Prophetic word for
today (p.i.)
Darkness over the
coliseum

Word

by: Marcella
I dreamed I was in a huge coliseum full of so many
peoples ... so crowded. I was praying for the people. In the middle of the
prayer, a line was formed only of young people. As I started to pray for them,
all the lights went out --- complete darkness, so thick --- and I knew I had to
exit quickly. As I was running from the top of the coliseum down, I couldn't see
where I was going. I could only hear my footsteps loud. I was shocked. I was
running down steps in the dark, and I didn't fall or slip. As I got near the
door, I knew it was about to close.
Our
brief comments
Fellow believer, I am stunned at God's
awesome greatness!!! In the
last posting prior to this
one, the Lord led us (without us planning it) to share on the "thick darkness"
that He dwells in. A few hours before we finished that posting, the Lord
suddenly spoke to my heart and said, "The coliseum dream is next".
I said, "OK, Lord". As I was pasting that dream from its original e-mail onto
this webpage, I was surprised to read the phrase "complete darkness, so thick".
I now understand why the Lord wanted this dream to be next. As you can see, it
was sent to us 572 days (some 19 months) ago, but it now turns out that this
dream was a spiritual complement to a word we would post 571 days
later!!! How were we supposed to know? Praised be the Lord God of Israel! This
dream is also a spiritual complement to the "Turban threat" dream posted 23 days
ago, 549 days after this dream was emailed to us. Fellow believer, something is
brewing in the air!
{Fellow believer, there are threads in
this dream that have been left unexplored or partially explored. We pray that
you will follow up on these threads. If the Lord shares something with you
regarding this dream, please let us know. Thank you.}
This dream has
several elements to consider:
|
The "huge
coliseum" correlates with the "huge stadium" shown to sister
Chelsea Brown in the "Turban
threat" dream. As we said before, the "huge coliseum" in this dream and
the "huge stadium" in sister Chelsea's dream immediately reminded me of the
"Los Angeles Coliseum". As we have said
before, Los Angeles
(L.A.) is the stronghold of Latin American (L.A.) influence in
America. The name "Los Angeles" also points to
the "angels" worshipped by
the American Church, i.e.- the
"ministers" whose cadavers the Church is
too
afraid to remove.
|
|
At the beginning of the dream, sister Marcella
was praying for people,
meaning that she was ministering to them. This speaks of an impartation of
"ministerial grace", which points to the black
horse of the Apocalypse, since it is at the black-horse stage that we
receive an impartation of "ministerial grace"
from God. From the dream's description,
it can be inferred that the dream took place at
night, which speaks of the "darkness of
outer space". As we saw in the
previous posting, the lonely
wilderness of black-horse impartation is equivalent to the "outer space"
that lies outside the Earth's gravitational pull.
|
|
The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum has two
life-sized headless bronze statues at the front. As we have said before,
"bronze" in Scripture is a figure of God's "formative" judgments. Therefore, these
headless statues point to the "Goliaths" who are killed and decapitated by
the invisible judgments of
black-horse David.
|
|
The
line of young people that formed in the middle of the prayer
points to the green-horse army of
young
buccaneers that must rise up once the black horse has killed Goliath.
|
|
When
the lights went out, sister Marcella and everyone at the coliseum
went from a position of "strength" to one of "weakness". Therefore, it
points to the
transition from "5"
(the strength of "ministerial grace") to "6"
(weakness and vulnerability). As we have shared
before, it is impossible to
make the transition from the black-horse
