dream is the subject. He is again about to get into his car to go to a destination. As he approaches his car he encounters a very menacing dog – a bulldog or pit-bull perhaps. The young man stood his ground but the dog continued to advance. That is when I went into action. I had some kind of cushiony object attached to a stick in my hand and I charged after the dog with it.

The dog retreated and I surmised and suggested to the standers-by that it was ill and should be taken to the doctor (vet). The young man safely jumped into his car and went about his business.

Do you see what just happened? The Holy Spirit (Jesus Christ Himself) alerted me to an impending occurrence of certain danger so I could ask Him and give him permission to intervene. Because of His Caring Spirit, He not only managed the matter but chose not to have me wait until a later date for assurance of that fact.

The Lord revealed to me in back to back dreams a problem and its resolution.

As a side note; I had a brief conservation with the young man this morning and was able to determined that in fact he had been encountering spiritual warfare and had also received confirming word from the Lord releasing a burden that he had been carrying.

If you are reading this, it is meant to be a lesson to you and assurance that Gods desire is to be closer to us than a friend and that if sought, He will be found. No weapon formed against you shall prosper!

 

Blue, Yellow and White

Views: 907

In a previous post I talked about a dream that I had in which during my visit to a church while I spent a moment seated in the foyer the palms of my hands began to change colors. 

I said that initially they turned blue, and I mentioned how they also had texture that was like a low cropped fur. My hands then turned yellow and after that they turned white. Lastly, my hands returned to their original color and texture. But now there was power in my hands. I know now, too, that the more appropriate way to voice this is to say that there was Power through my hands. 

I pondered the meaning of the colors for some time and am now satisfied as to what they symbolize. Biblically speaking, blue is thought to be symbolic of Jesus Christ, Healing and Authority. Blue is the most frequently mentioned color in the Bible.  

Yellow is symbolic of Fire (Holy Ghost Fire) for purifying, burning away impurities and for Anointing and/or Power.  

White is representative of Purity, Glory and Brightness and thought to symbolize God the Father and Godliness. White is the third most referenced color in the bible behind red. The presented interpretations should not be considered a complete list of those possible for the referenced colors. 

So, you see, healing and delivering folks by the laying on of hands brings the Whole of the Godhead into their lives. The Authority, Power and Glory of God leaves no crevice for illness, injury, or demonic spirit to hide or abide with them. 

Here is the referenced dream.2 

 

LIEGE revisited

Views: 374

Several years ago I had a dream or perhaps a vision in which the only message was the word LIEGE.
Now this is a word that at that time I was not familiar with so I did what any self-respecting dream enthusiast would do – I googled it. So, as a side note do know that Liège is a province of eastern Belgium. Formerly ruled by independent prince-bishops, it became a part of the Netherlands in 1815 and of Belgium in 1830. It is situated along the Meuse River.

Now as you probably know, Liege speaks to a relationship between a Lord and His servant or Vassal. More specifically the concept is relative to Feudal Law and the responsibility that the two parties have to one another. On the surface, one is likely to think of the “Lord Liege” as the dominate party in the relationship and this is reasonable as the Lord is the one with the stuff.

As we further consider this relationship, though, we understand that the Lord is expressly dependent upon His vassals (liegeman) to help Him run things. They are mutually reliant upon each other. The word liege is both a noun and an adjective in it’s use.
Feudalism is also described as the dominant social system in medieval Europe, in which the nobility held lands from the Crown in exchange for military service, and vassals were in turn tenants of the nobles, while the peasants (villeins or serfs) were obliged to live on their lord’s land and give him homage, labor, and a share of the produce, notionally in exchange for military protection.

So where am I going with all this? Well it was not difficult for me to ascertain that what my Lord (Jesus Christ) was showing me in this dream is that we are in a mutually beneficial relationship. Specifically He was demonstrating that He needs me (and you if you are in Him) to understand His responsibility in our relationship and He not only needs me to hold up my part but that I must be sure to hold Him responsible to do is His part.

So let’s be clear; Jesus Christ is Lord and God. He is Sovereign. I am just telling you what He told me. We must know what his responsibilities are to us and hold Him responsible. We too need to know what it is He needs of us and move forward in those things. Do know that our relationship with him avails to us all the resources of heaven inclusive of heaven’s military.

Somebody say Praise The Lord!

35th Place

Views: 277

Streets and roads etc. generally use a naming convention that describes the nature of the road. For example, street usually means a public way that has buildings on both sides of it. They run perpendicular to avenues. 

Place designates a road or street that has no throughway—or leads to a dead end. 

Last night I dreamt that I was returning a car to a friend and was instructed to park it at a certain address on 35th Place. As I parked the car, I was approached by a person of Asian descent who questioned whether I was parking the car at the correct address (was I sure that I wanted 35th pl). In the past I have made the mistake of going to an address on 35th Street or Lane or Road. You see where that is going, right? 

The dream was over. I pondered the meaning of the dream. A dream can carry more than one meaning or interpretation. As soon as I picked up my Bible this morning, I knew that the Lord was instructing me to read Psalm 35. 

Lately, I have been migrating closer and closer to the Lord. I am experiencing greater communion with Him and receiving just a flood of illumination, revelation, and inspiration. 

I am moving into a season where I will be sharing a lot about how God ministers to his darlings through dreams. My work regarding Speaking in Tongues and The Spiritual Gifts goes on as well. 

Just to be sure, when I think of a street designated Place I usually think of the abbreviated form or Pl. So, 35th Pl.- 35 Psalm. Click here. 

My enthusiasm level is high this morning.
