Things are not what it seemed | Saturday, August 18, 2007
Last night, it was interesting for I dreamed the same dream twice in the same night. I dreamed a dream and I woke up and then I dreamed the same dream again and so I believed that God must be wanting to tell me something and so let me share with you what I have dreamed.
First of all, I dreamed that my friends and I were in a boat and we were sailing to a place where I did not even know the destination. We were so content to just sit in the ship and let the ship carry us to wherever it wants to go and all of a sudden, the weather turned out to be very dark where we could not see one another. Then there was a light and I thought we could see another ship and they seemed to be Christians as I felt it in my heart and through my eyes. Therefore, I was very glad to see them but then all of a sudden, they attacked us and it was only then I realized that they were the minions of the Enemy and they seemed to be gaining ground and they have killed and destroyed many of my friends and all seemed lost and in vain and we could only but lifted up our voices to cry in anguish and for help. Then it seemed that only a few friends and I were left and as the Enemy's minions prepared to destroy us for the last moment, we have no choice but to stand up against them and not even to fight or flee for there was no weapons given to us and no place to run. We can only stand up against their vicious onslaught and in a way, prepared ourselves to die.
But as the enemies came to us for the last time, there was a brill ant light that shines from above and dispelled all darkness away and in a way, the bright light consumed the enemies away and as we looked up, all is at peace and calm and we stared at each other as if we have just woken up from a bad dream. Then at that point, I woke up and then as I prepared to sleep, I knew within my heart that I will surely dream the same dream again. True enough, I dreamed the same dream and the same thing happened but now, it moved on to the second part.
We suddenly found ourselves in a church setting and it was filled with multitudes and multitudes of people and I recognized the pastor who was on the stage and he was praying so fervently for the nations of the world. It was at the height of his prayer that every knee bow and every tongue confesses their sins and prayed for repentance and it was so powerful that I could have wept over there for the power of the Holy Spirit was so strong and so might over there and the brilliant light that saves us from the enemies shine over in that congregation, of every nationality that gathered there and when I woke up, I felt a very strong prompting to write what i have seen and felt.
I felt that God was telling me that things doesn't appear the way it seemed and that the most important thing is that when evil tends to overwhelm you, to attempt to make you succumb and compromise, you need to stand up to its face, no matter how crippling it can be and God will deliver you out of that situation for God will never give you something more than you can bear. His light is always shining for us and the choice that is given to us is either to follow the Light or forsake it. Make a wise choice today.
