Angels on Assignment – Removing Last Season's Baggage
As we continue to see the Lord strategically aligning us in our assignments and relationships throughout the fall, October will be a month of seeing the weight and baggage we have been carrying with us from the previous season being removed from us.
The Lord has assigned angels to serve many in the Body of Christ who are ready to move into the new. You have carried some things with you that you have not wanted to let go of, which cannot move with you into your new season. There are also things you have brought with you that you have not been able to get free from that have kept you bound. It is vital that you do not try to free yourself by your own effort; it will only lead to frustration. As you rest in the presence of the Lord, He will remove every weight and sin that has been trying to entangle you, allowing you to run the race set before you.
The Banquet and the Butlers
"You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." (Psalm 23:5-6)
In a dream I had on September 29, 2023, I found myself at a banquet. Many people were in the room with me, ready for a ceremonial event. The room was very large, elaborate and beautifully decorated, and there were many large tables throughout it. The event took place on a Sunday, and the organizer told us we would not be allowed to do any work during the event. They also announced that the servers would not be serving out of obligation, but out of their desire to serve those attending the banquet.
The servers were butlers dressed in the most formal attire, and a large feast had been prepared for us. There was a tangible excitement in the room for what lay ahead.
The Ceremony Before the Feast
We were asked to take our seats and told to "strap in." I noticed I had a seatbelt similar to the ones on an airplane. I placed it around my waist and strapped myself in.
The ceremony was about to begin, and the organizer instructed us to stay strapped in our seats. We were told that the feast was ready and that our meals were about to be brought to our tables, but that our luggage needed to be removed before we could eat. (Photo via Wikimedia Commons)
As I scanned the room, I noticed the luggage the people had brought with them. Some had huge suitcases, while others had hand luggage and large backpacks. All the luggage needed to be removed both big and small. I saw the butlers beginning to move quickly through the room. They were kind to the guests, who remained seated in their seats, as they began removing the baggage the guests had brought in with them.
The butlers were on task and effective in executing their assignment, and I realized that the baggage removal was the 'ceremony' before the feast. I then woke up from the dream.
October – A Month of Resting in the Lord
October will be a month of resting in the Lord. Stay seated and lock in to His presence; refrain from works. The Lord has prepared a table for you in the presence of your enemies. He will go before you and will cause your cup to overflow.
The Lord will treat this as a ceremony, celebrating this event because it will bring you great freedom and joy. It will allow you to move forward, without hindrance, into the abundant blessings you will feast on in the days ahead.
I bless you in the mighty name of Jesus!
