A Dream:
Our cottage and another teenage girls’ cottage were doing a 5k race together, around some kind of castle, perhaps with a few other participants but no boys. One girl started to get extremely sick, so somebody took her inside, some doctors and nurses set up a hospital bed for her, and everybody was worried. Although nobody knew exactly what was going on, most people slowed down out of respect.
Somehow I knew that although she had become genuinely sick, it was not anything as bad as encephalitis, which is what a doctor had said she had. They were trying to protect her by keeping her in bed, but the truth is that she could do more out of the bed. It was a fear-based thought, and it was keeping everybody from finishing the race, so I ran around looking for people who were sick and praying for their healing. I even passed by a dead person and called out as I ran by that they should stand up and walk, so they did. I found the room the girl was in, prayed with her, and she was healed.
I told her to stand up, and we all went over to a table to celebrate and eat. Then another girl said she was going to do an impression of somebody, and she spoke in a demonic voice, saying, “Is satan’s voice good enough?” I immediately stood up, told satan and all demonic forces to get out of our environment and go directly to the pit of hell, and so they did.
An Interpretation:
Everybody is running a race. Everybody needs to be unified with those who build them up and not with any who tear them down, hence no boys (most immature males tear down most immature females). Every girl is a princess in the Kingdom of Heaven, and every boy a prince, hence the castle. We all have setbacks, but it is never as bad as our enemies would have us believe. It is only as bad in our life as it is in our mind, because we overcome whatever we believe we overcome. Completing our assignment is more important than getting in a defensive mode to preserve our life as it is. When you get over fear, you become more than a conqueror, i.e. a conqueror who goes around helping other people conquer. We should celebrate victory but not be naïve enough to think that the only adversity is physical. Our real enemies are spiritual, but we have just as much authority over them as we do over the emotional, physical, and mental challenges.
We will see the kingdom of darkness fall. In Jesus’ name, let it be so.
