Disarmed principalities and powers.
The Lord showed me in a dream what that meant.
In a dream He showed me, not so much what He did, but the result of
what He did.
In my dream there was a big creature, not human, but human like, legs,
arms, head, only large and grotesque.
He was backed up to my front door, holding a baseball bat in a
defensive position.
However his hands couldn’t grip the bat. It was as if his fingers
hands and arms were scabbed and scared from being burned, as a matter
of fact, his fingers and thumbs were burned totally off.
Then I awoke from the dream and the Lord immediately began to speak to
me about what the dream meant.
First, He called the creature, a high power.
Second, the creature was positioned for battle, but do to his
disformity, could not wage war effectively.
Third the Lord said his disformity and inability to wage war, was a
direct result from Him, when He disarmed and spoiled principalities.
The Lord used the NIV version of Colosians 2:15, when He said He
disarmed principalities.
Now until last night, when I read that verse I thought, disarmed meant
to take away a weapon.
But the Lord showed me, He took away their ability to use a weapon, by
taking away the use of their arms by the deformity of their hands,
which ultimately took away their ability to use a weapon.
Now why the dream and interpretation?
As the Lord was telling me about this creature, it was quite clear why.
Either in my life or in the life of the church, we are getting ready
to engage or encounter higher powers in the heavenlies.
By showing me their inability to wage proper war, builds my courage
and trust in the Lord, and there is nothing to fear.
Our foe is already disabled, or as the Lord said, he took away the use
of their arms. He disarmed them.
