A Dream
(Today’s message is one that is shared because it is prophetic in nature and it points to the duties and responsibilities of Believers as witnesses during these latter days.)
In an early-morning dream today, I find myself standing in one of my neighbor’s house holding a garden hose in my right hand. Water was gushing out powerfully. Suddenly as though the hose had a mind of its own, I began showering off the dirt everywhere in the kitchen. At one point an unusually large clock appeared on the wall. Again as though the hose had a mind of its own, I began spraying it with this water.
Interpretation – Occupy!
It was during prayer later this morning that the dream and the interpretive verses were brought to my remembrance:
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret…..But all things that are proved are made manifest by the light (truth) for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. **Redeeming the time** (spraying the clock in the neighbor’s house) because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise but understanding what the will of the Lord is. (Eph. 5:14-17)
These end-times are evil. And tragically, many are sleeping a death of slumber in this dark night of deception and sin. As Believers we are called not to fellowship with darkness but to redeem the time. To shine the Light of Truth when opportunity presents itself with the washing of the Word (Eph. 5:26; Ps. 119:105; Mat. 5:45-47) that is manifested through the operation of the Holy Spirit who Is Truth. (Jn. 16:7-15) Together, the Word and the Holy Spirit are a powerful witness that clean and refresh. Said briefly, it is the Holy Spirit who sprouts the living seeds of GOD’S Word in the hearts and minds of all who will faithfully receive It. Most importantly, it is GOD Himself who accomplishes and germinates this work! It is HIM who gives the increase through HIS end-time witnesses for HIS purposes. To GOD be all the glory!
Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building. (1 Cor. 3:5-9)
Note: As victorious Soldiers and born-again Witnesses, we must not be entangled with the affairs of this fallen world. Instead we are called to redeem the time by shining the Light of GOD’S Word and Spirit in the darkness.
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. (As Soldiers and Witnesses of the Faith, Believers must not be distracted by the enticements, allurements and entrapments of this fallen world. We have duties and responsibilities to fulfill to help advance the Kingdom and in preparation for the Lord’s return.) And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned (cannot be awarded the crown of victory with self efforts) except he strive lawfully (obedience to the Word and with the guidance of the Holy Spirit given to us with faith and belief through the finished works of Jesus Christ. Thank you Lord!) (2 Tim. 2:4-7)
I am hearing a Word of confirmation on this message. With praises and thanksgiving be to GOD always. Amen.
