PROPHETIC DREAM

SCENE 1:

​I was given a dream where I was with an old high school classmate and some others from my past. We were living in what appeared to be dorm rooms. I had surgery on my feet, and they were wrapped in white gauze. I was walking normally, and surprisingly, I wasn't in any pain. I noticed that the gauze on both feet was saturated with blood. My classmate informed me that the doctor told her to tell me to stay off my feet.

SCENE 2:

The dream transitioned me to a place that reminded me of the first apartment I stayed in with my mother. In fact, my mother and, I believe, my brother were in this portion of the dream. I was urging everyone that we had to go, to hurry up and pack. There was an urgency. Then I looked out of a window and saw devastation. The city looked as if a war was happening, and bombs had gone off that destroyed buildings. Then I saw an army marching to the city. I remember thinking, this is the army of Babylon.
​
The soldiers were searching through buildings looking for something. One soldier found a chest and brought it to his commander. The chest was opened, and what looked like shiny silver coins filled it. Another soldier found an old damaged laptop and asked the commander if he could keep it. Inspecting the laptop, the battery was missing. The commander let the soldier have it, and for some reason, the soldier was happy about it. 

SCENE 3:

​Then I observed a group of women who were fighting against the army. At first, it looked like the women were prevailing, but then out of nowhere came more soldiers that swarmed the women and caused them to run away. I remember thinking, those soldiers are going to rape and torture those women. 

FINAL SCENE:

​After this, I looked around and saw that there was no way we would be able to take all the furniture that was left in that apartment. I said, I will have to get two large storage units, which I cannot afford. I instructed everyone to get in the truck. This time, I felt the presence of my minister, business partner, best friend, and sister with me. We journeyed to my grandmother's house. Her house was different from where she used to live. I parked the truck on the side of her house, and we went inside. My grandmother asked me if I parked in the driveway and said that if I did, she would have to charge me. I told her I didn’t. The dream ended.

APOSTLE DEAIDRE NEWBY'S INTERPRETATION

The dream centers around the Body of Christ and His ministry activities.

1. The wrapped feet represented the state of the church. The feet represent the message of the gospel, and the church isn't fulfilling its job, its commission assigned to them by Christ (Matthew 28:19-20).
2. As you were urging everyone to quickly pack and move from where you all were to a different location, it represented the church trying to take old baggage into the new season. The methods, teachings, and other things the church has been used to doing will no longer be useful and, therefore, ineffective in this new season. So much so that it will become burdensome for them to carry, causing them to fall asleep in slumber during an hour when they cannot afford to, like the five virgins in Jesus' biblical illustration.
3. The army represented the attack on the church and this world's economy. This attack will cause the church to scatter and go into hiding. They will be forced to operate underground.
   
4. Although the women in the dream appear to be fighting with and for the church, they were actually witches in disguise.
