Word received by: Wendy Borchers
During our worship
time, I had a vision of myself standing in front of the 4 Horses and their
riders. The White Horse was off to my left, a bit behind and to the side of the
others. The Red horse was out in front, standing right in front of me. The rider
took out a sword and pierced it through my heart, going deep, almost through my
back. The rider pulled out the sword. I saw my heart still attached to the tip
of the sword, beating and very red. My body fell to the floor, lifeless. But, a
"new" me stepped up behind the body of the old me. I was dressed in a long pure
white robe. The rider of the Red Horse took the sword and placed my heart back
inside this body. My white robe was pulled to and closed. Next, I saw my husband
standing next to me. The Black Horse and rider stepped forward. The rider took
out his sword and cut my husband (David) straight down the middle. His body fell
in 2 pieces, one to the right and one to the left. Again, a "new" David stepped up
right in front of the 2 pieces, but this time, my husband was clothed with a long
black hooded robe, one where his face could not be seen.
Our comments
The umbrella white horse
Sister Wendy saw the
white horse off to her left and a bit
behind the other horses. As we have said
before, the
"left" side is the side of the "invisible". Therefore, the white horse's
position is a figure of how it operates behind the curtains, in the unseen
background, with respect to the other horses. As we have shared
before,
the white horse acts as a spiritual "umbrella" that permeates the operations of
the other 3 horses. The white horse's operations are being carried out as each
of the other 3 horses gallops through.
The confrontational red horse
The red horse was "out
in front, standing right in front of" sister Wendy. This speaks of
the confrontational nature of God's red-horse riders, who are willing to act as
"contrarian salmon"
who defy the long-standing
traditions
and paradigms of man. Red-horse riders act as teacher-apostles
whose teachings expose the foundational falsehoods in the teachings of man,
enabling
believers to step away from under them.
The red-horse rider's
efforts are, in a sense, "violent" in nature, because he or she must "wrest"
believers' hearts away from the mental strongholds that have bound them, often
for years on end. This is the reason why the red-horse rider in the vision
pierced sister Wendy, literally pulling her heart out from inside her body. As
we have said
before,
red-horse riders are the spiritual "Michaels" who wrest
the body of Moses
away from satan.
As we have said
before,
the two ministries most directly related to the mind are the
teaching and
apostolic ministries. This means that red-horse riders, who are
teacher-apostles, come to question long-standing teachings and to create a
regeneration of the believer's mind so that he or she may be ready to take in
the teachings of God.
As we have said
before,
teachers are backward-looking by nature. This explains why the red-horse
sword went so far in that it almost
went through sister Wendy's back. Red-horse teacher-apostles force
fellow believers to look back and reexamine human traditions, even when they
have been accepted from a long time back. As believers
allow God to regenerate their minds, they go through a "mind renewal", which
correlates with "repentance". The Greek word for "repent" used in the New
Testament is metanoeo, which is derived from the words meta meaning "with,
according to, behind" and noeo meaning "to perceive with the
mind"; therefore, to "repent" is to "change one's mind by looking back to
examine the foundation principles behind our way of thinking and making
judgments. Thus, God's red horse fosters "repentance".
The lifeless body
that fell to the floor represents the covering of man. The red-horse rider
prompts
our hearts to break out from under
the covering of man so that we can be clothed in the
covering of God. This is the reason why sister Wendy reappeared with
a new body,
wearing a white robe, which speaks of a heart that longs to be
covered by
the eternal God, not by the
Girgashite-clay coverings
of man (2 Corinthians 5:1-11).
As we have said
before, "man" in Scripture is often a figure of the spirit, while "woman"
is a figure of the soul. Therefore, the fact that sister Wendy was
the one pierced by the red-horse rider speaks of the separating "sword
of pestilence" that cuts right through the soul of man, separating it
unto God by slicing through the barrier that prevents the soul from being one
with the Spirit. The red-horse sword cuts right through to the "heart of the
matter", dealing with root issues that are preventing God's paradigms
from being established.
"For the word of
God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing
even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,
and of the joints and marrow, and is a
discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." (Hebrews 4:12)
In the vision, sister
Wendy's heart was beating (i.e.-
alive) and very red while it was attached to the tip of the sword.
