KILL THE HEAD! (CRACK HIS KNOGGIN)

Views: 139

Bruise the Head

Right around the middle of this month I dreamed that I was venturing around (in the sky) when I began to approach three demons. They were a family of sorts attached in a web; like that of a spider. The head demon and the fiercest looking one was at the top of their triangle-like formation.

I hate demons, so I headed in their direction to check them out. When they saw me coming the two demons that were at the bottom of the formation peeled off leaving the head guy alone.

Now our pattern from the Bible for dealing with demons is clear as Jesus always confronted them head on. A few examples are: 1. in Mark chapter one vs. 23-27 he cast a demon out of a man in the Synagogue in Capernaum.

2. Matthew, Mark, and Luke document the Lord casting out a legion of demons from the demoniac who lived among the tombs of Gerasene and yet another details Jesus casting a demon out of a Greek woman’s daughter after her much insisting. This from Matthew15 and Mark 7. There are also other accounts.

Back to the story. I made a beeline toward the remaining demon and began to batter it on the head with my weapon, a Sword (Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God). I struck at that head until it was all broken. I had crushed the crown of its’ skull. The demon was destroyed and drifting away into the distance. How is that for manifold wisdom?

I looked around for the rest of its party, but they were clean out of sight!

 

 

 

YOU ARE THE POLICE!

Views: 143

On 05/25/2021 I dreamt that when I returned home one night, there were three intruders there. A fight ensued. I fought them off with a sword injuring them and forcing them outside. 

As I continued to fend them off, I shouted to standers by to “call the police.” I shouted this several times. The dream was over. 

As I pondered “what means this Lord?” I felt the Lord saying, “YOU ARE THE POLICE.” 

So, what does it mean? I instantly understood that the dream was a friendly reminder about Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:” 

This we do when wrestling with principalities and powers. 

Further, Ephesians 3:10 says that the manifold wisdom of God is to be made known unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places by the church. 

 Lastly, Luke 9:1-2 says “Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. 

And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.” The King of Heaven authorizes us (The Church) keep the peace on earth “as it is in Heaven.” 

Emblems, Demons and Casting Them Out

Views: 167

Initially in this dream, I saw a lady who was in possession of an emblem engaged in a negotiation with a man who was interested in buying it from her. My first thought was that she should counter his first offer.

Then, another man came on the scene and showed an interest in buying the emblem. He was a flashy dresser and already had several very pretty emblems around his neck.

He was very anxious to buy the emblem that the woman had and gave the impression that price was no object.

Next scene: the lady started to complain of pain in her abdomen, left side. She said that there was something moving in her abdomen. She was obviously in great pain.

I asked her if I could pray for her and so did. She had showed that she would work wholeheartedly with me. She was enthusiastic about it. This was a strong sign of her faith. I laid my hand on her body where the thing could be plainly seen to be moving. I could feel it moving.

I rebuked the thing and commanded in the Name of Jesus Christ that it die and be flushed from the body of the lady. We prayed very aggressively against the thing, she, and I.

Soon I notice that the thing was not moving. Shortly after that I notice that it could no longer be felt. I pronounce her healed of that disorder.

There is still the problem of the emblem. Largely emblems can be more problematic than we know. Many of them come with a spirit.

The truth is that the lady in my dream may have been in possession of a thing that did not want to be evicted (in that it was connected to the emblem) and so raised a fuss.

Did you know that even the cross finds its origins in pagan traditions? I am not saying to toss you Cross but do consecrate It by prayer in the name of Jesus Christ. See you Pastor about this.

If I were to give advice to the lady in the dream as to what to do with the emblem, it would be that she consults a metallurgical engineer to melt the thing down.

Glory be to Jesus Christ our Lord for showing forth this Light!

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

Views: 602

A few days ago, I dreamt that I was gathering the mail from my now deceased father-in-law’s mailbox. The mailman 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?” Wasn’t 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 didn’t know who the other one belonged to. I guess 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 very large pile of green, he said to me sternly, “give me what belongs to me.”

Now, there were other persons in the room. Some were siting 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 is the room.

These folks were worker associates of his. They apparently 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” basically means that the tithes and offerings is not a thing of the past but is ongoing. No change.

Read Malachi chapter 3.

In last night’s dream I was given a badge. That was it. No gun.  

We know that the badge is a metaphor but what does it mean? In the context of the dream, I understand it to be a “grant of authority”. Further, in the context of what you are most likely to hear me speak about, this Authority is that which is delegated by Him Who sits on His Throne beyond the firmament. His instructions to one group:  

Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.  

And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. (Luke 9:1-2)  

Those guys must have had badges. Not necessarily the ones that you pin onto your shirt pocket but the kind that shines forth as a Bright Light or comes forth as Fire for certainly the diseases and devils referenced in the following passage were arrested.  

