April Dream Stream
While meditating on my bed this morning about these imminent changes I fell into that twilight zone space somewhere between awake & asleep and had a brief vision of a pay telephone with change coming out. A multitude of shiny coins filled my hand and I awoke. This showed me that the more we connect with God through communication, by communing and conversing with Him we can experience the kind of change that brings a greater return of blessing into our lives! The coins represent the price He paid to not only make us rich spiritually but also economically! Prayer pays off when we adapt to the changes Heaven sends to modify and transform our lives and advance His Kingdom in this earth. 2 Corinthians 8:9 states: “You know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might be RICH.” Along with all our sins Jesus took the curse of poverty with him on the cross. This is not only the answer to a lack of finances but everything we need to live an abundant and fulfilled life. After those winds of change have blown us where we need to be I hear the promise of an abundant sound of APRIL SHOWERS:
“I will cause my people and their homes around my holy hill to be a blessing. And I will send showers, showers of blessings, which will come just when they are needed. . . Then Elijah said to Ahab, "Go up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain." (from Ezekiel 34:26 & 1 Kings 18:41)
Another short dream came to me later this same day while taking a nap. I was working as a "change agent" and had been given anassignment to purchase as many yellow extension cords as possible. Upon awaking the immediate interpretation came to me that God wants us to plug in and extend our power and influence as far as possible. It requires flexibility like the cord. Yellow is a color that symbolizes the wisdom we must pay the price to obtain this kind of outreach, connection and energy.
Numerous unsolicited confirmations of this message came to my inbox and radio to establish the currency of this word in my heart. Here are a couple of them:
Doug Addison (4.1.14 word of the day):
"A turning point is here this month. Stay the course and watch things CHANGE before your eyes."
The classic song by The Who sure fit on this April Fool’s day:
“ . . I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the CHANGE all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
CHANGE it had to come
We knew it all along . . .”
My heart bursts its banks, spilling beauty and goodness. I pour it out in a poem to the king, shaping the river into words (Psalm 45:1 TM).
A river of Life flowing from the Throne of Heaven is bursting its banks in the corporate heart of the Body of the Anointed One. The intimate ecstasies of individuals, enthralled with their King, are converging into one body of living water. This curse-free creation is wildly celebrating with holy abandon. The greatest, happiest party of all time is breaking forth! A rush of bliss-saturated poetry, brimming with (zoe-filled) divine life, is coursing through a people who are beside themselves with adoration. These mighty rivers of living water can no longer be contained in the confines of the human heart. The out-flowing “zoetry” is a spontaneous art form that originates from the indwelling Creator. These floodwaters are coming soon to a neighborhood near you.
No one in their right mind would argue that the world doesn’t need to be changed. This cannot be achieved politically or by the hand of man. Nonetheless the world must be changed for the better—and not just a makeover. It needs a complete Kingdom takeover! It is begging for a lasting change from the roots up.
The good news is that this world will be changed beyond recognition as the dams burst and this raging river starts rolling. This ecstatic move will not just come and go as another visitation of revival. It is no less than the permanent habitation of God’s presence permeating planet earth. Psalm 45 is a dynamic illustration of how this mega-reformation will transpire. This transformation is conceived in a simple love song as our Beloved woos us into the chambers of His innermost Being…”