This speaks of an injection of "red"
life into the heart. As we said
above, the ministries most directly related to
the mind are the two "right-handed"
ministries of teacher and
apostle, and the mind is the
part
of the soul most directly to the color
red (the
emotions are "green", and the heart is "blue"); thus, teacher and apostle
impartations are "red" impartations. On the other hand, the ministry most directly related to "freedom"
and "life" is the
prophetic ministry. Therefore, we can say
that God's red-horse teacher-apostles
impart red teachings and
judgments
that come with a liberating prophetic anointing, violently slaying the judgments
of natural man and freeing the mind so that it can operate in the righteous
judgments and paradigms of God. As we have said
before, a "perfected
teacher" is a teacher who does not
oppose
the prophetic but who instead operates in it. In that sense, therefore,
red-horse believers are "perfected teachers". This also correlates with the
white robe that the "new" Wendy was dressed in, since the color
white is a
color of "perfection" or "completion".
The "strong redness"
of the heart also speaks of the "red
foundation" laid by God's red horse. God cannot edify on a heart that is
trapped in the old foundation, so He must break it away from the unrighteous and
lifeless foundations of man in order to build over His righteous and
life-enabling foundation.
What God did to
sister Wendy in the vision was a circumcision of the heart. Notice how
everything in the passage below correlates with sister Wendy's vision and all of
the above:
"6 As ye have therefore
received Christ Jesus the
Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted
and built up in him, and
stablished in the faith, as
ye have been
taught, abounding therein
with thanksgiving. 8 Beware
lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition
of men, after the rudiments
of the world, and
not after Christ. 9 For
in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
10 And
ye are complete in him,
which is the head of all principality and power: 11 In whom also ye
are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in
putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
12 Buried with him in
baptism, wherein also ye
are
risen with him through the faith of the operation of God,
who hath raised him from the dead." (Colossians 2:6-12)
[The
word "Christ" means "Anointed One". Therefore, verse 8 declares that the
traditions taught by man are not after the
anointing of Christ
in us (1 John 2:27-28). By contrast, God's red-horse teachings do not
oppose
the prophetic anointing.
Instead, they set a foundation (v7) that enables
it.
Based on verse 9, we can say
that God's red-horse "piercing" operation allows us to have a renewed
"body" that can contain the fullness of God. The
Old-Covenant
body is unable to contain His fullness, because it is
temporal (1
Chronicles 17:4-6). Therefore, it must be "put off" (v11) and replaced with
a New-Covenant
body.
The words "principality" and "power" at the end of
verse 10 were translated from the Greek words arche and exousia.
New-Covenant believers understand that they are complete in Him, because
He is the Head
of all principalities (arche)
and jurisdictional authorities (exousia).
New-Covenant believers do not need to be attached to human names, captive under human titles,
for our last name is derived from
our father God, not from the name of any human
institution. Cursed be those who try to brand
God's sheep with
their own last name.
The word "spoil" in verse 8 was translated from the
Greek word sulagogeo, which literally means "to carry one off as a
captive slave". The Church's human traditions are designed to bind man to
temporal things, preventing him from moving in the realm of the eternal.
The word "operation" in verse 12 was translated from the
Greek word energeia, from which the English word "energy" is derived;
energeia is derived from the word en, meaning "in", and ergo
meaning "work". As we have said
before,
"work" is most directly related to the teaching ministry, which is also related
to "methods"
and "procedures". Therefore, the Lord is saying that His teachings methodically
work inside of us in order to create a new vessel that can contain the glory of
God, a new vessel that is free from the enslaving teachings of carnal man. The
working of God's teachings in us is enabled by "faith"
(v12) in His
invisible methods. Those who have placed their faith in
visible methods are not being
renewed unto God.]
In the vision, sister Wendy's "white robe was
pulled to and closed". This speaks of the invisible nature of God's
"heart circumcisions". Only those who are listening in the Spirit shall discern
those circumcisions in themselves and in others.
The black horse of New-Covenant exploration
Whereas the red horse
ministered to sister Wendy, the black horse ministered to her husband David. As
we said above, "woman" is a figure of the soul, while "man" is a figure
of the spirit. Therefore, we can say that, while the red horse comes to
address foundational soul issues, the black horse comes to promote the
prospering of the new
spirit nature that God has placed in
the son of man.
