This is my first really
Christian dream since my baptism in May 2005. In the dream, I
saw myself gathering with about a dozen other people in some
obscure place that I couldn't identify. Everything was
shadowy, fuzzy and indistinct. The features on the faces
were hidden in gray shadow. It was as if we were in a hidden
place. We stood around a circular table, joined hands, and
bowed our heads to pray. I remember thinking, "We are joining
together our spirits as we pray -- no, we are already
joined by only ONE Spirit." It seemed we were about to eat a
meal together.
I remember next looking for
some salt to season my food. I found some nearby in a rather
small indigo blue sack. The salt itself was pink in color
and was slowly spilling out through a hole in the bottom of
the sack. I was anxious to recover all the salt that
had spilled out and began to scoop it up with my hands as
thoroughly as I could. At that point in the dream, I woke up and
immediately wrote down all I could remember. (I noticed that I
did not fix the hole in the sack but tried to refill it.)
The only parts of the dream
that had color were the indigo blue sack and the pink
salt that was in it. In waking life, I do actually use such a
pink-colored salt on my food, which I get from a health food
store. The trade name is "REAL SALT."
Note from David:
This speaks of the time to come when the church will enter a
time of darkness upon the earth. The time for being and
partaking of God's heavenly salt will be quickly running out
like a hole in a small sack, like the sand in an hourglass. We
become the salt of purification and preservation to the world as
we partake of Jesus.
{Col.4:5} Walk in wisdom toward them that are without,
redeeming the time. {4:6} Let your speech be always with
grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought
to answer each one. We must pick up the pace
and redeem the time.
Though we
might like to delay the days of reckoning, like putting the salt
back into a bag with a hole, they will ultimately come. We are
coming to the end of the day, symbolized by the indigo blue
color of the late evening sky. This is last days when the light
of the Son shines through the blue heaven to earth. For many
the light is going out.
Salt and Light are synonymous parables and we know that Jesus is
the light. {Mt.5:13}
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost
its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth
good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of
men. Notice that the salt of the earth is
contained within God's indigo blue sky.
{14} Ye are the light of the
world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. {15} Neither do
[men] light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the
stand; and it shineth unto all that are in the house. {16} Even
so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good
works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Salt without savor is like a Christian who has lost the
light and life of God and is under the curses of this world.