And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. (Luke 10:17)  

Please expect to see a follow-up to the interpretation of this dream.  

Jesus Christ is Lord!  

APPETENCIOUS

Views: 251

Do you know this word, appetencious? Neither did I until God showed it to me in a dream.

In October of 2006 I dreamt that I was in the bank to get a check. Apparently some bad checks has been drawn on the account and I had to go around and around with the fellow in the bank to convince him that I hadn’t written those checks demanding that he provide me with the check that I needed.

Finally he said “okay here is the check but I am going to make it out to APPETENCIOUS.”  This made me mad (mad not good) so I told him that I would not take a check made out that way and I left the bank without the check. I thought to get the necessary funds some other way. Dream over.

From time to time the Lord will give me a word in a dream, usually one that I am not familiar with, that I know is intended to teach me something. For this reason, I inquired of the Lord as to what he was saying to me by using that word in the dream.

I found that the dream had complexities. Let’s look at the definition of the word appetence from dictionary.com first, means:

intense desire; strong natural craving; appetite.
instinctive inclination or natural tendency.
material or chemical attraction or affinity.

So what does one thing have to do with the other? Here is how I see it. My aim was to acquire a check, for whatever the reason. I was adamantly opposed to compromise my wish to have the check just as requested and I left the bank without a check instead.

It appears that the Lord’s message to me is that He recognizes or that I should recognize the passion and compassion that is in my heart to fulfill that which I am called to complete pertaining to Kingdom Business. I have no desire to, neither will I, compromise that which I am appointed to do.

Last week about this time I was right in the middle of a Healing and Deliverance class in Durban, South Africa. Instruction was being given regarding casting out devils and commanding bodies to be healed and made whole in the name of Jesus Christ.
Healing and Deliverance Ministry should be available in every Christian Church inclusive of the work being done outside of the local Assembly.
The instructor Val Wolff posted some pictures and so I am inserting them below. That’s me in the blue shirt.

Tonight we will have a visiting minister at our Church. Last night (early this morning) I dreamt about the service.

I dreamed that from the very moment the minister (let’s call her Joan) entered the sanctuary the Holy Spirit fell — means was manifest. The nature of It was like only what I have heard of in the past. It was as a heavy cloud.

The folks (Saints mostly) were behaving as if they were under the influence. They behaved in an unorderly fashion (lovingly unorderly). The whole room was affected.

As I am an usher, my job is to minister comfort and order and to remain on the administrative side of the service and so that is what I did to the best of my ability.

Whole families were ministered to by the administration of the Holy Spirit. It was a wonderful thing.

I am headed there now!

And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.
And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Lord will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.                                                                  And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
( 2 Kings 2:1-3, 11-13)

In February 0f 2007 the Lord spoke 2 Kings chapter 2 to me. Upon refreshing my memory regarding this scriptural passage, I understood that it is important to have a mentor (spiritual father or mother) and that it is important to stay near them, lest they be taken up in your absence.

Additionally, that night I dreamed that I was taking a karate class and that the instructor had to leave and instructed me that I was to take over the class. I told him that I was not experience enough to take over the class. He instructed me that he would help me and that I would be well able to take over.

Now, here it is 12 years later and I believe that the Lord is about to launch me into a level of ministry that I can in no wise handle on my own. I am now reminded of this scripture:

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

This particular dream has some very detail symbols for an interpretation that I can not divulge now but am prayerful that I may revisit it and open it up soon.

On October 10, 2002 I dreamed that I was in a setting with a group of people when suddenly a big Rottweiler dog came and grabbed a baby and began to shake it violently. I rebuked it and commanded it to let the baby go and so it did.

Most of the other people there were terrified. Then the dog grabbed the head — yes head. Now it didn’t have a body. I rebuked the dog again and commanded that it loose the head and so it did and began to squirm away.

Interestingly as the dog passed by me and its hinder part became visible to me I could see that the rear part of its body was crippled. It was literally dragging the back half of its body on the ground. It put on the vicious front appearance. Boy did it look intimidating! A clear example of all bark and no bite.

The interpretation of this dream has to do with some events that happened at a Church that I once attended. The baby was the church. The baby’s head was the Pastor. The Rottweiler was the demonic church doctrine of the overseeing church.

Things did not end well.

RUSH HOUR

Views: 220

On the referenced night I dreamed about being with another couple in which the wife was pregnant. We were in a high place (like on a spiral staircase) and the lady wanted to get down and thought to jump. I told her not to jump because she could hurt herself and/or the baby.

She jumped anyway and surprisingly her husband caught her as if it was nothing. Also in the dream PG&E offered my spouse a job — and for some reason I was willing to take a position as a sales person for some company (for the right salary).

Lastly — in the dream — I was shaking hands with Chris Tucker, the actor from the movie Rush Hour with Jackie Chan. Dream over.