In the vision,
the
black horse cut brother David's body in 2 pieces, with one half falling to the
right and the other half falling to the left. The half that fell to the right
represents the right-handed apostolic
ministry of truth
and judgments,
and the half that fell to the left represents the
left-handed
prophetic ministry of
grace and
intimacy.
As we have
said before, man has
tried to keep the apostolic and the prophetic apart, arguing that "New-Covenant
prophets" are not supposed to "judge". According to man's traditions, only
"Old-Covenant prophets" were allowed to judge.
However, those who use the phrase "Old-Covenant prophets" (or
"Old-Testament prophets") do not understand that such a phrase is a spiritual
oxymoron. By definition, a prophet is a person who can directly hear God's voice
and act as His mouthpiece on Earth:
"1 And
the LORD said unto Moses, See,
I have made thee a god to Pharaoh:
and
Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
2 Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and
Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh,
that he send the children of Israel out of his land." (Exodus 7:1-2)
"And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a
prophet among you,
I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision,
and
will speak unto
him in a dream" (Numbers 12:6)
[Notice how the Lord makes Himself known unto the prophet and speaks to
him or her. This speaks of a direct relationship with God, with no
intermediaries.]
"18 I
will raise them up a
Prophet from among their
brethren, like unto thee, and
will put my words in his mouth;
and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. 19 And it
shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which
he shall speak in my name,
I will require it of him." (Deuteronomy 18:18-19)
We, the Body of the
Anointed One (Christ),
are a prophetic people (Psalm 105:15), and, as shown by the passages above, we
must have a direct connection with God in order to operate in Christ's
prophetic
anointing. Even when a believer has fallen away from God's purposes, he or she
can temporarily reconnect with God to speak a word of prophecy, as was the case
with Saul and Balaam (1
Samuel 19:18-24,
Numbers 24:3-4);
in such cases, the prophetic gift becomes a "power plug" that taps directly into
the rhema flow
of God, even if it is only for a short time. However, that legitimate rhema
word can turn into a
snare for those who are only looking for power and not for truth (2
Thessalonians 2:11-12). If you hang around fallen Sauls and Balaams long
enough, the "power
plug" of their prophetic gift will suddenly connect to a
Hittite
spirit of deceit, and, without you realizing it, you will be made to fall with
them. Those who faithfully followed Saul, even after his fall (1 Samuel 15:26),
died with him in disgrace (1
Samuel 31:1-10), and those who listened to Balaam fell for his Moabite-women
snare (Numbers 25:1-3, Numbers 31:16, Revelation 2:14).
Thus, any
prophetic manifestation requires a direct connection with the Spirit of God. By
definition, the Old Covenant is one of
permanent
separation between God and man, a separation that is "bridged" by a
hierarchy of permanent intermediaries who can impart nothing more than temporal
blessings of a "religious"
nature, blessings that have
zero
eternal value (2 Corinthians 3:6, Jeremiah 31:31-34, Deuteronomy 5:23-27,
Numbers 14:31-35, Exodus 33:1-3). This means that it is
impossible to prophesy under the Old Covenant!!! There is no such
thing as an "Old Covenant prophet"; the phrase "Old Testament prophet" is
nonsensical (the word "testament" and "covenant" are equivalent in Greek). All
the prophets who wrote in what is traditionally known as the "Old Testament"
wrote under a New-Covenant anointing. They had access to the same type of
relationship with God that you and I have today. When David wrote so many of the
psalms, he did so in New-Covenant closeness with God. As shown by
1 Samuel 21
and by the "tabernacle
of David", David was a
Melchizedek priest in the midst of "Aaronic-priesthood" days, and so were
the prophets of the "Old Testament". Can anyone in his right (spiritual) mind
say that Ezekiel saw the visions of God's Glory without having a direct
New-Covenant relationship with God? Can anyone in his right mind say that
Habakkuk did not have a heavy prophetic-intercession anointing in him and over
him when he wrote his prophetic book, and can any spiritually sane believer say
that Habakkuk's intercession anointing did not surpass the anointing of most of today's "prophetic intercessors"? Can
anyone in his right mind say that Isaiah did not live a life of New-Covenant
closeness with God, even when he wrote about the Messiah in a prophetic detail
that most modern-day "prophets" have yet to visualize and comprehend?
