"The Disorderly House Dream
02-23-13"
I was in a house that
I knew was mine. It was disorderly and I was rearranging the furniture. I
picked up a baby crib and some of its furniture and brought it from an upstairs
room, to an area off of the kitchen downstairs. I then went back upstairs and
brought a chair down to put it in the living room. I moved some of the
furniture around in the living room to make room for more seating. Then I went
back upstairs for an easy chair. I picked it up and brought it down to set it
down in the place where I had made space for it. But when I came down, the
living room was full of men I had known from my past. Friends and relatives who
were from different time periods were all in the living room, and they were
rearranging the living room, before I came down. When I saw this, I was upset,
and I said you cannot move the furniture in this room. This is my house. The
one man smiled at me and said, well, we live here too. I said, fine, then
arrange it how you want to. I then got mad and threw down what I had in my
hands which was some coins, and stomped off upstairs. I then angrily sat down
on the edge of a bed in another room and cried, upset and frustrated, and then
it slowly dawned on me, this dream was spiritual, not natural, it was about the
things in my life that are contrary to who I really am. This house was me- my
spirit, soul and body! I said, They do not live here anymore! I then got up in
my dream, and went back downstairs, and walked up to all of the loud, partying
men in my living room, and I stepped up to the first man and said, you do not
belong here anymore. I reached up above his head and proceeded to tear him like
you would a piece of paper, and when he was rent to the bottom, I flung him out
of the ceiling. Then I went to the next man and did the same thing. I repeated
this till all of them were removed. Then I looked at the furniture in the room,
and I went up to each piece of furniture and did the same thing, till all of
the old furniture was gone. Then I looked around me and was satisfied. I remembered
that the baby furniture was in the area off of the kitchen. I went and I looked
at the furniture and wondered if I should do the same thing to this furniture
too. I went up to the crib and inside was a smiling baby. He laughed and then
said, "Now it is time to rebuild." Then I instantly knew in my dream
that God wanted all of our past to be done with, and that it was time to remove
all that hinders the birthing of the new inside of us, and also around us. I
was still asleep and the Lord began to go over every detail of the dream with
me, and what each thing meant:
The House: Our
spirit man, soul, and body. Who we are in this world.
The furniture:
The things we have erected within ourselves to feel safe and secure, so we can
cope and get through this life.
The men: The
men in my dream were things, or situations, that we had formerly submitted to and
became bound to in the past, which we were not meant to. Strongmen or
strongholds. We still struggle with it's
effects in our mind, our wills, our emotions, and in our memories, and even in
our bodies till this day.
Matthew 12:28 But if
it is by the Spirit of God that I drive out the demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you [before you
expected it]. 29 Or how can a person go into a strong man's house and carry off
his goods (the entire equipment of his house) without first binding the strong
man? Then indeed he may plunder his house.
Mark 3:26 And if Satan
has raised an insurrection against himself and is divided, he cannot stand but
is [surely] coming to an end. 27 But no one can go into a strong man's house
and ransack his household goods right and left and seize them as plunder unless
he first binds the strong man; then indeed he may [thoroughly] plunder his house.
The coins: The
transactions we made in our lives, that gave the men (strongman/strongholds)
the right to control us and to remain in us and to affect all of our decisions
and dictate our response mechanisms through our entire lives- through our
personalities.
The transactions:
Any inner vows we made, bad unions or covenants, any soul pacts or ties, yielding
to control, abuse, etc.
Empty House:
The Lord bringing us to a place of emptiness/cleanness in our spirit, our soul,
and bodies, so that we can heal.
The kitchen: A
place of learning and feeding, spiritual teaching, inspiration, revelation,
mentoring, discipling, etc.
Matthew 4:4 And He
humbled you and allowed you to hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not
know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you recognize and personally
know that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that
proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord.
The empty crib and
furniture: The desire for freedom, for a new life, for a hope, for a future,
the new things God has for you.
