I dreamt that my
husband and I were sitting on our bed in our bedroom with our daughter,
Anna, when a strong wind came through our bedroom. It seemed that the wind
came in through the door of our room then swept into the closet. The wind
was so strong that it caught Anna away into the closet which has a blanket
covering the doorway because it has no door. The wind is a spirit because they are
the same word in Greek. It swept Anna, meaning grace or favor, into the
closet, representing works. A closet is to store clothing that we have worn
and represents the works that we have done.
{Rom.13:12} The night is far spent, and the
day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness,
and let us put on the armor of light. {13} Let us walk becomingly, as
in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in chambering and
wantonness, not in strife and jealousy. {14} But put ye on the Lord
Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to [fulfil] the
lusts [thereof]. Our works and nature and the curse
associated with them are passed on unto our physical and spiritual children
through our blood and actions.
{Ex.34:7} keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and
transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear [the guilty],
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the
children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
It is the grace of
God that there is chastening against our sin nature so that we count the
cost and lean on the grace of the Lord through His promises. {Heb.12:7} It is for chastening that ye endure;
God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom [his]
father chasteneth not? {12:8} But if ye are without chastening, whereof
all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
{1
Pet.2:19} For this is acceptable
(Greek: "grace"), if for conscience toward God a man endureth
griefs, suffering wrongfully. {20} For what glory is it, if, when ye
sin, and are buffeted [for it], ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye
do well, and suffer [for it], ye shall take it patiently, this is
acceptable (grace) with God.
{2
Thes.1:4} so that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for
your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions
which ye endure; {5} [which is] a manifest token of the righteous
judgment of God; to the end that ye may be counted worthy of the
kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer.
Once the wind
had ceased, my husband and I went to the closet and pulled back the blanket
to discover that Anna was not in there. It took just a second to see that
she was not in there, but we noticed as our eyes continued to look for her
that the back wall of the closet appeared to be loose. What looked like ply
board had been fitted to the dimensions of the back wall. My husband pulled
it back and found that there was a very large hole behind the ply board. He
said to me, "Where is the harness?" I was a bit puzzled. I could not
remember having a harness, so I did not remember where I had put it. He
began to look through the house for the harness. I ventured into the closet
to look into the hole. I peered in and saw that it led down and out. It was
like a cavern and was deep. I saw that Anna was laying unconscious on some
rocks that were piled up along the wall just below the hole.
Beneath our house and that of
our children the curse of our old nature is hidden and waiting for the
demons to administer. The blood of Abel, the spiritual man, cries to God
from the earth for justice against Cain, the old man. Jesus bore that curse
and as soon as we decide to give up and trust in His finished work we begin
to partake of His blessings. It is here that the spiritual man, Seth, is
born to replace the original spiritual man who was killed.
{Gen.4:25} And Adam knew his wife again;
and she bare a son, and called his name Seth. For, [said she], God hath
appointed me another seed instead of Abel; for Cain slew him.
Just then my
husband came up behind me and said, "Take care not to fall in." Then, just
as I was about to ask him if there was anywhere I could help look for the
harness, a demon came through the hole. We ultimately fail in trying to
restrain the old man in our children because only faith in the blood will
drive their demons away.
The closet seemed to look
bigger as he approached me. His face was familiar to me, one that I
remembered, but hadn't seen in a very long time.
We know the struggles of our
children against their demons for we wrestled with the same in our youth.
He walked to me boldly
with intention. I put my hand out to him and said, "I command you to leave
in Jesus’ name." His face twisted and he proceeded with more effort, but
moved slower. I said it again, but by then he was right in front of me. I
grabbed him and picked him up and began to say as I swung him into a wall
that he passed right through, "Leave, in Jesus' name." Then he disappeared
through the wall.
These think to take authority over us again through our children but we are
different now for we know our rights in Christ.
Just then, right
below where that demon passed through the wall, another hole appeared in the
wall. I got down low to look in the hole. I saw that there was another room
with a dirt floor and a black cauldron hanging right in front of a large
hearth. Rebellion
is as the sin of witchcraft.
(Pr.22:15) Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; [But] the
rod of
correction shall drive it far from him.
A very small demon, looking almost
like a little child, came through and another demon came through the larger
hole. They tried to corner me. I was not afraid, but I felt that they were
trying to keep me from getting Anna out of the pit that she was in, so I
turned and jumped into the hole. We take the battle to them by
faith.
I now found myself on the
ground. Anna was still laying on the rocks, unconscious above me. I looked
around and could see people seeming to be in their own worlds. I
could see them, but they could only see what they were seeing.
Most are in bondage because they are out of
touch with the reality of Christ that they have been set free.
Some seemed to be suffering at the hands of others who were hating and/or
beating them. I could not see what they could see, but I could hear what
they were saying and see how they were reacting.
They wrestle with flesh and blood, not seeing the real enemy is the demons
taking advantage of their old nature. I could see one that kept
becoming a baby and was being cut up; then he would grow again and become a
baby again and be cut up. I could see that something was really happening to
him; he was certainly being handled. Many
spiritual abortions are happening to keep them from coming to the new birth
in Christ.
I saw one being flown around
by her tongue by a snake that had wings.
(James 3:6) And the tongue
is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is the tongue,
which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of
nature, and is set on fire by hell. (Isa.14:29) Rejoice not, O
Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken; for out
of the serpent's root shall come forth an adder, and his fruit shall be a
fiery