The
difference between the "Old Testament" days and now is that, in the "old" days,
the New Covenant was not readily accessible to the people of Israel as
a whole. It was available to anyone who sought after it, but the search was long
and difficult. By contrast, a New-Covenant relationship with God is now
readily accessible to the people of God as a whole. In a sense, it is now
"more difficult" to miss the New Covenant than it is to find it, whereas,
in the "old" days, it was "more difficult" to find the New Covenant than
it was to miss it. In the "old" days, the New Covenant would be discovered by a
few isolated individuals here and there who would break away from the
Old-Covenant crowd. Nowadays, the New Covenant is available to all the people,
and you must make a conscious and deliberate effort to run away from the
New Covenant. Ironically enough, this is exactly what most in the Church have
ended up doing.
"31 Behold,
the days come, saith the LORD, that
I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel,
and with the house of Judah: 32 Not according to the covenant that I
made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them
out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an
husband unto them, saith the LORD: 33 But this shall be the covenant
that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I
will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be
their God, and
they shall be my people.
34 And
they shall teach no more
every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for
they shall all know me,
from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will
forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." (Jeremiah 31:31-34)
[Notice that the Lord speaks of the "new covenant" in a "plural" context, the
context of the people of Israel and Judah as a whole]
Thus, the phrase
"Old-Testament prophet" is as contradictory as saying, "Sinful righteousness" or
"Public secrecy". It is a spiritual oxymoron, and it takes an "endowment"
of "spiritual
moronism" to accept it and preach it. As we have said before, a "spiritual
moron" is a person who has deliberately chosen not to grow spiritually and who
is comfortable leaving difficult spiritual "mysteries" under the rug of
simplicity. Such is any
person who boldly proclaims, "A New-Testament
prophet must not judge; judging is for 'Old-Testament prophets' only".
The entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is a book written by believers
with a New-Covenant relationship with God. In that sense, therefore, the term
"Old Testament" can be misleading, and the "spiritual
morons" who hate God's
growth-yielding judgments are more than
happy to be misled
by it.
Therefore, when the
black-horse rider in the vision split brother David in 2 pieces, it was a figure
of God declaring the futility of separating His
apostolic judgments from His prophetic
grace. When these two spiritual elements are separated by man and
artificially reunited, they
become lifeless pieces that drop to the floor and perish. Both the apostolic and
the prophetic are manifestations of one of
the 7
Spirits of God each. The apostolic ministry is a manifestation of
the
Spirit of Ephesus, and the prophetic ministry is a manifestation of
the
Spirit of Smyrna. Even though the Spirits of God are 7, they operate in the
seamless unity of One Spirit, because God is One (Deuteronomy 6:4). Therefore,
the apostolic and the prophetic are seamlessly compatible and integrated when
they are allowed to operate in God. When man fashions these ministries according
to his own understanding and interests, they become spiritually incompatible and
contradictory. They are like two halves of a broken vase that are kept together
with masking tape; they may seem to be "together", but they are not truly one.
Once you remove the
external adhesion forces (the masking tape), they fall one
to each side, because their adhesion is not internal. When we operate in the
Spirit of God, the apostolic ministry of judgments and the prophetic ministry of
grace are intrinsically joined; when we operate in the former Adam, they are
extrinsically joined, at best.
The Church's
artificial separation of the "apostolic" and the "prophetic" is equivalent to
her artificial separation of the "Old Testament" and the "New Testament". The
Church has been able to deceive herself into thinking that the "judgmental" God
of the "Old Testament" is completely foreign to the "merciful" God of the
"New Testament", as if
the God of
Israel (who is One) were a
schizophrenic
loon. As I was writing the previous sentence, the word "loon" suddenly burst
forth in my spirit, but I was hesitant to use it. However, the Lord insisted
that I do. I then felt the prompting to look up the formal meaning of the word.
