Dream 765 – Packing Up for our Next Assignment
Received on Monday, January 1, 2024
Communion
Dear Father,
Thank You for another day here! 2024 has arrived and another year, 2023, is now behind me. When I consider all that You have done to sustain us, I am eternally grateful. Bless You, Father on Earth as in Heaven, the Creator of the Universe and our eternities. Let this year, 2024, be the Great Harvest of souls.
Let the lost be found by You. Revive us. Breathe into us from on high. Let not one of Your sheep, Your children, be lost. We love You! As many know, I often focus on Psalm 23. The following is an outline of Psalm 23, Notice how perfectly it seems to summarize what we have all experienced during the year 2023…
Psalm 23: 1The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. 2He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. 3He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. 4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
My husband then pointed out something that flowed into Psalm 24. Psalm 24 is about You, Father, our King of Glory, and how You will guide us into our long-awaited season of change. With further reflection, You illuminated some items in Psalm 24. It’s another outline of what will be needed to be a part of Your greater glory when You call us into Your presence.
- Clean hands and a pure heart.
- A soul that is not lifted up to that which is false.
- A mouth that does not swear deceitfully.
These shall then ascend the Hill of the Lord! These shall stand in His Holy Place! Those who continuously seek the face of the Lord will be blessed. They will receive blessings from You, along with righteousness from the God of our salvation. Here is Psalm 24 in its entirety…
Psalm 24: 1The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein, 2for He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers. 3Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in His Holy Place? 4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false and does not swear deceitfully. 5He will receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. 7Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may come in. 8Who is this King of Glory? The Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord, mighty in battle! 9Lift up your heads, O gates! And lift them up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may come in. 10Who is this King of Glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of Glory!
Psalm 24 is such an awesome Psalm and so full of hope! The Lord will open the gates to those who earnestly seek Him. As for last night’s dream, I had another one of packing things up…
Sub-dream 1a “Packing up to go – Part 1″ begins…
I was packing up some boxes. My last box had some of my most favorite personal items. However, they no longer had a place for the journey I was about to embark on. I had a deadline of 4:00pm to drop the balance of my items off at a local charitable thrift store. While I had hoped my younger son could do this for me, it was his last shift at his work and they had planned a small party for him.
In the meantime, I was wrapping up things at home. This included painting everything white. This included white walls, white floors and white ceilings. It looked opposite to anything I would actually do here on Earth. I then took time out of my schedule to deliver the last pieces to the charity. I also knew that there were some people coming to look at our home at 5:00pm.
I checked every closet and space one more time. When I looked into one of the last closets, there was my stepdaughter’s very colorful prom dress hanging there. I had no place to put it in nor a box to store it in. I decided that I would wait to figure out what to do with it until I got home from dropping my items off at the charity. I felt that I had enough time to get back home before the guests arrived.
Sub-dream 1a over…
As I was writing this dream, a ‘breeze’ came and flipped my Bible pages to parts of Psalm 31, along with all of Psalm 32. Since the window was fully closed, this was a clear sign that I was to address this before writing down the rest of my dream. I knew, via the Holy Spirit, that this was related to now…
- Psalm 31:23-24 contains more instructions from the Lord.
- Psalm 32 contains instructions on those who further seek the Lord’s face. This seems urgent in my heart.
Psalm 31:23-24: 23Love the Lord, all you, His saints! The Lord preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride. 24Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!
Psalm 32: 1Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 2Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. 3For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long. 4For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. 5I acknowledged my sin to You, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” and You forgave the iniquity of my sin. 6Therefore let everyone who is godly offer prayer to You at a time when You may be found; surely in the rush of great waters, they shall not reach Him.
7You are a hiding place for me; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with shouts of deliverance. 8I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you. 9Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you. 10Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord. 11Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
After outlining the above, I then went back to my dream of packing up to go…
Sub-dream 1b “Packing up to go – Part 2″ begins…
It was now 3:45pm and I had to be at the charity before the collection deadline of 4:00pm. When I arrived just five minutes before the deadline, they were already beginning to close the collection area. I had one box that I needed to hand to the manager whom I knew so these would be priced by an appraiser.
They took the larger items and told me to go near the checkout where the manager was helping a new cashier. When I went inside, I was in complete shock over the volume of high-end pieces on display. I flipped a vase over and it had a mark from the 1800s Netherlands. It was priced at only $20. A female picker came up to me…
Woman: “Beautiful vase, right?”