stage to the green-horse stage without
the willingness to become vulnerable. After exercising ministerial grace for
3 and a half years, the Lord Jesus knew at the Garden of Gethsemane that it
was time for Him to become utterly vulnerable (Matthew 26:36-46). He knew
that He had the "ministerial grace" to call 12 legions of angels that would
have easily rescued Him from His captors the night of His betrayal (Matthew
26:53), but He knew that it was time for Him to become
vulnerable in order to draw "Korah" unto Him. As a green-horse rider, He was
now to accept being
shackled,
killed and taken all the way down to Sheol. It
was only by descending to the lowest point that His journey would be
completed.
As we said above, the line of young people
points to the formation of God's green-horse
army, meaning that a transition towards the green
horse became necessary.
This is the spiritual reason why the lights went out at that precise moment.
|
|
After the lights went out, sister Marcella
describes the ensuing darkness as "complete
darkness, so thick". As we shared in
the previous posting, those
who are unwilling to recognize the "dark side" of the anointing cannot enter
into the green-horse stage. Those who only want the "bright and cheery" side
of the anointing -- the side of miracles and healings -- will not be willing to
make the transition and cross the Jordan into the Promised Land. You must
accept the God who "dwells in thick darkness" to complete your spiritual
journey.
|
|
After the coliseum became enveloped in thick
darkness, sister Marcella knew that it was
time to exit quickly. This means that she understood that it was
time to make a spiritual "transition". She knew that the "black-horse
coliseum" stage where you exercise "ministerial grace" was over, and that it
was time to make a "green-horse descent".
Sister Marcella's
hasty exit also points
to the Israelites' hasty exit from Egypt:
"Thou shalt eat no leavened
bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even
the bread of affliction; for
thou camest forth out of the
land of Egypt in haste:
that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of
Egypt all the days of thy life" (Deuteronomy 16:3)
After 9 judgment plagues, Pharaoh had been
exposed as a weak, mortal man who was powerless against the
invisible
judgments of God. After the wave of black-horse judgments that had come
against him, Pharaoh was now a "bald Korah", but, in typical Korah fashion,
he was too stubborn to recognize the nakedness of his
matriarchal soul. This
prompted the
10th plague, a green-horse plague of "Death and Sheol" that
filled Egypt with an atmosphere of Sheol lamentation as the Egyptian
firstborns were mercilessly killed by God:
"And Pharaoh rose up in the
night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a
great cry in Egypt;
for there was not a
house where there was not one dead"
(Exodus 12:30)
Even though it was a night of liberation for the
Israelites, it was a bitter night of death and darkness for them as well.
"5Your lamb shall
be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the
sheep, or from the goats: 6And ye shall keep it up until the
fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation
of Israel shall kill it
in the evening. 7And
they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the
upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. 8And
they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened
bread; and with bitter
herbs they shall eat
it." (Exodus 12:5-8)
That night, the Israelites were to remain in
their homes, meaning that their homes turned into "Sheol
Paradise-caves" where they
awaited their liberation. That night, the Israelites became fully acquainted
with the "dark side" of God's visitation. It was a night of merciless death
and emotional devastation throughout Egypt. It was not a night of "happy
lights" and "earthly blessings".