Here is the likely interpretation of the dream. The high place is the level of the calling. The wife is the saint (be it me or you). The baby is the new ministry assignment.

This is all about one running away from the purpose of God. The husband is the Bridegroom (the Lord). Here, the Bridegroom catches the Bride (the saint) as it is a small thing for God to perform His purpose in us.

The movie itself has nothing to do with the dream or interpretation of it. The symbol is the word rush. We are to move higher and higher as God fulfills His purpose in us. We must remain patient as He does so. We must not compromise or forsake that to which The father has called us for mammon. We need not be in a rush.

Do Your Job

Views: 247

Early this morning I had a dream. The setting of the dream was that of an office or workplace. The boss or supervisor of the business had found fault with the production and called for some improvement. 

The format or process of production needed tweaking and he wanted us to work overtime to initiate the new protocol. My job was to oversee and ensure that things were set in motion and to assure that there would be success. 

As I passed by the boss’s office, I saw that he had not gone home yet and that he wanted to be sure that we were getting the job done and getting it done right — before he left. He was seated at his desk with his feet up on it. 

I said to him “Sir you can go on home; we will get this done right.” He removed his feet from the desk, stood up and left. 

What does it mean? Here are a couple of scriptures and I will meet you on the other side with the interpretation: 

Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sinned from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. (1 John 3:7-9) 

And to make all men see what the fellowship of the mystery is, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. (Ephesians 3: 9-12) 

This dream is symbolic of us (The Church) not doing a particularly good job thus far pertaining to finishing the work of The Lord’s “destroying the works of the devil.” Further, as we complete this task we should go “making known to the enemy the manifold wisdom of God“. 

We should do our job and not have Him micromanage our every activity. His instructions are clear! 

Besides, remember that He said this: 

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. (John 14: 1-3). 

Let us do this! 

 

I KNOW FOR SURE! A DREAM COME TRUE

Views: 692

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.

 

 

 

 

Round Turn and Two Half-Hitches Knot-Frayed Knot

Views: 260

Last night — actually, first thing this morning — I dreamed that I was trying to tie a knot. It was the knot that is referenced in the subject of this post. There are at least two dream symbols in the subject.

I suppose that this knot is primarily use by boaters but certainly there are other applications. It is an easy knot to tie and solid in terms of meeting the typically desired result.

Essentially, you tie the rope around and around a post (for example) and then under, around and through the rope, and again. Yea, “what did he say?” Well, just look at this and remember to hit the back key when done.

Here is the thing. The rope that I was using in my dream was frayed. As I tried to complete the tying of my knot the frayed part of the rope kept getting in the way. I needed a longer rope. I did not complete the tying of the knot in the dream.

Did you hear what I just said? “Tying of the Knot”. Search that one out on your own time!

As I studied this dream out (which was not my initial intent), I ran across this definition in Vocabulary.com:

The word fray is all about friction. A frayed rope has been rubbed so much its fibers are wearing away. People experiencing friction are involved in a fray, or a noisy fight.

This is one of those dreams that I seriously thought to dismiss upon it’s occurrence but the clarity of it was a sure sign that I should pray and ask God for the interpretation. It certainly pertains to my personal life and was sent for guidance. It requires further meditation and prayer on my part.

If you are reading this, then this is a very important lesson for you. Namely, we must take all of our dreams seriously. This applies especially to those that come so vividly to us. We must isolate out the dream symbols. Ponder and research them. Consider how they relate to our lives, past, present and future.

This particular dream was so simple, so filled with dream symbols and so important for my well being.

Dreams are the most important and most squandered of our communications from God.

 

 

The Devil, The Church, The Holy Spirit & Me

Views: 201

On 11/27/2018 I had a three-part dream. I dreamt that there was a visitor at our house. He was initially received as an ordinary guest. 

Soon thereafter, I noticed him observing a female child with great interest as she took a shower. I admonished him for doing so and requested that he move on, and so he did. This was part one of the dream. 

In part two of the dream, I observed our guest again watching intently as the young girl took a shower. This time I advise the visitor that he was to leave the premises immediately and never to return. 

In part three of the dream, I observed two men from my vantage point on a second level balcony arriving in a pickup truck down below. They had come to retrieve a bucket that I had prepared for them. I must tell you that preparation of the bucket required some welding. 

As I grabbed the bucket that was full of water from the counter and proceeded to carry it out to them, I noticed that there was water leaking from it through a hole that was about the size of a quarter. 

I was disturbed that the bucket was leaking and knew that I could not deliver it to the men in that condition. As I pondered the situation, the dream was over. 

While it is reasonable to assume that this dream has some application pertaining to my own life, let me tell you what I believe the Holy Spirit would have me share with you regarding it. 