Me: “Yes. It is worth about $3,500 or perhaps even more. Do you want it?”
Woman: “Oh no. This is not my style. Thank you though.”
Me: “Do you know where all of these high-end items came from?”
Woman: “Yes. These items came from the wealthiest man on the East Coast. He donated it all to several charities. I guess he must have found Jesus.”
Me: Chuckling. “Wow, that’s awesome! That is a man after God’s Heart.”
Woman: “Well, we think he is just plain stupid. How foolish. You work your whole life to acquire all of this and then you just give it away?”
Me: “Well, none of this will really matter at the end. Perhaps he was offered something much greater for all of it.”
Woman: Now angry at me. “Oh, so, you are one of them!”
She began to shout and scream at me. As she did, I made a closing gesture with my hand. Her mouth was then instantly sealed. I didn’t even have to touch her at all. She now had a terrified look on her face. I looked at the vase again and laughed at our God’s amazing humor. I then noticed that the painting on the vase was ‘the woman at the well’. I did not set the vase down.
This angry woman then began to topple things. Her arms and legs then suddenly froze. Since she looked even more terrified, I now felt bad for her. As I stood there, I felt the Lord well up in me. The vase I was holding was now filled with Living Water. I walked back over to the woman and held the vase out to her…
Me: “God is now going to release your mouth. You are to drink this Living Water and your arms and legs will return to their use. However, do not mock God or His people again. Now, if you drink this, you will be healed.”
She reached over to take the vase and drank all of it. God instantly restored her. She dropped to her knees and began to weep.
Me: “How do you feel?”
Woman: “I am sorry, so sorry.”
Me: “Don’t apologize to me, only to the Lord. Now, I suggest you keep this vase as a reminder. Fill it and drink from it whenever you feel thirsty.”
Woman: “Thank you! This vase is suddenly both in my taste and in my style. It is a beautiful vase.” We both laughed. “So, what is your name?”
Me: “This is not important. Now, back to this wealthy man’s story. This sure took a great turn, right?”
Woman: “What am I to do now?”
Me: “Find the man and show him the vase. He will give you his testimony and you will then be friends. He does not have many friends except for God and us.”
Woman: “Yes, I will do that. Thank you.”
Me: “It was nice to meet you. I will see you again under different circumstances.”
I turned around. I was still waiting for the manager. It was now around 4:20pm. I stood by a counter. On the counter were three porcelain English figurines of animals. Two of the three were otters; one wore a suit and one had none. Both were standing on their hind legs. I didn’t pay attention to the third animal; a pig.
I picked both of the otters up to look at their marks. These were more items from the wealthy man’s estate. The price of the otter with the little suit was $40. The price of the otter without a suit was $60. All of a sudden, people were interested in what I was holding.
Man: “Hey, wait… that is the one I had wanted.”
I became angry at him. I looked over at the manager and she looked back at me. She must have now known that I was waiting for her as she gestured with one finger up that I only had to wait for her another minute or so. I addressed the man…
Me: “Hmm, I didn’t see your name on them, sir.”
Man: “Well, I was coming back to them.”
He then tried to grab the two porcelain otters out of my hand. As he did, his hand and arm instantly withered. He then started to call me the ‘b-word’. Before he could scream this word out fully, I saw the hand of an angel literally grab hold of his tongue. He could no longer speak a word. I then heard God…
Voice of the Lord: “Not this one.”
Me: Inside my head. “Yes, Lord.”
The Lord then had the angel release his physical hold on the man’s tongue.
Man: “Are you going to also give me back the use of my arm and hand?”
Me: “No.”
The man began to follow me. He kept pleading with me for his arm and hand. I was still holding the two porcelain otters when the manager waved me over. The Lord then had the angel usher the man out of the store.
Manager: “Hi, Erin, how can I help you?”
Me: “That crazy man who just left had wanted to take these two porcelain otters away from me.”
Manager: Laughing. “They are yours. Take them at no charge. They are quite rare.”
Me: “I am giving things away, not buying things. I have this small box here. I want to make sure before you price these that they go before your appraiser. There is jewelry and other items.”
Manager: “That is so generous. As for these two figurines, please take them and give them to someone who is in need. Perhaps to a child who needs a smile. The person who donated these figurines would much rather you have them than the likes of these.” She pointed to the rude man who was now standing outside looking in through a window. “The foundation would demand this too. Please take these so that you remember me.”