Sister Marcella ran "from
the top of the coliseum down", which speaks of the descent of
green-horse riders to Sheol.
|

Sister Marcella
could not see where
she was stepping as she descended. This means that she was spiritually
"walking on water". She was acting in a faith that transcended natural
limitations. As we have said
before, America did not make the transition
from her black-horse stage to her green-horse stage because she became
a
land of "doubting Thomases". Those in the American Church who were on the
edge of the river Jordan were unwilling to do anything that was "too crazy".
Because they chose to "err on the side of caution", their safety bunker
became
a cautious pit of aborted dreams. When you enter your green-horse
stage, you must be willing to act as a "crazy fractal believer" who cannot
live "conditioned to not make mistakes". You must be willing to act in
utter
abandonment as you step out into totally uncharted and "unwritten" spiritual
land.
|

As sister Marcella got near the door, she "knew
it was about to close". This speaks of the sense of "pregnant
urgency"
borne by God's green-horse riders. As spiritual
watchmen (as Issachars who discern the times and seasons of God
--- 1 Chronicles 12:32), God's green-horse
riders are strongly aware of the
kairos doors of opportunity in the
spirit realm, and they know that these doors must be taken advantage of
quickly, because they last but for a short season.

Through no deliberate intention of our own, this
dream is being posted exactly 572
days after it was emailed to us. The number "572" is equal to 52 times 11.
The number "11" speaks
of God's purifying judgments, and the number "52"
speaks of the death sacrifice of people who are forced to go through
(otherwise) unnecessary suffering on account of the stubborn negligence of
others. As we have said
before, the UK and Europe were forced to pay an
otherwise unnecessary spiritual price because of America's
turtle-like
negligence in
2005. Therefore, the number "572" speaks of how God's green-horse remnant
was forced to flee America, spiritually speaking, because she was an
unwelcoming host to God's green-horse visitation. His remnant has been
forced to go through renewed suffering that would have been unnecessary had
America reacted to God's call ("52"), and, because of this, a
dark cloud of
turban judgments ("11") looms in the horizon over the "American Coliseum"
that was not interested in knowing the "dark
side" of God's visitation.
"19My little
children, of whom I
travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
20I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice;
for I stand in doubt of
you." (Galatians
4:19-20)
[The phrase "stand in doubt" at the end of
verse 20 was translated from the Greek verb aporeo, which literally
means "to be without resources, not to know which way to turn, to be in
straits". In a prophetic sense, this points to the
"Detroit" straits that God's remnant was left in in America. When God
did His
preliminary visitation to America in human weakness, He found a
closed door and was
left as a young man who did not know where to turn.]

We felt the "pregnant urgency" to post this
dream today (September 13, 2006), because we understood that the "spiritual
door" for posting this word closed today. Had we posted it tomorrow
(September 14, 2006), it would have been
573 days after the
dream was emailed to us. The number "573" equals 191 times 3. Without
us realizing it until today, the Lord had us mention the number "191"
exactly 22 times in the prophetic word titled "Flight
358". The number "22"
speaks of the spiritual civil war decreed by God over America due to its
half-heartedness, and, as we saw when we studied "Flight
191", the number "191" speaks of "disaster" against those who refused to
move forward at God's prompting. Without us even recalling it, the Lord also had us briefly
mentioning the number "191" in the prophetic word "The
8 terrorists". From all of the above, we can say that the number "573"
(191 times 3) represents the
terror-causing disasters that God will
unleash against a half-hearted America that thought that God was OK with a
"2 out of
3" surrender (i.e.- a red-
and black-surrender, but not a
green-horse surrender).
Those who leave the "American Coliseum"
(and are represented by the number "572") will not face the number "573". Those who
stay behind will face the "573" disaster unleashed by God's civil-war decree against
America.

The word "Coliseum" (or "Colosseum") refers to
the ancient Coliseum in Rome.
According to wikipedia.org, the Colosseum's construction began in the year 72 A.D.
under the rule of Emperor Vesparian, and was completed in the year 80 A.D.
After the Colosseum's first 2 years of operation, Vesparian's younger son
ordered the construction of the "hypogeum", a series of underground tunnels
in the Colosseum that were used to house animals and slaves. According to
wikipedia.org, the word
"hypogeum" literally means "below the earth", which spiritually points to
"Sheol". This means that, on the Colosseum's 3rd year of operation, it was
necessary for the Colosseum to have a "Sheol". In the same way, those who
want to enter into the stage of the green horse (the 3rd horse starting from
the red horse) must be willing to accept a descent to Sheol in order to
complete their spiritual process in God. America was unwilling to accept the
green horse, and God shall judge her for it.

According to
wikipedia.org, the name "Colosseum" (or "Coliseum") is believed to have
been derived from the "colossus",
a 40-meter or 130-foot bronze statue of Nero that once stood near the
Colosseum's site. This giant statue was built by Nero in honor of himself.
Since Nero fell in "ill repute", Nero's successors changed the statue so
that it would no longer honor Nero but Apollo, the "sun god". Therefore, the
"colossus" speaks of the Nero-like "Korah"s who have been exposed before all
as "spiritually deluded" leaders
whose
minds are not operating in the righteous
judgments
of God. This happens as God unleashes His black-horse judgments against
them. Thus, those who stay in the "Coliseum" are those who choose to stick
with the Korah "colossus", even after he has been
beheaded by
black-horse David and exposed as a mere mortal with no true backing from
God above.
|
|
The number "52" mentioned above
also points to the "Pothole
52" that believers fall into when they follow Korah to the end.
|
|
The darkness left behind by sister Marcella as
she left the (L.A.) Coliseum is spiritually related to the "Latin
dark night" that the Lord had us write about in November 2005.

According to
wikipedia.org,
there is a famous theater in London known as the "Coliseum
Theatre", which opened in 1904, the year of the Welsh revival
that eventually hit America in 1906 (in the famous Azusa street revival of
California). There is a prophetic significance behind this. |