The young girl is the Church. The visitor is the devil. Looks like I am standing in as a leader in the Church and have done a poor job of teaching the laity regarding the Holy Spirit. Instead of Him (The Holy Spirit) overflowing the bucket, His Power is being diminished by the breech in the bottom of the bucket. 

This phenomenon of the enemy creeping in unawares is widespread and residual damage could remain after he has been dealt with. Continuous vigilance is imperative. 

 

BATTLE STATIONS!

Views: 186

From time to time I get a notification from the Holy Spirit that I need to pray. He notifies me in a variety of ways. Sometimes in the context of a dream He mentions a specific name or names. I know that my task is to call out those names in prayer before the Father.

At other times He shows me situations or events in which He wishes to intervene and needs authorization from a saint or perhaps even a non-saint to do so. This is because the Lord needs the authorization from those to whom dominion on the earth was given – mankind.

Last night’s notification or call to arms came to me in a way in which the Lord has used before. It was the sound of the doorbell ringing. Like Samuel, when he received his first communication from the Lord, I didn’t understand initially what meant this symbolic request to pray was. I did eventually catch on.

Last night’s Battle Station alarm, I am reasonably sure, had to do either directly or indirectly with the fact that Hurricane Florence was making landfall on the North Carolina coast. The Lord desired to get involved in one way or the other.

The truth of the matter is that I don’t know what the Lord was handling. That being the case, then how did I know what to pray for. I didn’t but the Spirit did.

Speaking in Tongues as the Spirit gives the Utterance is the answer.

 

A Fish Out of Water

Views: 220

Last night I dreamed that I was down at the coast. I was on some sort of platform that was adjacent to the water – a dock of sorts. I am not sure about whether I was fishing or not.

Suddenly there was a big (really big) fish up on the dock and it was trying to get me. It was big enough that if It would have been able to maneuver around a little better I would have been a goner. It’s mouth was big enough to swallow me whole.

I recall striking the monster fish on it’s lips with an object. I was fighting for my safety.

Some of the symbols in this dream are obviously the fish, why it was out of the water, the dock, why was the fish trying to absorb me, the limited ability of the fish to move, the actual location or setting means something that needs to be deciphered and there are other considerations as well.

As I believe the dream to be of the Holy Spirit, the essential question is how does it pertain to my calling to promote the Spiritual growth of the Church.

Well that didn’t take long! Two nights ago I got a call from a publishing company. Stone something or another; a nice fellow by the name of Marcus D calling to let me know that my book, Utterance, Speaking in Tongues and Spiritual Gifts had come to his desk recommended by several book scalpers to have good success potential. They (Stone) were going to help me to get the book exposure and even have it displayed at the London Book Fair. There was even talk that perhaps a traditional publisher would pick it up and offer $35,000 to $250,000 signing bonus.

All indications are that the company is a scam.

Thank you Holy Spirit for the “heads up”.

 

 

Blue, Yellow and White

Views: 912

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: 375

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!

Sheep and Lambs

Views: 241

This dream starts with me being in a city’s downtown area. It was raining and there were portable shelters available. They were like umbrellas. I was able to move one to an area that I chose to stand. I was waiting for public transportation.

While I waited, I noticed that there were Christmas decorations present there in the city, so I took some pictures of them with my mobile phone to send to a friend who lives in California. It was then that I noticed that my phone was broken. Half of it was missing and the face of it was gone exposing the inner workings.

Fast forward. I am now in a country setting. Feels like Colorado. I approached this farm/ranch house to see if I could use the phone.

As I approached the house and was walking up the long walkway the sons of the owner came up behind me and one of them picked pocked, my wallet. He was not a particularly good pick-pocketer though because I realized right away what had happened and was able to wrestle my wallet away from him.

I continued and entered the home where I met the owner/father and after telling him that one of his sons had just lifted my wallet. His reprimand to his son was quite mild. I explained to him that I needed to use his phone.

Now I am again at the front of the property where there are two groups of sheep. They were in two distinct stages of development. One group was to be delivered inside of (onto) the property and the other was to be taken away by me.

There appeared now a third party who was to take the in-going sheep into the premises. The outgoing sheep were to be transferred to the vessel in which the in-going sheep were once they were taken out. I asked the Third-Party Person to be sure that the vessel had plenty of water when He brought it back to be provided to the sheep that would be taken away.

Interpretation (partial):

The Rain is the presence of the Holy Spirit. The shelters/umbrellas are spiritual covering. I am transitioning from one Spiritual covering to another. The mention of public transportation speaks to the sometimes fluidity of life in the Spirit.

The lambs and sheep are the people all saved but at various levels of spiritual development.

I expect more revelation relating to this dream and will bring it to you when it is received. It might do some of you a world of good to know why the Lord started this dialogue with me in the first place. I may be shedding some light on that as well.

To God be the Glory!

