Intimacy and Cleansing

Dear Friend,
How are you? I’m well.
​
On October 7, 2020, I had a dream. It looked like a school dormitory. My room was quite spacious. It didn’t seem that I shared a room with any mate. And my sister played with water from a hose toward me with a doggie around us in my room. I said to her, “Stop it!” But she continued to enjoy shooting water toward my face from the hose. Then, in another scene, it seemed that I was in a playground in the school, half-naked. There were quite many people, and I felt so embarrassed. Then, I found a young white lady needed water for a certain place. So, I allowed her to use water from the hose from my room. When she pulled the long hose from my room to that certain place outdoor, the pressure of the water was so great that she was very satisfied with it. Later back in my room, I saw my sister taking a shower.

When I woke up, I thought I would understand what the dream meant, especially thinking along what I prayed the other night. But I also wanted to recall what the dream of being naked and the dream of shower or water mean so I looked up James Goll’s and John Paul Jackson’s books.
I found that what James Goll wrote about “Dreams of Being naked or Exposed” spoke to me much:
These dreams indicate that you will be or are becoming transparent and vulnerable. Depending on your particular situation, this may be exhilarating or fearful and could reveal feelings of shame. Note: these dreams are not meant to produce embarrassment but rather draw you into greater intimacy with the Lord and indicate places where greater transparency is required. These types of dreams often appear during times of transition where you are being dismantled in order to be re-mantled.[1]

The other night, I listened to Sister Margaret Seaward’s teaching, “How Should We Respond to God’s Love?” When I listened to one of her testimonies, I felt my heart literally poked. After I finished listening to it, I repented of my sins – such as negligence of unsaved souls, selfishness and jealousy. I also asked the Lord to remind me of the sins that I had not repented of yet. I have found it very interesting that the Lord would always give me (just like in this one) the dreams of my being naked, whenever I verbally confessed sins I had covered in my heart. Those sins were my wrong heart attitudes that I simply ignored and didn’t want to acknowledge. But when I verbally expressed in repentance the sins in my heart that He already knew, He gave me those dreams. I felt He wants nothing to be untouched between the two of us and me to be transparent.

Below is what James Goll wrote with regard to the Dreams of Taking a Shower:
These are cleansing-type dreams (toilets, showers, bathtubs, etc.) revealing things that are in the process of being flushed out of your life, cleansed and flushed away. These are good dreams by the way. Enjoy the showers of God’s love and mercy and get cleansed from the dirt of the world and its ways. Apply the blood of Jesus and get ready for a new day![2]
​
It also spoke to me much. I recently dreamed of flushing toilets. Then, I had the dreams of my being watered from a hose, seeing my sister taking a shower, and my giving water to another. In other dream, my friend sprayed water over my face. Before then and over the past few days, I had some struggles on some people I thought I had forgiven. The sore pains were reminded when I got some update on them. I got annoyed and thought of the incidents in the past. But I knew it was the enemy who wanted to torture me with the memory. So, I asked the Lord to cut off any evil ties from the past and surrender my heart toward them to the Lord. I continued to choose to forgive and bless them. Then, I felt the Lord wanted to cleanse the spiritual toxins and emotional waste related to them. Being cleansed, I would be able to water others, thus, I became a channel of His blessing in the dream, as I supplied water from the hose in my room to the young lady and made her happy.
I felt the Lord is a loving Father. He is willing to forgive us as soon as we confess and repent of our sins, and He wants to cleanse us with His love. 

Dear Friend,
Do you have any sins in your heart that you’ve not confessed to the Lord yet? I pray that you come to the Lord, asking forgiveness; that you become transparent and intimate with our Heavenly Father in Jesus’ name. Or do you have any pains from the past? I pray He may cleanse any spiritual toxins or emotional waste so that you enjoy His peace and joy in Jesus’ name.

Have a bliss!
Yunee

Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.  For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. (Hebrews 4:11~13)