In America and Canada, the word "loon" literally refers to a fish-catching bird
that is known in the UK as a "diver", due to its habit of diving in mid-flight
into the water to catch fish. According to
www.tomifobia.com, the origin of the word "loon" is unknown; some, however,
believe that it comes from the Old Norse and Icelandic word "lomr", which
was used to refer to an awkward person; this would make sense, since loons are
very awkward when walking on land, an awkwardness caused by legs that are very
far up into their bodies and very far behind. This awkwardness contrasts with
the loon's proficiency in the water. Awkwardness is equivalent to
"gracelessness". Thus, the loon is an animal that represents a "schizophrenic"
nature; it is "dysfunctionally graceless" on land, and it is "smoothly graceful"
in the water. Carnal man has fashioned a "loony God", a "God" who was
repulsively graceless on the dry land of the "Old Testament", but who suddenly
became pleasantly graceful in the waters of the "New Testament". It is no
spiritual coincidence, therefore, that the word "loon" is also
informally used in English to refer to a demented or "lunatic" person. It
requires spiritual madness to turn God into a schizophrenic "loon" who would
"gracelessly" prompt Samuel to chop Agag into a million little pieces and would
prompt Joshua to slaughter women and children in Jericho, but who would then
turn around to act as a "graceful" and compassionate "santa claus" who never
wants His children to "judge" and who wants His children to simply delight in a
life of unending "grace" and earthly "blessings". Anyone who rejects God's
judgments will go spiritually
insane, and it requires spiritual insanity to
believe in a schizophrenic "loony God" who is pathetically graceless in the "Old
Testament" and over-compensatingly graceful in the "New Testament". Cursed be
those who are bent on making God out to be a loon.
"And therefore
will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be
exalted, that he may have mercy upon you:
for the LORD is a God of judgment:
blessed are all they that wait for him" (Isaiah 30:18)
[Notice how "schizophrenic" this verse appears to be, for it speaks of a
"gracious" God who has "mercy" precisely because He is a "God of judgment".
Here, the Lord is declaring that He waits for His judgments to do their work in
you. Once that cleansing judgment has been performed on you, you are ready to
receive an impartation of His grace (Romans
5:21). He must wait for you to exalt Him, and,
once that happens, He is "legally" in the freedom to pour His abundant mercy
upon you. You exalt Him as you
exalt those who make judgments in Him, for what you to do to His "little
ones", you do unto
Him.]
Therefore, when the
black-horse rider's sword was able to cut brother David's body in 2 pieces, it
was a figure of how the "apostolic" and the "prophetic" appear to be together
and well integrated in the Church but are actually two intrinsically different pieces
that are being kept together in
the natural realm of the divisible. The sword of
God does not divide the eternal, for the Eternal One shall in no wise divide
Himself.
The splitting of
brother David's body also points to the rending of the temple veil:
"And, behold, the
veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth
did quake, and the rocks rent" (Matthew 27:51)
Man has tried to
separate God into an "Old Testament God" and a "New Testament God", and that
separation perpetuates the separation between "ministers" and "laymen", which in
turn perpetuates the separation between God and man.
As a believer comes to
understand that the God of
apostolic judgments is Intrinsically One with the God
of prophetic grace, he or she is free to approach God and become One with Him,
for only those who abide in His judgments shall be made fully compatible with
His righteous, holy,
and strong Nature, and only the compatible
shall be allowed into Him for eternity.
"3 Who
shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up
his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. 5 He shall receive the
blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. 6 This
is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah." (Psalm 24:3-6)
"13 Hear,
ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my
might. 14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised
the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us
shall dwell with everlasting burnings? 15 He that walketh righteously,
and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh
his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood,
and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; 16 He shall dwell on high: his
place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his
waters shall be sure. 17 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty:
they shall behold the land that is very far off." (Isaiah 33:13-17)
The priest-hood
In the vision,
brother David appeared clothed with a "long black hooded robe, one where
his face could not be seen". This speaks of the
anonymous nature of
God's black-horse "bow"
operations. As you are trained up by God in the "black"
anonymity of the black-horse wilderness, you begin to
exercise your Melchizedek priesthood, and you begin to execute spiritual
operations in the heavenly realm. The black-horse wilderness is the place where
you begin to abound in ministerial grace as you grow in your direct relationship
with God, free from the ministerial dependence you left behind
in
the red-horse stage of your spiritual growth. In that sense, the black-horse
wilderness is equivalent to the "Holy place" in the Temple. There, the priests
would minister "indoors", outside the public view. The red-horse stage of
temporal dependence is equivalent to the "courtyard", where another priest
makes
a sacrifice for you, and the green-horse stage of
Golgotha
sacrifice is equivalent to the "Holy of holies", where
you yourself are the
sacrifice.