 

Not In MY Neighborhood

This dream was communicated to me by a young man who along with his brother is in the process of starting a new church. He says that the dream started with him walking out side of his house and looking into the sky where he saw an eagle flying overhead. He said that he turned around and saw fighter jets and a big military plane with paratroopers jumping from it.

The paratroopers started to uproot new plants or bushes from the property. He said that he approached them and asked them who was in charge and what were they doing. He was told that some other man owned that property and that they (the brothers) were not allowed to plant there.

This dream is a warning by the Holy Spirit to these prospective preachers that the area where they are planning their church has a demonic presence and that don’t want no church there (yes, no church).

This was a two-part dream. See the other part here.

I Can Do That With My Eyes Closed

Last Friday the nice gentleman who cuts my hair told me about a dream that he had. We talk a lot about the things of the Bible when I visit with him. He is not yet Filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in Tongues.

He said that he dreamt that he was in circus-like setting (atmosphere) and that Tongues came pouring out of him. He said that he recalls laying hands on a woman, a magician of some sort. The Tongues came pouring out and he felt as if he were not in control of his body.

Additionally, he said that the ringmaster was nearby.

He said that he also remembers speaking to the lady in a very stern way and admonishing her that the Lord is saying that His people need deliverance, and they are not living the way in which He intended.  These words were, too, pouring out of him.

I believe that this for my friend is the genesis of his Spiritual Development to a higher level of Baptism with the Holy Spirit, Speaking in Tongues, Spiritual Gifts and Ministry of The Great Commission work.

His actions in the dream were Speaking in Tongues, and Interpretation of Tongues which, as you know, equals Prophecy.

Symbolically, the circus is the world, the woman is the church, and the ringmaster is the Satan.

The prophetic utterance is a reminder to the Church of Her charge to conduct The Great Commission (Mark 16: 17-18).

STRINGS ATTACHED

Views: 236

Yesterday at Church the Pastor talked about a dream that he had relating to his wife. He dreamed that he was having spiritual warfare with two invisible entities. These spirits were waging an attack on his wife, and he was doing his best to fend them off.  

One of the foes was more aggressive than the other and Pastor fought furiously with it, even to the point of biting it. While the battle went on the second demon maintained a more restrained position (for some reason).  

Later in the discussion we surmised that the dream had something to do with Pastor having encouraged his wife to move forward with some ministry endeavors that she desired. Ministry that the enemy preferred that she did not do. Pastor was desirous that the congregation would pray regarding the matter. 

Upon hearing the dream, I suggested that we should pray without delay. So, we prayed, rebuking the devil, and proclaiming victory in Jesus Christ over such devices or harm intended by their spiritual wickedness. 

Immediately after having prayed, one of members present announced that he had a vision during the prayer and would tell of it. He said that he saw in the vision that Pastor’s wife had had many strings attached to her like those of a puppet. He said that he then saw a Hand from Heaven begin to cut the strings, freeing her and releasing the burden of the strings. We rejoiced in our hearing. 

But there was more to come. Immediately thereafter another person from the Church came forward with a prophetic word addressing the matter.  

She said that she had had an impression of having seen a large spaceship. It was modular. It was burdened. She related it to some contemporary cartoon or similar media. Point being, Pastors wife was able to begin to “push buttons” jettisoning some of the modules eliminating the burden to fly freely. 

This is a clear example of God allowing danger to be revealed in a dream so that prayer could be offered to bring about safety. He did also graciously show that the prayer had been answered. 

 

BREAK EVERY CHAIN

Views: 275

Yesterday I popped into the Publix Market to pick up a couple of sandwiches that I ordered online. At the check-out counter there was a person in front of me. He was an elderly gentleman. He was bowed over and moved slowly – very much so. I had compassion in my heart for him. Once he was checked out, I was led to share a thought with the check-out lady. I had to ask her to move her ear in closer to me as the gentleman was still close by and, also there was a nice lady in the line behind me.

So, I whispered to her that the day when those of us in the church will lay hands on the sick (such as this man was) and see them recover (Mark 16:18) is near at hand. I can most often discern the flavor of those with whom I am interacting – as to whether they are Christians. But we must have been thinking the same thing as she displayed the most genuine smile and gave a gracious “thank you” comment. All the while she was working  on getting someone to help the man out to his car.

Where is the dream? you ask. Here we go. Last night I dreamt that a person who was once a client  of ours stopped in to complain about something that he felt did not work out as he expected in the work that we had done for him. I started to do research to see what the matter was by contacting those who were staff at the time. As I worked at trying to get the situation resolved, I noticed that the man was in stocks, both hands and legs. By now, he was starting to break down and I was able to see that his concern had nothing to do with a previous business transaction but rather with great current distress.

