The Cross Revives the Church - UBM [David Eells]

I dreamed that my son Elijah and I were making our way through crowds of frustrated people in an airport. (John the Baptist ministry calling God's people to repentance.) (Without repentance God's people cannot live in heavenly places above this world. {Mal.4:5} Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Jehovah come. {6} And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers; lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. The children don't know their fathers in the faith. All they have known is Babylonian false prophets and haven't grown UP.)

The people were angry and frustrated because an announcement had been made overhead that all flights were "delayed" and no one knew why. (Flights being delayed is representative of earthly bondages continuing.) Why do earthly bondages continue? They don't know their need because they don't know their spiritual fathers. {Eph.1:3} Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ... All of our needs are supplied in heavenly places by abiding in Christ who is the Word. When we do not depart from the Word, we are a heavenly creation with heavenly benefits. Right behind John's repentance came Jesus and the church fathers. (I asked Father for a word concerning the announcement of the delayed flights in the airport and received {Isa.1:25} I will turn my hand on you, thoroughly purge away your dross, and will take away all your tin. {26} I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors (Fathers) as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called 'The city of righteousness, a faithful town'.)

As we came up to the last terminal (time is running out), an older woman with blonde hair that had streaks of gray throughout and a head covering came up to us and pleaded with us to come and help her daughter who was being a rebellious teenager. She was concerned because her daughter would not obey her concerning staying home and helping her clean the house and her bedroom. (Representing sanctification or "holiness without which no man shall see the Lord".) She kept sneaking out of the house to hang out with her friends at the mall and go shopping. (This woman represents the original church whose daughter has gone astray [in immature rebellion]. I believe there is one daughter in this dream because she represents the elect of God who will return to the true church. (Time is running out for the rebels to escape the power of this world before the judgments come. {Rom.2:3} And reckonest thou this, O man, who judgest them that practise such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? The rebellious teenager/church is about to miss her plane to safety. {Luk.21:34} But take heed to yourselves, lest haply your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day come on you suddenly as a snare: {35} for so shall it come upon all them that dwell on the face of all the earth. Meaning not in heavenly places in Christ. {36} But watch ye at every season, making supplication, that ye may prevail to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

{Heb.2:3} how shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? which having at the first been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard. Heavenly places is to be caught up to the throne of God's authority over this cursed world. {4} God also bearing witness with them, both by signs and wonders, and by manifold powers, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will. {5} For not unto angels did he subject the world to come, whereof we speak. {6} But one hath somewhere testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that thou visitest him? {7} Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; Thou crownedst him with glory and honor, And didst set him over the works of thy hands: {8} Thou didst put all things in subjection under his feet. To be in the heavens is to have everything worldly and of the curse under your feet. For in that he subjected all things unto him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we see not yet all things subjected to him. Whose fault is that? Jesus said that we have heavenly authority over this earth and its curse in {Mat.16:19} I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. {Rev.3:21} He that overcometh (teenager rebellion and lust), I will give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne.

While the woman was lamenting to us about the daughter, I noticed an escalator off to the side of the terminal. I noticed that there were many people packed onto the down side (falling away) and only two or three individuals going up on the upside (those ascending to heavenly throne authority) to the next level. (Only one out of the four bore fruit in the parable of the sower.) (We are called to heavenly places, which are in Christ. Much of the church is earth-bound because they have not learned to abide in Christ who is the Word.)

Then the woman's voice came back into my focus and hearing as Elijah was agreeing that we would go with her to her house and help her daughter. (The Bride will bring repentance to the rebellious church but not before some judgment arrives.)

The scene changed as we found ourselves standing at the entrance into the daughter's bedroom from within the house. The mother was opening the door and gesturing for us to enter. Her daughter's room looked like a shop at the mall. (Love of the earthly stops one from receiving love of the heavenly places.) There were shoe displays and mannequin torsos displaying risqué teen clothing. (Many are in idolatry [and lust] with the world.)

The mother explained that the daughter was hardly ever home; choosing the mall and her friends over home life with the family. (The heavenly family is departed from for earthly pursuits. We all know people like this who are full of excuses but they will find out to late that they didn't eat their Word.)