The fact that the
robe was long points to the following psalm of David:
"1 Behold,
how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! 2 It
is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even
Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; 3 As the
dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for
there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore." (Psalm 133)
In this context,
Aaron represents "priesthood", since the literal descendants of Aaron were called to act
as priests. Therefore, the Lord is saying that the
anointing
to minister as priests runs down from the Head (Christ) to cover the entire
Body. When you move out to the black-horse wilderness, you are recognizing that
we are all priests, and you are beginning to operate in the New Covenant. In
that sense, the black-horse wilderness is a transition stage from an
Old-Covenant to a
New-Covenant understanding. You begin to realize that the
ministerial robe is long, running all the way down to cover the entire Body of
Christ, not just an elitist caste near the "top" of the Body. We have all been
baptized into One Body, and God is One. No part of the Body of Christ has been
condemned a priori to bear the shame of public nakedness.
"12 For
as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body,
being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit are
we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be
bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit." (1 Corinthians 12:12-13)
The struggle to turn Peter green
According to a
names-meaning website and
wikipedia.org, some
believe that the name "Wendy" was first used in the 1904 play "Peter Pan"
by Scottish novelist J.M. Barrie (James Matthew), who derived it from the
nickname fwendy ("friend") given to him by the 4-year-old daughter of
poet William Henley (a friend of Barrie's). However, it seems as if the name
"Wendy" was already in use in the US and the UK before then, though used very
rarely. It seems to be an English version of the Welsh name "Gwendolen", which
according to a
names-meaning website, means "white ring". Whether the name "Wendy" was
invented by Barrie or not, it is undeniable that his play "Peter Pan"
popularized it.
The fact that the name
"Wendy" is related to the Welsh name "Gwendolen", meaning
"white ring", correlates with the white robe given to sister Wendy after
her red-horse impartation. The name "David" means "beloved", and it points to
the cloud of grace
from God that begins to hover over those who are willing to go out into the
lonely black-horse wilderness of temporal
scarcity. What
drew my attention, however, was the fact that there seemed to be no direct
reference to the green horse in sister Wendy's vision. Yet, as the Lord had us
meditating on the name "Wendy", it became evident that the green horse is
represented in the vision, but in a subtle way.
As the Lord had us
reading about the name "Wendy", it became evident that there was a strong
spiritual connection between this name and two dreams, the "meadow
house" dream that we posted 27 days ago (on September 20, 2006), and the
"stowaway" dream posted 51 days ago (on August 27, 2006) as shown below:
|
The initials J.M.
in the name "J.M. Barrie" stand for James Matthew,
and Matthew "happens to be" the name of the young child "stowed away" in the
meadow house dream.
|
|
J.M. Barrie was
Scottish. In the "meadow house" dream, the Lord had us mention the word
"Scotland" 5 times, the word "Scottish" once, and the name "Scott" once,
for a total of 7 references; in that dream, we
mentioned Scotland in the context of
meadows.
In the "stowaway" dream, the Lord had us mention the word "Scottish" twice,
the word "Scotland" twice, and the word "Scots" 3 times, for a total of 7
references, again; in that dream, we mentioned Scotland in the context of a
"red-crossed outfit"
worn by a red-bearded man in the dream.

As we said above, the play that popularized the
name "Wendy" is called "Peter Pan". In the "stowaway" dream, the word
"Peter" appears 20 times, and it is mentioned in the context of a "Peter"
(the apostle) who, like Peter Pan, was refusing to grow into a new,
green-horse level of
spiritual understanding. It is also mentioned in the context of "Peter
Lisle", a Scottish pirate who represents the "Yusuf"
torment incurred by those who refuse to grow into the green-horse stage of
their spiritual walk. Therefore, it is no coincidence that the name "Peter"
appears 20 times in that dream, since the number "20"
speaks of
the
rise of a green-horse army of young warriors, of spiritual buccaneers
with
no reverence for man's "sacred cows".