My initial thought was to try to find out where this person had escaped from and to get them on the phone so that they could come and pick him up. That thought was short lived. By now, he had started to weep uncontrollably. Feeling compassion, I embraced him from behind and he went down onto his knees. Shortly thereafter I really feeling concern for him, suggested that he put his legs out in front of him to be more comfortable. My concern was not to get him back into a lockup but to get him free.

This scripture was immediately brought to my attention. “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised To preach the acceptable year of the Lord” (Luke 4:18-19).

What does it all mean? It means that the Church will now recognize and receive the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit and will operate within His Power.

Break Every Chain. Shackles.

 

AQUARIUS (THE WATER BEARER)

When Christ was about to leave this world, He said to His followers, “It is expedient for you that I go away; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you…..He will guide you into all truth…..He will show you things to come….He shall glorify me: for He shall receive of mine and shall show it unto you” (John I6).

That promise included all the divine life-power issuing from the mediation of Christ for the illumination, regeneration, and salvation of men — all the renewing, cleansing, comforting, and energizing grace for the gathering of the elect and the bringing of believers to eternal life and glory.

The Holy Ghost was in the world from the beginning, but here was the promise of a new and enlarged grant and endowment, to lift, nourish, and distinguish Christian believers.

The same was gloriously fulfilled on the day of Pentecost, when ” suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind and filled all the house where they were sitting; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”

And when the Jews mocked and derided, the sacred explanation was that Jesus, being raised up again from the dead and exalted to the right hand of God, and having so received of the Father, was now the Giver and Shedder forth of this marvelous power.

He is thus presented to our contemplation as the glorified Pourer-forth from heaven of the blessed waters of life and salvation; in other words, the true Aquarius, of whom the picture in the sign was the prophecy and foreshowing” (THE GOSPEL IN THE STARS).

Astrology, as is widely known in the world today, is a corruption of the truth about the signs (constellations) seen in the sky as the earth revolves counterclockwise on a line around the sun called the ecliptic.

Starting with Virgo (the real first sign of the zodiac) that is a virgin about to give birth and ending with Leo the Lion of the Tribe of Juda. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is what God revealed to us in the Bible here and here.

 

Where From

Views: 284

Dreams can be natural or supernatural. Some are inspired by God while others are generated by the devil. Beyond those which are produced by man’s physiological and psychological conditions, the rest are supernatural in origin. If one’s mind has been open to evil spirits his night dreams become for the most part just another form of the “pictures” he encounters during the day. The wicked unseen powers create pictures in the day and dreams in the night. To determine whether or not his dreams derive from the devil the believer simply should inquire of himself: is my mind usually passive? If so, these dreams are untrustworthy. Moreover, dreams and visions which God inspires enable man to be normal, peaceful, steady, full of reasoning and consciousness; but what the evil spirits precipitate are bizarre, rash, fantastic, foolish, and render a person arrogant, dazed, confused, and irrational (Watchman Nee, The Spiritual Man).

Barley Bread

“And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along. 

 And his fellow answered and said, this is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host. And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, arise; for the Lord hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.” (Judges 7:13-14) 

The above scripture is just one of many instances in the Bible where God used symbols to communicate with His people. In this case, Gideon, a “show me” kind of fellow was given added assurance that he would succeed in his assignment against the Midianites. 

Somehow this is my favorite dream story from the Bible – there are many to choose from. 

Tumbling barley bread – Nice! 

THIEVERY

Views: 337

On September 05, 2016, I dreamt that a thief was caught in the act of thievery. Fast forward to another scene in the dream and, I am suggesting to a preacher that he should step down (resign his position as Pastor). 

Meanwhile, I hear the Lord saying that “the thief is to be the new preacher.” It appears to me that the Lord is intent on doing some house cleaning and the thief in the dream is symbolic of one of the thieves that died on the cross next to the Lord. The Lord found his heart to be in the right condition to enter the Kingdom (Paradise) the same day as their crucifixion.  

“And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou come into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me in paradise.” (Luke 23: 42-43) 

“Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) 

I discern that my mandate here is to admonish the Shepherds to heed the Great Commission Instructions (Mark 16) just as they are spoken by the Lord and train their sheep in them before their candlesticks are taken away. 

Additionally, woe unto you of the Seminaries around the world that are turning out candidates in the name of Jesus Christ which are not Baptized by the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in Tongues. I say this with Authority. 

Speaking of admonitions, I am aware of what the bible says as to how we should regard preachers (Men and Women of God). 1 Chronicles 16:22 makes this abundantly clear and if that was not clear enough, Psalms 105:15 confirms the seriousness of this matter. Both verses read:  

“Touch not mine anointed and do my prophets no harm.” 

 

HEALING HANDS

Views: 477

Following the previously posted “BLUE HANDS” Dream I fell asleep again and had yet another dream. It was my hope to know more regarding the earlier dream. Having a “continuation dream” such as this is rare. 

