Last night, 05/27/10, I had a dream. I went inside a Jazz or R&B club. I bump into this lady. She puts her hand on my shoulder and says, “Excuse me” or something like that. I notice it is Beyoncé. I sat down. She went to the stage to sing. She began to sing. As she was singing, her voice cracked. The crowd actually booed her. This caught my attention. Why are they booing Beyoncé? Some reading this are laughing. Well, she said her manager recommended her not to do the show because she had a fever and was ill. She did the show anyways. She continued to sing and then suddenly vomited on stage and left. The dream ended.
This is my guess what the dream means.
The club is the secular world or social system. Beyoncé is the church. My desire is to protect and love His Church. It is something in me that does not go away. I think that was why I was a little taken when they booed her. The church is under law in many things and causes strife, sickness, disease and confusion, but in spite of this the ‘show’ must go on. The word of hypocrite1 in the Greek means, “the acting of a stage player.” The Greek root mean, “to simulate, feign, pretend.” Ironic.
If a believer is under self-imposed law they will likely operate with self-strength2. In this self-strength, Gal. 5:19-21 occurs. A mess, but one Christ has died for. Thank you Lord. In all actuality and truth, we are dead to what we think or judge against ourselves. He is the only one who could judge or condemn us, but what is His response?
Romans 8:31-36, “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect?Who is he who condemns? It is God who justifies. It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.”
His response is, “I will be born of a woman, under the law, become the Last Adam or man, share the Gospel, will die for all of creation, go to Sheol (Hell), resurrect, be glorified and sit down at the right hand of the Father for you freely because I AM LOVE and I love you.”
Another tangent, but worth it.
In short, He separates us from us and ruins who we thought we were to be who we really are in Him since before the foundations of the earth according to the good pleasure of the Father’s will.
This will happen and is happening according to the will of the Holy Spirit.
Eph. 5:27, “That he (Christ) might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.”
In Him, the Church is NOT under the curse of self-imposed law. In Him, is Life and righteousness. The church or ‘called out ones’ will be the Church not because I am writing this, but because He does not change His mind.