In the "meadow
house" dream, the Lord had us mention the name "Peter" (twice) in the
context of Nottingham, George Green, and the delay
in some people's ability to discern the green potential
of others. This delay is spiritually related to the unwillingness to
rise up as a green-horse army to clean up the
cadavers from God's house. If you are too dazzled by the "greatness" of
human "ministers" (even as they lie as spiritual cadavers), you will be
unable to discern the hidden potential "in
the sea", and you will be
negligent
when God assigns you the task of enabling that potential.
Notice that both dreams mention the name "Peter"
a total of 22 (20+2) times. As we have said
before, the number "22" speaks of the spiritual civil war declared over
America because of her spiritual negligence and
delay. When it came
time to
enable the manifestation of God's green-horse remnant, she backed down out
of
cautious fear, for which she shall be harshly judged until
May 2009.
If you exclude the passages of
Scripture quoted in the "stowaway" dream, the word "Peter" appears
13 times.
This is no spiritual coincidence, for it points to
the 13 times that God will go around the American "Jericho" before He
blasts her arrogant walls to the ground. The walls which kept His
shekinah presence
out of America
shall not stand for long. The American Peter's reluctance to grow into "his
green calling" shall be toppled through judgment by the Lord.

According to
wikipedia.org, J.M.
Barrie was a journalist in Nottingham early in his career.
Coincidentally, the Lord had us mention either the words "Nottingham" or
"Nottinghamshire" a total of 20 times in the "meadow
house" dream.

The "Peter Pan" story includes a character named
"Captain Hook", who was the captain of the pirate ship "Jolly Roger".
"Coincidentally", the Lord had us speaking about "pirates", "corsairs", and
"buccaneers" throughout the "stowaway"
dream (the words "pirate", "pirates", "corsair", "corsairs", "buccaneer" and
"buccaneers" appear a total of 18 times in that dream).
As man decides to
resist growing from his black-horse stage to his green-horse stage, he
exposes himself to the chaotic attacks of "Yusuf"
pirates. If you are
sitting at
black-horse "19" and refuse to enter into green-horse "20", you will
regress to
"18", where you will suffer chaotic attacks resulting in "senseless
carnage":
"1 There were
present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood
Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answering
said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the
Galilaeans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, Nay:
but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. 4 Or
those eighteen,
upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were
sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, Nay:
but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke
13:1-5)
The name of Captain Hook's ship, the "Jolly
Roger", points to the fictional character "Buck Rogers" who, as we have
shared
before, represents the green-horse believers who battle against the
Charlemagne spirit of "ministerial greatness".

When he was 6, J.M. Barrie had a 13-year old
brother named David who passed away. This correlates with the "death" of
brother David at the hands of the black-horse rider in sister Wendy's
vision. The age "13" points to the number "13" mentioned above.
Therefore, the death of David Barrie at age 13 points to the fall of
America's resistance to God's green-horse calling, which shall fall just as
David's 2 halves fell to the ground in
the vision. In a more general sense, the death of David Barrie points to the
fall of human resistance against God's green-horse visitation. As the David
"Barriers" fall, the
black-
and
green-horse Davids can be allowed to emerge.

As we have mentioned
before, a close
study of the New Testament book of James reveals that it is a letter that
strongly targets the
Girgashite
(and Amorite)
spirit. Because of its
focus on the
visible, the Girgashite spirit is the one most directly related to
"Thomas-like" skepticism and doubt. Therefore, it is not a spiritual
coincidence that the "J." in "J.M. Barrie" stands for "James". America's
Thomas-like
skepticism towards God's
fractal green-horse nature led to America not growing into her
green-horse calling.
|
|
Because of America's "anti-fractal" skepticism,
she has been sentenced to a
4-year
delay. This explains why the young girl who gave J.M. Barrie his "fwendy"
nickname was 4-years old, since the name "Wendy" points to God's "Yusuf"
judgments against those who choose to stay at the black-horse stage without
making the transition into the green-horse stage. |
From all of the above, it becomes evident that
brother David's fall into "2 pieces" also points to the tearing down of the
spiritual walls that are preventing the American Church (and America as a
nation) from crossing the river Jordan and entering into the fullness of her
green-horse calling. Like the apostle Peter when placed before the sea at
Jaffa, the
"Peter-Pan" American
Church is reluctant to accept God's green-horse nature. However, her resistance shall
be stricken down, and God's glory shall be seen. In the meantime, the Lord will
continue His mighty work in the UK and Europe.