The dream starts out with my being a janitorial person at a school or some similar facility. My job is to clean the rooms after each session. 

I am new in the job and not doing a particularly decent job. My supervisors are not pleased with my performance. They are, however, patient with me. 

At that job there was another worker, a lady, who had the gift of healing in her hands. 

Let me just say here that any gift of healing aside from that of Jesus Christ is not one that I would discuss. 

To continue the story, though, one of the other folks working with us was having some physical difficulty and asked the referenced lady if she would lay hands on him. She agreed to and when she did, I saw a physical reaction to the energy that was released into him, and he confirmed that he no longer had any discomfort. 

Upon seeing this I recalled my previous experience with the “laying on of hands” and thought to give it a go. I touched the person who was my immediate supervisor on the head and said, “be blessed.” He convulsed mildly he smiled approval and an attitude of peace. I did the same thing to, yet another near-by worker and they too had the same reaction. 

There was another one of the workers asleep in a bed. Remember, now, this is a dream! I proceeded to touch him, and he displayed that same gentle bodily convulsion and peaceful smile while continuing to sleep. 

What does it all mean? 

The bible tells us in the book of Mark 16:18 that one of the signs that would follow the believer is that they will lay hands on the sick and that they will recover. 

I personally hope and believe that these dreams are prophetic. I thank God for them. 

 

BLUE HANDS

Views: 582

I had this dream on the morning of 12/01/2017. I dreamt that I was driving to Church on a Sunday morning. I believe the setting to be Atlanta, Georgia. 

This was a church that I had previously visited but there was a tricky turn, and I ended up on the wrong road. As you know, we sometimes do irrational stuff in dreams as did I when I parked the car and started to walk; walking up to a Church that was not the planned one. 

 I entered the Church foyer and requested information. I sat down in the foyer next to a man and shared hellos. As I looked over the material that I had received, I noticed that the palms of my hands had turned blue. There was a texture to the blue. It was like a thin hairy or firry covering. 

To be sure I was not seeing things I asked the gentleman sitting next to me if he saw it and he said yes. At a second glance my hands had turned yellow (or amber, the color of fire), which we both saw. Then the color of my hands turned white and then back to their normal color. 

Next in the dream I was walking down the sidewalk back to my car. The nice man from the church was walking with me. As we passed two people walking in the opposite direction, I was led to touch one of them and found that there was power in my hands, which was evident by the physical reaction of both as I touched just one of them. 

 The dream was over, and I was awake. The time is about 6 AM. In a “first ever” I endeavored to go back to sleep to know more about these “Healing Hands.” 

 

YOUR DREAMS CAN MAKE YOU RICH

Views: 252

The Bible admonishes us to seek first after the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness; and promises that if we do that that “all these things” (worldly, natural, and even necessary things) will be provided for us. 

So primarily our focus and efforts should be in line with the Mind and Ways of Jesus Christ. 

I had an interesting dream last night. In the dream I encountered two people with whom I had a business relationship a few years ago. Remember now that whenever I have specific folks in a dream, I prioritize isolating and praying for them as a matter of habit to cover them regarding the entirety of their lives. 

Anyway, they had come to town, and I was meeting with them to try and sell them something as they were (in the dream) purchasing agents for their company. 

Time was running out and I had not been able to sale these folks anything in the way of typical office supplies etc. Finally, I said to them “well is there anything at all that your company needs to purchase because if there is, I am sure that I will be able to supply you with it.” 

So, one of the ladies said “well we do need to purchase a Zamboni“. 

So, without thinking, I said “well I can get you one of those. Just confirm your request and I will have it shipped. “ 

After having said that, I thought to myself “how am I going to do that?” So, I pondered it for a while. Remember now that I was dreaming all the while and this BLOG is about dreams. 

Continuing; now in the dream there appeared that unnamed person that you know, as I have mentioned Him before and for some reason, He had a baby with Him (you also know what that symbolizes). And He said, “why don’t you drop-ship the Zamboni?” I am in no way plugging drop-shipping nor do I have anything to do with Zamboni. 

This whole dream is symbolic of how the Holy Spirit (the unnamed Person) is encouraging us to pay close attention to Him in the practice of our vocations (babies) and that He will provide wisdom to us in our endeavors as we keep His business first. 

 

 

Who Told Me That!

Views: 262

The Reverend Leroy Jenkins is/was a television minister who is well known to minister miracles and healings. Some thought/thinks that he is a fraud. I am not dealing with that one way or the other here. He never did anything to me. 

Reverend Jenkins use to somehow know what was ailing the people who came to him for a miracle or a healing. He would ask the folks saying, “who told me that?” The folks use to always reply, God (or Jesus). 

What I would like to bring to light here that there are ways to have firsthand information regarding people, things, or events. This information is usually brought to us by invisible persons who place such in our minds or in our hearts (spirits). 

