A few months ago I had a short, strange, but powerful dream, and have been seeking the Lord for His wisdom. In the dream, I was standing on the highest mountain peak in a range of other peaks. As far as I could see, in every direction, there were mountain peaks. All of them were gray and barren of any trees, indicating how high they were. I was wearing a white garment, and on the front was a banner made of royal blue with gold letters that stated, "On a mission to deliver TZP."
I woke up and pondered this very strange dream, seeking the Lord for revelation. The biggest mystery was the meaning of "TZP."
What Is TZP?
I went to the internet and googled "TZP" and "Bible" together. I was amazed to find that there is a company named TZP. It's name is based on the account in Genesis, where Joseph interpreted Pharaoh's dreams and (with God's wisdom) suggested a plan to sustain the people in the forthcoming time of famine.
Pharaoh recognized that the Spirit of God was in Joseph, and that He was the one who gave Joseph wisdom and discernment. Because of this, Pharaoh gave Joseph authority to rule and implement his God-given strategy (Genesis 41:38–44). As part of Joseph's new rank, Pharaoh gave him an Egyptian name, TZofenat Paneach, or "Tsaphenath Paneach" (see Strong's Concordance 6847).
There are differing interpretations on what the name means, but there are similarities among a few. Gesenius' Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon states that the Hebrew interpretation is "revealer of secrets." Flavius Josephus (A.D. 37–110), a first century Jewish priest, scholar, and historian said that it meant "a finder of mysteries." The Coptic Christians (the first Egyptian Christians) believed that it meant "the man to whom secrets are revealed." They originated in the city of Alexandria, one of the most faithful and fruitful cities during the apostolic period. John Mark (writer of the Gospel of Mark) was their founder and first bishop in A.D. 42–62.
I sensed by the Holy Spirit that God is raising up those to whom He will reveal His secrets for the furtherance of His plans, just as He did with Joseph and Daniel! Praise His holy name!
He Reveals the Deep and Hidden Things
I immediately thought of Daniel 2:22: "He reveals the deep and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with Him"; and Amos 3:7, "Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His servants the prophets."
Daniel and Joseph were both raised up and used by God during a time of captivity to make Him known to the kings through the interpretation of troubling dreams, which only He knew the meaning of. Daniel was also given wisdom from God to tell King Nebuchadnezzar the actual dream he had received, not just the interpretation. Just as it was with Pharaoh and Joseph, King Nebuchadnezzar gave glory to God and raised up Daniel to the highest place of authority, second only to him! (Photo via Unsplash)
Consider the times they lived in and compare them to ours. There will be a great need in the nations, with many situations where God's wisdom and divine strategies will be needed. God will raise up many before leaders—revealers of secret things that only He could possibly know—bringing deliverance and salvation to many, just as He did with Joseph in Egypt.
"A man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men." (Proverbs 18:16)
Dream Symbolism and Interpretation
The symbolism in the dream is spiritually significant. It also indicates the qualities of those whom God is raising up.
Dream symbolism:
• The highest mountain peak in a range of many symbolizes ascending the heights and divine encounters and revelation. Mountains also represent strength, stability, and permanence.
• The gray (mountains) symbolizes dignity, honor, age, and wisdom.
• The white garment symbolizes purity, righteousness, holiness, and wisdom; dedication to God.
• The blue banner symbolizes Heaven, royalty, authority, revelation, purity, and dedication to God.
• The gold lettering symbolizes Kingdom glory, purity, fire, faithfulness, and holiness.
• The woman (me) symbolizes the Bride of Christ, the Ecclesia (Church).
God Is Raising up Revealers of Secrets
There is clearly a theme! God is raising up revealers of secrets, mysteries, and hidden things. They will be those whose lives are marked by a dedication to God and His Kingdom, who have been through the fires of purification. They will recognize the holiness of God and be compelled to only bring forth truth and be faithful to what the Lord has revealed, not adding anything or having their own agenda.
"Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.
"Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell." (Matthew 10:26–28)
I heard the Lord say, "I am raising up those who will release My pure wisdom, with no fleshly or soulish inclinations, or personal intimations, only My truth that resounds with eternal vibration.
"I am ordaining those from every nation that stand steadfast on My firm foundation. For what I reveal will cause leaders to kneel. Of My wisdom they will be aware, and the glory of My name they will declare."
Preparation and Equipping
We are in a season of war, and intense purification will continue. Even as we see lies exposed in the world, God will continue preparing and equipping, to an even greater degree, those whom He has ordained for His purposes in the advancement of His Kingdom. God will give new assignments, mantles, gifts, and anointings to those who have been found faithful during times of adversity, testing, and trials. (Photo via Pxfuel)
One way to stay strong is to continue believing what God has shown you through His Word, but also through dreams and visions. God had given Joseph two significant dreams about his future. I believe Joseph held onto the dreams that God had given him, and this helped sustain him through the trials.
The Word of God and the dreams and visions He has given me have kept me moving forward, because I know that they are realities which have not yet manifested. I believe that many are in this place, who have stood upon Habakkuk 2:3: "For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry."
Promotion for His Purposes
The Lord says, "Even as you were tested and tried, you have not forgotten I am on your side; on My goodness, grace, and mercy you have believed and relied."
Both Joseph and Daniel were faithful, and they received favor and promotion. Stay faithful and watch God give you favor and promote you! He engineers circumstances to bring about His purposes; trust Him!
The Lord says, "Many have been in a season of being hidden; I say, now watch and see as the concealed are revealed and the hidden are bidden. I am calling you to come up higher and of Me inquire. For I know the end from the beginning; I know what must take place for the winning. Come up higher, above the fray, where the enemy scatters and brings disarray. I am raising revealers who have willingly laid it all down, their hearts' desire to give Me renown. I say now you are moving from invisible to invincible. I send forth My angelic host to perform what is revealed by the Holy Ghost."
"Even as I raised up Joseph and Daniel to reveal secret things to kings, in these days—to you—My wisdom I will bring. I will commission for My mission to bring all things into submission. You will see those in obscurity raised up overnight, for I will release to them My wisdom and bring secrets to the light. I am raising up dreamers to confound the schemers. I will bring dreams that disturb and need interpretation. My revealers will be raised to elevated stations and reveal strategies to leaders of many nations that will shock and amaze; for they will find that I am the Ancient of Days, and give Me all glory, honor, and praise."
"There's a private place reserved for the devoted lovers of YAHWEH, where they sit near Him and receive the revelation-secrets of His promises." (Psalm 25:14 TPT)
