DREAM: WISE AND FOOLISH VIRGINS
5/30/2016
I was surrounded by lots of people in a huge house. There were two *teams*. I was in charge of the team called “Lift” and we were dressed in long white gowns; we were praising Jesus and so in love with The Lord. The other team had to answer to a board of directors to get approval on what they were doing. The other team came down stairs inside another room and the girl in charge of their team was dressed in a black shirt and blue jeans. I could only see her back but they seemed in agreement with the people they were talking with.
I went up the white stairs in the living room so joyful and singing worship. In the middle of the house was a white gigantic living room with steps and seats all over where loud praise and worship was taking place. We were so happy singing and filled with the Holy Spirit. Suddenly the other team said we are happy let’s go for drinks. I said no, we can’t celebrate acting the way of the world. We are transformed now, let’s celebrate by praising Jesus! And our team did but the other one quickly disengaged and some fell asleep while others started getting distracted with other things. At the bottom of the stairs was a retail shop selling hair pins, junk and two pairs of shoes side by side, one pair white and the other one black. Another girl was trying on jeans and someone was telling her how skinny she was. These people at the bottom were not concerned at all with worship.
Then the other team girls were fixing their hair in rollers and putting on makeup and so anxious with the way they looked. I thought “why are they worried with this stuff, there is no time left before the door shuts” but they didn’t listen, and I separated myself from them and I woke up.
As I woke up, The Lord impressed on my heart this is a parable of the foolish virgins in Matthew 25. One team is wise; they go high in the spirit [stairs] and keep their lamps filled with oil [The Holy Spirit – the Spirit of Truth] with the Word of God, praise and worship, watching and preparing themselves for My coming. The other team is too concerned with things of this world, they have been deceived by false doctrines and they walk in darkness and are not ready for My coming.
On appearance, the foolish team seems to have all that the wise team has, [a form of godliness] but their hearts are not prepared and they are not watching for Me nor do they love the truth (the Word); they are attending congregations that are not feeding them the truth. The time will come when the door will shut and those not ready will not come in!
The retail shop represents the world. The skinny girl represents lack of spiritual maturity and not feeding on the Word of God. The white shoes represent righteousness (gospel of peace) and the black evil works. They are side by side as the wheat is with the tares. The Lord pointed me to this scripture relating to the purity of the oil as the purity of our hearts to keep our lamps constantly filled as well as knowing and keeping God’s Word. [Exo 27:20 NKJV] 20 “And you shall command the children of Israel that they bring you pure oil of pressed olives for the light, to cause the lamp to burn continually.
In Matthew 7:13-23 The Lord warns us strongly to walk thru the narrow gate and not be carried away by the cares of this world. He also warns us to beware of false prophets in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves ready to lead as many Christians as they can in the way of error. Many will come on the Day of The Lord claiming that they are Christians and they did all their works in His name, but they were deceived serving the enemy and not Jesus. He also told us how to test the fruits of the teachers, preachers, evangelists, to know wether they are from God or satan’s agents. God’s word is our shield and buckler! God’s word is our plumb line for us to go by and to test if what others are telling us is the truth!
[Mat 7:13-23 NKJV] 13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide [is] the gate and broad [is] the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 “Because narrow [is] the gate and difficult [is] the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. 15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 “Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 “A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor [can] a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 “Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 “Therefore by their fruits you will know them. 21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 “Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 “And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
Be ready, for I am coming quickly!
Here are the Foolish virgins scriptures:
[Mat 25:1-13 NKJV] 1 “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 “Now five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish. 3 “Those who [were] foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 4 “but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 “But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. 6 “And at midnight a cry was [heard]: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ 7 “Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 8 “And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us [some] of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 “But the wise answered, saying, ‘[No], lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ 10 “And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. 11 “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ 12 “But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 13 “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
[Luk 12:35-37 NKJV] 35 “Let your waist be girded and [your] lamps burning; 36 “and you yourselves be like men who wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding, that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately. 37 “Blessed [are] those servants whom the master, when he comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that he will gird himself and have them sit down [to eat], and will come and serve them.