Familiar spirits are persons (invisible evil spirits) from antiquity up until now which go about broadcasting unfruitful words that cause confusion, chaos, division and yes even death. True historical stories are these as they were witnessed firsthand by the teller of them. Make no mistake this is evil work. 

The Word of Wisdom and The Word of Knowledge are entirely different resources, however. The Word of Wisdom is the prophetic divulgence by the Holy Spirit (God Himself) of an act or process that is related to a Kingdom action that is to take place. A good example of this (there are many) is the Hope of the coming Rapture of the Church. The Word of Knowledge relates to divulgence by God to a person (or persons) of information that could only be known through this Supernatural source and is given for the exhortation, edification and/or comfort of the believer. 

Sometimes when we dream, God gives us information that can be used for Kingdom Business. Remember, we are always to pray when we have a dream because it is likely that God needs our approval (authorization) to move forward with His desired action regarding Earthly things. Do not forget, He gave us Dominion and The Keys to The Kingdom of Heaven. 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FANCY DANCING HARLEY DAVIDSON

Views: 273

Last night I dreamt I had purchased a HOG (I think they still call them that). 

The bike, while new, had the little wheel in front like the old traditional chopper bike. There was this odd drape or mantle like garment that flew behind me. Over my head and over my shoulders. When I tugged on it there was greater power in motion. I am sure that revelation will follow. 

Worthy of note, is the fact that the little wheel on the front of the bike did not just roll as we went, but it danced. It went horizontal and parallel and just danced, danced, danced.

Well, anyway, I am riding along as happy-go-lucky as you please and I enter a neighborhood setting and encounter a group of young men that were hanging out in a park like place (vacant lot). Somehow, I found myself having a discussion with them when one of them pulled out a handgun and pointed it at me. 

Now, as I continue to mature naturally and in spirit and Spirit and Wisdom, I have little or no fear of dying as For me to live is Christ and to die is gain. 

So, I looked at one of the young gentlemen and said to him (as he looked to be more polished than the others and a leader of them) “aren’t you supposed to be in the Church helping the Preacher?” 

About that time the whole atmosphere changed in that encounter as this young gentleman was totally convicted as to his current activity and the spirit (Spirit?) of the entire group of gentlemen was changed to one of humbleness and reverence. The handgun was no longer present and now (right now while I am writing this) I understand how speaking by the Spirit can change people right on the spot. 

The dream was over, and my guess is that I jumped back on the bike and rode off into the sunset. 

  

 

More Clarity Regarding Understanding Dreams and Visions

Views: 730

As you might well imagine, I rely primarily on Bible related Dream stories as I endeavor to understand and interpret dreams. I find that dream symbols from the bible are excellent examples or models for us to use in interpreting our dreams today.

It must be said, though, that often in our dreams today the symbols that God uses are related contemporary things of our lives.

So, while the Bible is my number one choice as a reference guide for understanding dreams, I believe that the inserted book will be most helpful in helping you to understand what God is saying to you in your dreams. I have this author’s work in my private library.

 

“Kill and Eat”- Visions & Dreams & Trances & Angels & Voices, Oh My!

Views: 442

Not to mention the dream symbols found in this story. Long story short, Cornelius a righteous and giving Italian Centurion had a vision in which he saw that an Angel (which frightened him) had come to bring him a message from God that his giving and prayers had not gone unnoticed but had come up as a memorial before God. He was instructed to send for Peter (and told exactly where he would be) for further instructions. 

 As his men drew near to where Peter was residing, Peter fell into a trance in which he saw, as it were, a sheet lowered down from heaven that had all matter of unclean animals (Peter was Kosher you know) on it. God instructed Peter to “kill and eat”. 

Peter reminded God that he has never eaten an unclean thing. God admonished Peter not to call that which He has cleaned, unclean. He said this to Peter three times. Peter contemplated the vison as the vessel (sheet) was taken back into Heaven. 

So now, the Spirit advised Peter that there were folks at his door and that he should go with them “doubting nothing” as they were sent by Him. The men identified themselves as having been sent by Cornelius and were provided lodging for the night. 

The following day Peter and “certain brethren” of his went with Cornelius’s party back to Cornelius’s home (Caesarea) where Cornelius had invited a welcoming party that included his friends and relatives. 

Peter arrives and after some conversation with Cornelius he preaches the Gospel to these gentiles (the first gentiles to receive the Gospel) who are all saved and baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in Tongues. 

This story demonstrates the vast richness of “dreams and visions” and all the associated intricacies including the trance, direct communication from God (via the Holy Spirit and Angels), dream symbols (the unclean animals representing the gentiles) and certainly several others. 

 

LIEGE

Views: 567

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 its 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.

Can I get an Amen!