Me: “Well, okay, but I will see you again.”
Manager: “No. I am sick and this cannot be cured this time.”
Voice of the Lord: “She is Mine. Touch her arm now.”
I reached over and touched her arm. She was instantly healed. She could feel it.
Me: “I will see you soon. You are well because God is good and you are His. Confess your sins, give them to God and He will turn and forgive you. You will then be saved from what comes.”
Manager: Now crying. “Thank you!”
Me: “It is the Lord who you must thank.”
I turned and gave her $120 for the two porcelain otters. I waved and left. It was now 4:45pm and I was late. When I arrived home, some people were already in the house. I still had not boxed up the colorful prom dress in the closet. It was now the only thing with color in the house. I woke up when there was a knock on the door in my dream.
Sub-dream 2 over…
Jesus: “Erin, come up!”
He once again spoke to me while I sat in my devotional chair. His Voice was very clear.
Jesus: “Erin, I am here and I am with you. Now, you had a difficult night…”
Me: “Yes, Lord. I kept worrying that I was out of favor with You. I have been feeling down and very sad. There are days that I wonder about who I am and why. Can I just be a fantasy writer instead?”
Jesus: “Stop talking like this right now. I am God over all things. Erin, cling to My promises for you. I have never stopped. If you were crazy, surely these letters from Me would sound crazy by now. If you were a child of the enemy, great hate for Me would have surfaced after just a few letters. Instead, every one of your dreams points to My love. While it is okay to doubt your human abilities, do not doubt that God can use anyone for His purposes under Heaven.
“Now, I can guarantee you this… that if the scribes of old had journal books, lined pages and pens with ink, there would be thousands of writings from Me. However, this is about you and this is the way I have chosen for you. While I have called others before you, this did not work out as they felt that what I was doing with them did not fit into what others believed to be My character. They proclaim that God would never do this as if they somehow knew the very heart of God. Well, they do not.
“Many also stopped because people told them they were unable. As for you, you have continued with Me because we are friends and I speak through you by this way. This is so you do not forget what I tell you. This is so you have records of this. This is how I chose to have a relationship with you. However, I have also increased this by My Voice in you. Just because others say this is not of God does not mean that they hear from Me to know this.”
Me: “I know, Lord. It is just… well, it is just… oh, somedays, I just feel…”
Jesus: “In the beginning, you cried out to Me to hear from Me. When you didn’t hear My Voice, you fasted and prayed. During your urgent request to Me, you fasted with no food or water. When you were going on your fourth day of your fast, I called on you and an angel woke you up. When you cried and prayed for help, you had an open vision.
“In this vision, the Two Witnesses I had sent then told you that you must first die to yourself before you were called to greater service. This was several months after you made a vow surrendering your life to Me. I had a great plan in place for you and I still do. For twelve years, I then allowed you to go through great afflictions before I called you up for greater service. Now, what did the vision show you?”
Me: “The vision showed me that I was 100% of this world and that I was selfish. The vision showed me that I needed to die to myself prior to my greater service. Oh Lord, all of this has been so painful.”
Jesus: “Yes, I know as I was with you. You lost many friends. You experienced the worst in Christians and in people around you. You experienced great shame and humiliation enroute to Me. However, you made it. Now we are great friends. Do not forget this. I share secrets with you and things you have seen in My Heavenly Courts. You write what I scribe to you. You keep records.
“Erin, I love you. Do not forget this. I will continue to bless you in all you do. I am with you. While there are others who are jealous of you, they know Me in different ways. However, and very soon, all of those I call will be in unison and in perfect step.”
Me: “Thank You, Lord. I just get scared sometimes of ever doing the wrong thing or hurting You. I would never want that.”
Jesus: “Come to Me when you are thinking this way and I will give you rest. The enemy wants you to stop. However, I can assure you that I will cause you to write a playbook for those who want to know Me personally. I am with you. I will never leave you. I gently rebuke you when you go the wrong direction.
“I talk to you about staying your course. Do not let those who do not care to know the God who loves them determine your gifts from Me. I have not made them the Great Voice of God who determines a thing. Pray for them to know Me more so they can hear from Me too. Now enjoy this day as it is the day I have made. I love you, Erin!”
