Go forth and recover all in 2016!

About 6 am this morning, 12/15/2015, I had a very challenging dream that I am convinced was God's answer to me concerning 2016.

Just to backtrack a little. I was compelled to engage in a fast that lasted for almost two weeks and ended just last Friday. During this fast, there were many things I was seeking God for and many unanswered questions in terms of certain losses in my life. Well, as a result of my dream this morning, I am convinced that not only did God answer me, but I am convinced the message given to me in my dream is for all that would take head and begin to put in action the instructions of the dream.

In my dream this morning, I was standing in a church, specifically near a pulpit observing a gentleman accompanied by two ladies standing at his immediate left. This gentleman was preaching, but for some reason, he seemed as if there was something invisible preventing him from preaching. In fact, it seemed as if the words he was speaking did not make sense. As I began to look out at the congregation, there were only three old ladies who seemed to be no less than 65 years old sitting at the very last bench at the back of the church. However, they were looking at each other in complete amazement as to what was this man saying or talking about. In fact, it didn't even seem to be the English language he was speaking. The more I observed this gentleman, the more he looked frustrated with the three ladies present in the church.

Suddenly, I was given a signal, but I don't recall by whom that I would be up next to preach. Within seconds, the gentleman who was preaching and the ladies who accompanied him vanished with no trace of them even being there. Immediately, a young man walked up to me (someone that is a known enemy to me in reality) and passed me the Mic. This person held his head down while walking towards me and even after handing me the Mic.

Instantly, when I received the Mic, the church mushroomed into what appeared to be a stadium filled to capacity with hundreds of thousands of people. The people were anxious and literally cheering me on to release a word from the Lord to them. I began to pace the pulpit floor, wondering what I would say to the people. For some strange reason, I could not come up with anything. The crowd then became agitated because they were desperate for a word from the Lord.

As I retreated to the pulpit with one hand holding on to the pulpit, I then took about two to three steps back from the pulpit, and it was as if everything around me disappeared and there was complete silence. At that moment, I said to myself, "Lord, I need a word from you for the people." It was at that moment when I made this request in actuality, talking to myself, I heard an internal voice that spoke to me as clear as day. The voice said to me, "Tell my people to go forth and recover all." Immediately, I was returned back to the pulpit with the resuming of the crowd's noise, again, impatiently waiting on a word from the Lord. I then walked down from the pulpit, being totally overwhelmed by the word of the Lord for the people.

I gripped the Mic with tremendous pressure as I got to the floor just below the platform. I shouted with a loud voice while looking up in the stands observing literally hundreds of thousands of people saying to the crowd, "The word of the Lord for his people is, GO FORTH AND RECOVER ALL." At this point, the crown began to jump up and down and moved about in great excitement and encouragement. I have never seen anything like that in all my life. The crowd started to shout and literally roar, all because of the word of the Lord. In all honesty, I became so excited in the dream and felt as if the word of the Lord was an all-go sign for all that would believe his words.

The following is my interpretation of my dream. Firstly, the gentleman I saw was symbolic of preachers whose time has expired but still trying to hold on to a place that has rejected them. The old ladies in the church who were the only folks in the congregation symbolized the older folks that attend church only as a tradition but have become entirely despondent by the same old tired non anointed message. The empty church implies the lack of interest for the church by all walks of life simply because of the "out of touch" leaders who have become irrelevant and spiritually deaf to the voice of the Holy Spirit and refuse to step aside for God's new wave of leadership that will actually obey his voice. The two ladies that stood at the preacher's left are symbols of evil spirits, namely Jezebel spirits that have controlled such leaders and, as a result, influenced these same leaders to become obsessed with controlling their membership to the point folks just had enough and left. Thus leaving these controlling leaders all by themselves and only with a handful of folks who are more committed to the tradition of attending church as opposed to truly hearing the word of the Lord.

I mentioned that I was given a signal in my dream to be up next to preach, but I did not recall who gave me the indication. In any event, the person who passed me the Mic is an enemy in reality. This section of the dream brought the following scripture to mind, "When a man's ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies be at peace with him. In other words, this transition that God is about to do with the replacing of leadership even your haters and oppressors will have no choice but to fall in line to the will of God as his new set of leaders is about to mount the stage of life.

I also mentioned that when the Mic was passed to me, the church mushroomed from 3 old ladies in the congregation to what appeared to be a stadium filled with literally hundreds of thousands of people in great expectation of a word from the Lord. Scripture says the following regarding this portion of the dream, "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God" Romans 8:19. In other words, a particular anointing comes along with this new breed of leaders, whose anointing will place a demand on folks that once had no interest in church and the things of God to return to their first love. Only this time, it will not be about worshiping a leader or everything surrounding the leader of a congregation. Instead, the expectation will be on the word of God that will be released from the man or woman of God!

Amazingly in this dream, I could not come up with anything to say or preach to this massive crowd. If you can recall, I mentioned that at one point, I stood at the pulpit, took a few steps back, and ended up in this isolated space where everything vanished around me, and it was also at this point I said to myself, "Lord I need a word for your people." I am convinced that this new breed of leadership must entirely depend on God and abolish their own agendas. As you would have observed, it was only when I gave up on my own way of trying to come up with something and internally asked God for a word for the people that a word from the Lord was given to me!

The words released to me became the most crucial part of the dream to me. As a reminder, when I released these words to this word-hungry crowd, they literally became overwhelmed with excitement and joy. Nevertheless, it was the interpretation of what those words meant that now speaks to the entirety of the coming year 2016.

I believe, based on the words given by the Lord, that we as people of God have been given the green light to go forward and recover everything that was either taken from us, deprived of, or what we've lost in the past. In any event, the word recover implies getting back or regaining something that was either taken away or lost. It also means that whatever it is that God is asking us to recover, initially, he had set aside just for us. In addition to this, I am also convinced that if God is asking us to go forth and recover all, it would suggest that he has removed all barriers, partitions, impediments, and whatever else that prevented us from recovering whatever it was that we failed at recovering before.

I believe that this command from God and our obedience to this command will require boldness along with a fearless spirit that will cause us to strategically invade the enemy's camp. However, this fearlessness and boldness will be automatic for us if our confidence is cemented in the word of God. In other words, the word of the Lord, "Go forth and recover all," should be our confidence that everything is in place for us to recover all.

The bottom line is this! Whatever you have lost, whatever was stolen from you, whatever you've failed at, go back and attempt it again because this time is your set time to recover all! If you had issues in conceiving, go and try again. Have you lost your home or property to foreclosure? Get ready for total recovery? Were you deprived of your promotion? Get ready to recover all. Families, marriages, businesses, beginning now and the entirety of 2016, will be a year of recovery for those that believe the word of the Lord and act upon his word. You will not recover pieces; instead, as the Lord has commanded, YOU SHALL RECOVER ALL!

In closing, I would like to make unequivocally clear in regards to my dream, and that is, the new breed of leaders was always here. Instead, they were oppressed by the current insecure, controlling leaders who refused to step down and pass on the baton to the next generation. As a result, they have clogged the pipes of progress and enslaved the people with traditions that have made the word of God of non-affect. However, the time is quickly approaching where God is about to sit them down permanently only to usher in his new team that will lead us up to the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Please read 1 Samuel 30 for a greater understanding of the results of going forth and recovering all. Also, I would strongly advise you to make a list with a title that says, "Go forth and recover all." List everything that you have lost and that was stolen from you. Now prepare to make a mark check to each lost as recoverd as you walk in faith according to the command of the Lord!

"GO FORTH AND RECOVER ALL" in 2016!
