Declared Now and Forever

Those Who Have Been Rescued, Saved By The Living God!!
Children Who Are Now Washed, Covered, Clothed and Sealed With The Eternal Declaration-Not Guilty!!

I approached one of those standing there and asked him the meaning of all this, So he told me and gave me the interpretation of these things. Daniel 7: 16

Sunday early in the morning, while it was very dark, I had a dream.
And it woke me up.
That I was with my family.
We were all hanging out.
Doors opened, people all around, the inside and outside of the house.
Then I looked to my right and saw a huge pride of lions approaching, coming for us.
So I started to pull everyone into the house.
I kept grabbing them by their hands and pulling them inside.
But people weren’t paying attention.
They didn’t see the lions and even had their backs to them.
So they got to us, with people still outside.
They got right up to my family, but my family didn’t notice.
Only I could see them.
They were near enough to touch them.
But when they arrived, they didn’t bite.
Then I woke up!

I thought well that wasn’t a fun stress dream.
Then I read my Bible and got ready for church, forgetting all about it.

When I got to the church parking lot, I opened up my Bible randomly for a word for the day or just a bit of encouragement before all the services.
And I ended up opening straight to Daniel in the lion’s den.
I started smiling and laughing.
God had given me the meaning of the dream.

That He shut the mouth of the lions!!!
For me!
For my family!
For my people!
That we are innocent before God.
Meaning we all have been saved or are going to be saved.

That it was encouragement that all the people I have been trying to bring into my house, my household—like Cornelius and Lydia, the Jailer, and Noah did for their people to be saved—that all my people will be saved by the blood of the lamb.
That-He-will save them.
That-He-will protect them.
That-He-is in charge of the lions.

That the lions won’t be allowed to devour my family, my people, whether I get them into my house or not!
Because He is in charge and He won’t allow them to be lost.
That He is over my house, my sidewalk, my territory, all my land.
That those that I love, my family (biological or not) that—He—will save them.

Knowing that relieved me.
Knowing that encouraged me.
Knowing that let me fall back into my Father’s arms resting on Him.

Because He is sovereign over the lions.
Because He is sovereign over the king Nebuchadnezzars, the king Darius’s and all kings.
Because He is sovereign over all situations and life forms, too.

But it was also, as it turned out, preparation for things that were coming during the day.
Lions that were coming to attack me that day.
That Jesus has already shut the mouth of the lions.
That they weren’t going to be able to hurt me.
That I would be found innocent!!

And it led me to speak this over two other people, reminding them, that they are truly seen as innocent in God’s eyes, too.
That I was able to speak life over two people, that were in this dream, that needed to know, the moment they received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, their past, their present, their future, is now cleared.
That no matter what someone spoke over them, Jesus declared them innocent.
For He paid for us.
For every wrong thought.
For every wrong action.
For every wrong intention.
Paid in full at the cross.
So when the enemy of our souls tries to accuse us before God, we are declared innocent, in His eyes for all eternity.

May we know that we know that we know our Father God is the explainer of mysteries, the revealer of truths., the One who encourages, the One who gives His children wisdom and insight that brings healing and prepares us for what is to come and teaches how to bring healing to others.

May we know that we know that we know because of what Jesus did on the cross, anyone who has received Him as Lord and Savior, now has power to walk around outside in safety, ignoring the lions, for they had their mouths shut by our Maker, our Creator, our Father in Heaven and they cannot devour us anymore.

May we know that we know that we know that if we do not know yet, as a believer in Jesus Christ, that we are innocent in the courts of God, our new heart beating within our chest, our new heart of Jesus Christ that leads and guides us, our new heart that Jesus paid for on the cross, that we would learn it, receive it, start wearing it on minds, that we are indeed innocent, set free from any eternal payments, washed clean in the lambs blood of life, covered with white royal robes of His holiness and His glowing radiance of freedom.
