The Gifts Series: Part II: Vision of the Lady in the Golden Bed




Vision of the Lady in the Golden Bed

The Lord gave me this vision a couple days ago. I saw this lady in her 30's on this very large bed. The bed was solid and golden with some black trip. The sheets were not gold but of that hue and they were expensive. It was a pristine bed fit for a queen - king-sized. Yet, there was no king. As the vision begins, she jolts awake on the left side (right is you are looking at the bed). And I just realized why she jolts awake. The bed starts to move, downward on a slight incline. But she still has this clueless look on her face. She is beautiful and as fresh as a daisy obviously with an incredible skin regimen. However, she is in bed with the world and the jolting was supposed to awaken her to her condition; and the incline was slight so that she could actually get out of the bed. Her husband, or king, was not there because she had abandoned him, she had been her own ruler who got herself to where she was now.

Looking at this bed there is absolutely nothing that would detract you from getting into it. The problem though, was the downward slide. That slight incline was God's mercy to give her time to get out of the bed before there was either a sudden drop or an incline and acceleration from which she could not escape.

You see, she was not discerning enough to avoid getting into that bed, her gifts had gotten her there but she did not belong.

Another very important point to note is that she was sleeping with black satin beauty blinders, others call them eye masks. She was voluntarily blinded to her own plight. I say voluntarily because, she would have put the blinders on herself before turning off the lights and laying down.

Another problem is that this is a bed, a place of intimacy and a place of unconsciousness. Both are a problem if the partner is "the world."

The gold signifies the money and the love of it, which is how she probably ended up there in the first place. The wonderful thing is, God still considers her His because He is trying to get her out in time. He is saying, it is time to get out of bed with the world and come back to Him.

She has to remember that the gifts He has given her are not her own but His and for His purposes. She is a channel through whom He will use them to bless others.

What That Means for Us

Friends to whom the Lord has given gifts and talents. Please, please, please yield them back to him, asking Him to invest them where He sees fit. Do not take the glory and money and glitter and think that your end will be a good one. Don't be blinded by the glitter because if the slide is able to take you away from Him completely, it would not have been worth it. "What would it profit you to gain the whole world and lose your soul" (Matt. 16:26; Luke 9:25).

This is your season of mercy and grace but the Bible says that God will not contend with man forever. There will come a day of reckoning. Won't you listen to the One who loves you beyond measure? Turn to Him and know what true love and acceptance is. 

You musicians, dancers, actors and actresses, singers, poets, artists, techno-geniuses, writers, filmmakers, business geniuses, everyone with gifts from God, if this is speaking to you, then the Lord is trying to get your attention. Get out of the bed that the world has enticed you into with things that will only lead you to damnation. Turn to or turn back to God, NOW! His mercy is calling you and His grace is pleading with you. Come to Him. You will never regret it because you will have peace in your soul and He will multiply what He has already given you. If you choose not to, then you will lose a great deal.....everything!

Prayer Against Worldliness


Lord, I pray for all of the people reading this post. Father, please  counsel them through your Holy Spirit. Encourage them with a revelation and manifestation of your love. I pray, God, that they would seek You while You may still be found and that they would not be lost. Lord, strengthen them to get out of bed with the world and turn to You. Give them a heart of repentance to start afresh with You and set them among other believers who would encourage them in godliness. Let Your light shine in and through them as they yield their gifts to You, and invest in Your Kingdom, so that You would have a mighty return on your investments.

Father, plunder the enemy's camp of those he thought he had all locked down. I pray rescue, Lord! Rescue the ones who are cluelessly giving in! Rescue the ones who have been enticed, yet know they do not belong! Rescue the one is conscious disobedience! Rescue the ones in deception that they are doing what you want them to do. RESCUE, LORD!!! Rescue! And let Your Holy Spirit reveal the truth of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Let them turn their back on compromise and be champions of Truth and Light.

Let this be done, O Lord, in Your name and for the good of your Kingdom. Be glorified in all of our lives, I pray, in Jesus mighty and precious name. Amen.
