Bill's Dream 10-21-00 (Short pre-amble: Walter, the "leader" in this dream has been a spiritual father to us over the past 9 years, even though he and his wife Bev live in New Zealand, and we in the U.S., so that our times together have been limited. We love them dearly. Therefore, Walter may represent himself, as well as leaders/fathers today, in Bill's prophetic dream.)

In the dream, I believe I was in N. Z., but only because of Walter. I'm not really sure of the location of the setting of this dream.

There was a large one story facility (building), not a house, but rather similar to a school or office, with class/office type rooms inside. The outside grounds were simply spectacular with a huge lawn, beautiful tall trees, and all this overlooking a lake. Beautiful Sunny day.

Walter seemed to be the caretaker at this place, and of these wonderful grounds. He was mowing the lawn. There were a group of about 25-30 of us here also, folks of different colors, & ages. A few of these folks I recognized as friends of mine from my own youth. A couple of friends -- Mike D., and Bill Mc. who both died as young adults, in the reality of my past. Thus, they were young still in the dream of course, whereas I myself have just turned 60 yr.'s old this month.

Inside this facility building Walter has a black box/contraption (?) that is called a blessing box, about the size of a handheld vacuum cleaner. We all take a turn breathing into Walters blessing box. There is a huge Holy Spirit inhaling in this, and we are blessed and full of the joy of Our Lord from this activity !

We then go outside onto the wonderful grounds and congregate together at a central point on the lawn. Walter, who is directing us, then has us all turn around to face outwards. (we are not in a circle exactly, but rather just grouped very closely together). Walter then instructs us all to lean backwards, against each other. This involves some small trust to do - trust that you will not fall over backwards. And sure enough, this is so, as we all lean backwards and rest upon each other as we are clumped together..... heads thrown back, we look up. The beautiful trees and sky ... and Walter tells us then to begin turning together, en masse - we do this. Most of us, have arms extended up, as we are praising God together and turning. The joy of the Lord and presence of Holy Spirit in and upon us is very thick and wonderful -- and I feel and experience this in the dream. It is wonderful.

Walter tells me that this great experience and blessing we're all having together praising The Lord, would not have been possible, unless we had first partaken of the blessing box, inside the building.

Of our group of 25-30 people, about three of the young people present (teenagers or early 20's) then want to return to the inside of the building to breath more of the blessing box. I'm not sure if they should be doing this? But Walter gently assures me, " It's O.K. ..... let them go,....we just will keep an eye on them."

A neighbor on the adjoining property, now has a problem - their truck is stuck on a steep hill. We all proceed over to help the neighbor get the truck out of this rut. Upon arriving there, we see that a few of the young adults of our group have beat us to the rescue (!), and are pushing the truck up the hill very rapidly. At the front of this truck is a horse harnessed pulling, and the 3 young folks are in back pushing. They seem to be going at a "speed" ..seems at least 20 miles an hour. Quite miraculous to observe!

Lastly then, I am back inside the original building and looking out a window where I see Walter again mowing the grass. I notice there are patches of lawn he's either missed, or just still has to complete mowing..... end of this dream.

Just before awakening (may relate to this above dream and may not, I'm not sure?) in a dream I was with some people. One said, "What shall we eat?" Someone else said, "Don't eat the Haggis (spelling?), eat the 'finnen haddy'....." I awoke still full of Holy Spirit joy and anointing, and laughing as well, about this last hearing .....

(Haggis, as in the Scot sheep stomach meal, and I believe 'finnen haddy' is some kind of Fish dish, as in Haddock stew w/.fins and all ? I'm not sure of this last .... but that is what it meant to me as I heard it spoken.

Bill -------------

some interpretation given: As well as being a huge bless to Bill, this prophetic dream may speak to some of Walters ministry, and in this may also speak to God's plans concerning "leaders" & "Teams", as well as to the up & coming new Evangelists.....

The building and grounds are representing Walters spiritual leadership ministry, as in teaching (facility/building like a school),

"....the law was our tutor (schoolmaster) to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor (schoolmaster)." Gal. 3:24,25 - NKJ

.....and then on to Walter's leading/bringing folks together into great blessing through unity (the outdoor grounds), ..... shown here as smaller groups of 25-30, perhaps representing apostolic/prophetic, or five-fold "Teams"... which then leads on to God's work for this time, in success.

Part of Walter's caretaking ministry is in the cutting the flesh off folks ('all flesh is as grass'), that folks might then move in the Spirit, and in trust and unity together. As Bill's dream closes he observes (seeing prophetically through window) that Walter has more yet to do in this ministry out to folks (still some grass patches to mow ) -- in other words, Walter is not done yet !

Also, I feel that the blessing box represents an expression of the 'renewal' that we and many others have partaken of in recent past years. Walters 'blessing box', represents a one-on-one individual working in folks, of The Lord. A time of 'cutting off of the flesh' (grass) and of good healing and filling, thus equipping, with joy and Love given from Our Lord, to each one, through an individual personal work.

BUT now God's thrust, as depicted in this dream, may be shifting to that of relationship with one another [folks leaning upon one another] which will bring even greater joy in Holy Ghost and book of Acts type accomplishments, in team ministry, and which is shown in Bill's dream as coming about very quickly (miraculous uphill pushing speed of 20 m.p.h.)

"...that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the Glory that You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one. I in them, and You in Me, that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me." - Jn. 17:21-23

There are several portions in this dream, referenced to 'young people'. Whether in chronological years (teens - 20's), or just ones who are spiritually young adults of whatever physical age at this time, I'm not sure ? -- could be both.

They are first depicted in Bill's old buddies from his own youth, in this group of folks.

They are next depicted, even though now spiritual young adults (i.e. not 'babes'), wanting & needing to leave the group and 'go back' to the joy box - or the one-on-one individual dealings with God (which they need more of, as Walter knows and recognizes), as opposed to the greater corporate group blessing of Our Lords thrust at this time, outside upon the outdoor grounds.

Finally they are depicted as running ahead into a rather miraculous move of service to 'neighbors'. The stuck truck may represent a ministry of Evangelism, or the Evangelist ministry being unstuck and moved up and out at this time......, that these young adult ones will play a vital part in -- along with the great move of Holy Spirit who pulls and leads (strong horse) in this "move", .....for harvest.

I believe the curious closing words Bill heard before awaking, are a prophetic clue to God's message in this dream, concerning the "Teams" and the young adults (Evangelists in the making)....., haggis-meal (stomach, or ministry concerning our 'self' and spirit = stomach) will be done with and we must eat of the 'fish-dish' meal, representing Evangelism, and the office of Evangelist being restored (stuck truck being moved out and up). As Jesus said to young apostle Peter,'... I will make you fishers of men...' = catching fish (people)..... His Harvest.

Walter as the leader, and Bill and some of the others in this smallish, now intimate gathering of 25-30 folks, may represent those more mature in their walk with The Lord, who will be the backers and foundation (apostolic prophetic team, which follows behind to the neighbors) of and for these powerhouse 'younger ones' ... Here come the new Evangelists !

The group turning together en masse and praising The Lord in thick anointing and joy, may represent this new direction of 'relationship one to another' in HIS Body in smaller groups, that God is depicting in Bill's prophetic dream. In other words, the turning together may represent a changing move/emphasis of God at this time ...... unto very close personal 'relationships', demanding of unity & trust as "One", offered as praise to Our Lord.....a preamble and firm foundational team-work accompanied by joy and strong anointing to then release the Evangelists for HIS Harvest of souls.