The baby: The
new me - slowly emerging from my spirit, and upwards into my newly renovated
soul, so that my mind, will, emotions, and personality can be refurnished - or
realigned to the true realities around me - to now be able to fit and match the
true walk God has for us, that my body will now begin to carry out in the
earth.
Isaiah 45:8 Let fall
in showers, you heavens, from above, and let the skies rain down righteousness [the
pure, spiritual, heaven-born possibilities that have their foundation in the
holy being of God]; let the earth open, and let them [skies and earth]
sprout forth salvation, and let righteousness germinate and spring up [as
plants do] together; I the Lord have created it.
The message from
the baby:
1. The Lord speaking
to me regarding the release of new life to our current state of brokenness, to
bring us to birth.
2. A releasing of
fresh spiritual breath bringing strength into our souls.
3. A release of fresh
prophetic vision to ignite inspiration within our spirit and souls to get up
and to choose to live again.
4. A new understanding
opening up within us of God's timing and purposes for us, so that we can be quickly
be refurnished within and rebuilt without, by the Lord - for the new Season we
am now about to step into.
Then I woke up
from the dream, and the Lord then said:
"This is the
condition of My Church, of many of My People. She must be shaken fully awake,
and she must be thoroughly renovated so that she can be cleansed, healed, rebuilt,
and refitted with the new higher spiritual things I have for her to become and
to also do. Nothing from the past can enter the new season ahead of you. She
must decide how deep she will go with Me, and if she is willing to let go of
the past entirely, and she must decide to tear up it's old dominance of her and
cast out the fear entrenched within her, and she must throw it fully out of her
life. Then, and only then, can I bring her to a full mature birth. Then, and
only then, can I use her as a vessel of
full mature eternal worth on the earth!"
Proverbs 9:13 The
foolish woman is noisy; she is simple and open to all forms of evil, she
[willfully and recklessly] knows nothing whatever [of eternal value].
Acts 13:46 But Paul
and Barnabas spoke very boldly, saying, "We must speak the message of God
to you first. But you refuse to listen. You are judging yourselves not worthy
of having eternal life! So we will now go to the people of other nations. NCV
Matthew 6:25 "So
I tell you, don't worry about the food or drink you need to live, or about the
clothes you need for your body. Life is more than food, and the body is more
than clothes. 26 Look at the birds in the air. They don't plant or harvest or
store food in barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. And you know that you
are worth much more than the birds. 27 You cannot add any time to your life by
worrying about it. NCV
Isaiah 57:14 And the
word of One shall go forth, Cast up, cast up, prepare the way! Take up the
stumbling block out of the way [of the spiritual return] of My people. 15 For
thus says the high and lofty One--He Who inhabits eternity, Whose name is Holy:
I dwell in the high and holy place, but with him also who is of a thoroughly
penitent and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble and to revive
the heart of the thoroughly penitent [bruised with sorrow for sin].16 For I
will not contend forever, neither will I be angry always, for [if I did stay
angry] the spirit [of man] would faint and be consumed before Me, and [My purpose
in] creating the souls of men would be frustrated.
Luke 8:14 And as for
what fell among the thorns, these are [the people] who hear, but as they go on
their way they are choked and suffocated with the anxieties and cares and
riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not ripen (come to maturity
and perfection).
1 John 4:18 There is
no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love
turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with
it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the
full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love's complete perfection].
Matthew 5:48 You,
therefore, must be perfect [growing into complete maturity of godliness in mind
and character, having reached the proper height of virtue and integrity], as
your heavenly Father is perfect.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 He
has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in
men's hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through
the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that
men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
1 John 2:5 But he who
keeps (treasures) His Word [who bears in mind His precepts, who observes His
message in its entirety], truly in him has the love of and for God been
perfected (completed, reached maturity). By this we may perceive (know,
recognize, and be sure) that we are in Him:
Ephesians 1:10 [He
planned] for the maturity of the times and the climax of the ages to unify all
things and head them up and consummate them in Christ, [both] things in heaven
and things on the earth.
Ephesians 4:16 For
because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts), closely
joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is
supplied, when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly
[in all its functions], grows to full maturity, building itself up in love.
