Although I had a
knowing that this dream was in England or Wales, I feel that what it says can
apply to those in many countries.
Please share as the
Lord leads, and God Bless you! Bev
There is an Army
General riding a horse, along with his mounted troops. They are on a ridge road
and the horses are walking. There is not a lot of vegetation by the side of the
road. His favorite mare is in the herd following the army and gave birth three
weeks ago to a fine colt (colt is a male, filly a female, and foal is either).
The servant of the
General runs up to the general as he is riding and says, “Sir, your mare no
longer has milk for the colt and the colt will die if it has no milk to
drink.“
The General was
beside himself to think that he would lose the “promised colt” that he had
waited so many years to have. The colt represented years of breeding fine horses
and his favorite mare was also his best mare on the farm, that he had to leave
behind when he once again joined the army.
The General told
the servant to check the other mares with the herd to see if any of them would
be able to take on / adopt another colt to feed. But the servant came back and
said that the other nine mares with foals in the herd were also drying up and
would have no extra milk due to the poor vegetation available.
The army rode by a
small farm. The general told the servant to go check with the farmer / owner if
he had any mares recently foaled, that they might use or purchase to feed his
colt? He was also to ask if the farmer knew of any other mares available to fee
the other nine foals, who would also soon be dead if not given the milk they
needed.
The servant brought
the farmer back to the general. The farmer said, I would be honored, Sir to care
for your fine colt and the 9 others, for my mare, “Castaway's” foal was just weaned and
she will have plenty of milk for all of ten of your foals until they are of age
to wean. You may leave the ten foals with me and my Castaway and she will feed and nurture
them all. We will take them into the hills to graze when they are old enough and
you can come back to get them when they mature.
Interpretations:
Total of 10 mares =
10 is the number for government / Body of Christ / the “Church”
Nine is the number
for the gifts of the spirit (Nine other mares with foals)
Lack of vegetation
by the side of the road, so that the mares were not able to produce milk to feed
their foals, is the lack of correct teaching in some areas of the church / some
churches.
Castaway represents
the remnant who others think nothing of, and in some churches these are the
grandmas and grandpas, who have seemingly been “put out to pasture”. But the “Castaways” are the Lord's Special
Forces, due to their hearts, special talents / gifts of the spirit and
and experiences.
A horse normally
has one foal, so to have twins is rare. But Castaway was going to be able to
feed and nurture all 10 foals, so that is supernatural provision, which only the
Lord can do!
Horse breeding
farms will generally during weaning time, put a “grandma mare” or a mare who has
had several foals and proved herself to be an excellent mother and teacher to
her offspring, in the pasture with a group that they are weaning. There are
several purposes / reasons for this. The grandma mare gives security to those
who have just “lost” their mothers through the weaning process. They aren't
going to freak out in the thunder storm as bad, because she is there, calm and
reserved or at PEACE. She teaches them survival, such as turning their
back/rear-end into the wind, rather than facing it. How to forage for food in
the winter, if there is snow / ice to dig through. She is wise and the foals
will generally follow her wherever she goes. So she is a very valuable commodity
to have in helping those babies grow into more mature yearlings.
Castaway was going
to be that “grandma mare” not only to feed all of them, but to nurture them, and
to help lead them up into the hills to graze when they were old
enough.
The General was to
come back when the foals were mature to pick them up. A horse is considered
mature at age 4, which means that it can then easier stand the greater stresses
in life of carrying heavy weights/ pulling weights, going on strenuous trips,
overcoming obstacles, etc. A 4 year old mature horse is equal in human years to
someone who is 20.5 years old.
So I believe we are
talking about the youth or anyone who is still young in the Lord and
drinking milk, that we need to rally the the grandmas and grandpas/
those with a true relationship with the Lord to teach them and to feed them the
food (Word of GOD) they need to grow into maturity. I believe God will give them
the supernatural provision they will need (mentally, physically, spiritually,
emotionally, financially) to overcome whatever obstacles that they find in the
way, because they have the experience, talents / gifts of the spirit and hearts
to help them become the mature lovers of Christ that we are all called to be.
