PROPHETIC DREAM: GOLD IN ANCIENT WELLS
Many years ago I had a dream that I have never shared publically, and I felt to share it now.
In the dream I was walking with Jesus across a field. We eventually came to a dome like structure with no walls- just a roof. Within this dome was a round pool that was smallish, but was very very deep.
But the water was dirty. You could see from the color there was a lot of mud, that this pool did not have a tiled floor but was rather cut right into the ground.
As Jesus and I are standing by the edge he looks at me and says "get in".
Now, I really didn't want to. It looked cold and dirty. But because it was Jesus asking I got in.
I didn't like it, I felt cold and uncomfortable.
Then he said "Dive to the bottom to get the gold".
Now I actually doubted there was any gold in this pool. But because Jesus asked, I dived down to the bottom, touched the ground a little, found nothing so swam back and popped my head back out of the water to find Jesus.
"Look again". He said. I was so confused. Surely there was nothing here in this horrible mud infested pool! It felt so slimy between my fingers. But because it was Jesus asking I swam down to the floor of this pool again.
This time I dug a little deeper into the soft, brown sludge. I stopped worrying about getting dirty. All of the sudden I could feel rocks. I didn't know what they were but I grabbed them tightly and swam to the surface once more.
I opened my hands and tried to wash away the mud. There, in my hands were nuggets of gold. Not only in my hands, but the movement I had created in stirring the waters had created streams of gold right throughout the water! I looked in surprise at Jesus, he smiled. He knew it was there even when I did not.
I believe today, the Lord wants you to know that what seems like mud, that seems uncomfortable, if you are not afraid to get your hands dirty and dig a little deeper you are going to find the treasures of heaven. Not just personally but for your nation.
STOP JUST SWIMMING IN THE MUD - it is time to dig the wells of intercession.
What feels unclear is going to be made clear.
I believe the pool to be a well of intercession. He is calling us to to go deeper. And not just skim the surface as we pray, but go deep. We may not see initially- but the gold will be there.
It's going to feel hopeless sometimes.
When it does, keep digging.
It's going to feel uncomfortable- keep digging.
There is a call to intercession in this hour - that's where the gold is - that's where the solution is.
We are not hopeless. We are not without the Lords help. It's time to go deeper.
I declare over our nations today prophetic solutions for political and personal breakthrough like we have never seen before! Nothing will be hidden- all will be revealed as we intercede and not pull back. Let's go deep and get our hands dirty in the ancient wells of prayer.