Elijah and I began to walk around the room to get an idea of what to say to the daughter and how to help her. I noticed a white door with glass panes in the top half of it on the other side of the room that led into the room from the outside. There was a short hall entryway between the room and the door. (The door is Christ and represents salvation.) I noticed some activity going on in the entryway. (This is where most of the Church stops, not bearing the fruit of Christ in their soul and ministry.)

David was busy doing something. Then Michael came up to us and began explaining about a project that David had been working on for a while for this girl. Michael showed me a few of the nails that he had helped gather for the project. He had quite a few gathered in a small silver metal bucket near the wall of the entryway. (The nails are to hold our flesh on our cross so that we may have the resurrection life of Christ in heavenly places of throne authority.) (David and Michael are representative of the Man-child ministers that have been being prepared and are preparing for this end-time harvest.)

Suddenly, a bunch of the Local UBM brethren came into the room the same direction that Elijah and I had entered. I saw that everyone was in cooperation with one another to transform the daughter's room. (The apostate Church will see a role model in the Bride that they never did in their leadership.) I saw Merlene consulting with the other ladies to alter all the clothing into more appropriate things for the daughter to wear. (The mature don't flash flesh, they crucify it. Modesty is necessity.) The men were discussing how to move around some of the shelves (too many of God's things are on shelves) and bring in appropriate furniture for a bedroom. (To rest in faith in God's promises.) (Being in one accord and one Spirit with body ministry for our little sister. {Psa.45:13} The king's daughter within the palace is all glorious: Her clothing is inwrought with gold. {14} She shall be led unto the king in broidered work: The virgins her companions that follow her Shall be brought unto thee. {15} With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led: They shall enter into the king's palace. {16} Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, Whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth.

Then the door to the outside opened and David stepped over the threshold carrying a large lightweight transparent cross over his right shoulder. (The Davids will first bear the cross to death of themselves so that they may give it to others. {Heb.12:2} looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.) Michael said excitedly, "There it is. That's the project!" I asked Father for a word concerning David and Michael and the project and received 1 Timothy 2:5 (context: 5,6). {1Ti.2:5} For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, himself man, Christ Jesus, {6} who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony to be borne in its own times. Just as Jesus paid the price for us to be freed, so will He do it in the Man-child and much fruit will be borne. {Joh.12:24} Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it die, it beareth much fruit.

David knelt down and gently laid the cross down with the foot at the threshold and the head where the room began. He reached over the cross and pulled the bucket of nails toward him as Michael went over and handed him a heavy hammer. As David pulled the nails out of the bucket, they began to light up a beautiful sky blue like neon signs. He nailed them in groups of three at all four points on the cross. (Giving others an example of death to self. There were 12 blue nails representing discipleship. This cross bridges the gap so that those who are without can enter the house. [The now-holy house and place of heavenly provision. No cross, no crown.])

Once David had finished, the daughter came home and as she stood looking in amazement at the entryway, she couldn't believe that David had cared enough to do that for her. She was so touched that she had to come in and see the rest of the room. (The Church's eyes will be opened through the crucifixion of the Man-child and they will enter in to the Kingdom life.) She was amazed at how we had all worked together to transform her room and she really liked what she saw. Everything was so new to her as she walked around admiring the transformation. I went over to her as she stood in front of some shelves that the men had restored. I watched her pick up some sort of tool off the shelf, wondering what it was. It had a part of it that glowed blue like the nails in the cross. I began to explain to her what it was and how to use it. Her face was filled with wonder as I watched her transform before my eyes into a young boy with beautiful blonde hair. (The transformation of our little sister into Christ-likeness through our witness and examples. Showing her how to use the tools of the Gospel in order to overcome.) Then I woke up.

I asked Father for a verse or text for this dream and received by random John 20:19 (context: 19-23). {Joh.20:19} When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. {20} And when he had said this, he showed unto them his hands and his side. Proofs of crucifixion and resurrection. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord. {21} Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace be unto you: as the Father hath sent me, even so send I you. To crucifixion and resurrection. {22} And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Spirit (The great power of God to lose our life to gain Jesus' life and ministry.): {23} whose soever sins ye forgive, they are forgiven unto them; whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.
