The Great House Restored - UBM [David Eells]

In this dream, I'm being shown a great house. I have the sense that I'm a steward of this great house. (The house of God is His people.) Uncle Bill (who usually represents the Holy Spirit in my dreams) is with me, pointing things out here and there. This great house is like an English palace or a great estate like Biltmore. The remarkable features of this edifice are the staircases and the dome that arched above them and provided light. (The dome is meant to give light for those who would advance in their heavenward climb.) One staircase that I noted had a railing that was taller than usual. As I'm dreaming, my thought is, "It would be impossible for anyone to fall from that staircase".

There are just a few minor things left to be done on this great house and then it will be finished and ready. For one thing, one of the staircases is topped with a finial (from word "finis" which means "end") that is wrong and needs replaced. (Religious leaders, because of the lack of faith and respect for God's Word, have placed limits on the height to which we may attain in God which is selling us far short of the Biblical goal of Christ-likeness.) For another thing, the dome which tops the edifice is very slightly tilted (isn't sitting quite 'square' and needs to be adjusted). (This would reflect the light wrongly and obscure the truth.) (In real life, this would be a huge undertaking, but it didn't seem that huge a task in the dream.) (It is so simple to not depart from the Word as it was given.) I'm given to know that beautiful top part was once an oversized, concaved candelabra that provided reflected light. (The Church once were the lamp stands, which represented Christ's light on earth, and guided earthly souls heavenward but traditions of men have long since replaced this.) But in this new structure, it had been re-worked and directionally changed to function as a cupola on the top of this great house. (A cupola would be fine to keep the latter rain out but would do little to safely enlighten the way toward heaven.) Also, there are a few areas of minor soil or dust from construction that need a cleaning crew. (The house needs sanctification from the earthly corruption.) Lastly, I noticed that there are a few major pieces of furniture that still needed to be placed in strategic areas. (So that sojourners may rest along the way.)

AAt one point, I'm reaching into some dark compartment, like a car trunk, but with more nooks and crannies. I'm pulling things out of this dark compartment. At one point, it's like I hit a pile of used nails, nuts, bolts, whatever, and I reject these as unworthy. (The methods that have been used to hold this house together through the dark ages are truly unworthy to be used in these end times to finish the house.The original methods of repentance and faith in the Wordhave given way to just accept Jesus, agree with your sect and submit blindly to the Pastor.) I extract some small chairs, ones that are child-sized. I had thought these chairs had been lost or broken, but here they are in perfect shape! (The old ways are the best. Except we become as little children, resting in our Father's words, we will not enter the kingdom of God.)

Even though the great house is not completely finished, one group has already arrived -- the teachers. They are all excited, as if they've come to a great conference or assembly. (God's teachers have been hidden but are coming on the scene. {Isa.30:19} For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem; thou shalt weep no more; he will surely be gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear, he will answer thee. {20} And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be hidden anymore, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers; {21} and thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it; when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. The teachers will restore way behind us, the one written in the book, which we have left behind.)

In the last scene, I'm looking for a soundtrack of music to play in the great house. It seems as if I'm looking for either Phantom of the Opera (virgin saved from a dark attraction) or Pride and Prejudice (bride is united with her bridegroom after overcoming sin). (As a virgin Bride coming out of darkness will be restored to her groom, so this house will be restored to more than its former glory. {Hag.2:3} Who is left among you that saw this house in its former glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes as nothing? ... {9} The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, saith Jehovah of hosts; and in this place will I give peace, saith Jehovah of hosts.)

When I woke up, I asked God for His Word and He immediately led me to Isaiah 9:1,2: "But there shall be no gloom to her that was in anguish...The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, upon them have the light shined". (As it was with Jesus, the coming Man-child ministry in which His Word lives will turn the lights back on for the saints to climb toward heavenly sanctification.)
