This came to me in a dream and is called Cast-A-Net and is reflective of the book of Isaiah chapter 11.
In verse 1 it prophesies the return of the Messiah "A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit." We are to be assisted by the seven spirits of God in the construction of Holy Spirit spoken of in Isaiah 11:2 and 3.
1) the Spirit of wisdom
2) the Spirit of understanding
3) the Spirit of counsel
4) the Spirit of power
5) the Spirit of knowledge
6) the Spirit of the fear of the Lord
7) the Spirit of delight in the fear of the Lord.
In verse 10 "In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his resting place will be glorious. 11 In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the surviving remnant of his people...".
It came to me at 3 a.m. I was sound asleep and dreaming of casting nets over goldfish and awoke to the knowledge that this was to be my next work.
The next morning a search of the scriptures for the casting of nets netted me around 35 verses but not one of them pertained to the dream I had.
It seemed relevant that the goldfish is in regard to the strategic harvest and subsequent protection of His children and disciples. Psalms 91:1 says "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. 3 Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence..."
Folks its time for His disciples to cast the nets of Evangelism. The usual casting net is a circular net with small weights about its edges and to sink by design as it spreads out on the water. You are warned to uphold the nets you cast and to keep them afloat by the seven Castanets marked by Gods spirit.
Castanets? Yes! A simple and common musical instrument that has been found on every continent for a recorded 2500 years and more but a little more vaguely. In 2 Samuel 6:5 says "David and the entire assembly of Israel were dancing in the presence of the LORD with all of their strength, accompanied by all sorts of wood instruments, harps, tambourines, castanets, and cymbals. " Make a joyful noise! With the help of the Holy Spirit share the love of Jesus with wisdom, understanding, counsel, power, knowledge, fear of the Lord and with the delight in the fear of the Lord.
Be loud and proud as in Psalms 98:1. "Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him. 2 The Lord has made his salvation known and revealed his righteousness to the nations.3 He has remembered his love and his faithfulness to Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. 4 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music; 5 make music to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and the sound of singing, 6 with trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn— shout for joy before the Lord, the King. 7 Let the sea resound, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. 8 Let the rivers clap their hands, let the mountains sing together for joy; 9 let them sing before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples with equity."
In a nutshell, the Return of Jesus is imminent! Commit your ways unto the Lord and make a joyful sound! He's got this and you! And Flamenco music?! Be Passionate! Be Alive!
By the way, it seems seaweed most commonly inhabits the part of the sea that is close to shore and thrives in the rockiest areas? True story. It kind of dies out in calm waters where the walking is easy. It just needs the son...
