Search For the Cup

7/26/15 (26 is the gamatria of YHVH)

M dreamt that she was on a bridge over a river that wound through a small town. Many people had gathered on both sides of the bridge. They seemed to stare in awe of her beauty. M looked through the crowd to look for a familiar face. She saw an old friend from swim team, Amy Grace Hawthorn, who said, "Hi." She knew that if she was to marry a particular young man, she needed to find a specific cup. This cup was a simple green, plastic cup she used to use in real life. She traveled the length of the bridge searching, not walking but effortlessly floating. She reached the end of the bridge without having found the cup. Disappointed, she returned to the beginning and looked down to find it sitting just under a bush. It was there in the beginning. She picked it up. Next, creatures began attacking them. The bridge turned into a mountain, and the cup changed from an ordinary plastic cup to a beautiful glass vase. She held the vase while clinging to the side of the mountain. She woke up.


I believe that M is a picture of the bride of Messiah Yeshua. Water represents the Word. She so beautiful people were in awe, so perhaps this is after her transformation. She was not exerting any effort  to move, so perhaps it was by the power of Ruach haKodesh (the Holy Spirit) she will travel.

The cup itself reminded me of the cup found in Benjamin's sack in Gen 44:2. After Benjamin was found to have the silver cup (redemption) and the grain (the Word of YHVH), then Joseph revealed his identity to his brothers. Joseph is a powerful archetype of Messiah Yeshua. Remember he was dressed as a Gentile and his Hebrew brothers did not recognize him. We realize now that our Hebrew Messiah has been dressed as a Gentile so that the whole wold would be saved. The known world came to Joseph for grain. Grain is a picture of Yeshua, the Word made flesh who paid our penalty for sin and defeated death.

The cup was green. Green is primarily associated with life except in Leviticus. Rev 9:4 also came to mind.  "They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads"

Glass - would have been a highly prized material. See http://biblehub.com/topical/g/glass.htm

The meaning of the name of the young man is "victory of the people".

Amy - It is of Old French and Latin origin, and the meaning of Amy is "beloved". 

Grace is: From the word 'grace', derived from the Latin 'gratia', meaning God's favor. 
The name Hawthorn means "where Hawthorn trees grow". Hawthorn trees A hawthorn tree is a hardy, fruit bearing, flower growing tree that has been known to live for up to 400 years. The hawthorn flowers twice a year and from the flowers come the fruit. Each flower produces a seed, and from the seed, shiny red berries hang in clusters from the tree.

400 -The number 400, which is arrived at by multiplying 8 by 50, symbolizes in the Bible a divine perfect time period. It can also be viewed as 40 x 10. 40 generally symbolizes a period of testing, trial or probation. E. W. Bullinger lists the number 10 perfection of divine order.

Rotten Fruit

7-20-15  
DREAM

A few nights ago my daughter, M, told of a very short dream. She walked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a peach. She bit into the peach and discovered the inside was completely black.  - End of dream

The symbolism of rotten fruit is obvious. Our fruit is what we say and do. The mother of the house purchases and provides the food for the house. After speaking with a friend, she reminded me that symbolically, M's mother is not me. It is (was) the church. The fruit that the church is producing is rotten! Additionally, it is a caution for M to be careful of the spiritual food she eats.
