In this dream I was first standing in the midst of a completely empty or derelict car park. It was derelict because the ministry vehicles of others were no longer present. And though the ground was made of concrete or bitumen or tar, or similar hard-wearing material, it had been sitting empty so long, that the weeds had begun to grow up through the cracks.
I then found myself facing toward the other side of that same car park. This time it looked more like a tennis court with a high chain wire fence around it, perhaps indicating there had been a lot of going back and forth in that place. Some kind of plant or creeping vine was growing over the top of the fencing, so that my vision was obscured from what was happening on the other side.
The difference between this scene and the first, was that in the second, I was parked in my own car, or ministry vehicle. The other difference I noted in the two scenes I was in, was that the first scene was in the daylight, whilst the second scene took place in the dark of night, perhaps indicating that the hour was getting late to resolve it.
As I sat in my vehicle in the dark, another car pulled up behind me to my left and parked behind me. Knowing that I was by myself in an otherwise deserted place in the dark, I began to feel a little concerned. I was wondering to myself, what is that person doing there and why are they parking behind me? To my horror, I then saw a male figure hop out of that same vehicle and begin to walk towards me.
At this point, in an act of self-preservation, I immediately locked all four of my vehicle’s doors from the inside in order to keep myself safe. This person continued to walk toward my vehicle and to my horror simply opened the door on the front passenger side even though I had definitely locked it. But He then reached in His hand toward me to shake my hand and introduced Himself saying, “Hi, I’m Hosea.”
An immediate calm came over me as I realized He was not a threat to me, and I then reached out my right hand in response, to shake His, saying, “Hi Hosea.”
Hosea, translated ‘Salvation’ in the Hebrew – See Strong’s Concordance; then walked in front of my vehicle with some sort of racket or strong stick in His hand (I cannot remember which) and began to bat away multiple missiles in the form of rocks, stones or golf balls (again I cannot remember which) which had begun flying over the fence towards my ministry vehicle. I knew then, that this Man, Whom I now know was God in human form, the living Christ, was protecting me from the flying insults and the words of others that were being spoken against me. His Name was and is, the Lord Jesus Christ. And He will do the same for you today if you trust in Him. Amen. Amen. Amen.
The Apostle Paul said,
“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.” – Ephesians 6:18 – 20
Jesus Christ Himself said, “I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” – John 9:4 & 5
And the Psalmist said,
“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” – Psalm 27:1
