Do you know that God speaks to us in dreams? It is so important to listen to your dreams. Write them down and share them with fellow believers. Ask God to give you the interpretation. He will. Don't let the importance of them be minimized.

I had a dream recently that is significant to the healing ministry. I was clearing away cedar from around a live oak tree in our yard. I cleared out cedar after cedar. It was as if they were choking the very life out of this tree. I then could see the twisted and gnarled trunk of this beautiful form. Like a column crafted by unseen hands, the base of this tree had struggled and twisted to get to the light above, and to escape the grip of the cedar trees. Also hiding its beauty was a huge vine that grew up into all the foliage of the tree. This other intruder with all its tentacles hid all the light that would gladly shine through the branches of the tree. Like Tarzan or Jane, I swung on the vine, tugging and pulling to no avail. It was then that a golden sword appeared on the ground. With a mighty blow I laid the ax to the root of this massive vine. I was then able to pull it down and light began to stream through the splendid radiance.

The light revealed a two story house with green mold and mildew all over the side form years of being in the darkness. My husband joined me (after all the work was finished). Timing is everything. Ha. The owner of the house came out and thanked us for shedding the light on his house. He had not known how bad his house looked.

I woke up and asked God what all this meant? And, of course, He told me. God's Word says we shall be called "Oaks of Righteousness-a Planting of the Lord." That oak was me. The cedar were the things I allow to crowd in my life that don't belong. These are works of the flesh, sin, and the enemy's ploys. I had been weeding them out through a bible study on "getting free" I finally got to the place where I could see the work of God in myself, but it was being choked out by a deep inner root of rejection I had received in my childhood. The sword was the Word of God to cut the root away. When I did that , the Light of Jesus came flooding into my soul to heal and deliver me. Joy and a new energy accompanied me in renewal.

Praise be to God whose might power at work in us is able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond what we can ask or think. I am freer today than I have ever been. We now apply the teaching of laying the ax to the root in our Mission of Healing, and are seeing remarkable results as one after another is set free from inner bondage. Physical healing follows as well in some of the cases we pray for. More on this later.
