I rarely have delightful waking dreams but I had one this morning. I saw sunny iridescent misty Kindness falling like waves of dew to the earth. People were happy and kind. I also saw an ashen black demon, a political demon called Arrogance, fall from his little cloud perched in the sky. He fell to the earth and the earth swallowed him up.
Then I remembered my little childhood pony, Firefly. I paid for that pony over several years by painting our acre of fence at minimum wage for my parents. It was very hard work and I had allergies so I was sweating in the Maryland humidity and with a surgical mask on so I wouldn’t keep sneezing with allergies. Although my parents would have given me the gift of the pony and just let me contribute to his care with my weekly allowance from chores, they weren’t rich but they did fine working for the government, I wanted to earn that pony. Well, that pony could jump! What a joy when that pony was all mine, finally fully purchased with my hard-earned money, and we jumped and jumped and jumped. It was the “best pony in the world” and brought me endless joy as a child.
I believe remembering the pony this morning is like Christ’s crown of thorns. By the sweat of our brow is the curse over our labor to work the land. But the thorns were pushed into Christ’s brow and His blood came out, removing the curse.
Our ponies, our stocks, are going to jump and jump and jump and, thus, give us childlike delight!!
P.S. Please read last post of "Clear and emphatic word from the Lord". I am so encouraged! We were all born for such a time as this, how humbling it is to be called His and to such a great purpose.
Update as of September 12, 2010 8:00pm: I went for a prayer walk and here was a song I was inspired by and sang back to the Lord who inspired it:
Kindness falling like dew
How much we need of you
Kindness falling from heaven
2011
Kindness, usher us in
Liberating us from sin
Kindness, where is the leaven?
2011
Kindness, what’s this they say?
A gentle man has his way
Kindness, rolling in waves
Set free the slaves
"Sierra" - About Me
- Prophetic Trader
- I am a prophet in arenas which I call "the fields I plow", primarily that of the U.S. economy, politics and stock market, but also whatever else He shares with me. He graciously has expanded the scope of sharing with me over the years. I am transparent in this blog. You will witness a prophetic person fairly new to prophesying publicly exhibit some immaturity, which I have not deleted, but hopefully you will see growth and increased maturity over time. I often spend hours a day with the Lord to cultivate the gifts for the fields He has called me to. It is the craving of every fiber in my being to be close to Jesus Christ and the Father and I hunger to sit at His feet like Mary. I believe this is the birth place of a prophet and He has and is birthing many prophets across the world to speak over and pray for many issues. Sometimes it is the most excruciating thing you will do as your flesh is crucified in this calling. But it is also the most glorious thing to be drawn closer and closer to Him. It is worth the cost, but please know it is a painful and frustrating cost at times, should you desire it. I hope you desire it!
I value your friendship and prayers.
